The scores run from 0 to 100 with the following classifications:
Low GI: 55 or less.
Medium GI: 56–69.
High GI: 70–100.
Diets based on low-GI foods are thought to be particularly good for people with type 2 diabetes"

Delusions And Hallucinations - Parkinson's


"Visual hallucinations are the most common experienced by people with PD. You might believe there is an animal or person in the room who is not there. Common examples include a cat that is not your pet scampering across the living room floor, or a neighbor sitting at your dining room table when no one is in fact there."

"Delusions are false, fixed beliefs...There are different forms of delusions, like with hallucinations, but the most common in PD are persecutory and jealousy...It can be disturbing for the whole family because delusions are not deliberate. There is no way to control them or, once experienced, to reason through or argue over them."


"Delusions can include:

  • Paranoia. You may believe you’re the victim of a conspiracy, or that someone is trying to hurt or harm you.
  • Jealousy. You may have jealous feelings. For example, you may think that someone you love is betraying you.
  • Extravagance. You may think you have special powers that you do not. This could make you act in an unusual or dangerous way... But when delusions make people suspicious and mistrusting, they can cause problems in relationships. With a serious delusion, there is a chance you could accuse your partner or a family member of something they haven’t done... Some people have paranoid delusions where they think someone is planning to cause them harm. For example, you may believe that your carer is trying to give you too much medication. This could have a big effect on how your drug regime is followed and leave you not wanting to take medication."

https://www.thehindu.com/sci-tech/health/scientists-find-earliest-signs-of-parkinsons-in-brain/article28089188.ece: "Serotonin function was an excellent marker for how advanced Parkinson's disease has become..Suspected causes of the disease before the study included levels of the neurotransmitter dopamine, and there is growing evidence of a possible link between Parkinson's and gut function, though this is poorly understood"
