A member asked:
Which nutritional supplements have been recommended for people with huntington's disease?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
High calorie diet: Several supplements have been tested in huntington's patients, but no significant advantages have been found. A high calorie diet improves well-being because huntington patients consume much energy with their increased movements. The best non-pharmacologic care remains a safe, padded environment and support for depression and suicidal tendencies.
