Yes, some MyParkinsonsTeam members have tried PS128! One member reported taking both probiotics and prebiotics containing PS128 and found them helpful for upset stomach and balance issues.

In a small study of 25 people with Parkinson's disease who took PS128 alongside their levodopa treatment, participants reported improvements in their motor function. They experienced a 16.8% improvement in akinesia symptoms (difficulty initiating movement). While these early results are promising, it's important to note that more research is needed with larger groups to fully understand PS128's benefits. If you're interested in trying PS128 or other probiotic supplements, be sure to discuss this with your doctor first to determine if it's appropriate for your specific situation.
