If you want to have a rational discussion about the HINZ protocol and discuss the scientific merits of the papers of the papers presented by those making likely millions from selling their supplements i'll gladly participate. i'll start by saying these papers are written by people with a financial stake in this treatment and no independent researcher has ever duplicated their results. so you expect anyone to accept their findings without some reservations?

Everyone on this board is anonymous, there is noone verifying if a poster is being honest or dishonest, has pd or doesn't have pd, is working for a drug/supplement company or not. What I saw here was a newbie asking for advice on an unproven pd treatment, backed up by studies conducted by those with a vested interest on selling this treatment and none by independent researchers, which at least to me makes this research highly suspicious, a non-pder just by chance shows up on this board and starts hyping this treatment yet doesn't know anyone with pd who has used it much less has benefitted from it. The newbie starts the procedure and gets support from this non-pder who as far as i know knows noone who has pd. And you wonder why i'm just a little skeptical about motives here?

To repeat, if you want to debate each paper mentioned here and all the claims about the HINZ protocol, i'm more than willing. The purpose the this board i hope is not to blindly accept as fact everything posted here, especially when a treatment costs as much and is difficult to follow as the HINZ protocol, as controversial and when other members posts about the HINZ treatment complaining about the significant price increases in 40% MUCANA.
I find it just a little interesting that their treatment requires you buy this MUCANA from them, hey, isn't that something drug companies do? And jack up the prices?

I posted on this thread not because i have a knee jerk reaction against alternative treatments, i have a knee jerk reaction about some poor pd'er possibly getting ripped off and ending up worse.
