- Outcome Measure
- Determine the effects of tyrosine supplementation on orthostatic hypotension in people with PD, Orthostatic Blood Pressure Testing: Subjects will sit and rest for 10 minutes. Blood pressure will be taken in this resting position after the 10 minutes. Subjects will then stand upright for 3 minutes. Blood pressure will be taken every minute for those 3 minutes. A drop in systolic BP of 20 mmHg and a 10 mmHg in diastolic drop within these 3 minutes indicates orthostatic hypotension according to the American Academy of Neurology. Blood Samples: Norepinephrine and tyrosine will all be examined via blood samples drawn by a medical assistant or physician from the forearm vein in vacutainer tubes. Two vacutainers of three cc's of blood will be collected and frozen until analyzed., 7 days
