"Stomach Problems
Impaired ability to empty the contents of the stomach, called gastroparesis, is a potential complication of PD. This may produce a bloated sensation and cause you to feel full even if you have eaten very little. Sometimes nausea may develop."

A naturopath told us it was worthwhile to try ginger/lemon tea because she said that ginger has a reputation as a prokinetic which means it can help with digestion. the article mentions a prescription medicine. My husband does use digestive enzymes with his meals and that also seems to help. Bloating was not a problem but he did feel full after eating small amounts of food in the past. His digestion has been pretty good for over a year now. He doesn't generally get hungry but now that he is not having digestive issues he has been able to gain some weight. When he had the problems he was quite underweight. Now he is just a little over the minimum weight for his height.

"Conclusion
Accumulating experimental evidence has highlighted the potentially beneficial effects of ginger and its compounds on PD development, acting mainly in an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant manner, but also possibly by preventing mitochondrial dysfunction, protecting against increased intestinal permeability, and regulating dopamine synaptic transmission (Table 1). Although clinical studies are lacking and at present ginger is obviously not a curative treatment for PD, it could represent a promising long-term used dietary supplement for PD prevention."

Hi there, I also have quite a bit of bloating and very gassy specially in the evening time but not specifically after a meal. I find that over-the-counter medication for gas and bloating or relief but my internal medicine physician who does my regularly schedule colonoscopy say that really there’s no solution to the problem. It’s just there and, not much we could do take care be safe warmest regards, Arthur

Thanks Julie. The ginger tea helped yesterday and I will continue today. Tell me about digestive enzymes please
