    Congratulations, great effort! Volevo condividere queste ricerche italiane: "New hope for patients suffering from Parkinson's disease. An innovative anti-neuroinflammation therapy manages to counteract involuntary muscle movements and reduce motor blockage. But other benefits concern the quality of sleep, paresthesias and mood, restoring a good quality of life. This is what emerges from a study conceived by Stefania Brotini, a neurology specialist and expert in degenerative diseases and sleep disorders, from the Empoli hospital, published in the international scientific journal CNS & neurological disorders drug targets From a molecular point of view, the neuroprotective role of the endocannabinoid system was highlighted, which has the ability to reduce the release of the excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate and the production of pro-inflammatory molecules - continues the expert - And in this sense ultramicronized Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA -um), an endogenous lipid molecule acts as a cellular balancer. Hence the idea of evaluating the exogenous administration of PEA-um, the ultra-micronized formulation of PEA in a group of parkinsonian patients. «The results were exciting, the dyskinesias were significantly reduced and there was also an increase in the duration of the dopamine effect - states Brotini - In addition to the classic therapy, in fact, Pea-um can act as an effective adjuvant to reduce involuntary movements or the duration of the motor block. It therefore reduces the side effects of the disease and traditional therapy and delays the course of the disease even in an advanced stage. In summary, the addition of ultra-micronized PEA demonstrated a notable improvement in motor symptoms, but also in many non-motor symptoms." It takes about two months to start experiencing the first beneficial effects of the PEA supplement, after which it is possible to evaluate a possible change in the daily dosage. Generally, as symptoms decrease, daily intakes of palmitoylethanolamide are also reduced. In general, for PEA it is not the daily quantity consumed that is so important, but long-term use; in fact, to fully exploit its potential, it is important to take it for a fairly long period of time.This is an ultramicronized PEA supplement, which is already on the market. Being naturally produced by our body, PEA is always well tolerated and we can take it in the form of a supplement to obtain benefits.

    Thanks to Michael, you are a kind person. There is a need for so much kindness. I hope that this natural instance named with an acronym PEA, discovered by Rita Levi Montalcini, can help you, there are positive experiments. "What emerged from the study is that, contrary to what we believed in the past, the neuroinflammatory process arises before the degeneration of neuronal synapses, which means that it is not the consequence as we believed in the past. Therefore the degeneration of Parkinson's is secondary to chronic neuroinflammation and not vice versa", explains the expert Stefania Brotini. This discovery has led to the study of lipid molecules that can play an essential primary role in combating chronic neuroinflammation. "Among these, ultramicronized Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA- um), an endogenous lipid molecule that acts as a cellular balancer and has the ability to be produced 'on demand' mainly by non-neuronal cells (mast cells, astrocytes and microglia), manages to counteract harmful phenomena affecting the central nervous system. Endogenous PEA counteracts the onset of neuroinflammatory phenomena through the inhibitory control of non-neuronal cells, i.e. neuroglia, when these are hyperactive" ... Ciò che è emerso dallo studio è che, al contrario di quanto credevamo in passato, il processo neuroinfiammatorio insorge prima della degenerazione delle sinapsi neuronali, il che significa che non è la conseguenza come credevamo in passato. Quindi la degenerazione del Parkinson è secondaria alla neuroinfiammazione cronica e non viceversa", spiega l'esperta. Questa scoperta ha portato allo studio di molecole lipidiche che possono svolgere un ruolo primario essenziale per combattere la neuroinfiammazione cronica. "Tra queste la Palmitoiletanolamideultramicronizzata (PEA-um), una molecola lipidica endogena che agisce da equilibratore cellulare e ha la capacità di essere prodotta 'on demand' principalmente dalle cellule non neuronali (mastociti, astrociti e microglia), riesce a contrastare i fenomeni lesivi a carico del sistema nervoso centrale. La PEA endogena contrasta l'insorgenza di fenomeni neuroinfiammatori attraverso il controllo inibitorio delle cellule non neuronali, cioè della neuroglia, quando queste risultano iperattive", spiega "Nuove speranze per i pazienti affetti dalla malattia di Parkinson. Un’innovativa terapia anti-neuroinfiammazione riesce a contrastare i movimenti muscolari involontari e a ridurre il blocco motorio. Ma altri benefici riguardano la qualità del sonno, parestesie e tono dell’umore, restituendo una buona qualità della vita. E’ quanto emerge da uno studio ideato da Stefania Brotini, medico specialista in neurologia e esperta in malattie degenerative e disturbi del sonno, dell’ospedale di Empoli, pubblicato sulla rivista scientifica internazionale CNS & neurological disorders drug targets. Da un punto di vista molecolare si è evidenziato il ruolo neuroprotettivo del sistema endocannabinoide, che ha la capacità di ridurre il rilascio del neurotrasmettitore eccitatorio glutammato e la produzione di molecole pro-infiammatorie - prosegue l’esperta - E in questo senso la Palmitoiletanolamide ultramicronizzata (PEA-um), una molecola lipidica endogena agisce da equilibratore cellulare. Da qui è nata l’idea di valutare la somministrazione esogena di PEA-um, la formulazione di ultra-micronizzata di PEA in un gruppo di pazienti parkinsoniani. «I risultati sono stati entusiasmanti, le discinesie si sono notevolmente ridotte e si è verificato pure un incremento della durata dell’effetto della dopamina - afferma Brotini - In aggiunta alla terapia classica, infatti, la Pea-um può fare da efficace coadiuvante per ridurre i movimenti involontari o la durata del blocco motorio. Riduce quindi gli effetti collaterali della malattia e della terapia tradizionale e ritarda il decorso della malattia anche in fase avanzata. In sintesi, l’aggiunta di PEA ultra-micronizzata ha dimostrato un miglioramento notevole dei sintomi motori, ma anche di molti sintomi non motori».

By the way, I have been living with Parkinson's for over twenty years. Four years ago I received a recumbent tadpole trike as a gift and started riding. The exercise in conjunction with medical cannabis have improved thee quality of my life and the lives of my family, my caregivers.

    I am a Scottish author who was diagnosed with Parkinson's four years ago. My next book, a charity book for PD, is about Parkinson's stories and I'd love an entry from the USA. This is what I am looking for. INTRODUCTION This book gathers stories from the Parkinson's community. With more than 40 symptoms, no two Parkinson’s sufferers seem the same. I decided to make this book a useful expression of Parkinsonian experiences. I have asked these questions to people with Parkinson’s Disease: What did you do before you got PD? Recall the moment you were diagnosed. Were you working at the time and, if so, did your work put in place any adjustments? How are you coping now? What can you still do? What can't you do now? Please finish your narrative (3 or 4 pages) with a section entitled CURIOUS FACTS about yourself or your experiences. Please send them to me at [email protected] and the book will emerge. Thank you to all who contribute. I can send you the four chapters | have already if you contact me. Thank you.

    As a person suffering from Parkinson's Disease I am absolutely thrilled at this good news. There are millions in the USA with this awful plague. No two people with PD have the same set symptoms. It's like a smorgasbord of symptoms and all we have right now are symptom relievers. No cure in sight. With the funding of more research perhaps we can find something before more people succumb. PD is on the rise around the world. Please help support PD research so we can find a cure for this disease.

    There are plenty of studies which indicate that endorphins play a role in enhancing the release of dopamine and we all know the role that dopamine (or the lack of it) plays in the symptoms of PD. Exercise promotes the release of endorphins and this, at least in some people, will lift your natural dopamine levels without the side effects levadopa/carvadopa. I'm 71 and was diagnosed with PD about 5 years ago. Since my diagnosis I've concentrated on resistance training and stead-state cardio (mainly brisk walking). Since I began a program which I've refined over the years, the progression of my symptoms has slowed markedly and my quality of life has improved. I'm now fitter and stronger than I have ever been. When I am unable to excercise for a period of more than a day or two I *really* notice an upturn in my PD symptoms. Another thing I discovered is that creatine monohydrate (suggested as protective in at least one study) has also made a huge difference, significantly improving my stamina both physically and mentally. Exercise is natural and (at least in my case) the single most effective mitigation against PD, at least at the stage I find myself on my PD journey.
