Abstract
- The article offers information on Parkinson's disease (PD) and its treatments. It states that PD is a chronic and progressive disease, and occurs when dopamine-producing cells in the substantia nigra of the brain die. It relates that 5-hydroxytryptophan and music therapy are treatments with good scientific evidence. It also mentions other therapies for PD as revealed through unclear or conflicting scientific evidence including acupuncture, caffeine, and lecithin.
