According to Dr. Hinz the nausea is caused by an imbalance of dopamine and serotonin. Adding the serotonin precursor 5-HTP in the right amount solves the problem.
The site is technical in parts but worth studying. I've been on the protocol for a couple of years with no problems.
Of course, her insurance may not pay and there is frequent mixing of powder with almond milk, orange juice, or whatever, but the claim is that as much levodopa as needed can be taken without side effects and that the disease doesn't progress. So far, that's been true for me.
