    My Dad and I are always on the hunt to find treatments to ease his Parkinson’s symptoms. Lately, we’ve been impressed with Hempseed Oil because of its ability to calm his anxiety. And our success has me wondering about ways that others find support. Which alternative treatments have felt successful for you?

    I have had Parkinson’s for 11 years.  In November 2020 I started taking Mannitol, an FDA approved sweetener. It has been a game-changer.  A lot of my symptoms just disappeared.  I realize that since it is not a medicine it doesn’t attract pharmaceutical companies.  I no longer have an arm which hangs “dead”; my handwriting is legible again;my voice is stronger, etc.  Try it!
