"More than half of the average American adult's calories come from ultra-processed foods, raising the risk of developing features that precede Parkinson's disease."
"Researchers found that participants consuming about 11 servings of ultra-processed foods daily were 2.5 times more likely to show early signs of Parkinson's than those consuming two to three."
A new study reveals a concerning link between the high intake of ultra-processed foods and the risk of developing early signs of Parkinson's disease. Researchers at Fudan University and Harvard analyzed dietary data from over 40,000 health professionals. Those consuming around 11 servings of ultra-processed foods daily were found to be 2.5 times more likely to exhibit early nonmotor features of Parkinson's compared to those with two to three servings. This underscores the need for greater awareness of diet's role in neurodegenerative disease.
