Grip on Parkinson's Blood Testing Basics
For this test, please stop any use of supplementation 4 days before taking the blood. You must also be sober for the blood draw.
This blood test is part of the Grip on Parkinson's program. This program lasts six months. You go through 5 modules completely digitally. You are guided through the program via a low-stimulus portal on slimvitaal.nl. On this portal, you can find all kinds of practical tools, tips and background information and ask your Parkinson's coach. As you go through each module, you will receive explanations and instructions in the form of videos, checklists, etc.
Based on the results of this blood test and a number of questionnaires, you will receive personal advice in which, step by step, you will do more and more to combat the underlying causes of Parkinson's disease. The advice is mainly about nutrition, exercise and stimuli to improve the resilience of your body. This is also supported by a digicursus.
Parkinson's is a metabolic disease arising from a multitude of causes. A major component is the insufficient absorption of important nutrients. In all cases, therefore, supplementation is necessary to supplement the deficiencies of certain necessary substances (vitamins, minerals, etc.). Based on the above analysis, you will receive a personal recommendation on which supplementation you need.
A more extensive blood test is also available, which includes measuring brain mineral levels. Brain minerals are an area of concern in most adults, and in Parkinson's people, any deficiency could be an easy win for certain problems.
