Austin welcomes Tobias Erny, a Swiss iboga practitioner, researcher, and Co-Director of the Global Iboga Therapy Alliance. Tobias shares how ibogaine helped him end his own opiate addiction, and how that recovery grew into two decades of work with iboga, including a published case report on low-dose ibogaine for Parkinson's disease. Paul and Tobias explore why ibogaine may help some people living with Parkinson's, from GDNF, a growth factor that supports dopamine neurons, to its effects on mood and motivation. They also discuss how ibogaine differs from the whole iboga plant, why many patients don't respond, the medication interactions families should understand first, and why starting low and staying honest about uncertainty matters as research moves toward a clinical trial.
