There was a study a couple of months ago that came out.
It was an observational study.
It was sort of, you know, imperfect.
But what they found was that people who live very close to golf courses might have a doubling of risk of Parkinson's disease with the thinking that on these courses, these golf courses, they spray crazy chemicals to make sure that the courses stay nice, like way more than like in our food supply.
But the speculation in this paper was that some of those chemicals are then able to enter groundwater.
So for people who still drink from wells, and if those people live close to golf courses, I think it was like less than a mile from golf courses, there was potentially a doubling of risk for the diagnosis of Parkinson's disease.
Yeah.
So you want to make sure that you're drinking, like, especially if you live in that kind of environment, like, you know, you don't have to get up and move.
But I think just being cognizant of your environment, like the the air pollution side of things, you want to make sure that you're drinking clean water, crucially important stuff.
And like, again, reverse osmosis, I think, can be a really inexpensive.
You can even get countertop reverse osmosis purifiers at this point.
I have no affiliation with people who are who are producing those.
If that's not within reach for you, then just even like a charcoal filter is better than nothing.

No, no, no.
No, I actually have a nuanced take on nicotine.
I'm not extremely anti.
