My guest today is Dr. Laurie Mischley ND who will be discussing her exciting research program and discoveries as they pertain to Parkinson’s disease. The focus of her work is on describing conditionally essential nutrients in Parkinsons disease (PD), attempting to describe the nutritional status and requirements unique to individuals with neurodegenerative diseases.
She has published on coenzyme Q10 deficiency in PD, completed her masters thesis on lithium deficiency in PD, and is currently completing her doctoral dissertation on glutathione in PD. In 2013, she and her team completed a Phase I Safety & Tolerability Study of Intranasal Glutathione in PD.
Dr. Mischley is a clinical research assistant professor at Bastyr University, where she is principal investigator of other PD studies including, CAM Care in PD and Cannabis in PD Tremor.

Doing the same things the same way day in and day out dig deep ruts into the same, tired neural pathways. Our neurons get rutted and cluttered with debris. Symptoms flare.
What can be done? Existing neurological pathways can be cleared and cleansed or we can create new pathways. Either approach reduces or eliminates symptoms.
The most expedient approach is to pave new pathways which means our habits have to be transformed. How can this be accomplished? Answering this question has been the focus of my research over the past year. Two opportunities are available to explore the possibilities.
First, natural methods to create new neural pathways can be explored which is the focus of my Jump Start to Recovery course.
Second, I discuss a variety of exciting methods for creating new neural pathways during this radio show. All of my suggestions embrace natural approaches.
Sel Kerans discusses his new book, Leading the Dance: Living well with Parkinsons Disease, and his own journey on the road to recovery in an open, conversational expose of a five year journey with Parkinsons disease and the experiences that have inspired the writing of a book that may be helpful, motivational and encouraging for others, especially those newly diagnosed with the condition.
His book has been dedicated to the late Robin Williams and is about overcoming adversity, staying positive and content; focusing on healing, recovery and living well. Leading the dance with an unwelcome stranger called Parkinsons disease. Sel discusses:
What hurdles have you faced?
How have you overcome them?
Would you consider yourself recovered from Parkinson’s disease?
Do you believe it’s possible to recover completely from the symptoms of Parkinson’s disease?
You mention in your book some reluctance with medication – what’s been your approach to taking medication over the five years?
What resources have been useful for you in learning about alternative approaches to managing the symptoms?
Can Parkinsons disease be prevented or even reversed? Current medical treatments have been able to ease the symptoms, but none can even come close to being called a cure.
While a complete cure may not be available at this time, there is a treatment that can slow down, stop, and even reverse many of the symptoms of the disease. This treatment does not rely on drugs, surgery, or any medical treatment. It is based on diet.
The key element of this diet is coconut, more specifically, coconut oil. A coconut oil based diet has proven to be highly effective in stopping and reversing a number of neurodegenerative conditions including epilepsy, Alzheimers, ALS, and Parkinsons.
This radio show celebrates the tenth anniversary of Parkinsons Recovery which was founded in 2004. Ten years of research into the factors that cause the symptoms of Parkinsons Disease and the therapies that help reverse them have revealed ten secrets into what it really takes to reverse the symptoms.
These were all secrets to me 10 years ago so it is a good guess they are secrets to you now. All are revealed in this radio to celebrate 10 years of offering support and resources to persons who currently experience the symptoms of Parkinson’s disease.

Holistic Health Practitioner Barbara Frank discusses how she came to realize that Parkinson’s disease is a result of many factors. The main factor according to her empirical findings is a parasite that eats away the nervous system and critical neurons in the brain.
