I don’t see any evidence that there is a connection with reduction of alpha-synuclein aggregation. Serrapeptase can have nasty side effects, particularly nausea and vomiting, blood clots, and more, from what I researched so far. Serratia maracescens is red bacteria and is very toxic to humans, so it’s surprising that an enzyme coming from this bacteria would be used as a supplement. The body doesn’t necessarily react well to everything we put in it. Ironically muscle cramps and pain are also possible side effects of serrapeptase and it’s mainly used to treat pain and inflammation from what I’ve seen.
Very informative! Although my head is swimming a bit! 😂 Looking forward to the next video... as I'm very interested in hearing about the diet aspect helping the cells. How do I find out if my Parkinson's is genetic or, as I believe, is linked to my chemo & radiation from breast cancer treatment?
Hey Cheri! Thanks for the feedback. And I understand about the head spinning 😂. You can get genetic testing for the specific PD related genes to see if there is truly a link there, but honestly it really doesn’t change anything. What is discussed in this video also applies to those who do not have genetic links to PD
Thanks Michael. Looking forward to your next video. As for the negative comments, thank them for their participation. They add to your views and benefits your positive numbers. It is possible that you actually taught them something.
Thanks for commenting Tom! I should thank the negative people too as it does help to get seen on UA-cam. It’s definitely important that they learned something, that’s what it’s all about
Hello there! Thanks for the question. There currently is no drug that will reduce alpha-synuclein. The key to reduction in alpha-synuclein is to enhance mitochondrial health and healing. That can be accomplished through lifestyle changes such as ketogenic type diets or other forms of anti-inflammatory diets that reduce oxidative stress. And supplements may also help with this. Some examples might be CoQ10, NAD+, Nrf2, and glutathione plus NAC.
This Dr. Spends his personal time to educate those of us with PD! I learn something new EVERY VIDEO. Obviously you must be a Board Certified Neurologis specializing in PD.
Your entire comment was perceived as rude, because it sounds like you think you know everything already. If this information is not new to you then move on. There are a LOT of people that don’t know this information already
The tremor in thumb and index finger sounds like what is called “pill-rolling.” I am not looking at it, so it’s hard to say for sure. It certainly could be a Parkinsonian tremor, though it may be benign essential tremor. Are there any other signs other than tremor?
🤔 Certain positions you say. Typically Parkinson’s tremor is constant and only slows down or stops with specific intentional movements, like gripping tightly. I’m not sure in your case. Any other medical conditions?
@shaikezazulhaq essential tremor is very likely vs Parkinson’s based on how you described it. If you can, I would consult with a neurologist to confirm
PQQ supplementation is helpful to mitochondria. Google NIH to see an article referencing this. Before you rush off to take it read further about glutathione reduction as a result of PQQ and how adding NAC to supplement glutathione production should not be combined with PQQ.
@@parkinsonsdiseaseeducation I developed thyroid eye disease after some certain vaccinations switched my thyroid from Hashimoto's to Graves disease. There was a study done on rats, they induced thyroid storms & reversed with PQQ, so I hammered it and got reduction of symptoms & antibodies in 30 days- at 5mg/kg dose. Research the part about it reducing glutathione, etc and not combining with NAC - simple version is some fallout. Also being used in some cancers.
Does SERRAPEPTASE work for this protein accumulation?

Hi Michael this was very informative thank you. I've read that Intermittent Fasting can improve our Autophagy would you agree?
From what I’ve learned, yes that would be the case
Very educational, thank you
Glad you found this helpful. Thanks for watching and for your comment!

Good job!!!
Thanks! You have it watched it yet have you?? It will be able to be watched Saturday! Hope you’ll be there for the premiere
Have you done a video on high level B1 on PD ?
No, but that’s definitely on the list!
how the drug reduces the aggregation of alpha synculein

Is creatine a worthwhile addition to improve mitochondrial health ?
Absolutely. I plan to go into supplements in the next video and some ways to improve mitochondrial health. I really appreciate your question!
What ease is NEW, tell us somethink we dont KNOW
So, you assume everybody with PD already knows all of this? If you know it already then why are you here watching?

Thanks for the support. Some people just can’t avoid leaving rude comments.

Excess stress and anxiety cause Parkinson disease
This is just one potential cause of cell damage in Parkinson’s Disease. It’s not something that can be easily predicted.
nothing new
I guarantee you, for some people this is new information.

Thanks for mentioning this, I was not previously familiar with this supplement!
