Brett Favre shared a candid update on his Parkinson’s disease one year after revealing his diagnosis. Speaking on his podcast, the Hall of Fame quarterback said he is in the early stages, with stiffness and rigidity as his main symptoms.

Parkinson’s disease affects more than just movement; diet plays an essential role in managing symptoms and supporting medication effectiveness. While no diet can cure Parkinson’s, certain foods can worsen symptoms, interfere with medications, or make day-to-day management more difficult. By understanding what to avoid and making strategic dietary adjustments, people with Parkinson’s can feel more…
Neurodegenerative diseases slowly damage the brain and nervous system, affecting millions of people worldwide. Two of the most common conditions are Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD). While they can seem similar because both get worse over time, they are different in important ways. Alzheimer’s mostly affects memory and thinking, making it hard to…

Parkinson’s disease (Parkinson’s disease ) is commonly associated with motor symptoms like tremors, rigidity, and slowed movements, but non-motor signs, particularly skin-related issues, are often overlooked. Research shows that skin manifestations, including dryness, seborrheic dermatitis, excessive sweating, and vascular changes, are highly prevalent among Parkinson’s disease patients and can significantly impact quality of life.

The degeneration of nerve cells leads to a range of symptoms, including tremors, stiffness, and slowness of movement. Globally, Parkinson’s disease (PD) affects millions….

While hand tremors are the most well-known symptom, there are many subtler indicators that can appear years before a diagnosis. According to Victoria Baggaley, senior helpline advisor at Parkinson’s UK, and Dr. Simon Stott, director at…
A recent study reveals that overworking brain cells may contribute to Parkinson’s disease. Scientists at Gladstone Institutes discovered that chronic activation of specific neurons leads to their degeneration, mirroring the pattern observed in Parkinson’s patients. This finding suggests that modulating neuronal activity could potentially protect vulnerable cells and slow the progression of the disease. Over…
