Rethinking Parkinson's: Addressing Root Causes with John Coleman
We need to go back to old-fashioned medicine... It involves choosing foods that will create health rather than disease.
What if Parkinson's disease isn't a distinct illness but a collection of symptoms with various underlying causes? In this thought-provoking episode of 'Pathways to Parkinson's Relief', host Robert Rodgers chats with John Coleman, ND, author of 'Stop Parkin' and Start Livin'. Coleman challenges conventional views on Parkinson's by suggesting it stems from multiple root causes, similar to other conditions like Alzheimer's, ALS, and Type 2 Diabetes.
He dives into how modern research supports the benefits of 'folk medicine' and 'old wives’ remedies' such as specific food choices, hydration, dancing, singing, gentle detoxification, and meditation. Coleman emphasizes the importance of looking at Parkinson's disease as a set of symptoms rather than a standalone condition. This perspective opens up a broader range of treatment options and encourages individuals to explore natural remedies and lifestyle changes.
Environmental factors and stealth infections also play a significant role in developing neuro-like disorders, according to Coleman. He advocates for detoxifying your home and using non-toxic substances to reduce exposure to harmful chemicals. Coleman also highlights the power of self-love and community activities like singing and dancing in managing symptoms and improving quality of life. Tune in to this episode to gain a fresh perspective on managing Parkinson's symptoms by treating their root causes and embracing holistic health practices.
