Are you a Farmer? You may be at higher risk for Parkinsonās Disease...
People who are involved with farming including pig, cattle, fruit, arboriculture and permanent crops, not only feed us, they also likely handle insecticides which puts them at risk for Parkinsonās.
A 2011 study published in the journal, Movement Disorder confirmed that their findings are āconsistent with studies reporting an association between PD and insecticide use and show that workers in farms specialized in fruits or permanent crops may be an occupational group at higher PD riskā.
Echoing this, a 2025 study published in Nature concluded that their findings ārepresent a preliminary work that suggests the potential involvement of occupational risk factors related to farming in PD onset and developmentā.
Researchers believe that the cause of Parkinsonās disease is likely a complex interaction involving abnormal genetics, occupational risks, environmental factors such as pesticides, and other factors.
Due to the lack of specific diagnostic tests the vast majority of individuals at risk for Parkinsonās are not being screened early or accurately enough. Because of limited approved treatments, those with Parkinsonās disease are not being offered comprehensive treatments.
