🚨 Shocking study: Living within 1 mile of a golf course may increase Parkinson’s risk by 126% due to neurotoxic pesticides like paraquat, maneb, chlorpyrifos, and rotenone.

These chemicals, used on greens, harm brain cells by targeting dopamine-producing neurons in the substantia nigra, causing oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and neuron death— mimicking Parkinson’s symptoms.

Exposure happens via airborne drift or contaminated groundwater.
