I find energy drinks ( Powerade/ Gatorade ) help me when I need to do a project around the house. I usually start drinking it an hr before I start the project and regularly through the project

You have to stay active to avoid fatigue. Force yourself to take a brisk walk, or do some other type of exercise you like to build up your energy level. You can’t sit around and watch TV all day, and then wonder why are you fatigued. I walk at least two miles every morning, do stretch exercises, and go to gym three times per week for 60 minute Rock Steady Boxing classes. Staying active provides you energy and keeps you going.

Juicing has helped my father immensely!

We juice organic carrots, watermelon, apple, celery. He has much more energy after that

The problem he is faced with is the gastrointestinal burning with constant dosing of Senimet. Does anyone have the same side effects?

I feel like PD meds are so incredibly hard on the body. My dad is only 72 year old and has aged to appear as though he is 90 year old. It’s so horrible to see him suffer this way. All PD docs know what to do is prescribe more meds!

One other treatment we are doing is L-Glutithion. This incredible antioxidants is deficient in PD patients. It helps aid the liver in detoxification and can reduce PD symptoms by 40%. We got a prescription and my sister is a nurse. They have to be administered via IV.

I have changed my diet. I eat anti-inflammatory foods. No cheese no dairy no red meat no pork. I went gluten free drink water and Gatorade and tea. I stretch every day rest when my body tells me it's time and I keep moving just slowly and with a happy attitude. I go out side in the fresh air and take deep breaths and enjoy nature with my dogs. And I put my bare feet in the dirt and feel alive again

When I’m in the off mode , I can’t even imagine going for a walk. Taking a shower is like climbing my Everest. It bothers me when people say exercise will help. If I can’t even shower or get out of my PJs what they suggest is so unrealistic. I would love to have the spark of life it takes to exercise. If I did I’d be cured
