This Common Natural Sweetener May Treat Parkinson's Disease

In a recent video we talked about an uncommon cause for Parkinson's disease:

A protein that accumulates in the appendix.

Contrary to what we thought, this neurodegenerative disease can begin in the digestive system.

According to scientists, there may be an accumulation of a protein called alpha-synuclein in the appendix, a small organ whose function is still a mystery.

The protein's function is still unknown, and it attaches itself to the nerves that connect the gastrointestinal tract (where the appendix is located) to the brain, causing neurotoxic effects that can lead to Parkinson's disease.

Some evidence suggests that the intestine is a good place to pay attention to.

For this reason, people who had their appendix removed have fewer chances of developing Parkinson's.

But it doesn't mean that removing your appendix is a good solution (or the only one). Studies on this subject are still evolving.

Now you must be asking yourself: How can I prevent this disease?

The answer may be in your diet.
