* coconut and palm kernel oils naturally contained MCTs (Medium Chain Triglycerides). Metabolizing MCTs creates ketones. Recent research has shown that ketones help protect against [[Alzheimer's Disease]], Parkinson's Disease (PD), LS (Lou Gehrig's disease), Huntington's disease, Drug resistant epilepsy, [[Diabetes]]
* [[Coffee]] has been linked to prevention of Parkinson’s, [[Liver Cancer]] and type 2 diabetes.
* [[White Tea]] : Polyphenols in green tea protect your brain cells from Parkinson's. But you can do even better. White tea has more polyphenols than green. These are essential to protecting your brain from oxidative stress and damage. Not only that, but Parkinson's causes your neurons to die off over time. They control the release of dopamine, which helps keep your muscles stable. But polyphenols may directly protect these neurons.
* Eating an apple a day protects the brain from oxidative damage that causes neurodegenerative diseases such Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. This magical nutrient that acts as protection is quercetin, which is a phytonutrient.
* The key to preventing and reversing Parkinson's disease is to begin with an anti-inflammatory diet and lifestyle. This includes lots of clean water and phytonutrient rich raw and lightly cooked vegetables. Good fats such as avocados, olive oil, nuts/seeds and coconut products should be strongly encouraged. Healthy animal products such as grass-fed beef, bison, lamb, antelope, deer and free-range chicken, turkey and eggs are also good sources.
* [[Picrorhiza]] : the compound known as apocynin was first extracted from the Canadian hemp plant, (apocynum cannabinum) and used to treat heart problems and edema. Now, this little-known plant derivative is being isolated from the Himalayan herb picrorhiza kurroa, and is showing promise for prevention of Parkinson's.
* Herba Epimedii ([[Epimedium]] leaf) and Herba Cistanches (desert-living [[Cistanche]]) have the ability to protect nerve cells by regulating expressions of neurotrophic and apoptosis related factors.
* Vitamin B6: Japanese researchers found that lower levels of vitamin B6 in your diet increase your risk for Parkinson's disease by about 50 percent. Especially in people over 55 years old. An earlier study shows higher levels of the vitamin reduce their risk by 54 percent.
