Thanks for posting this Gary,

As Zlatica says this makes perfect sense. Her transformation is dramatic, isn't it.

I don't think I can eat that much in one day - can a healthy diet and vit./minerals supplement work does anyone know?

1.Do a google search for mitochondria and Parkinsons there is a huge scientific effort going on regarding mitochondria, look at the number at the number of publications!
I have a feeling there will be good news for us very very soon!
Also grass fed meat=venison to me. I have started eating venison and the other veggies,
Interesting how we do not eat much protein because it interfeers with uptake of sinemett and the disease progresses
