I've drunk gallons of coffee since I was 9 or 10. Everyone in Denmark drinks coffee. At 3:00 pm (or 15 o'clock) everything stops, and afternoon coffee is had by all, and I mean all. A Dane can not think of skipping afternoon coffee. Add to that the morning coffee, the elevenses coffee, and the after dinner and occasional evening coffee, and here should be a country free of PD - but alas, Denmark has a high incidence of PD in a small population.
And then the vegetables - they are no help either. I have eaten 'health foods' all my life. My mother was very keen on reading up on, and cooking health foods, and my own cooking has alway been as healthy and as full of vegetables as the diet I grew up eating - and still, I have PD.
Strangely, I don't like the taste of coffee any more. Ever since I began to take Requip, coffee, wine and beer no longer taste right to me, and I miss them.
