Late diagnosis slows down drug research
Currently, the disease is only diagnosed when typical symptoms such as movement disorders already appear. At this point, however, the disease process in the brain has already been going on for many years.
“So we’re actually too late with the diagnosis, because many nerve cells have already perished,” says Kathrin Brockmann, study employee and head of the Parkinson’s outpatient clinic at the University Hospital in Tübingen. Active ingredients that prevent the pathological processes then only have a limited effect. This also makes it so difficult to find effective drugs for Parkinson’s disease.
With the new tests, new drugs could be used at a much earlier and therefore cheaper point in time.
The test works best with brain water, which can be obtained from the spinal cord canal. However, the researchers are also examining less invasive options by trying to detect alpha-synuclein in blood, skin and mucous membranes.

My husband who had been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease for 2 years at the age of 63 had all his symptoms reversed with Ayurveda medicine from naturalherbscentre. com after undergoing their Parkinson’s natural protocol. God Bless all Parkinson’s Caregivers. Stay Strong, take small moments throughout the day to thank yourself, to love your self, and pray to whatever faith, star, spiritual force you believe in and ask for strength. I can personally vouch for these remedy but you would probably need to decide what works best for you.
