i always thought there was a relationship between celiac disease and parkinson. when michael j. fox, the actor was diagnosed, i tried to write him to suggest he go on a gluten free diet. i suggested it to the parkinson group that was connected to his website, but they responded telling me there was no connection. michael j. fox is from canada, where there is a higher incidence of celiac disease. i saw him on the rachel ray show where he talked about what he ate for breakfast and it was high in gluten.
the reason i myself thought there was a connection is because when i am exposed to gluten i feel just like someone who has parkinson.
i wish there was a way to reach michael j. fox to tell him to give a gluten free diet a try. also emily if you could get your parents to be gluten free that would be
