- Scientists Sound Alarm: Living Near A Golf Course Raises . . .
People living within a mile of a golf course showed 126% higher risk of Parkinson’s than those living beyond six miles Residents between one and two miles away had nearly triple the risk
- Proximity to Golf Courses and Risk of Parkinson Disease
Taken together, our study complements, and expands on, the limited research on golf courses as a risk factor for PD and further suggests that both vulnerable drinking water and airborne pollutant exposure may contribute to risk for developing PD near golf courses
- Living Near a Golf Course Dramatically Raises Risk of Parkinson’s
A: Yes European golf courses generally pose less pesticide risk because of stricter regulations For example, median pesticide hazard scores in Denmark are hundreds of times lower than in states like Florida Q: Does filtering my drinking water help lower Parkinson’s risk if I live near a golf course? A: Yes
- Living Near a Golf Course Linked to Parkinson’s. What to Do
People residing within 3 miles of a course faced a greater risk of developing Parkinson’s disease, the new study shows Most of those people -- 90% -- shared a groundwater-sourced water
- Controversial New Study Links Parkinsons With Living Near a . . .
After adjusting for various neighborhood characteristics, the team found that living within a mile (1 6 kilometers) of a golf course was associated with a 126 percent increased risk of developing Parkinson's, compared to those living more than 6 miles (nearly 10 kilometers) away
- Proximity to Golf Courses and Risk of Parkinson Disease
In this population-based case-control study, the greatest risk of PD was found within 1 to 3 miles of a golf course and risk generally decreased with distance Associations with the largest effect sizes were in water service areas with a golf course and in vulnerable ground water regions
