RHR: A Functional Medicine Approach to Parkinson's Disease

In this episode of Revolution Health Radio, Chris discusses Parkinson’s disease and what we can do to address its rising prevalence in modern society. He’ll provide a better understanding of the mechanisms, signs, and symptoms of Parkinson’s disease, as well as cover some of the underlying causes that contribute to it. He also talks about steps you can take to lower your risk of getting Parkinson’s disease in the first place or potentially slow the progression of the disease if you already have it.
In this episode, we discuss:
3:48 What is Parkinson’s disease?
7:08 Eight underlying factors of Parkinson’s disease, including gut dysfunction, gluten, autoimmunity, blood sugar, iron overload, circadian disruption, stress, and environmental toxins
25:31 Thirteen diet and lifestyle changes you can adopt to help prevent and treat Parkinson’s disease, including eating a nutrient-dense, whole foods diet, giving up gluten, getting enough vitamin D and omega-3s, considering a ketogenic diet, attending to your gut health, reducing your exposure to toxins, adopting a regular sleep rhythm, taking botanicals and supplements, reducing stress, getting more exercise, and using phototherapy, low-dose naltrexone, and medical cannabis.
