Many many things that we breath do.

My father was showing signs of Parkinson's before he passed. I was asking my doctor whether Parkinson's was genetic. He said that the science said it was highly related to pesticide exposure.

My father grew up as a migrant farm laborer so he was exposed for many years. I suspect it does cause Parkinson's.

I would believe it. My parents owned a nursery/garden center growing up.. My father would spray chemicals on nursery stock and ended up getting cirrhosis of the liver and a transplant. Can it be proven? NO.. but he wasn't a drinker and no one else in his family had this disease.
