And while the preventative benefits of nicotine, found in cigarette smoke and other forms of tobacco, have been the topic of past studies---there has been no scientific evidence to confirm that these products protect against Parkinson’s disease.
For this latest study, Dr. Susan Searles Nielsen led a team of researchers who analyzed data collected from 490 newly diagnosed Parkinson’s disease patients and 644 participants with other neurological conditions as part of a control group.
The results showed that while general consumption of vegetables did not affect the risk for developing Parkinson’s disease, eating edible Solanaceae did. And peppers were found to offer the most protective effect.
