Children's Teeth Help Stem Cell Research
Experts say children's teeth might hold the key to effective treatments for diseases like Parkinson's disease and diabetes.
Children's teeth may be more valuable than a quarter under their pillow from the Tooth Fairy.

HEALING OF PARKINSON'S DISEASE THRU EXERCISE
Exercise plays a key role in the management of Parkinson's disease (PD). If done regularly, it may slow down the progression of the disease. It usually includes stretching, strength training and aerobic activities.

Isotope Biomarkers Reveal Protein Fingerprints of Brain Disease
Rational and exploratory biomarker discovery approaches through putative linkage with pathways relevant to neurodegeneration; Real-time indices of neuronal dysfunction and reparative processes; Ability to measure dynamic biological and biochemical processes occurring in neurodegeneration and to move quickly from animal studies to human trials.

Coffee could offer key ingredient for new treatments for Parkinson's disease
Caffeine is a methylxanthine, a stimulant derivative of xanthine, as is theophylline (in tea), and theobromine (in chocolate). Methylxanthines are among the most widely consumed substances in the world. Caffeine is present in many foods and drinks and reportedly consumed at an average rate of 200mg per day by Americans (Ref. 1). In 2000, the Journal of the American Medical Association(JAMA) published research showing a correlation between higher intake of caffeine and lower incidence of Parkinson’s disease, a devastating and incurable neurological disorder.

The Best Diet to Alleviate Insomnia in Parkinson's Patients
Common signs and symptoms associated with Parkinson's disease include tremors, lack of facial expression, muscle aches and constipation. Insomnia, notes a 2007 study by M.D. Gjerstad and colleagues published in the "Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery and Psychiatry," is a common complaint among people with Parkinson's disease, varies in severity over time and may be caused by numerous factors. Many people who have Parkinson's disease-related insomnia may also be depressed, note the researchers.

The ‘DRUMS ALIVE’ exercise
Research said drumming improves and increases the neurological connection between right and left brain hemispheres, releases tension, and eases stress. The synchronization of both brain hemispheres stimulates Alfa Brain Wave activity, which leads to higher levels of concentration, enhanced sensory and motor coordination, and an improved overall sense of well-being.

Parkinson's disease cant diminish their song
Fed up with her voice weakening because of Parkinson’s, 65-year-old Mags Blackwell decided to sing about it.
Part spirit-lifter, part exercise, part scientific experiment, the singing group Blackwell formed with a friend at Lee First Congregational Church works to mollify what one woman called an "invasive, elusive" disease.
