NFOSD is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that seeks to improve the quality of life of those suffering from swallowing disorders (dysphagia).

Fast facts:
Swallowing difficulty can occur at any stage of Parkinson's disease (PD).
The leading cause of death in Parkinson's is aspiration pneumonia due to swallowing disorders.
Difficulty swallowing, called dysphagia, can happen at any stage of Parkinson disease.
Signs and symptoms can range from mild to severe and may include: difficulty swallowing certain foods or liquids, coughing or throat clearing during or after eating/drinking, and feeling as if food is getting stuck.
As the disease progresses, swallowing can become severely compromised and food/liquid can get into the lungs, causing aspiration pneumonia.
Aspiration pneumonia is the leading cause of death in PD.

Difficulty swallowing is a problem of old age in general.

My wife saw a Japanese documentary on the subject and what they recommend is a simple exercise that you do once a day.

They recommend saying some words to force the jaw to exercise.

And to replicate that in English, I suggest you say the words "Youuu BADDDDDDDDD" about 30 times. And when you say "BADDDDD", open up your mouth wide and stick your tougue out.

Needless to say, don't do this at the shopping mall... do it in the car while you're driven. It's a great daily way to exercise the tongue, jaw and neck muscles... which should also slow the wrinkling of the neck skin BTW.

Check it out. It works for me because I am less apt to have trouble swallowing.

GO TRUMP!

And some of us just have difficulty in general. In my childhood found that to be true. Thought it might have been due to walking into a very large spider web while my mouth was open, talking, and a portion was swallowed. At times, during my 20s or 30s, eating could be problem as well. Can’t believe this would be anything such as Parkinson because of the different examinations over the past 10 years surely something would have shown its ugly head. Old age? At 20 years old?? Thank you for the exercise suggestion. Will add this to my sit ups while doing sit ups :-)

Interesting. I learned some facial excersices long ago, from a cheapie little book from a thrift store. Hard to describe without illustrations, but I did them for years just for the heckuvit and it felt energizing. I do one still, maybe I’ll try to remember the others too:

Open eyes as wide as possible and raise eyebrows

Open mouth as wide as possible

Stick tonuge out as far as possible

Say AAAAAAHHHHHHHH loudly

repeat

it really sounds like the same exercise.

Oddly enough (???) I have hardly any wrinkles on face or neck despite being in mid 60s. Because I did those exericses? Or at least the last one? Or maybe because I’ve avoided tanning my whole life, with British Isles ancestor skin, the sun and I do not mix well.

OK, interesting. Congratulations on your wrinkle-resistant neck!

Japanese television (NHK) has many TV shows that give instruction on all sorts of life-enriching, health strategies.

Let me give you more detail on this one.

The full instruction was to say the Japanese phonetic alphabet Ah, Ee, Uu, A, Oh, then Baaaaaaay (and the Baaay is where you stretch your tongue out.

And I think you can see that it works the different shapes of the mouth and tongue -- with the last part being probably the most important.

V K, I do this exercise at home when I'm on the Stairmaster machine -- same deal you're doing with the sit ups.

Let's be like Trump and TRiUMPh over old age!

Rest of family all got the usual wrinkles, so who knows....I used to do the facial exercises in the car with my kids in tow. Maybe freaked out some drivers...
