also important.

Subject: Dietary

guidelines for Parkinson's?

Does anyone have any suggestions for dietary guidelines for

dealing with Parkinson's. There is some degree of gastroparesis, so we

understand there should be smaller meals and less fat, but then, we'd been

doing that anyway!!

Thanks!

Fava beans are good..

Here is a list I have from my files.

Parkinsons and diet

Foods to Eat

Spelt (made as congee): Spelt has been used as an adjunct in the treatment of many disorders, including Parkinson's.

Fruit

Vegetables (especially leafy greens)

Vegetable juice (especially carrot)

Seaweeds

Sprouted grains

Raw seeds (such as sunflower and pumpkin)

Foods to Avoid

Chemicalized and processed food

Coffee

Caffeinated tea

Sugar

Tobacco

Eat a well-balanced, high-fiber diet. Maximize your intake of fresh green vegetables. Green leafy vegetables, rutabagas, sesame seeds, and sesame butter are good.

As much as possible, buy organic fruits, vegetables, and grains to minimize your exposure to pesticide residues.
