More comprehensive and fully referenced details of the toxic causes of Parkinson's Disease are on the following web page :
http://p4.forumforfree.com/toxic-cau...arkinsons.html This is based on a review of the entire sientific literature concerning toxic causes of Parkinson's Disease. The list is not limited. These are all that are known in the scientific literature, although of course probably not all toxic causes are yet known. |

It is not just the arms, legs, head and trunk and the like that are affected in Parkinson's Disease. There are muscles around the stomach, small gut and oesophagus. These are also affected as, due to the excessive muscle contraction, there is reduced motility in them. So constipation can occur simultaneously with Parkinson's Disease, because both have excessive muscle contraction as their root cause.
The following is based on a review of all the scientific literature concerning constipation in Parkinson's Disease : Most people with Parkinson's Disease suffer from constipation [1-7]. This can be due to slow transit through the colon [6,7], and excessive contraction of the **** sphincter [7]. [1] Journal of Neurology [2004] 251 Supplement 7 : vII 18-23 (A.Ueki. M.Otsuka) [2] Movement Disorders [2000] 15 (1) : 71-76 (F.Stocchi, D.Badiali, L.Vacca, L.D'Alba, F.Bracci, S.Ruggieri, M.Torti, A.Berardelli, E.Corazziari) [3] American Journal of Gastroenterology [1994] 89 (1) : 15-25 (L.L.Edwards, E.M.Quigley, R.K.Harned, R.Hofman, R.F.Pfeiffer) [4] Movement Disorders [1993] 8 (1) : 83-86 (L.Edwards, E.M.Quigley, R.Hofman, R.F.Pfeiffer) [5] European Neurology [1992] 32 (3) : 134-140 (C.Singer, W.J.Weiner, J.R.Sanchez-Ramos) [6] Wiener Klinische Wochenschrift [1991] 69 (20) : 906-909 (W.H.Jost, B.Schimrigk) [7] Wiener Klinische Wochenschrift [1998] 110 (15) : 535-537 (W.H.Jost, B.Schrank) However, there are other factors that can cause constipation. This is why there are people with constipation who do not have Parkinson's Disease, and others with Parkinson's Disease that don't get constipation. |
