Parkinson Disease

Parkinson's disease is a chronic, degenerative brain disorder that affects movement. It typically develops in people over 50 and causes motor symptoms like tremors, rigidity, and slowed movement. While there is no cure for Parkinson's, treatments can provide relief of symptoms, such as medications like levodopa and bromocriptine. Lifestyle factors like exercise and consuming coffee, vitamin B6, and vitamin E may also help prevent or slow the progression of the disease.
