Protect Against Parkinson's Disease With Berries...
Dear Reader,
Dark, delicious tasting berries, rich in antioxidants known as flavonoids, might just protect you from developing Parkinson's disease according to a recent study funded by the National Institutes of Health. Flavonoids are also found in apples, chocolate and citrus fruits, though not all are created equal. A subset of these nutrients known as anthocyanins (found in berries and other red/purple veggies and fruits) offer protection for both men and women.
Several earlier studies have found the benefits of berries to the body - one being lowering the risk of high blood pressure according to Harvard Medical School instructor Dr. Xiang Gao. Certainly eating lots of berries can surely do no harm.
To conduct the study, the team collected information on just about 49,000 men who took part in the Health Professionals Follow-up Study and over 80,000 women from the Nurses' Health Study.
The subjects completed detailed questionnaires about what they ate. Using this, the researchers calculated the flavonoids amount people ate by examining the amounts of tea, berries, apples, red wine, oranges and orange juice in the subjects' diets.
After follow up of 22 years, 805 of the subjects had been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. When the research team combined all individual flavonoids, the total intake was tied to a significantly lower Parkinson's disease risk in men, but no reduced risk for women.
For men, those who ate the most flavonoids were 40% less likely to develop this neurodegenerative condition compared to men who ate the least flavonoids.
For women there wasn't any relationship between total flavonoids consumption and the risk of Parkinson's. But, that subset of flavonoids known as anthocyanins were tied to a lower risk of Parkinson's in both men and women.
If these results are confirmed by more studies, anthocyanins could be considered protective against Parkinson's.
A well known Parkinson's expert, and professor of neurology at the University of Miami Dr. Carlos Singer, believes the protective effect comes from the antioxidants. So much of the mechanism of Parkinson's has to do with the nerve cells and how they handle oxidative stress. That's just what flavonoids might be able to do, boost the ability of those nerve cells to handle this type of stress.

Protect Against Parkinson's Disease With Berries... Continued...
The causes of Parkinson's disease are not known, though the latest thinking considers
both genetic and environmental components as pieces to the puzzle according to
Singer.
So if you are genetically predisposed, and are exposed to the right environmental
trigger, the difference between getting Parkinson's or not may well come down
to how many, and what type, or flavonoids are in your diet at the time.
A chronic, progressive condition, Parkinson's disease usually strikes those over
50, with early symptoms being subtle and progressing gradually over time. The
primary symptoms are trembling, rigidity, slowness of movement and impairments
to balance and coordination. When the symptoms, in most cases tremor, begin to
interfere with daily activities, there are treatments available that can help.
If you're worried about these types of symptoms, talk to your doctor. While there
isn't a blood test to conform your diagnosis, your medical history and getting
a proper neurological exam can certainly help. Understand that this work shows
an association, but not cause and effect, between Parkinson's and flavonoids.
To your good health,
Kirsten Whittaker
