New research suggests Parkinson's disease could start in your gut
SUMMARY: Parkinson’s disease is a degenerative disorder characterized by tremors, stiffness, and mental health issues, affecting nearly 90,000 people annually and around 10 million globally. Research suggests it may originate in the gut and spread to the brain. Duke University gastroenterologist Roger Little is investigating this gut-brain connection, focusing on specific gut cells that communicate with the brain. His studies on protein dysfunction and cell clumping, known as Lewy bodies, could lead to early interventions before symptoms develop. Other researchers are also exploring this connection to potentially prevent Parkinson’s and other neurodegenerative diseases.
It’s estimated each year, 90,000 people are diagnosed with the disease and up to 10 million people worldwide are living with it. However, no one knows what causes Parkinson’s but new research may help figure out how it spreads.

U.S. confirms North Korea troops are in Russia | FOX 7 Austin
SUMMARY: The U.S. confirms that North Korean troops, estimated at 3,000, are currently training in Russia, likely to support its operations in Ukraine. South Korean intelligence indicates that Russia is preparing to deploy more North Korean soldiers, potentially increasing their numbers to 10,000 by December. These troops are reportedly being trained in basic military operations and advanced tactics, including drone warfare. The collaboration suggests Russia’s manpower shortages. Ukraine’s president warns that North Korea’s involvement in the conflict underscores a lack of international pressure on Moscow and urges other nations to strengthen their support for peace efforts.
The U.S. says North Korean troops are in Russia right now but the Defense Department is unsure of their exact mission. The assumption is that they’re trying to help Russia in its war with Ukraine. FOX’s Rebekah Castor has the latest.
