NIH Study Finds Two Pesticides Associated with Parkinson's Disease
http://www.nih.gov/news/health/feb2011/niehs-11.htm
"New research shows a link between use of two pesticides, rotenone and paraquat, and Parkinson's disease. People who used either pesticide developed Parkinson's disease approximately 2.5 times more often than non-users."
