If you live with Parkinson’s disease, you’re naturally terrified of it getting worse.
And who can blame you?
Losing control of your body is not just scary… it can also take away your independence.
But now, you could put those fears to bed.
Researchers have discovered a plant compound that could DEFEAT Parkinson’s disease.
And it’s found in something you might already have in your fridge!
A new study found that a compound called farsenol could prevent and even REVERSE damage linked to Parkinson’s disease.
Farnesol is a naturally occurring compound found in many foods, including berries.
And according to the researchers, farnesol puts the brakes on Parkinson’s by going to the root cause: the loss of dopamine-producing neurons.
As you may already know, Parkinson’s is caused when your brain loses the neurons that produce dopamine.
Dopamine is responsible for relaying messages between your nerve cells, but when it plummets, you get Parkinson’s devastating effects on your nervous system… including confusion, loss of coordination, and tremors.
When researchers tested farnesol on the brains of mice who had Parkinson’s disease, they found that it blocks a type of protein called PARIS.
PARIS has been linked to Parkinson’s before… in fact, it’s often found in high levels of Parkinson’s patients. And when it gets to high levels, it gums up the works by slowing down the production of PGC-1alpha, a compound your neurons need.
But farnesol cuts off PARIS before it can cause this deadly chain of events… leaving your vulnerable neurons protected.
The bottom line? If you suffer from Parkinson’s disease, find a way to get more farnesol into your diet.
Berries are a good place to start, but you can also get farnesol from peaches, tomatoes, and corn.
You can get farnesol from chamomile tea as well, and it can also help you relax and get a good night’s sleep.
