Chronic constipation, nausea, gastrointestinal problems, often precede a Parkinson’s diagnosis. This has been experienced by many Parkinson’s patients, according to Trisha Pasricha, MD, a gastroenterologist at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and instructor of medicine at Harvard Medical School. Dr. Pasricha was interviewed in a September 8 2024 Fox Digital News article.
The Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) in Boston conducted a study which showing that those who sustained damage to the upper gut lining (gastrointestinal (GI) tract) are 76% more likely to develop Parkinson’s disease.
The soft gut lining in our digestive system can be damaged by excessive eating of foods containing lectin for example. In addition, Pasricha said taking NSAIDs like ibuprofen, drinking alcohol, stress or bacteria like H. pylori,” can be damaging to our gut lining.
