Benefits of Vitamins in the Treatment of Parkinson’s Disease
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease in the elderly, which is clinically characterized by bradykinesia, resting tremor, abnormal posture balance, and hypermyotonia. Currently, the pathogenic mechanism of PD remains unclear. Numerous clinical studies as well as animal and cell experiments have found a certain relationship between the vitamin family and PD. The antioxidant properties of vitamins and their biological functions of regulating gene expression may be beneficial for the ...

Micronutrients and Risk of Parkinson’s Disease: A Systematic
Review
Abstract
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder. Although the precise pathogenetic
mechanisms of PD remain undetermined, there appears to be both genetic and environmental factors that contribute
to the risk of developing PD. With regard to environmental risk factors, there has been significant interest related
to the role of diet, nutrition, and nutrients on the onset and progression of PD. As the current treatments are
predominantly focused on symptomatic management, ...

A nutritional approach to microbiota in Parkinson’s disease
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by motor impairment and the accumulation of
alpha-synucleinopathy (α-syn), which can affect different levels of the brain-gut axis. There is a two-way communication between the gastrointestinal tract, and brain that includes the gut microbiota. This bidirectional communication between the gut microbiota and the brain includes many pathways, such as immune mechanisms, the vagus nerve, and microbial neurometabolite production. The common cause of constipat...

Role of Dietary Supplements in the Management of Parkinson’s Disease
Abstract: The use of food supplements or functional food has significantly increased in the past decades, especially to compensate both the modern lifestyle and the food shortages of the industrialized countries. Despite food supplements are habitually intended to correct nutritional deficiencies or to support specific physiological functions, they are often combined with common drug therapies to improve the patient’s health and/or mitigate the symptoms of many chronic diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, cystic ...

The emerging role of nutrition in Parkinson’s disease
Parkinson’s disease(PD) is the second most prevalent neurodegenerative disease in ageing individuals. It is now clear that genetic susceptibility and environmental factors play a role in disease etiology and progression. Because environmental factors are involved with the majorit of the cases of PD, it is important to understand the role nutrition plays in both neuroprotection and neurodegeneration. Recent epidemiological studies have revealed the promise of some nutrients in reducing the risk of PD. In contrast, other nutrients ...

Diet in Parkinson’s Disease: Critical Role for the Microbiome
Background: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the most common movement disorder affecting up to 1% of the population above the age of 60 and 4–5% of those above the age of 85. Little progress has been made on efforts to prevent disease development or halt disease progression. Diet has emerged as a potential factor that may prevent the
development or slow the progression of PD. In this review, we discuss evidence for a role for the intestinal microbiome in PD and how diet-associated changes in the microbiome may be a viable ...

Does nutritional status affect Parkinson's Disease features and quality of life?
Abstract
Objectives : The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between nutritional status and Parkinson's
Disease (PD) features in association with depression, anxiety and quality of life in people with PD.
Materials and methods : This study was conducted on 96 patients with idiopathic PD to whom the following scales
were applied: Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS), 39-item PD questionnaire (PDQ-39), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Score (HADS), Mini Nutritional Assessment ...
