Mirapex Mountain Bike-o-Thon
Peg,
I find that to get away from the gambling and the risk-taking, the best thing is physical exercise. Every year I join the Mirapex Mountain Bike-a-thon to raise money for those who cannot afford agonists. And at the same time, we demonstrate that we can have fun in activities that do not involve risk-taking or danger, such as simply riding a mountain bicycle. Very good for your health. Here’s a photo of me in last year’s Mirapex Challenge: (attachment) |

[QUOTE=soccertese;932665]i'm taking american ginseng, natures way, from iherb, 550mg 50caps. it is a mild, short lasting affect. relatively expensive so take only 2caps/day rather than recommended twice a day[/
What symptom is temporarily relieved? Tremor, freezing or dyskinesia? I am at a wole foods and found only one American ginseng and you're right, it's pricey. I am looking specifically to fight tremors. I am shopping and happened to read your post while going down the supplement aisles. |

it's something i can take it or leave it, some research in mice showed ginsing gave neuroprotection. but i certainly could live without it. i only mentioned it because of the mental "boost" and maybe it might have a greater benefit for others, or none at all. |

for general info
There are three ginsengs available. There is red chinese which is processed by steaming and is supposed to be the strongest. It might worsen a tremor, BTW.
Second is the American variety which is a gentler cousin. And there is the Russian which is not a true gensing at all. All are considered adaptogenic which means they enhance one's ability to, well, adapt. I have a small patch of American growing just outside my window as I write. Originally plannned to retire on it. It is a lot harder to grow than it looks! :D |

Soccer these
Before I get arrested, I was just kidding (sort of) ! I have heard tat it really helps with pain management, but I have never smoked. Wouldn't it irritate the mucosal lining of the esophagus and cause another set of problems?
We need to formulate a spreadsheet identifying potential therapies and rate or at least list side effects or pros & cons. My guess is that someone here has already done this! Peg |
