What should you eat when you have Parkinson’s disease? The Parkinson’s Plate, penned by registered dietitian Emily Truscott, MS, RD, LD, and me, is a practical health and nutrition guide created specifically for people living with Parkinson’s and their families. This quick flip-through gives you a look inside a book designed to move beyond confusing dietary advice and toward practical choices you can actually use. We cover nutrition, the interaction between protein and Parkinson’s medications, swallowing difficulties, constipation and gut health, weight and hydration, and recipes designed with Parkinson’s in mind. There is no single Parkinson’s diet, but what we eat and how we eat can matter. Our goal is to help people navigate the journey with better information, realistic strategies, and food that is both healthy and enjoyable. https://youtube.com/shorts/Sk7uUKk35o0
