Environmental factors and Parkinson’s disease The environment plays some role in Parkinson's disease. An extreme example came from California in 1981. A group of drug addicts rapidly developed Parkinson's disease after unknowingly injecting themselves with contraband heroin that had been tainted with a toxic contaminant similar to Demerol, called MPTP. Although this episode taught researchers a great deal about Parkinson's disease, MPTP is obviously not an important factor in Parkinson's disease in the general population. Living in a rural environment slightly increases the statistical risk of Parkinson's disease, perhaps because of exposure to well water and agricultural chemicals, such as pesticides. Some agricultural chemicals have a structure similar to MPTP. However, there is no solid proof linking any such chemicals to Parkinson's disease in patients. For unknown reasons, people who have smoked cigarettes and drank coffee for many years may be less prone to getting Parkinson's disease. However there is absolutely no reason to think that patients with Parkinson's should smoke or drink caffeine. Certainly, no one should begin or continue smoking in order to protect himself or herself from Parkinson's disease. The role of diet has been examined many times, based on the hypothesis that anti-oxidants might protect against the disease. Most studies show no significant role for diet. As with other diseases, genes and environment interact, meaning that it is the combination of a person's genetic make-up and his/her environmental exposures that determines whether or not he/she will develop a disease.

A DIET TO POTENTIALLY REDUCE EXPOSURE ANXIETY? by Donna Williams Norepinephrine, the neurotransmitter which in excess is associated with mania, agitation, anxiety and fight-flight states and in deficiency associated with depression, and in bipolar likely fluctuating extremely between the two, can be out of sync for a whole variety of reasons. It has recently been realised that bipolar and Tourette's can occur from early infancy and are believed by some researchers to co-occur in those with autism in up to 30% of cases. It is theoretically possible that it may be such a group which may be more susceptible to acute severe episodes or chronic Exposure Anxiety states seen in those with severe or chronic involuntary avoidance, diversion, retaliation responses with retaliation responses sometimes presenting as 'challenging" or "self injurous" behaviours. For those who are interested particularly in ideas which might reduce severe Exposure Anxiety in some people with autism, high levels of Tyramine is one thing known to cause excessive stimulation of Norepinephrine- the neurotransmitter which in excess is associated with high levels of fight-flight responses. Excess Norepinephrine is believed associated with agitation, acute anxiety and manic episodes. Theoretically, if Norepinephrine was KEPT in an ecessively high state on a chronic level, a person might progressively develop the fight-flight state I call Exposure Anxiety and would likely also progressively exhaust the adrenal glands- in other words, potentially resulting in progressive impairment of immune system function.

Dr. Brian J. Abelson D.C. Numerous medical researchers are studying the relationship between disorders of the Biochemical individuality determines how our bodies can process these toxins, and is dependent on our genetic make-up and the effectiveness of our detoxification mechanisms. Biochemical individuality explains how the genetic makeup of certain people makes them more susceptible to many chronic and crippling diseases. Even though genetics Elimination of Toxins From Our Bodies The detoxification process conducted by our liver is divided into two distinct phases(4). A exo-toxin (such as environmental pollutants, pharmaceutical drugs, toxic chemicals, and hormones), or an endo-toxin (waste by-products from our bodies metabolism, pathogenic bacteria, or oxygen reactive species) enters into the liver for detoxification. During the first phase of detoxification cytochrome P450 enzymes act on the toxins to turn them into what is know as bio-transformed intermediate species. Detoxification process can continue as long as there is an adequate supply of essential nutrients available for enzymatic processes.. The bio-transformed intermediate species are converted into water-soluble substances by conjugation enzymes. These water soluble substances are then excreted as non-toxic materials through urine and feces(2,3,4,5). Problems occur when essential nutrients are not present. When this happens, the liver produces reactive oxygen species. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) refers to all highly reactive, oxygen-containing molecules including free radicals. These molecules are capable of causing cellular damage when they react with membrane lipids, nucleic acids, proteins, enzymes, and other small molecules(2,5,6).

They then gave the mice moderate amounts of MPTP, a chemical that can cause Parkinson-like symptoms. In the mice fed folate, MPTP caused only mild symptoms of disease. But mice fed the folate-deficient diet developed severe Parkinson-like symptoms. The scientists found that mice with low amounts of dietary folic acid had elevated levels of homocysteine in the blood and brain. They suspect that increased levels of homocysteine in the brain caused damage to the DNA of nerve cells in the substantia nigra, an important brain structure that produces dopamine.

Community Departments Parish Offices Regions ... College of Agriculture Distributed 05/23/03 Printer Friendly Story Text Vitamin E Diet May Reduce Risk of Parkinson's Disease, LSU AgCenter Nutritionist Says Parkinson’s disease is thought to be the result of oxidative damage of the nerve cells in the brain. Since vitamins E, C and carotenoids are antioxidant nutrients, recent research looked at the relationship of these nutrients to Parkinson’s, according to LSU AgCenter nutritionist Dr. Heli Roy. Results add to the evidence for consuming antioxidant-rich foods to ward off chronic diseases, like cancer and heart disease, based on the theory that antioxidants protect against free radicals that can damage cells, the LSU AgCenter nutritionist explains. Two large studies with researchers from the Harvard School of Public Health, Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School were used to assess the relationship of these nutrients and the development of Parkinson’s disease: 76,890 women from the Nurses' Health Study (NHS) and 47,331 men from the Health Professionals Follow-Up Study (HPFS). Repeated and validated dietary assessment tools and a food frequency questionnaire were used to assess intake of vitamin E, C and carotenoids and vitamin supplements. The type and brand of vitamin and mineral supplements were recorded.

The treatment for Parkinson's disease involves not only the use of drugs - which is the mainstay of treatment for most patients - but also the involvement of many other disciplines: nursing, speech, occupational and physiotherapies and diet. More recently, advances in brain surgery have been made so that on occasion a number of surgical procedures can also be considered for some people. Drugs: The various drugs used for treatment are of differing actions; some are more useful in situations where a particular symptom dominates. Many of them can have side effects in some people, side effects that have features so like Parkinson's disease itself that they have to be discontinued. Treatment management and stabilisation can often, therefore, be very difficult and complicated. Surgery: It is the advancements in surgical techniques that are starting to offer patients a better chance of a successful treatment. Specific areas of the brain can be approached by a variety of surgical interventions: implantation of electrodes for stimulation of certain areas as needed; electrode destruction of trouble-causing cells in the brain (stereotactic surgery); and more recently, brain tissue transplants have produced encouraging results (where genetically engineered cells can be placed in the brain in order to supply the 'missing' chemicals), but this is really still in the experimental stages.

Parkinson's disease occurs when some of the nerve centers in the brain lose the ability to regulate muscle movements. As a result, you may have rigid muscles, tremors, and difficulty walking and swallowing. Parkinson's disease is one of the most common diseases affecting movement in people over age 55. It is chronic, meaning you will have it the rest of your life. It also is progressive, which means the symptoms grow worse over time. The disease may become disabling after many years. However, proper treatment should make it possible for you to lead a fulfilling, productive life. How does it occur?

General Illness Information Medical Term: Parkinson’s disease Common Name: None Specified Description: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a chronic, progressive movement disorder which affects 1% of the population over the age of 65 years. This is a neurological disorder which becomes apparent as cells in a certain part of the brain (the basal ganglia), are lost. The disease is characterized by a tremor which is present at rest, increased muscle tone (stiffness) and/or a slowness in initiating movements. The disease usually presents in people over the age of 50 years. In younger people without a family history of PD, symptoms like tremor are likely to be due to some other cause. Causes: Unknown. There is accelerated loss of dopaminergic neurons in the part of the brain called substantia nigra- in normal people loss of neurons occurs at 0.5% as opposed to 1% in patients with Parkinsonism. By definition, PD is a disease without a known cause. PD is thought to result partly from a genetic predisposition to the disease and partly from exposure to toxic substances in the environment (which are as yet unknown).
