Could nicotine—yes, the same compound found in cigarettes—actually help people with Parkinson’s Disease?

🧠 In this episode (video here), we dive into the science behind nicotine’s potential neuroprotective effects, how it interacts with dopamine pathways, and what the latest research says about its role in managing Parkinson’s symptoms. We'll cover:

✅ Why smokers seem less likely to develop Parkinson’s

✅ How nicotine affects the brain's dopamine system

✅ Promising animal studies—and why human trials haven’t matched up

✅ Safer delivery options (hint: no smoking required)

This isn’t a smoking promo—it’s real research worth understanding. If you or someone you love is living with Parkinson’s, this is a must-watch.
