Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects dopamine-producing neurons in the brain. The disease is characterized by a progressive loss of muscle control leading to bradykinesia (slow movement), rigidity, resting tremor, and postural instability. As symptoms worsen, it may be difficult to walk, talk, and perform simple tasks.
Glutathione, pronounced (gloota-thigh-own), is a molecule produced by your body that acts as a critical antioxidant, ridding your body of free radicals. Research has shown free radicals can damage your body’s cells and lead to aging and illness. Glutathione helps maintain cellular health, controls inflammation, and keeps the immune system
