For the past 10 years, researchers have discovered the connection between health and health, such as ultrasound foods and heart disease, type 2 diabetes, dementia and some types of cancer.
Now they are adding Parkinson’s bottles to the list. A A Study published on Wednesday in Neurological JournalResearchers in the United States and China have reported more likely to develop initial signs than those who consumed many ultrasound foods less than those who consumed the initial signs of the disease.
This discovery is not evidence that ultra -tired foods are progressive and incomprehensible, indicated by Parkinson’s disease, progress, muscle rigidity and other symptoms.
But this study says, Dr. Silke Appel Cresswell, a neurology and specialist at the Pacific Parkinson Research Center at British Columbia University, who is not involved in finding the connection between what we eat and neurological diseases.
She has already established an important role in developing the same conditions as heart disease, but “We are doing some catch up on the effects of brain health.” This is where we must start.
What a new study found
Super fine foods and drinks are generally made of ingredients that are not found in home kitchens. Categories including soda, processed meat and many snack foods More than half of American adults Consume
For this study, the researchers have investigated whether they eat this food and the early symptoms of Parkinson’s disease. This included constipation, dreaming behavior while sleeping, the ability to smell, color, depression and daytime drowsiness.
The researchers analyzed the survey data by nearly 43,000 health experts in the United States from the mid -1980s to the mid -2000s. Every two to four years, participants, mostly white, were asked about the type and amount of food they generally consumed. Since 2012, they have also reported symptoms.
The researchers found that the participants who ate ultrasound foods were about 2.5 times or 2.5 times compared to the most consumed people.
If you have this symptom, it does not mean that the disease occurs, but you can see the brain change that can lead to diagnosis in a few years, Harvard TH CHAN School of Public Health, and the author of the study.
A Previous studyDr. Ascherio and his colleagues have found that three early Parkinson symptoms (the elderly who have reduced constipation, dreams and smells) may be diagnosed with 23 times more likely to be diagnosed as a disease in three years.
Dr. Appel Cresswell said the detailed Korean food collected for decades is powerful due to the size, duration and use of the data. She said it is important to investigate the initial signs of Parkinson’s disease and help to understand how lifestyle changes can slow or prevent disease.
Nevertheless, there are some limitations in this study, Appel Cresswell said. She said she would want to see the data on ultra -tired food consumption and the actual diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease. Dr. Ascherio said he and his colleagues are currently investigating this.
Dr. Appel Cresswell also explains the diet data in detail, but it has been reported by the participants, so it may not be accurately reflected how much and how much the participants have eaten. And other factors that are not included in the study, such as the sleeping habits of the participants, can also affect the signs of Parkinson.
How to affect the brain that super fine foods can affect the brain
How can I increase the risk of developing Parkinson’s disease if I eat ultrasound food? Dr. Ascherio said this is a $ 1 billion question.
Perhaps certain additives of ultra -tired foods or chemicals in packaging will cause inflammation, cell damage or microbial changes, which will eventually harm brain cells.
Foods that eat more high -altitude foods are missing healthier foods such as fiber, antioxidants and anti -inflammatory compounds, such as fruits, vegetables and beans, said Puja agarwal, a nutritional epidemic scholar of Rush University in Chicago. research Proposal Diets that prioritize these foods, such as the Mediterranean diet, are related to the reduction of the risk of Parkinson’s disease.
Dr. Appel Cresswell now needs to be clinical trials with early signs of Parkinson’s disease or diagnosed, and if they adopt more healthy diets, they can prevent, delay, or slow down the disease. But considering what we already know, she said that she has the advantage of eating less and less food, not for the brain.
Dr. Agarwal agreed. “If you improve your diet, it’s not just one thing,” she said. “Eating for your brain is also good for your heart and is good for overall welfare.”
