Re: Pesticides to blame for wave of Parkinson's in Israeli Arab town

[Jim Slattery <jamesslattery1939@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

When looking for causes of PD, we have to consider the fact that apd has 
been known and discribes for at least 100 years, and, some researchers 
believe, has been around for more than 2,000 years.

So we have to look for a cause that existed then, brfore the development of 
modern chemicals.

If we consider the generally accepted proposition that PD combines a genetic 
pre-disposition with an external toxic event, then we might say that ANY 
external event, including exposure to toxic chemicals, might trigger an 
underlying genetic predisposition.
