Phoenix, AZ, October 29, 2026 —
The Aging Untold program discusses several subtle signs that may appear early in Parkinson’s disease, including loss of smell, constipation and changes in handwriting. The program notes that these indicators can occur before tremors and says they warrant a conversation with a doctor.
The signs highlighted are varied: one involves smell, another concerns digestion, and a third is a change in handwriting. The summary of the program’s discussion does not provide further detail about how these changes may present or how they are assessed.
The program’s account places the listed indicators before tremors, but does not provide a timeline or say how long before tremors they might occur. It also does not state how common the signs are, whether they occur together, or whether any one of them indicates Parkinson’s disease. No study, medical expert, or additional source is identified in the summary.
The discussion recommends speaking with a doctor about these subtle indicators. It does not describe a diagnostic process, provide treatment information, or say what steps might follow a conversation with a physician. The program’s specific advice is limited to raising the signs with a doctor rather than treating them as a diagnosis on their own.
Further details about the episode—including when it aired, who took part, and what evidence or sources informed the discussion—were not provided. The information available centers on the three signs named by the program and its point that they may precede tremors.
