Research shows promising results for PS128 in Parkinson's disease. In a small study of 25 people taking PS128 alongside their levodopa treatment:
• Participants reported improved motor function
• They experienced a 16.8% improvement in akinesia symptoms (difficulty initiating movement) PS128 contains Lactobacillus plantarum, a beneficial bacteria found naturally in some fermented foods. While early results are encouraging, it's important to note that more research with larger groups is still needed to fully understand PS128's benefits for Parkinson's symptoms.
Before starting any probiotic supplement, including PS128, be sure to discuss it with your healthcare provider to determine if it's appropriate for your specific situation.
