Parkinson's disease: restoring digestion, resolving constipation

The aim is not to eliminate Parkinson's disease, but to relieve the digestive symptoms — above all chronic constipation — and to improve quality of life. We work on this together with you through microbiota transfer therapy, under medical guidance, in a measured and supportive way.

The link between the gut and Parkinson's disease

A growing body of scientific evidence suggests that in many cases Parkinson's disease begins in the gut — the literature calls this the “gut-first” hypothesis. Chronic constipation is typically not an accompanying symptom but one of the earliest signs of the disease: it can precede the appearance of the motor symptoms (tremor, slowness of movement) by years.

The composition of the gut flora and the gut–brain axis — to a significant extent via the vagus nerve (nervus vagus) — play an important role in this process. This is precisely why putting the digestive system in order is not a side issue, but a factor that directly affects your everyday comfort.

What do we aim for with microbiota transfer?

Important: our aim is not to cure Parkinson's disease, but to relieve the digestive symptoms — chronic constipation in particular — to restore regular, balanced digestion, and through this to improve your well-being and quality of life.

The process begins with selecting the right donor: with the help of a compatibility test (FindBiome) we identify the microbiota most suitable for you, and on this basis we put together the personalised TransferBiome course.

Important: in Parkinson's disease bowel movement often slows down, which is why, alongside the capsules, an enema is in many cases also needed for the effective delivery of the microbiota. We carry this out under medical guidance in every case.
This is how the process is built up

The aim is always to restore digestion and to resolve constipation — not to cure Parkinson's disease. The use of an enema is often part of the protocol; we carry this out under medical guidance in every case, for your safety.

Let's talk about your digestive complaints

Write us a brief description of your symptoms and of which healthcare professional is overseeing your treatment — we will help with the rest.

We put this in measured terms: the aim is to relieve the digestive symptoms, primarily chronic constipation, not to cure Parkinson's disease. Treatment takes place exclusively under medical supervision. MicroBiome Bank does not sell a product; it connects donors and recipients by providing professional medical services: it organises the recruitment of donors and their screening in a certified laboratory, the stool tests, and the processing of the screened donation into capsule form. The capsules are delivered “to the physician's hand”. For detailed information, please get in touch with us.
