In Fight Against Parkinson's, Berries Are A New Weapon...
Dear Reader,
Yet another example of the power of a plant based diet. Two of the tastiest berries,
blueberries and strawberries, appear to contain a potent natural ingredient that
may well offer protection against Parkinson's disease. The actor Michael J Fox
is
a
well
known sufferer of this debilitating condition.
Just two (or more) servings of these berries a week may be enough to get the benefit according to new work from a team out of Harvard University and the University of East Anglia who have just published their work in the journal Neurology.
Parkinson's is a neurological disease that most often develops after age 50,
caused when brain cells that make dopamine are destroyed over time. Without
the dopamine the nerve cells in this area of the brain can't send messages and
this brings the loss of muscle function.
Symptoms include the hallmark tremors
as well as trouble with movement, coordination and walking that starts out mild,
getting progressively worse over time. While there is no cure today for Parkinson's
disease, there are treatments that increase levels of dopamine in the brain and
help control the disruptive symptoms.
Berries are known to be a rich source of antioxidants (flavonoids to be exact) that may protect brain cells from damage. Flavonoids are a natural part of many plant based foods and beverages - not just berries, but apples, red wine and tea.
The latest work included over 130,000 male and female subjects, 49,281 men from the Health Professional Follow-up Study, 80,336 women from the Nurses' Health Study who were followed for 20 years. Flavonoid intake was measured with an updated food composition database and validated food frequency questionnaire. During the study period just over 800 of the subjects got Parkinson's disease.
After a detailed analysis, the researchers found that adults who ate berries two times a week, or more, were almost 25% less likely to be diagnosed with Parkinson's disease than those who had less than a serving of berries per month.
When the team examined the data for men and women by themselves the benefit of consuming these delicious fruits went to the men. Men who had the highest levels of flavonoids in their diet were 40% less likely to be diagnosed with Parkinson's than those who had the lowest intake.

In Fight Against Parkinson's, Berries Are A New Weapon... Continued...
For women, flavonoid intake had no impact on Parkinson's risk. Researcher Xiang
Gao, MD, PhD, an assistant professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School points
out that the take home message from the research is that berries are associated
with a lower risk of this debilitating disease. Of course the findings only show
a link, not cause and effect, so more work will need to be done before anyone
will suggest eating berries for Parkinson's.
Likewise no one knows if the benefit that comes from eating berries is a combined
effect of different types, or something in the whole food itself.
The good thing is that there's no downside to enjoying berries as part of your
diet. Add them to your morning cereal or yogurt or enjoy them topped with whipped
cream as a sweet, yet not too indulgent desert. On their own both strawberries
and blueberries are delicious as well.
Other experts are cautiously optimistic; encouraged by the idea that flavonoid
intake might help with reducing the risk of such a devastating disease. Today
Parkinson's disease is one of a group of chronic conditions that changes the
lives of one in 500 of us, with new cases being diagnosed every day. Encouraging
that intake of these tasty foods might someday be found to bring down these numbers.
To your good health,
