People with Parkinson’s disease (PD) have lots of questions about probiotics, prebiotics, laxatives and fiber. That’s because constipation and bloating are some of the more bothersome but less talked about symptoms of PD. In this audio from our Third Thursdays Webinar, experts and people with PD discuss effective ways for managing constipation and other gut-related symptoms. You’ll also learn about emerging treatments for constipation, the gut-brain connection and why the gut is linked to Parkinson’s.
