Parkinson’s - Prevention And Possible Help

Finding the cause of Parkinson’s or any of the other neurological diseases that seem to be on the increase these days can be most challenging. However, studies have shown that individuals who spray insecticides inside the home have twice the risk of developing Parkinson’s when compared to those who don’t. Studies also show that in farming communities where drinking water is contaminated with these chemicals there is a higher rate of the disease. Pesticide levels in brain tissue are higher in victims of Parkinson’s than in the general population. (Neurology 98;50:1346-1350)

If you want to protect yourself without giving up your love of gardening, here is what I recommend: If you must use insecticides or pesticides, wear appropriate gloves, clothing, and masks to minimize your exposure, and store the containers as far from your living space as possible.

For Those With Parkensons

Here's a product that may help prevent or slow the progression of Parkinson’s disease. Fermented Papaya Preparation brand name Immun’Age FPP, is manufactured by a Japanese company called Osato. Immun’Age is produced from non-genetically modified papayas that are grown in Hawaii. The papayas undergo a fermentation process and are then dried and ground into a fine powder. The final product is packed in 3-gram foil packs. Immun’Age FPP was first developed in 1969, and has been on the Japanese market for about the last 10 years. It is sold primarily as an immune booster.

Doctors and researchers familiar with Immun’Age FPP, including Dr. Luc Montagnier, president of the World Foundation for AIDS Research and Prevention, feel that the product’s ability to scavenge free radicals is what makes it effective in helping treat Parkinson’s disease.

This new discovery becomes very important. Immun’Age FPP is natural and there haven’t been any reports of serious side effects. Another plus, according to people I’ve spoken with, is it seems to work rather quickly. You should be able to tell within a couple of weeks if it’s going to help you.

Dr. Montagnier recommends taking two packets of the powder daily—one in the morning and another in the evening. For best results, the powder should be dumped under the tongue and taken on an empty stomach. Immun’Age FPP is available from Papaya Science at 888-847-3068 or www.papayascience.com.
