What if a simple supplement could help manage Parkinson's symptoms? In this episode of 'Pathways to Parkinson's Relief', host Robert Rodgers, PhD, dives into the promising potential of N-Acetylcysteine (NAC).

From balancing the nervous system to holistic approaches, there's a wealth of information for anyone seeking alternative ways to manage their symptoms. He introduces his new online course, 'What Really Matters', which delves deeper into these natural therapies and provides resources to help you navigate your journey towards better health.
Whether you're newly diagnosed or have been living with Parkinson's for years, this episode offers valuable perspectives and practical advice. Tune in to discover how NAC and other natural therapies might fit into your treatment plan, always in consultation with your healthcare provider.
