    I get it out of the way first thing in the morning. Wake up, coffee and then off to do the workout. Reading this also motivates. This routine ensures I don’t talk myself out of not getting it in. Took me 4 years to keep it consistent though. I also have a major fear of digressing back to the fat sack I used to be

    Hey guys,

    Just have a few questions. I have found a good clinic on https://bookinghealth.com/ but need some advice from you.

    I’m curious, did you see any long-term effects from any of your trials? It sounds like they could’ve been testing for things like neuroplasticity with the memorization of strange numbers and things like that. Do you feel like you remember things more easily? Have you made any discoveries through the course of these trials?

    My grandfather, who is 85 and was diagnosed with Parkinson’s 10 years ago, is at the stage of falling a lot, hallucinations, and psychosis. After a bad episode of psychosis/dyskinesias 3 weeks ago, he agreed to try CBD flowers.  My family has said he has been calmer and less restless. I just visited him in Buffalo from Colorado for 2 days and he did not have any hallucinations (he even said “I haven’t seen anyone lately!”), no spells of dyskinesia and no psychosis. It seems like it’s working and what a relief for my family.

    I have read that “There are 3 forms of vitamin B3 — niacin (also known as nicotinic acid), nicotinamide, and nicotinamide riboside. All 3 are related and used by the body in the same way. As the body cannot store this vitamin, having a healthy diet that contains adequate vitamin B3 is essential. Fortunately, it is found in many different foods including turkey, tuna, cereal, mushrooms and peanuts. While much of the previous research into vitamin B3 in Parkinson’s has focused on the potential benefits of niacin, this research used the nicotinamide riboside form of vitamin B3. The new results suggest that this form of the vitamin may also have beneficial effects in Parkinson’s.” here are 3 forms of vitamin B3 — niacin  (also known as nicotinic acid, more on Canada Drugs Direct), nicotinamide, and nicotinamide riboside. All 3 are related and used by the body in the same way.

    You can know exactly only once you try it. It’s an individual thing. My mother in law was diagnosed with Parkinson’s back in 2000. She now lives with us as she’s deteriorating quite quickly over the last year. She is using the CBD tincture and it definitely makes her relaxed. We are pleased with results,better sleep more relaxed tremor on Left side of body better. But keep in mind that everyone has a different tolerance.

    If you take a small dose of medical cannabis at night, you’ll sleep through the high from the THC. But always take a little less than needed to see how it works and add more as you get an understand of how the medicine works with you. It’s an individual thing. Everyone has a different tolerance.

    I haven’t tried CBD personally, but I have joined the CBD Oil Users Group on Facebook.  They seem to have a lot of information.  I am really trying to learn as much as I can because I am interested in trying CBD Oil mainly for anxiety. Also here is valuable information
