Prehistoric Superfood REVERSES Parkinson’s

When it comes to Parkinson’s, the sad, honest truth is that we don’t have a lot of answers.
No cause… no cure… nothing.
And if you’re living with the stiff, tight limbs and endless tremors that accompany the disease, you know how frustrating that can be…
How powerless it can make you feel…
But no more.
Because groundbreaking new research out of India has just revealed that a powerful (but weird-looking) green powder can SOOTHE your worst Parkinson’s symptoms… RESTORE your mobility… even help you LIVE LONGER.
And it’s been around since before humans walked this earth.
I’m talking about spirulina.
This prehistoric blue-green algae predates human life by millions and millions of years, and researchers just put it to the test in a way you might not expect.
In a new study published in the Journal of Dietary Supplements, scientists simulated how spirulina might aid Parkinson’s patients by giving it to fruit flies exposed to paraquat, a weed killer that multiple studies have linked to the disease.
I’ll tell you what they found in just a moment – but first, here’s why they chose a bug model.
Fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster) reproduce quickly and have super-short lifespans measured in days, meaning that researchers can spot LIFETIMES of trends in just WEEKS.
That’s perfect for a long-term neurodegenerative disease like Parkinson’s.
In this case, researchers zoned in on motor skills and longevity… watching to see whether supplementing with the algae could counteract the paraquat’s impairing effects…

And they found something really exciting.
Despite exposure to paraquat, flies treated with spirulina actually MOVED BETTER and LIVED LONGER!
That means that the spirulina not only COUNTERACTED the harsh effects of a debilitating, disease-causing weed killer…
It also BOOSTED overall lifespan!
That’s largely thanks to the plant’s impressive anti-oxidant compounds, which even larger-organism studies have shown to tamp down inflammation and manage damaging oxidative stress.
The only thing that should ‘bug’ you about spirulina is that you can’t get it just anywhere.
Your local grocery store probably won’t carry it, so you’ll need to look for it online or at a nearby vitamin shop.
Choose a capsule form for easy daily carry or opt for a powdered version to mix water water, juice, or your morning smoothie.
