Can coffee be used as a treatment for Parkinson's disease?
Drinking more coffee may help reduce the risk of Parkinson's disease, according to a new study in the United States.
Scientists at the Veterans Management Medical Center in Honolulu, Hawaii found that people who did not drink coffee had a five times higher risk of developing Parkinson's disease than those who drank more than five cups of coffee a day. The researchers followed more than 8000 men for 30 years, and their findings were published in the Journal of the American Medical Association.
Parkinson's disease is a kind of senile disease with neurological lesions. Typical symptoms include limb tremor, stiffness, decreased autonomic activity and so on. Researchers do not know why drinking coffee may reduce the risk of Parkinson's disease. But they speculate that the caffeine in coffee may prevent damage to the nerve cells that cause Parkinson's disease.
Scientists point out that the results they have so far are only preliminary and need to be confirmed by further research. They stressed that it is too early to recommend coffee as a treatment for Parkinson's disease.
