Sudden Worsening Of Parkinsons
Parkinson’s disease is a common disorder that affects the brain's ability to control movements. It is occurs mostly after the age of 50. In Parkinson's, the brain cells deteriorate in an area of the brain called the substantia nigra.

Vitamin D And Parkinsons Disease
According to a research carried out by Dr Marian Evatt of Emory University School of Medicine in the US on links between Vitamin D and Parkinson's disease, people with lower levels of Vitamin D are more likely to have Parkinson’s disease. The study also said that the area of brain most affected by Parkinson’s is highly sensitive to vitamin D.
The study measured vitamin D levels in almost 300 people aged around 65, who either had Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease or were generally healthy. More than half of patients with Parkinson’s had low levels of vitamin D, as did 41 percent of those with Alzheimer’s disease. The findings add to the evidence that low vitamin D is associated with Parkinson’s. However, this study is unable on its own to confirm whether a lack of vitamin D is the cause or consequence of having the disease. The result of this study should be interpreted as preliminary without further research to corroborate its finding. More...
