Caffeine may prevent Parkinson's disease

According to the latest study by American scientists, caffeine may help control Parkinson's disease and research has opened a new door for treatment for the disease.

The study was conducted at the Research Institute of McGill University Medical Center, recently published in the Journal of Neurology, the official journal of the American Academy of Neurology.

Researchers conducted a study on a group of 61 people with Parkinson's by providing them with caffeine equivalent to four cups of coffee a day for six weeks.

According to the study's author, Dr. Ronald Postuma said that those who received caffeine supplement had signs of improving the disease, including changes in movement speed.

However, scientists said that to clarify the effects of caffeine on this disease, it is necessary to conduct large-scale studies and in the long term to clarify the effects and it is considered as an option to treat Parkinson's disease.

Dr. Postuma said: "Caffeine may be useful as a supplement and help reduce the number of patients suffering from this disease."

Caffeine is often found in coffee, tea and soft drinks, it can affect the central nervous system and cardiovascular system, and can reduce fatigue and increase alertness to the body.

Research has shown that people who regularly drink coffee are less likely to have Parkinson's disease, but so far no studies have examined the direct clinical effects of these substances on the body. .
