Reverett. I already take curcumin as it's also goood for MS and I have avoided aspartame and MSG for about 20 years because I can't stand the taste of artificial sweeteners or the effect of MSG. I eat healthily although I don't avoid gluten and dairy.

Will look into alpha lipoic acid and acetyl-L-carnitine.

"There are two things that are proven to stop or even reverse PD. One is exercise and the other is caloric restriction."

I do yoga but don't have much energy for excercise. Caloric restriction? I am already quite thin and very depleted - how can that help?

Thanks for the advice...
