John Coleman’s new book, Rethinking Parkinson’s Disease, is to date the most thorough exploration of the etiological pathways (causes) leading to diagnosis with Parkinson’s disease or similar neuro disorders.
This is the replay of my interview with John on Parkinsons Recovery radio last Saturday
John explains how and why trauma, toxins and stealth infections create symptoms diagnosed as a “disease” such as Parkinson’s and responds to a number of questions submitted by listeners of Parkinsons Recovery Radio.
A surprising number of persons diagnosed with Parkinson’s have spent their entire life caretaking others rather than taking care of themselves. Friends and family alike become familiar with the “always available and reliable” caretaker of the family who is too often you!
Since caretaking is such a huge issue for persons traveling down the road to recovery, here are critical rules of caretaking to always keep close to your chest.
Always – day in and day out – give to yourself the same care and attention that you give to others. This is the number one rule for a reason. Most caretakers violate it all the time.
You are not an endless resource for others to take advantage of anytime of the day or night. When you are not taking good care of yourself, you can be of little help to others. Why?
Your energy will deplete.
Your health will deteriorate.
You will resent taking care of others.
Your needs will be different from your family and friends.
You do not need to feel guilty about saying “no” to requests for assistance.
 Taking time for unwinding is time well spent. How do you best unwind? (Note the question is not how should you unwind or how do others unwind.) What helps you relax, chill out and have fun? Do it.
Not occasionally.
Every day.
You are not being selfish by taking time every day for yourself and only yourself. If you do not take time out of every day for yourself, you will do a lousy job when you are caretaking family and friends.
In summary, once a caretaker, always a caretaker. The recommendation here is simple: Just be a top notch caretaker of yourself.
The big picture: Light Therapy has the potential to address constipation.
Parkinson’s symptoms originate in the gut.
Heal gut issues and symptoms will begin to resolve
Do you have constipation? The constipation must be reversed for you to get relief from symptoms. There are many potential remedies for constipation. Most therapies infuse the gut with one form of probiotics or another. Certain foods can also promote healthy bacteria in the gut.
Light therapy may also offer the possibility of infusing the gut with good bacteria. No need to take a probiotic supplement here!
Animal Studies find that light therapy promotes healthy bacteria in the gut. If this happens with animals, I am guessing humans will achieve similar results.
Many of you have been using the X-Plus Vielight light therapy to address symptoms such as memory impairment.. The class encourages you to apply the X-Plus on your gut once a day in addition to applying the light to your mid brain.
If you do not have an X-Plus device, information is available on the Vielight website:Â https://www.vielight.com.
If you decide to acquire one, be sure to tell the customer representative you are a Parkinsons Recovery member. The will apply a 10% discount. If you order the device from their website, the 10% discount will be applied on the shopping cart if you enter the coupon code healing4me.
The company gives you 6 months to try out their devices. If it does not offer symptom relief, you can always return the used product for an 80% refund. The risk is minimal.
Question: Why are my Parkinson’s symptoms worse during the Pandemic?
Answer: An epigenetic change in your physical body which was most likely set in motion during the first years of life. Unrelenting stress for a new born child results in “stress methylation.†A specific chemical molecule has attached itself to the on/off which is a part of every gene.
With stress methylation, the gene whose job it is to shut down the continuous flow of cortisol is deactivated. Since the switch is permanently “stuckâ€, we find ourselves as adults in an unexplained spin of worry, dread, anxiety and fear.
Since this anxious state is familiar as ingrained from the first year of life we do not really have any effective tools to un-stick the off/on switch.
All this means we can be instantly “triggered†and “set off†by the most innocuous experiences and stimuli. The recent events have been anything but “innocuous .”
Watch this wonderful BBC news explanation about the effects these stressful times are having on all of us. The link below connects to a 2 minute news video that explains why your symptoms have likely become so much worse over recent months.
Studies now conclusively demonstrate that EMFs (electromagnetic fields) – which we are all exposed to – causes a wide range of illnesses including neuro-degenerative conditions like Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s, autism, infertility, unwanted genetic mutations and even cancer. This is the health crisis of this century.
Most people do not take this problems seriously. Effects are not immediate nor are they felt by most people. They are cumulative.
EMF effects scramble the energy field which derails normal functions. Studies show that a modest exposure to smart phones clogs up blood cells. Blood transforms into cells that stick together like globs of jelly of different shapes//
Why is this a problem? Blood cells that stick together cannot pass through the small capillaries of the body which feed 75 percent of the cells. The size of the globs is too great to pass through the tiny passageways of capillaries.
Are you perplexed because your detox problem is not showing the results expected? There is no way toxins will be eliminated from the cells if your circulation cannot access them. One factor could well be your continuous exposure to EMFs.
In this video I emphasize one small step you can take to reduce EMF exposure from one source: your smart phone. Do not put the cell phone against your ear when you talk. Use headphones (not ear plugs and certainly not a blue tooth).
Dozens and dozens of natural therapies have been discovered that help reverse symptoms of Parkinson’s disease. I want you to know about several little known therapies in particular.

Results of the 2019 Holiday Parkinsons Symptoms Survey
Results of the 2019 Parkinsons Recovery Survey that asked about Parkinsons symptoms replicated results from previous annual surveys.
Bottom Line Result: Parkinson’s is not degenerative.
I asked members of the global Parkinsons Recovery audience who currently experience the symptoms of Parkinson’s to report how they were doing relative to one year ago. Here is the question:
Since last holiday season in 2018 have you been feeling better, the same or worse overall?
One hundred and five (105) individuals responded to the survey. If you happen to buy into the false belief that Parkinson’s is “degenerative” people should report feeling worse with each passing year. They will not report that they felt better or have been feeling about the same as last year.
More explicitly, if Parkinson’s is in fact “degenerative” the following results would be reported:
Number feeling better – 0
Number feeling the same 0
Number feeling worse- 105
Only such a result would confirm the false belief that Parkinson’s is “degenerative.” This false belief is never qualified: Everyone is “expected” to be worse off. Isn’t this what you have been told?
This was not – I repeat not – the result of the 2019 Parkinsons Recovery survey. Sixty four percent (64%) of the respondents reported that they were either feeling about the same or better than a year ago.
Number feeling Better – 19
Number feeling the same – 49
Number feeling worse- 37
Isn’t this result exciting news?
I also asked respondents to list any and all therapies that helped them feel better. Dozens of natural therapies were reported to help reverse symptoms of Parkinson’s disease. I want you to know about several in particular that were reported to have been helpful so I shot videos about a few of them.

New breakthroughs by CTFO in the science of CBD oil have resulted in the development of new CBD products that significantly increase its penetration with a resultant beneficial impact on symptoms. Several short videos have just been posted on the new CTFP website that explain this new discovery. https://parkinsonsrecovery.myctfo.com/
What is the difference between CBDa and CBD oil? CBDa is a precursor to all CBD products. It is extracted from the hemp plant, more potent than CBD and more effective.
Why isn’t Everyone Taking CBDa?Â
It is actually available only from CTFO. When CBDa is exposed to heat – it de-stabilizes. Researchers recently succeeded in stabilizing CBDa so that it does not lose its potency. CTFO has the patent on this process. Their CBDa products are called “10X Pure”.
If you have discovered CBD offers relief from your symptoms, I recommend that you investigate the new 10X Pure products if you have not already done so.
CBD Research
Clinical research on CBD (cannabidiol) includes studies of anxiety, cognition, movement disorders, and pain. A listing of the studies is posted on the Parkinsons Recovery website below. Quite a few of the listed studies were published as recently as the last calendar year and even in 2019. Clearly, researchers have been finding excellent results in their studies.
If you decide to explore this option there is no risk involved. CTFO gives a full money back refund if taking its CBDa does not offer symptom relief. Simply return the used, empty bottle within 60 days to receive a full refund.
Since 2004 I have been documenting natural therapies for Parkinson’s disease that offer relief from Parkinsons symptoms. These discoveries have inspired the following conclusions:
Dozens of natural therapies are effective in reversing Parkinsons symptoms
No therapy helps everyone.
This week I administered a survey asking members of my global audience to report what natural therapies offer relief from their symptoms. Results re-confirmed my conclusions:
There are a surprising number of natural therapies that offer relief.
No therapy helps everyone.
Everyone discovers a unique set of therapies that work for them.
One respondent from Australia reported they had not tried any natural therapies. Is this also the case for you?
May the following summary of responses serve as an inspiration to try one or more of the natural therapies reported in this Parkinsons Recovery Survey.
Responses to the Parkinsons Recovery September 2019 survey are reported next. Informational resources that relate to the therapies reported to have been helpful are also included in this post.

Do you currently experience periodic or chronic pain?
Are you currently taking a medications that have proven to disappoint expectations?
Have you set an intention to reduce a dependency on opiates and other pain relievers?
I have exciting news for you. A new CTFO product is available as of this week which has been formulated to address the struggles of people who experience chronic pain. If your answer to any one of the three questions above is yes, please take 3 minutes to watch the video posted on the CTFO website.
Like most opiates the newly formulated 10XPure 1000 Gold CBD product CBDA is a COX-2 inhibitor which leads to the relief of pain and swelling. I recently heard a presentation by neurologist Stephen Trobiani who predicts that this new product development may well offer a welcome solution to anyone who suffers from persistent and chronic pain and is interested in avoiding opiates as a solution.
Of course we have no evidence at this point on whether this new product discovery will offer sustained pain relief, but I believe it is worth taking seriously and investigating further. The company – CTFO – that developed it is one that I have no hesitation in recommending. They are a first class act.
For more information on CBDA (and how it differs from CBD) visit:
Now – a big reason I have no hesitation with a recommendation that you consider trying a new product for which we have no solid feedback yet is that CTFO offers a full, 60 day money back guarantee. Return the used, empty bottle within 60 days after purchase and receive a full 100% refund.
If you decide to give this one a try, please let me know the outcome!
Most people with Parkinson’s symptoms have a serious glutathione deficiency. Nasal sprays have been helpful to some people. Intravenous infusions have helped others. A new discovery reveals that glutathione can be made in the gut with the help of an enzyme called Lactobacillus fermentum ME-3.The Probiotic ME-3 Makes Glutathione in Your Gut
Natural Pharmacist Ross Pelton discussed the critical role of Glutathione for people who experience Parkinson’s symptoms during a recent radio show interview. The ME-3 new product development he discussed is previewed below.
Probiotic Research
Probiotic research is fast transforming our understanding of human health. Probiotics in general are invaluable for maintaining good health. We’re also learning we need certain strains that produce highly specified health benefits.
One of these strains is Lactobacillus fermentum ME-3. The startling probiotic breakthrough of ME-3 began in 1995. That’s when award-winning microbiologist Marika Mikelsaar, MD, PhD and her team of research scientists isolated the probiotic strain called Lactobacillus fermentum ME-3. This unique strain is able to produce the super antioxidant glutathione. Since then, Dr. Mikelsaar has dedicated herself to researching the numerous benefits of how the revolutionary probiotic ME3 makes glutathione in your gut.
What’s so Important about Glutathione?
Perhaps you’ve heard of glutathione. Every cell in the human body uses glutathione to maintain cellular health. Scientists call it the “Master Antioxidant” and it’s absolutely vital to:
Maintain a healthy immune system
Support the health of cardiovascular tissue
Promote healthy liver function
You need healthy glutathione levels. Research indicates that it breaks down during digestion. That’s where ME-3 comes in. You supplement with the ME-3 probiotic which produces the glutathione levels needed for optimal health. It’s a new paradigm.
The body makes the glutathione. It passes through the blood brain barrier because it is recognized as produced by body rather than injected from an outside source. May you enjoy learning about this discovery as much as I did.
What Is In A Name?
The brand name Reg´Activ® was created from the words “Active Regeneration. This expresses what occurs when the patented probiotic Lactobacillus fermentum ME-3 remarkably produces and recycles Glutathione, the Master Antioxidant resulting in higher levels of active glutathione functioning in the body for a longer period of time.

Click the arrow below to hear an interview with Vielight’s CEO and inventor Dr. Lew Lim who discusses his new X-Plus photobiomodulation device invention.
I want to make sure everyone knows about its availability in light of success with the previous Vielight Neuro Gamma device. First, I will offer a brief report on user’s experience with using the Neuro Gamma device which is why I am excited about Dr. Lim’s new invention – the X-Plus.
Neuro Gamma Device
Over seventy (70) members of my Parkinsons Recovery audience purchased and used
the Vielight Neuro Gamma device over the past year. The exciting news for me has been that it was one of the most frequently mentioned therapies reported to be helpful in responses to my 2018 Holiday Survey.
Vielight representatives tell me that only 1 out of 10 units were returned for an 80% refund. Nine out of ten users found the device to be beneficial. My conclusion: The Neuro Gamma has helped most – but not all users. Odds of success are clearly in your favor.
X-Plus
The new X-Plus Vielight device can be used in conjunction with the Neuro Gamma to irradiate the posterior brain with light. If you are already getting good results with using the Vielight Neuro Gamma device. consider using the X-Plus along with the Neuro Gamma. It just might provide a welcome boast to symptom relief.
The X-Plus can also be used as an independent device. The great news of the day is that the cost of the new X-Plus device is half the cost of the Neuro Gamma. It is listed as $749. The company has again agreed to offer members of Parkinsons Recovery a 10% discount on the X-Plus (as they did for the Neuro Gamma). To claim the discount enter the coupon code healing4me on the shopping cart. If you call in your order, simply tell the representative you are with Parkinsons Recovery.
I have no hesitation encouraging as many of you as possible to try the new X-Plus Device out. How come?
First, the Neuro Gamma has been a success. I am betting the X-Plus will follow suit. Dr. Lim is an amazing inventor.
Second, the company offers an 80% refund for any unit that is returned within six months of use. This gives you time to see if the therapy will prove helpful. The financial risk of trying it out is minimal since you are assured of getting 80% of your investment back.
More information about the new X-Plus Light Therapy device can be found on the Vielight website:
Can-C eye drops reduce inflammation which is the primary cause of many chronic eye diseases.
Having difficulty seeing clearly because of cataracts?
Concerned about being able to pass a vision test for a driver’s license?
Prefer to avoid cataract surgery?
If so, you need to know about Can-C eye drops. They are a natural eye drop formulated by researchers that clears cataracts for nine out of ten users according to the research studies. Here is my interview with a representative of Innovative Vision Products Jennifer Jones who answers all of my questions about these eye drops.
Studies using humans as subjects find application of Can-C cataract eye drops as recommended reverse cataracts for 90% of subjects studied who apply the drops as directed (a total of 4 drops a day).
Can-C does not show results for 100% of people, but odds of success are certainly in your favor.
It takes time to see results – an average of 3 months.
It gets inflammation in the eyes under control so the body can reverse the cataract naturally.
I have been getting feedback on these eye drops for two decades and can confirm that approximately 90-95% of users are pleased with the outcome. This is why I have no hesitation letting you know about this natural option.
In summary, if cataracts are an issue for you and you prefer to side step surgery check out these eye drops by visiting this secure website: https://www.can-c.me
Here is a list of questions about natural therapies for Parkinson’s disease that I addressed in the Q&A today:
What symptoms does the supplement 5htp address?
Is CBD oil recommended as a therapy for neurological symptoms?
Is it safe to take if I am also taking Parkinson’s medications?
I have tightening in muscles in my arms and shoulders which
makes it difficult to breathe while walking. Has anyone had success
dealing with this problem?
I am taking mars venus superfood with minerals and detox lemonade. Has anyone had success with this protocol?
Had anyone ever tried near infrared saunas with any success for Parkinson’s symptoms?
Please explain and compare the advantages of three therapies:
1) Electromagnetic Pulse Therapy
2) Photobiomodulation
3) Biontology
I have problems sticking with a program of recovery that is helping me
feel better. Have you witnessed this type of cycle? Please provide insights
in how to getting past this.
Why does Parkinson’s progress in many Parkinson’s patients? Is it psychological or is there an underling disease mechanism at play?

What follows is a marvelous suggestion from a member of the Parkinsons Recovery audience from India. She reports that lentil spouts helps offer relief from her symptoms and sent the following set of easy to follow instructions for sprouting lentils.
Germination / Sprouting of Lentil called MOONG DAL WHOLE in my country India
Soak 1 cup Moong Lentils overnight in water. It is enough for one person’s diet for 3-4 days.
Drain the water next day & leave wet. Cover with wet cotton cloth if whether is dry. Rinse with fresh water in the evening.
Second day rinse again with fresh water twice a day morning and evening. Now u will see white roots coming out. Start consuming 5-6 teaspoons as soon as sprouting begins.
Third day rinse again with fresh water twice, the roots will be little longer. Can consume again morning and evening.
Fourth day repeat rinsing. The roots are 1 inch long. It is the best full of healthy nutrients. Enjoy morning and evening.
Repeat again for next four days.
Raw sprouts are the best. U can steam for 5- 7 minutes for a different taste. Add finely cut onions, tomato, green chillies, coriander/cilantro, lemon/lime     juice, salt & turmeric for a different taste.
Sprouts act both as Prebiotic and Probiotic and are better than pre-probiotic capsules.
Raw sprouts are just like cashews in taste so also i enjoy them eating raw.
Please note-
Sprouts are best if consumed raw.
The best thing is they increase metabolism ( digestion and absorption) of food in our bodies with many more benefits.
Sprouts contain many good quality vitamins and minerals and in addition contain many phytonutrients unknown to me, you, dietitians and doctors.
NO SUGAR and sugar products please.
I think and am sure Sprouts will certainly make life of parkinson’s patients better.
She recommends that sprouts should be taken empty stomach in the morning for better results. Eat breakfast after 2 hours if possible.
A potential therapy for addressing symptoms associated with a diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease is CBD oil which is now legal in all US states and some countries. CBD stands for “cannabidiol oil”. It is extracted from either the Hemp plant or the Marijuana plant. Using CBD allows the medical benefits of medical marijuana without the high that is associated with THC. CBD in itself has no psychedelic properties and is considered safe for consumption
Should CBD oil be a therapy worth your consideration?
What do we know about the use of CBD oil as a therapy for addressing symptoms of Parkinson’s disease?
The 2018 Parkinsons Recovery survey reveals that some people experience relief from their Parkinson’s symptoms when taking CBD oil. It was one of the top therapies reported to be useful. Still, not everyone experiences relief from their symptoms. Why might this be the case?
1. A first possible explanation for why some people do not experience symptom relief is that the concentration of CBD oil they took was insufficient. Research using patients diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease finds that subjects who took a minimum of 300 mg showed improvement while those who took 75 mg showed no improvement.
A 2014 study on the effects of cannabidiol (CBD) in the treatment of patients with Parkinson’s disease published in the Journal of Psychopharmacology examined results forTwenty one (21) subjects assigned to three groups of seven subjects each. One group was treated with placebo, one group with cannabidiol (CBD) 75 mg/day and one group with CBD 300 mg/day. One week before the trial and in the last week of treatment subjects were evaluated with respect to motor and general symptoms score (UPDRS) and well-being and quality of life (PDQ-39).
Despite the tiny sample sizes, groups treated with placebo and CBD 300 mg/day had significantly different mea total scores in the PDQ-39 (p = 0.05). Significance is very much a factor of sample size, so this result is striking in itself.
Does this mean you would be best advised to order a 300 mg bottle of CBD oil? That would not be the best choice. You would be better offer getting a bottle with a higher concentration – as much as 1500 mg. Why?
A bottle with 1500 mg has a total of 1500 mg (and a bottle of 300 mg has a total of 300 mg). You are not taking 1500 mg (or 300 mg) with each serving. How much are you getting when you take the recommended number of drops?
Investigate how many servings are contained in a bottle. If a 1500 mg bottle contains 50 servings, then you would be taking 30 mg with each application.
A serving may be listed as 10 drops (or 6 drops). Early reports from users have suggested to me that you might be able to take fewer drops than the recommended serving. This should especially be true for the CTFO10X pure spectrum CBD oil which has just been released. Laboratory testing shows it has ten times the penetration.
In summary – you should be able to pay much less in the long run by getting the higher concentrations of CBD oil. And keep in mind that if you cannot find a serving that helps – return the empty bottle for a full refund (within 60 days after purchase).
2. A second possible explanation is that the concentration of CBD in the oil they took was less than the concentration they thought they had purchased. Some CBD oil companies claim they are selling a bottle with a 500 mg concentration of CBD when only 50 mg or less is actually contained in the bottles. As a new product that shows promise for addressing many conditions , some companies have seized the opportunity to make a quick profit by selling a product that contains little of what is advertised.
3. A third possible explanation is that CBD will not offer relief from the symptoms of some people. No therapy helps everyone. CBD oil is no exception. Based on informal reports from members of the global Parkinsons Recovery audience I have observed that more people experience relief from their symptoms when taking CBD oil than those who do not.
My conclusion: CBD oil is worth trying out to see if it helps offer relief from symptoms. Acquiring CBD oil from a company like CTFO that certifies its contents through laboratory testing and offers a full money back guarantee is a choice worth taking seriously. You can try an entire bottle of CBD oil. If it does not offer relief from your symptoms, CTFO guarantees a full refund of your purchase. You only need to return the empty bottle within 60 days.
Many people inquire what concentration of CBD is best. The higher the concentration, the less needs to be taken for results to be experienced. Although the higher concentrations cost more, cost savings over the long run should accrue.
This is the third in a series of investigations about the impact of dehydration on the prospects of recovery from Parkinson’s symptoms. In a Parkinsons Recovery Radio show interview, naturopath doctor John Coleman discusses the importance of taking Aquas for the success of his own personal recovery from Parkinson’s disease. In a recent post here on the Parkinsons Recovery blog, Jaraslov Boublik PhDanswers questions about hydration in general and the implications of dehydration for the prospects of recovery.
This post constitutes third in this hydration series which features a Q&A with Leonie Hibbert who is a co-developer of the Aquas along with Dr. Boublik. His previous discussion prompted questions from members of my audience who listened to my interview with him. In this interview, I ask Leonie Hibbert the questions from listeners which are listed below.
How do I know I am dehydrated?
What are symptoms of dehydration?
I drink water all the time but I am still thirsty all the time. Why is this?

Would it help to increase the number of drops I take every day? Isn’t more better?
How did you determine what ingredients to include in the bottles?
If I am a man – can I take the female Aquas or vice versa?
If someone is very ill, can they take this homeopathic remedy and if so, how many drops should they take?
What are the side effects of detoxing from getting better hydration?
How do you know the Aquas work?
How long does a bottle last?
Why can’t I solve the problem of dehydration by simply drinking more water?
Why do so many people with Parkinson’s symptoms take Aquas?

I just saw an announcement about a $5 trial bottle of ketone ester in my own email today. Early reports on the ketone ester for addressing Parkinson’s symptoms have been very encouraging. Can it help you or your loved one? You will not know until you try it out.
Today is a golden opportunity to find out if taking the new ester will offer relief from your symptoms. The ketone ester company linked below is making available a trial bottle of ketone ester for only $5. I would suggest you get two bottles. One may not be sufficient to see it if helps. You will need to take to entire contents to see if it helps. Visit the website below to order:
P.S. They only have 200 bottles to sell and the offer is open for today only. As a new therapy, we have little evidence on this. But, the early reports tell me it is worth giving it try for sure.
