All-natural L Dopa Health Supplements To Treat Parkinson’s Disease
There are over 1.5 million Americans who have been diagnosed with
Parkinson's disease. And every year, an additional 60,000 more are diagnosed
with this disease. Parkinson's disease is a disease involving the brain. It
usually affects people who are above 65 years old. But then 15 percent of this
1,5 million are people below 50 years old. Back in 1817, Dr. James Parkinson
discovered this disease of the brain in one of his patients. According to Dr.
Parkinson, the disease will affect people in such a way that he will have loss
of balance, tremors, stiffness and slowness or movement. All the above mentioned
symptoms need not be present. If only two out of the five symptoms are present,
it is still adequate to diagnose Parkinson's disease. Parkinson's disease places
both men and women at risk, no distinctions. Sadly, there is no way you can find
out if you will get this disease in the future.
When a part of the brain called substantia nigra is impaired, the result
can be Parkinson's disease. Substantia nigra is responsible for the production
of dopamine, a substance which is responsible for the smooth coordination of the
muscles of the body. If 80 percent of the substantia nigra dies, it will result
in the lack of dopamine in the brain, and thus, Parkinson's disease will be
manifest. If the brain does not produce dopamine, the body will stiffen and
quiver. With the introduction of dopamine to the brain, you will not be able to
treat Parkinson's disease. The dopamine introduced would not be able to cross
the blood brain barrier. However, L dopa, a synthetic form of dopamine has shown
wondrous results. But it is not an effective treatment in the long run because
the brain gets immune to L dopa. A leguminous plant growing in Africa and India
has been reported to contain natural L dopa. mucuna
powder is the scientific name of this leguminous plant. For the treatment of
Parkinson's disease, mucuna pruriens and reishi
powder can work like magic.
In order to increase the levels of
testosterone in the body, mucuna pruriens have been used by generations of
Indian men. It is currently being sold by online stores as a way to treat
patients with impotence and Parkinson's disease. Prolonged usage of mucuna
pruriens is not dangerous and is still very effective, unlike with synthetic L
dopa. The user would not be able to feel any side effects with the use of mucuna
pruriens, unlike with the synthetic form of L dopa. Many doctors are now
including Mucina pruriens as part of conventional treatment for Parkinson’s
disease. It is available online and so people from all across the globe can have
access to this amazing medicinal plant.
