HEALING OF PARKINSON'S DISEASE THRU G-MEN (GOD, MEDICINE, EXERCISE AND NUTRITION)

As we approach the Feast Day of Blessed John Paul II on October 22, 2011, we are reminded that we are just six weeks away from the main event in the life of a Filipino with Parkinson's disease or a  PINOY PD, i.e, the "HEALING OF PARKINSON'S DISEASE THRU G-MEN (GOD, MEDICINE, EXERCISE AND NUTRITION), the First Annual Convention of Pinoy PD slated in Makati City on the same day.



For the past three weeks, I have discussed some of the gifts and fruits of the Holy Spirit by quoting the Scriptures from the Holy Bible. I have also tackled one of the medications commonly used as a first line treatment for Parkinson's disease which is levodopa based on its content, indication, dosage, administration, contraindication, special precaution, adverse reaction, drug interaction, preparation and price. I have also enumerated some of the benefits of regular exercise for the person with Parkinson’s disease, the general recommendations on how to get started, the  general safety measures as well as the target of an ideal exercise program.



As a fitting introduction to one of the key resource speakers in the upcoming event, I have requested Ms. Nona Lema, a vegetarian and meditation expert, to be my guest writer for the next 3 weeks. It will be a 3-part article series on "How Can A Vegetarian Diet Be of Help To PD Patients?"



The First Annual Convention of Pinoy PD aims to  impart a general knowledge on the diagnosis and holistic management of Parkinson’s Disease (PD) among Filipinos through G-MEN (God, Medicine, Exercise and Nutrition).
