    Researchers have suspected for some time that the link between our gut and brain plays a role in the development of Parkinson's disease.

    A recent study identified gut microbes likely to be involved and linked them with decreased riboflavin ( vitamin B2) and biotin (vitamin B7), pointing the way to an unexpectedly simple treatment that may help: B vitamins.

    "Supplementation of riboflavin and/or biotin is likely to be beneficial in a subset of Parkinson's disease patients, in which gut dysbiosis plays pivotal roles," Nagoya University medical researcher Hiroshi Nishiwaki and colleagues wrote in their paper published in May 2024..

        I’ve been taking biotin to help strengthen splitting fingernails. Results are uncertain for that, but it’s nice to know there may be other benefits.
