Jane Brody of the New York Times wrote a recent review of a new book, co-written by several experts in the field of neurology. These include Dr. Ray Dorsey, neurologist at the University of Rochester; Todd Sherer, neuroscientist with the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research; Dr. Michael S. Okun, neurologist at my other hometown at the University of Florida; and Dr. Bastiaan R. Bloem, neurologist at Radboud University Nijmegen Medical Center in the Netherlands.
The book titled “Ending Parkinson’s Disease” calls the occurrence of PD a “man-made pandemic” with references to to many studies that show the high correlation of PD to the exposure to toxic chemicals on farms and in the workplace, as well as animal studies in which PD symptoms were replicated.
Here’s one YouTube video about the book:
And here’s a forty minute Zoom presentation by Dr. Michael Okun at the University of Florida on the book’s topics. (unfortunately, there are distracting sounds from participants/attendees who didn’t mute their microphones):
My next action will be to order the book.
