Hello William, as a 6-year friend of someone with PD here in Bulgaria (with Young Onset PD) I was fascinated by the level of expertise you displayed in your 16th February 2018 video. I have never seen a professional discuss PD in such open terms. The exercise of entering into the proposed trial is presumably only open to someone in the US. Nevertheless, if an opportunity to learn more from you and your carefully thought out trial is available. then I'm sure my friend would be overjoyed to receive such help.
Hi student, The protocol is basically what I have tried to do for several years. I can't go back nine years to when I started this and switch to a plant based diet. Intermittent fasting is not a diet. It does not prefer plant or animal. The only thing I say about diet is to avoid carbs and excess protein and eat fats in the morning. I think this protocol could easily be followed on a number of diets based on religion, (Kosher, Halal, Mormon, Seventh Day Adventist etc.) or health restrictions. If you or someone you know is a person with PD, then I am certain you could do this "protocol' and remain vegan. You just need to find plant based fats that mimic grass fed cream or butter. This is why I suggest that the trial have a nutritionist that can address concerns such as yours. I don't think we will have a vegan alternative in the first phase of a clinical trial, but if you want to work with a doctor on adjunctive therapy I think you can try it without the cream or butter and perhaps take a little more coconut oil. Let me know if you try this for PD.
This seemed to be more about diabetes than parkinson's?? Please correct me if I'm wrong. I've been w parkinson's since July 2015 and type 1 diabetic since 1969, October. To add a bit of fuel to the fire I became a t-10 paraplegic at exactly 7:30am, January 29, 1992. So where or what else can they throw at me???
Scott, I would love to talk. I don't have the bandwidth to give out my contact information. We could chat in this thread, or you could watch for upcoming support groups where I might give a talk in Maryland. I will be at the World Parkinson's Congress in Barcelona in July. I have a poster. If anyone wants to drop by the poster session. I am not a medical professional. My training is in biochemistry which I perceive makes a lot of what I say hard to follow. I am sure I would learn a lot from hearing about your experience and I look forward to connecting with you soon. Hang in there Scott! I wish you all the best. Check out my playlists for now.

Does your arm hurt wearing the libre sensor because of your parkinsons symptoms?
Can you revise the protocol? There have been numerous studies on a different diet protocol, Whole Foods plant based.

Hi Bill, i live in Maryland, have had PD for ~12 years, and would love to talk to you about your 0:33 experience. Is there a way i could contact you?
