Eating vegetables keeps brain young
世の中の母親や妻が言うでしょうね、”前から私が何度も言っているでしょう。私の言うことは信じないんだから!”
New research on vegetables and aging givesmothers another reason to say, "I told you so."
野菜と老化の関係についての研究結果です。
It found that eating vegetables appears to help keep the brain young and may slow the mental decline sometimes associated with growing old.
1日に2回野菜を摂っている人と摂らない人では・・・・
On measures of mental sharpness, older people who ate more than two servings of vegetables daily appeared about five years younger at the end of the six-year study than those who ate few or no vegetables.
この5歳若く見えるという科学的根拠はなんなんですかねぇ?
ビタミンEが老化防止(抗酸化剤)のようです。
Green leafy vegetables including spinatch, kale and colards appear to be the most beneficial.
(ちなみに、青汁はkale juiceと言います。spinatchはポパイで中高年の方に有名なほうれんそうです。 colardsはキャベツのようなもの。)
The researchers said that may be because they contain healthy amounts of vitamin E, an antioxidant that is believed to help fight chemicals produced by the body that can damage cells.
