Nutritional Risk Factors, Microbiota and Parkinson’s Disease: What Is the Current Evidence?
Abstract: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a frequent neurodegenerative disease among elderly people. Genetic and underlying environmental factors seem to be involved in the pathogenesis of PD related to degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the striatum. In previous experimental researches oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, homocysteine, and neuroinflammation have been reported as potential mechanisms. Among environmental factors, nutrition is one of the most investigated areas as it is ...

Nutrition and Lifestyle Interventions for Managing Parkinson’s Disease: A Narrative Review
ABSTRACT
The etiology of Parkinson’s disease (PD) is not fully understood, but environmental toxin overexposure, increased intestinal permeability, and dysbiosis related to nutrition and lifestyle habits are thought to be contributors. Considering these nutrition and lifestyle implications, there is a lack of practice-based programs utilizing interventions for managing symptoms or slowing the progression of the disease. The purpose of this narrative review was to identify relevant research ...

Role of Diet and Nutritional Supplements in Parkinson’s
Disease Progression
Objectives. The goal of this study is to describe modifiable lifestyle variables associated with reduced rate of Parkinson’s disease (PD) progression. Methods. The patient-reported outcomes in PD (PRO-PD) were used as the primary outcome measure, and a food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) was used to assess dietary intake. In this cross-sectional analysis, regression analysis was performed on baseline data to identify the nutritional and pharmacological interventions associated with the rate of PD progression. ...

Dietary Intake of Parkinson’s Disease Patients
Background and Aims: Dietary management, as an adjuvant therapy in Parkinson’s disease (PD), provides clear benefits to patients. However, baseline information about the usual dietary intake of Parkinson’s patients is lacking.
Methods: We conducted an observational cross-sectional study, investigating the dietary intake in Belgian PD patients, as well as their medication use and knowledge of possible food-drug interactions. A dietary record of 2 non-consecutive days, allowing the calculation of usual intake, was used. Medication use and ...

Prospective study of dietary pattern and risk of Parkinson disease
Abstract
Background—Several studies have shown associations between Parkinson Disease (PD) risk and individual foods and nutrients with inconsistent results.
Objective—We examined associations between dietary patterns and risk of PD in the Health Professionals Follow-Up Study (1986–2002) and the Nurses’ Health Study (1984–2000). Design—We included 49 692 men and 81 676 women free of PD at baseline and used principal components analysis to identify major dietary patterns and the Alternate Healthy Eating Index ...
