This 16-minute Presentation gives an overview on High Dose Thiamine (B1) therapy in Parkinson's Disease and explains why this therapy holds a high potential as an intervention to modify the course of Parkinson’s Disease. It goes through Dr Costantini’s research work, ending with the plan to confirm his preliminary findings through a Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo Control Trial (RCT).

    Thanks a lot. The Dr. Constantini will never be forgotten; i am sure that the doctor's work will have the worldwide recognition it deserves.

    I have been taking 400 mg of TTFD, 600 mg of Benfotiamine and 600 mg of HCL religiously daily for three months now and I have noticed zero improvement in my shaking hands, slouching posture, slow movement or immense fatigue. I am bummed out about this, but I am not giving up. Going to continue. Fingers are crossed.

    Although many allopathic doctors say that PD has no cure, functional doctors give hope to people suffering from this neurodegenerative disease, they say that every disease can be cured because our magical body is made to heal and repair any disease.
  • PLEASE NOTE THAT THE MEGADOSE OF THIAMINE HCL APPEARS AS A SUCCESS BUT THERE IS NOT A SINGLE VIDEO OF A PERSON HAVING OBTAINED RESULTS BY INCREASING THE CONCENTRATION OF TTFD, BENFOTHIAMINE, AND OTHER THIAMINE TYPES THAN THE WATER SOLUBLE THIAMINE HCL!

    What is the status off double blind study? IMO and others in medical field..open studies w no control are pretty worthlessness and impossible to read without considerable of placebo effect
  • “Types of Parkinson’s Symptoms Symptoms of Parkinson’s vary by the type of parkinsonism and between individuals. An individual with Parkinson’s will not necessarily experience all or even most symptoms. Parkinson’s is a progressive disease, which means that symptoms worsen gradually over time, new symptoms appear, and disability accumulates. Motor Symptoms Everyone with Parkinson’s experiences symptoms related to movement, known as motor symptoms. In early stages of Parkinson’s, motor symptoms are typically unilateral — limited to one side of the body. Motor symptoms are the hallmarks of parkinsonism, and the condition cannot be diagnosed without them. The most common motor symptoms of Parkinson’s include: Bradykinesia (Slowed movement) Tremor Rigidity Loss of balance Other motor symptoms of parkinsonism include: Stooped posture Shuffling gait Dystonia (repetitive twisting, swaying, or head-bobbing motions) Painful muscle contractions Muscle jerks or twitches Freezing episodes Mask-like facial expression Decreased blinking Softer, slurred, or mumbled speech Speaking in a monotone voice Drooling Dysphagia (difficulty swallowing) Micrographia (small handwriting) Slowed or abnormal eye movements Eyelid spasms Difficulty opening the eyes Nonmotor Symptoms Many people with Parkinson’s experience other types of symptoms in addition to motor symptoms. Cognitive Symptoms According to studies, about 40 percent of those with Parkinson’s eventually experience cognitive difficulties. Cognitive changes, often referred to collectively as “cog fog” or “brain fog,” can include problems with memory, attention, processing information, finding the right words, slurred speech, learning and remembering new things, organization, and getting lost in familiar places. Psychotic Symptoms Between 20 percent and 40 percent of people who take medications for parkinsonism experience a loss of connection with reality known as psychosis. Psychosis can either be caused directly by the disease or as a side effect of treatment. Psychotic symptoms can include: Visual hallucinations Delusions Paranoia Irrational fears Flashbacks Nightmares Sensory Symptoms Decreased sense of smell is very common and often among the earliest symptoms of Parkinson’s. Approximately 96 percent of people newly diagnosed with Parkinson’s show a loss of sense of smell. Some people with Parkinson’s experience vision changes, including blurred vision, double vision, loss of sensitivity in the perception of color and contrast, and visual hallucinations. The sense of taste may also be affected by parkinsonism. Mood and Personality Changes Parkinson’s and medications for the condition often cause changes in mood and can affect personality traits. Psychological symptoms of Parkinson’s can include: Depression Anxiety Anger Irritability Jealousy Increased or decreased interest in sex Impulsiveness Compulsive behavior Other Symptoms Fatigue is common in Parkinson’s. Fatigue may not be caused directly by Parkinson’s, but stem from other symptoms, including motor difficulties, sleep problems, and depression, or be among the side effects of medication for parkinsonism. Problems with sleep are widespread in people with Parkinson’s. Sleep disturbances are the most common sleep symptom, but insomnia, restless legs syndrome, nightmares, and difficulty turning over in bed are also experienced. Orthostatic hypotension is the scientific term for feeling dizzy when you stand up. It is a common symptom of Parkinson’s – experienced by 20 to 30 percent of those with the condition – and can lead to faints and dangerous falls. Orthostatic hypotension is a result of low blood pressure either due to nerves damaged by the disease or as a side effect of Parkinson’s medication. Orthostatic hypotension usually happens within three minutes of standing. This symptom is more likely the older you get and the longer you have Parkinson’s. Gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms, especially constipation, are among the most common Parkinson’s symptoms. Bladder dysfunction is common in Parkinson’s. As many as 50 percent of those with advanced Parkinson’s report overactive bladder. Pain in Parkinson’s disease comes in many varieties. Although Parkinson’s is not widely considered a painful disease, it can cause muscle pain from cramps and repetitive movements, neuropathy (nerve pain, or pins-and-needles numbness sensation), shooting pain such as sciatica, or a sharp, burning pain. Pain usually occurs on the side of the body most affected by Parkinson’s symptoms. It is common for people with Parkinson’s to experience sexual dysfunction. Parkinson’s causes lowered libido and difficulty orgasming in both sexes. Motor symptoms can also make physical aspects of sex problematic. In men, Parkinson’s leads to erectile dysfunction and ejaculation problems. In women, decreased arousal, vaginal dryness, and pain with intercourse occur. In about 1 percent of people with Parkinson’s, medications cause hypersexuality — compulsive sexual behavior. People with Parkinson’s are four times more likely to develop melanoma, a dangerous type of skin cancer. Those who have had melanoma are four times more likely to develop Parkinson’s.” Hi!
