How does one glass of wine once a day effect PD symptoms? My first neurologist encouraged me to continue enjoying my daily glass.

Everything in moderation, providing it does not react with your medication!

Interesting. My current neurologist prohibits all alcohol, saying it makes PD worse.

My movement disorder specialist did the same and said if I were physically larger even 2 would be ok as none of my meds would interfere .
