Parkinson's Disease Education Podcast Michael Hyland, DPT, CEEAA

In this episode, we take a closer look at creatine and its potential role as a supplement in the treatment of Parkinson's Disease. Creatine, commonly known for its use in sports and bodybuilding, has shown promise in recent studies as a neuro-protective agent. But how effective is it for Parkinson's patients? Be sure to watch on YouTube for en enhanced experience!!

In this episode (video here on YouTube), we explore the potential of Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), also known as Ubiquinone, in the treatment of Parkinson's disease symptoms.
 CoQ10, a naturally occurring compound found in every cell of the body, plays a crucial role in mitochondrial function and energy production. Research suggests that individuals with Parkinson's disease may have lower levels of CoQ10 in their brains, potentially contributing to mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress.
 By supplementing with CoQ10, individuals may be able to bolster mitochondrial function, enhance cellular energy production, and reduce oxidative damage—all of which are key factors in the progression of Parkinson's disease.
While more research is needed to fully understand the role of CoQ10 in treating Parkinson's disease, the current evidence is encouraging. Join us as we delve into the science behind CoQ10 and its potential to offer hope to those living with Parkinson's disease.

Start here on Amazon to find supplemental CoQ10. This one is the best rated on Amazon and has a 4 month supply! https://amzn.to/4bnDER3

In this episode (watch on YouTube here), we delve into the powerful connection between the ketogenic diet, supplements, and their role in healing sick mitochondria, as well as their potential to treat Parkinson's disease. As mentioned in the previous video, mitochondria are often referred to as the "powerhouse of the cell", responsible for producing energy. However, when these vital organelles become dysfunctional, it can lead to a range of health issues, including Parkinson's disease.  The ketogenic diet, known for its low-carbohydrate, high-fat approach, has shown promise in supporting mitochondrial health. By reducing the reliance on glucose for energy and switching to ketones (increased ketosis), which are produced from fats, this diet may help to reduce oxidative stress and inflammation, both of which can contribute to mitochondrial dysfunction. Furthermore, certain supplements have been identified as potential allies in the quest for mitochondrial health. Join us as we explore the science behind the keto diet, supplements, and their potential to heal sick mitochondria and offer hope for those living with Parkinson's disease.

*For the BEST visual experience, I highly suggest watching this podcast episode on YouTube here.*
In this episode I do my best to break down and to simplify the cellular processes that result in abnormal aggregation of the protein alpha-synuclein in the nerve cells that produce #dopamine and how this leads to most of, if not all of, the problems caused by PD. In this video I reference this paper regarding the endo-lysosomal (E-L) pathway in cells, genetic links to PD, and how alpha-synuclein aggregates and what issues this causes: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6707858/
Please please consider reading this amazing book by Dr. Christopher Palmer, MD on the role of mitochondria in neurological diseases like PD! It is a MUST read: https://amzn.to/49eNbZs

In part 7 of the PD Medications, Purposes, and Mechanisms #miniseries we will be learning about Levodopa and Carbidopa/Levodopa as the Gold Standard medication for increasing levels of #dopamine that are needed to function and to keep movement symptoms (and non-movement systems) at bay. Here is the video version. Keep scrolling down to access the link to the Parkinson's Foundation page about Levodopa.
