常喝蜂蜜可延缓衰老降低焦虑 ~ Take more Honey

I like to share this with my bloggers buddies, take honey it's will slow down the aging speed...hahaha getting younger...crazy liao.

据英国《每日邮报》报道,一项最新研究显示,蜂蜜有助于延缓衰老,减轻焦虑。在饮食中加入蜂蜜,用于试验的老鼠的记忆力提高,焦虑症状得到缓解。

新西兰怀卡托大学的林恩·科普里斯和尼卡拉·斯塔克通过老鼠进行了这项试验。他们分别在老鼠的食物中掺入10%的蜂蜜、8%的蔗糖、不掺入任何糖类,持续喂养了一年。在试验开始时,这些老鼠刚出生两个月。

科学家每隔三个月对这些老鼠进行一次有目的的焦虑和空间记忆测试,得出评估结果。他们发现,用蜂蜜喂养的老鼠走出复杂的迷宫的次数是普通老鼠的两倍,位居第二的是用蔗糖喂养的老鼠。这显示出它们的焦虑症状较轻。它们还更有可能进这个Y型迷宫的新奇,这显示它们知道自己以前曾呆在哪里,因此它们拥有更好的空间记忆能力。

斯塔克博士说:“加入蜂蜜的饮食可能在衰老的过程中,有利于缓解焦虑症状,并提高记忆力。”她认为这一结果应该归功于蜂蜜的抗氧化剂性质,这在以前在人类身上已经得到验证。在古代,人类就将蜂蜜当作食品、医药和美容手段。通过养蜂获得蜂蜜的时间可以上溯到至少公元前700年。蜜蜂将唾液与花蜜结合,产生化学反应,产生蜂蜜。在溃疡、烧伤和创伤治疗过程中,它被当作防腐治疗剂。它还包含各种各样的微量元素,有助于预防一些癌症和抗感冒。

玛丽说的不错:"a cup of honey water a day, keep the doctor away." 前些日子我患了重感冒,也是靠 honey water + lemon juice 好起来的。
