Herbal remedies for Parkinson disease

This question illustrates issues with using natural remedies for well defined syndromes (in this case Parkinsons disease). Here’ s the evidence: 1. A few natural herbs/supplements have been studied in Parkinson’s disease (PD), but the honest bottom line is: none are proven to slow or reverse PD, and evidence for symptom benefit is limited and inconsistent. The most important issue is safety and drug interactions 2. ⁠Some herbs have been studied that naturally contain L-DOPA, the active treatment ingredient commonly used to treat PD. Results have been mixed and it is impossible to figure out what doses are effective. Instead, L-dopa alone or in combination has been well tested as a MEDICATION in scientific studies for DECADES with well established dosage guidelines. I would much rather use a standardized medication (under physician guidance) instead of herbs for PD
