200 mg/day for 3 months.....

So far, no change.

What brand, etc.

I'm taking Holy Basil Extract 500mg for a few months but have not been regular on my daily intake.

I do not mean to sound sarcastic but..... I have heard these same claims for the past 15 years. Guess what? Sinemet is still the "golden child" where PD is concerned. L-dopa was discovered 53 years go. Many have tried and failed. All I am saying is do not get your hopes up too high. It could be a while yet.

This also helps with muscle wasting.

Labrada Nutrition 4 capsules 2x a day.

Probably like a lot of other rats out there, trying not to do anything stupid, but realize waiting for medical science to converge on a disease modifying therapy is a long way off.

Lots of "lotions and potions" out there. The research on ursolic acid, while sparse and preliminary, does have a few positives :

1. Effectivness NOT based on rats or mice but real human PD cells. The bad news they were in a dish not a body.
2. Already approved by FDA in higher concentrations for gall bladder /liver disease.

For me, risk vs reward looked okay.

I understand others might see this differently.
