Parkinson's and the B1 Therapy

Publisher's summary

In 2011, the Italian neurologist Dr Antonio Costantini began treating his Parkinson’s patients with high doses of B1. As a result, their symptoms improved by up to 70 percent with no obvious progression in the disease over the five years he worked with them. Yet there is still a lack of awareness about this valuable therapy amongst doctors and Parkinson’s nurses.

This book is intended for people with Parkinson’s and their health professionals. It presents theories and hypotheses to explain the substantial effect thiamine has on the brain, discusses the available research which has studied the effect of high doses of B1 on Parkinson’s patients, and details the protocol, as we currently understand it, for patients and doctors who wish to use the therapy.

Parkinson’s is a degenerative disease and consequently there is a sense of urgency for neurologists, doctors, and Parkinson’s nurses to acquaint themselves with this therapy. This treatment is immediately available, relatively inexpensive and safe, and for many of us has improved our lives significantly.

Sadly, in 2020 Dr. Costantini died from Covid-19. However, his colleagues, wishing to continue his work, have designed a rigorous research project to understand more about the effect of high doses of thiamine on the Parkinson’s brain. This in-depth research is needed before the therapy will be adopted by mainstream medicine. The research team have, however, been unable to procure funding to start this important study.

This Has Given Me Hope!

This book was extremely informative and concise. It has provided a new outlook on life with Parkinson’s, not only for the person who has been diagnosed, but for family and caregivers, as well

Read this book if you have Parkinson’s!

My husband has Parkinson’s. I was researching clinical studies and came across information using high dose B1 for treatment. Since starting the B1 2 months ago, he is seeing improvement in energy level, mood, strength, and now beginning to be able to smell again…and basically “feeling alive” again. Now he is conversational, and laughs and smiles easily….so much different than before. We use the B1 in addition to using a Vielight device 3x a week. And of course his routine Parkinson medications. Overall he is doing much better than he was 1 year ago!….and that is pretty much unheard of in the Parkinson’s world!!

Excellent recording presentation and information

This book covered a therapy, not previously known to me. It is exciting to hear about some things so accessible that could help so many people with the disease and I will be telling as many people as possible about the therapy.

Hope, lessened PD symptoms, and something within easy reach will surely make a difference to a lot of people. Thank you for this book.

Very interesting and practical book

This book might change a lot of people lives. Hopefully it will also advance a serious medical study on this therapy

This protocol Book and FB group are great!

Bought this to help my best friend live her best life. Thank you for giving us hope!

Parkinson's and the B1 Therapy

This is a well written book, which is very practical and relatively easy to understand. I recommend the audio book. I listened to the entire audio book on Audible in 2 hours 15 minutes. Very useful if you have a tremor.
