Thanks for sharing your experience. I would think that if bentonite clay were so effective that it draws out systemic minerals, that it would also affect heavy metal accumulation. Since many people theorize that Parkinson's is due to either neurotoxic chemical exposure and/or heavy metal accumulation (or some other cause I am unaware of), then I would think it might have an effect on the progression of the disease, but not a decrease in tremors.

When you say it had no noticeable effects, perhaps your symptoms didn't decrease, but perhaps you're not taking into account the fact that rate of progression might have been slowed down due to a reduction of systemic heavy metals?
