A recent study found that the incidence of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and Lou Gehrig’s diseases, has increased in far greater numbers than previously suspected.
Even more frightening is the fact that these devastating neurological disorders are occurring at much earlier ages than previously seen. Some patients are in their 20s and 30s.

Alzheimer’s is the No. 1 neurodegenerative disease, while Parkinson’s is a close second.

About 1 million people suffer from the debilitating Alzheimer's disease, and 50,000 new cases are diagnosed each year.

Until recently, medical scientists had no idea what caused this neurological disorder. Slowly, these scientists have discovered that, like so many diseases afflicting us in modern times, Parkinson’s is an inflammatory disease. For more information on the causes of this devastating disease, go here to get my special report “Parkinson’s Disease — You Can Fight Back.”

Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s are linked to other inflammatory conditions such as diabetes. Regardless of the event or condition that triggers the disease, the damage is caused by intense activation of the brain’s immune cells, called microglia, that destroy parts of the brain.
One of the strongest links to Parkinson’s disease is exposure to pesticides and herbicides, especially paraquat, pyridaben, fenazaquin, dieldrin, and rotenone.

Rotenone, one of the most common pesticide ingredients, is suspected of being a major cause of human Parkinson’s disease. In fact, it now is accepted that exposure to pesticides and herbicides is the leading environmental cause of the disease.
Recent studies also have shown that it is not even necessary to be exposed to normally toxic levels of these poisons to be affected. For example, one study found that, if an animal was exposed to a single pesticide in a dose so low that it didn’t cause any brain damage (called a subtoxic dose) and then exposed to another pesticide sometime in the future, also in a subtoxic dose, the two together cause extensive damage to the part of the brain normally damaged from Parkinson’s disease. We call this the multiplying of toxicity “synergism.”

We know that farmers, exposed to numerous, high concentrations of pesticides and herbicides, have a much higher incidence of Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease than the general population. Some people are especially sensitive, with low amounts causing extensive damage to their neurological systems.

But there are steps you can take to minimize your chances of getting this devastating disease:
•     Eat at least five to seven servings of fruits and vegetables, especially nutrient-dense vegetables, to gain the greatest protection.
•     Avoid a high protein diet.
•     Drink only filtered or distilled water, with magnesium added. Fluoride in all its forms (fluoridated water, toothpaste, fluoride treatments, etc.) should be avoided at all costs. For more information on the dangers of ordinary drinking water, read my special report “Is Your Drinking Water Fit to Drink?” Go here for details.
•     Eat some foods, such as chocolate, in limited amounts. For instance, chocolate is high in copper, a metal associated with a high risk of Parkinson’s disease.
•     Wash all produce to remove pesticide residues. Blueberries, raspberries, blackberries and spinach have all been shown to enhance brain protection and, especially, brain healing.

Middletown just added flouride to the water a few years ago and we are being charged for that on our water bills. The general consensus was that it provided protection for the teeth, especially in young people. Now, this article says to stay away from the flouride. Another consideration- how about the liquid fertilizers, weed killers and sprays that are applied to the lawns by the lawn care companies? Would this have an impact on the promotion of these diseases? I don't use liquid chemicals on my lawn- only granular. Do granular chemicals promote these diseases? The article mentions eating chocolate in low amounts due to the copper content. Other times, you read or hear where dark chocolate is good for you. As in alot of studies on what is right to eat, we have conflicting information about the same foods. What are we to believe by all these studies/articles???
