Scientists at the University of East Finland followed more than 2,000 middle-aged men for 20 years to find out what factors influenced how many developed cognitive problems in later life.
东芬兰大学研究人员对2000多名中年男子进行了长达20年的跟踪调查研究,以探明哪些因素会对他们晚年的认知问题产生影响。
They found that those who used the sauna between four and seven times a week were 66 per cent less likely to be diagnosed with dementia during the study period compared with those taking a sauna just once a week or less.
他们在研究期间发现,相比每周只蒸1次桑拿甚至频率更低的人,每周蒸4—7次桑拿的人被诊断患上痴呆症的几率会降低66%。
It is the first time that anyone has found a link between sauna use and dementia although previous studies have shown that regular use reduces the risk of dying from all causes and seems to improve heart health.
这是人们第一次发现蒸桑拿与预防痴呆症之间有相关性,不过,此前也有研究表明,经常蒸桑拿可以降低各种疾病的死亡几率,并且对心脏健康有改善效果。
Professor Jari Laukkaben, the study leader, said that sauna bathing may protect both the heart and memory in similar ways
领导此项研究的Jari Laukkaben表示,蒸桑拿对心脏和记忆力的保护机制可能是类似的。
