Dietary Inflammatory Index score and prodromal Parkinson's disease incidence: The HELIAD study

Cultivating the habit of eating pro-inflammatory foods may put older adults on the path to developing Parkinson's disease.

This study examined whether an association exists between the consumption of pro-inflammatory diets and the development of Parkinson's disease in elderly men and women. Researchers performed an in-depth analysis of the dietary and medical records of 1,030 men and women aged 65 years and above.

Researchers discovered that the odds of having Parkinson's disease rose with elevated intake of pro-inflammatory foods. The data from this study demonstrated that high dietary ingestion of pro-inflammatory foods may fuel the development of Parkinson's disease in older adults.
