I wonder what this is? Clearly some type of anti-inflammatory, which would lend credence to Dr. Blaylock's (and Rick's!) theories they put out long ago.
This would help explain why PWP do better when taking an antibiotic for something else, most antibiotics are anti-inflammatory and perhaps that action aids in PD symptoms as well. I especially like the part where they just throw in that it can be taken in a pill and crosses the BBB! Thanks for posting this |

These guys are playing coy with this while they try to figure out how to make a buck off it. There are a dozen or more candidates that get past the BBB and calm down the microglia. My own favorites include turmeric and green tea extract.

\I am with Rick on this. Funny how alternative therapies that lay claim to "curing" a multitude of disease are scoffed at by the scientific community. Yet, they claim pretty much the same with some vague anti-inflammatory that works in a multitude diseases and this is somehow legit?
