It is known that these pesticides have been banned from household use and gardening.

Initial studies on animals have shown that there is a link between high concentration herbicides and Parkinson's disease. Pesticides contain Rotenon components that can prevent the activity of crystals, which are responsible for energy production for cells. And herbicides will increase the production of oxygen, leading to disruption of the structure of cells.

People who have used this pesticide or those with similar chemical composition are more likely to develop Parkinson's disease.

The study, conducted by American scientists, was tested on 110 people with Parkinson's disease and 358 normal people.
