Parkinson’s disease can feel like a relentless storm, slowly eroding your independence and joy. But what if you could fight back with science, lifestyle, and the healing power of Oregon’s own natural resources? At Proactive Choice, Dr. Drew Collins is pioneering a revolution in Parkinson’s care—one that’s giving Oregonians their lives back.
Why Is Parkinson’s on the Rise in Oregon?
Oregon’s aging population means more families are facing the challenges of Parkinson’s disease
every year. From Bend to Portland, Eugene to Medford, thousands are searching for answers beyond medication and surgery. Traditional treatments can help manage tremors and stiffness, but they rarely stop the disease from advancing.
But here’s the good news:New research in neuroregeneration—powered by breakthroughs in nutrition, exercise, and hormone science—is offering real hope. And it’s available right here in Oregon.
What Is Neuroregeneration and How Can It Help Parkinson’s Patients?
Neuroregeneration means helping your brain repair and protect itself. Dr. Drew Collins, in partnership with global leaders like Dr. Nick Norwitz (Oxford/Harvard) and the UK’s Anti-Aging System Company, has crafted a holistic protocol that’s changing lives for Parkinson’s patients in Oregon.

Key Elements of the Proactive Choice Parkinson’s Protocol
1. Ketogenic Diet: How Does It Support Brain Health?
A locally inspired, high-fat, low-carb ketogenic diet (think wild-caught Columbia River salmon, Willamette Valley hazelnuts, and Oregon eggs) fuels your brain with ketones, reducing inflammation and supporting dopamine-producing neurons. Intermittent fasting (like a 16:8 schedule) further enhances your body’s natural repair systems.
2. High-Intensity Exercise: Why Is It Crucial for Parkinson’s?
Whether you’re hiking Smith Rock, cycling along the Willamette, or joining a local dance class, high-intensity exercise sparks neuroplasticity—your brain’s ability to rewire and heal. Just three sessions a week can slow motor decline and improve mood.
3. Bioidentical Hormones: What Role Do They Play?
Aging and Parkinson’s both disrupt hormone balance. Dr. Collins uses safe, bioidentical hormones—estradiol, testosterone, and thyroid—customized for each patient. This can boost energy, sharpen thinking, and slow neurodegeneration.
4. Lion’s Mane Mushroom: Can Nature Really Help?
Oregon-grown Lion’s Mane is a powerful ally. Its active compound, Ericine A, stimulates nerve growth and helps protect memory. Supplementing with Lion’s Mane can improve clarity and cognitive resilience.
5. Targeted Neuroprotective Therapies: What Else Is Included?
Bromocriptine: Reduces “off” periods and supports dopamine.
Citicoline: Boosts neuroplasticity and motor function.
Deprenyl (Selegiline): Shields brain cells from damage.
Piracetam and Nootropics: Enhance cognition and dopamine signaling.
All therapies are closely monitored and tailored to your unique needs.

Local Focus: We use Oregon-grown foods and supplements and uses the most advanced testing through nationally standardized labs.
