Vitamin B-6 Linked to Lower Risk of Parkinson's Disease
Increased intake of vitamin B-6 from diet and supplements could cut the risk of Parkinson's disease by half, suggests a prospective study from the Netherlands. After an average of ten years of follow up, and using a semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire, physical examinations of the subjects, including neurological exams, were conducted at both baseline and three year intervals.
The average vitamin B-6 intake was 1.63 milligrams per day, the average B-12 intake was 5.3 micrograms per day, and the average folate intake was 218.7 micrograms per day. The researchers found that people who had daily vitamin B-6 intakes of 230.9 micrograms or more had an associated risk of developing Parkinson's Disease 54 percent lower than people who had average daily intakes lower than 185.1 micrograms.
"Because oxidative stress may be prominent in Parkinson's disease pathogenesis, higher vitamin B-6 intake may thus reduce Parkinson's disease risk through antioxidant effects," said the authors of the study.
