This study tests whether a special blend of probiotics (good bacteria), an amino acid called tryptophan, and branched-chain amino acids can help slow the progression of early-stage Parkinson's disease. The idea is that these supplements may work through your gut bacteria to help protect your brain.
This trial tests if taking daily amino acid supplements helps people with Parkinson's disease. You need to be on stable Parkinson's medication for at least 3 months.
This trial tests whether a Mediterranean diet can help people with Parkinson's disease. You would either follow your usual diet or switch to a Mediterranean diet for six months and provide blood and stool samples.
This study looks at how changing to a Mediterranean-style diet might affect gut bacteria in people with early Parkinson's. It aims to find early signs of the disease and see if diet can help.
This study looks at how diet and the bacteria in your gut (microbiome) affect Parkinson's symptoms. You'll work with a coach and take cooking classes to see if changing what you eat can help you feel better.
This study tests an online Mediterranean diet program for people with Parkinson's disease. The goal is to see if it can improve health and quality of life by encouraging a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and healthy fats.
