If you live near a golf course....move.

People who live near golf courses may be 126% more likely to develop Parkinson’s disease, due to the pesticides used on the expansive lawns.

“The greatest risk of PD was found within 1 to 3 miles of a golf course and risk generally decreased with distance,” the study found. “Living within 1 mile of a golf course was associated with 126% increased odds of PD compared with those living farther than 6 miles away from a golf course.”

The risk of Parkinson’s disease was nearly double for those whose homes shared water sources with the golf courses.

This is a great post. Forever chemicals are severely harming the population.

Everything is killing me, might as well enjoy life while I’m dying.

That would imply there’s nothing that can be done about it. We started de-chemicalling our house/food/water/lifestyle over 10 years ago.

Maybe I could blame my yips on this.

I you live on or near a golf course that Myron or I play, you may be in danger of being beaned by an errant shot. If anyone has any questions, please ask the older lady that lives on the other side of the water on the first hole at Shale Creek.
