And wow... just finishing the documentary and hit the part where he talks about being diagnosed with Parkinson's..

There you go... that Parkinson's IS from the braces.

I was just reading a study that came out recently about a correlation with proximity to a golf course and getting diagnosed with Parkinson's. https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle/2833716

It would be wild if that was because of people being able to afford expensive orthodontic treatment, instead of exposure to pesticides/fertilizers, like they're speculating.

for sure.. i think weath leads to much higher tendency to do expensive 'wrong' dentla treatments that lead to neurological disease

you will barely find any neurological disease in poor 3rd world countries

I love Ken's "experience-based wisdom." I enjoyed the thoughts on Brett Favre paired with Ken's personal experience. Makes sense!
