Carbidopa is a class of drug called decarboxylase inhibitor that inhibits the conversion of L-dopa to dopamine outside of the brain. It also irreversibly binds to and permanently deactivates the active form of vitamin B6 in the body. Vitamin B6 is required for the function of over 300 enzymes and proteins in the body in almost every major system.
Carbidopa is associated with an incredibly long list of side effects. Interestingly, the side effects of carbidopa encompass all the symptoms associated with the progression of Parkinson’s disease. In fact, recent research has suggested that carbidopa may be responsible for the progressive neuro-degeneration associated with Parkinson’s disease as well as a dramatic 328% increase in the death rate due to Parkinson’s disease since the drug was first released.
Luckily, people that suffer from Parkinson’s disease no longer have to rely on a “cure” that may be worse than the cause.
We have developed a comprehensive program to target the underlying causes of Parkinson’s disease. Optimizing neurotransmitter function is at the cornerstone of this approach and when properly administered, can reduce and in many cases completely eliminate the symptoms associated with Parkinson’s disease.
