Ok here is what I’ve put together from talking to my dad’s doctor regarding massive improvements in his symptoms of Parkinson’s and Lewy body dementia. Mental faculties, memory, mood, appetite, and tremors have all progressed significantly. This is my best interpretation and should not be taken as medical advice.

Lactulose
Lactulose is a laxative. Due to the nerve degeneration of Parkinson’s, the functionality of the bowels degrades and gut motility slows tremendously. There has always been a marked decline in condition during prolonged interruption of movements, with a similarly noticeably improvement after resumption. Can be taken orally and/or rectally. Other laxatives used are Natural Calm Magnesium, Senna Plus, Pure Body Institute Cleanse Purify Colon Program. Enemas can be used as needed. Cannot stress enough the importance of clear bowels no matter how uncomfortable a topic it is. My mother mentioned to me an expression she grew up with in Iran “If on the back of a horse and the need to go to the bathroom arises, do not wait to get off the horse to go.” Don’t hold it. I think this has been the most significant in immediately improving his state.

Probiotics
Pendulum Life Metabolic Daily
I’m not sure why she chose this one specifically, but it contains Bifidobacterium infantis which is known to be present in high levels in breast-fed babies, have heard many say it’s a very beneficial strain.

Mitochondrial enhancers
N-acetylcysteine (NAC)
Alpha Lipoic Acid
Acetyl-L-Carnitine
The doctor said these were the most important for improving neurological function. They manage mitochondrial dysfunction/increase mitochondrial biogenesis. NAC increases glutathione production and dopamine, ALA is vital for cellular metabolism, and ALC is has been used for Alzheimer disease, improving memory and thinking skills, treating symptoms of depression, and reducing nerve pain in people with diabetes.

Phosphatidylserine
Protects brain cells

MitoCore Protein Blend
Also contains NAC, ALA, and ALC, has been much easier to get my dad to take in a powder than lots of pills, and contains lots of minerals and other ingredients that I’m sure are helping my dad get better overall nutrition.

I think as with anything the first step is to get rid of the thing causing problems, and then work on healing. Remove the knife and then start treating the wound.
And for the love of God don’t let anyone you love take statins
