Members discussing good foods for Parkinson's shared a lively mix of practical diet tips and humor, with one member describing a 10-year journey of tailoring their diet to include homemade muesli, soaked almonds, walnuts, berries, bio yogurt, and raw sauerkraut while avoiding sugar as much as possible. A recurring theme was that Parkinson's is highly individual, so finding what works best for your own body matters most, whether that means cutting red meat, sourcing local quality meats, or keeping dairy in the mix. Several members connected warmly over cultural food traditions like Pennsylvania Dutch pork and sauerkraut, with the conversation highlighting that good nutrition can also come with joy and community.

Thom as you point out, "If you've met ONE person with Parkinsons Disease, you've met ONE person with Parkinsons Disease" It is very much an individual disease.

Back to the Sauerkraut. Pickled sauerkraut cooked with pork, or sausage, and served with a pile of mashed potatoes. Mmmm. My Pennsylvania Dutch Grandma made it often. Still one of my favorite things at 82.! Also it is good for the gut flora. Pat
