Feeling unhappy, depressed or lonely couldspeed upthe ageing processes more than smoking or even certain diseases, researchers have suggested. While everyone has an age based on their date of birth – their “chronologicalage” – they also have what is known as a “biological age”, based on the ageing of the body’s functions, influenced by genetics, lifestyle and other factors. Studies have previously suggested the higher the biological age, the higher the risk of various diseases, and the risk of death.
研究人员表示，感到不快乐、沮丧或孤独，比吸烟甚至某些疾病的导致衰老的过程更快。虽然每个人的年龄都是根据出生日期确定的，即他们的“实际年龄”，但他们也有所谓的“生物年龄”，即受到遗传、生活方式和其他因素的影响，导致身体机能的老化。以前的研究表明，生物年龄越高，各种疾病的风险和死亡风险就越高。
Now researchers say they have created a digital model of ageing, revealing the importance of psychological health. “Your body and soul are connected – this is our main message,” said Fedor Galkin, a co-author of the study and lead scientist at the Hong Kong startup Deep Longevity.
现在，研究人员表示，他们已经创造了一个数字化人体老化模型，揭示出心理健康的重要性。“你的身体和灵魂是相连的——这是我们的核心观点，”该研究的合著者、香港初创公司“寿康集团”的首席科学家费多·加尔金说。
“We demonstrate that psychological factors, such as feeling unhappy or being lonely,add up to1.65 years to one’s biological age,” they write.While Galkin said the figure is an estimate, not least as the model assumes that different feelings such as hopelessness or fearfulness are independent of each other, the study highlights the importance of psychological state in how fast we age.
他们写道：“我们已经证实，心理因素，如感觉不快乐或孤独，可以让一个人的生物年龄变老1.65岁。”翻译划线句，长按文末小程序码打卡，答案下期公布~
“Taking care of your psychological health is the greatest contributor that you can have to slowing down your pace of ageing,” he said. The team also report that people who smoke are predicted to be 15 months older than their non-smoking peers, while being married reduces biological ageby aroundseven months. People living in rural areas are predicted to be almost five months older than theirurbanpeers.
他说：“关爱自己的心理健康是你能做到的减缓衰老速度的最大因素。”研究小组还表示，吸烟的人生物年龄预计比不吸烟的同龄人老15个月，而结婚会使生物年龄年轻约7个月。生活在农村地区的人预测比生活在城市的同龄人要衰老近5个月。
But, he said, it is unlikely isolation and loneliness are truly worse risk factors for health than smoking, while the study only looked at data collected at one point in time. “The researchers did not follow up participants to show that those withpsychologicaldistress actually aged more rapidly,” he said. “It will be important in the future to test whether these predictions are fulfilled by repeating testing over a number of years.”
但是，他说，孤独和寂寞不太可能真的会比吸烟更有害身体健康，因为该研究只观察了在某个时间点收集的数据。他说：“研究人员并没有后续跟进调查参与实验的人员，看那些存在心理问题的人是否真的衰老得更快。”“未来几年，反复进行测试对于验证这些预测是否能够实现来说至关重要。”
