AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

A groundbreaking prescriptive guide to preventing and fighting Parkinson's disease

"The Parkinson's Plan meets this moment with science, clarity, and a path forward." (Sanjay Gupta, chief medical correspondent, CNN)

In The Parkinson's Plan, two doctors on the cutting edge of Parkinson's research detail the steps necessary to prevent, slow, and treat this debilitating condition. They show readers how to prevent the disease through the food we eat, the water we drink, the air we breathe, and the lifestyles we live. They introduce the "Parkinson's 25," the most detailed checklist ever created to allow anyone to lower their risk of Parkinson's. They interview the world's top scientists, clinicians, and thought leaders in the Parkinson's field to offer a detailed plan for treatment that includes cutting-edge methods and recent technological and medical advances.

The Parkinson's Plan takes the next step in winning the battle against Parkinson's, presenting a clear road map with the strategies and tactics necessary to create a world where the disease is increasingly rare and the treatments are more successful.

Ray Dorsey and Michael S. Okun are two of the world's most published, read, cited, and well-known neurologists. Together they have educated hundreds of thousands of families affected by Parkinson's, cared for ten thousand individuals with the disease, and trained hundreds of clinicians. They are the coauthors of Ending Parkinson's Disease. Dorsey lives in Rochester, New York and Okun lives in Gainesville, Florida.
