A study published in Lancet Neurology, a monthly UK medical journal, suggests that Vitamin E gained from dietary sources may help Parkinson's disease.
The study was conducted by Dr. Mayhar Etminan and colleges from Queen's University in Canada. This team of researchers measured data from eight studies previously published between the years 1966 and 2005, in hope of determining whether vitamins E, C and the nutrient beta carotene, have any effects on Parkinson's Disease.

Parkinson's disease is a degenerative disorder that affects the central nervous system. It can be characterized by tremor, rigidity and a slowing, or complete loss, of physical movement. It may also cause cognitive dysfunction and language issues.
Parkinson's disease is oftentimes hard to diagnose and although it has no cure, medications and surgery can provide some relief from symptoms.
The study concluded that although vitamin C and the nutrient beta carotene didn't seem to have any effect on the disease, it appeared that moderate and high amounts of vitamin E consumed through one's diet did have a positive effect and seemed to help protect against the development of the disease. Although to be sure, a controlled study with subjects, instead of simply data, will need to be held to determine if these results can be confirmed.
Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin and a powerful antioxidant that protects against cell damage caused by free radicals. The recommended daily intake of vitamin E from food is 15 milligrams. Vitamin E deficiency is rare in humans, yet there have been studies suggesting that too much vitamin E, usually gaining through supplementation, can be dangerous.
Green leafy vegetables, nuts and vegetable oils are the main dietary sources of vitamin E, such as spinach, almonds, kale, broccoli, turnip greens, peanuts, avacado, olive oil, wheat germ and safflower oil.
Although the study was an interesting find, it is still too early to tell whether vitamin E health supplements would have the same affect as natural, dietary vitamin E.
Experts are warning against people buying vitamin E supplements to help ward off the disease, especially since too much vitamin E can be toxic (fat soluble vitamins are more likely to achieve toxicity than water soluble vitamins).
More studies will be held to determine if vitamin E can actually help Parkinson's disease.

Black Friday Green Pasture X-FACTOR GOLD High-Vitamin Butter Oil 500 mg 120 Capsules Overview
Maximum Nutrition Comes From Grass Fed CowsDr. Weston A. Price was a dentist and nutritionist who traveled all over the world in the 1930's to study the diets different populations. His research unearthed "Activator X", a fat-soluble nutrient found only in butter and the meat of animals fed a diet of green grass. Green Pasture X-Factor Gold High Vitamin Butter Oil is extracted without heat from milk that has been produced by cows which feed on 100% rapidly growing green grass. The combination of the specific, irrigated grass, the timing of the grazing, the climate, and the extraction process are all important to ensure the maximum level of X Factor in Green Pasture Butter Oil.Dr. Price believed this high vitamin butter oil has amazing healing properties, especially when combined with cod liver oil. Activator X acts as a catalyst to help the body absorb and utilize minerals and can help the body rebuild tissue, bones and teeth. Green Pasture X Factor gold high vitamin butter oil is an important source of Vitamins A, K and CoQ enzymes.Butter received much bad press when it was linked to heart disease and weight gain. Turns out that those allegations were wrong. It was in the best interest of the large manufacturers of corn and soybean oil to give butter a bad rap. You've probably heard reports about the more recent research showing vegetable oils, and their associated trans-fatty acids, are the oils to avoid. The truth is, butter contains antioxidants that can protect our arteries from free radical damage, thereby helping to fight heart disease. Butter also contains lecithin, a substance that aids in the proper assimilation and metabolism of cholesterol and other fat constituents. Trust what your great-grandparents ate. Before 1920, coronary heart disease was rare, today it is responsible for 40% of all US deaths. And we consume 1/5 of the butter our great-grandparents ate. The statistics speak for themselves. Enjoy your butter (from pastured, grass-fed cows).SAVE NOW on Black Friday offers below!
