#Study shows that the higher the person, the easier it is to get sick#

Rush on the hot search and cause heated discussion among netizens

This hot search shows that a new study from the University of Colorado in the United States has recently found that height may also increase the risk of nerve, skin, or certain heart disease. This is by far the largest study of height and disease correlation. Related research results have been published in the "Public Science Library -Genetics" magazine.

The higher you, the higher the risk of illness

Sridharaan Raghavan at the University of Colorado and colleagues studied 3,290 genetic variants known to have affected height, and they were related to more than 1,000 clinical characteristics. It is confirmed that the higher height of genetic prediction will increase the risk of atrial fibrillation (palpitations) and circulating system problems. They also found that having genes related to higher height increase the risk of nerve injury, skin and bone infections. This indicates that measuring someone's height may be a way to quickly and simple to determine the risk of the disease.

Raghavan said, "Our discovery is the first step to incorporate the height into the risk assessment of the disease, because we determine that the higher height may be a risk factor."

Bring a long life advantage?

According to the Life Times, the University of Hawaii tracked more than 8,000 people for 50 years and found that 156 cm and below have the longest life. Regardless of men and women, tall figures are more likely to have cancer than those with dwarf figures.

Why can short people better resist cancer? One theory believes that high people may have a higher level of insulin growth factor, which is related to the growth of hormones and cancer. Another theory believes that the high organs of the tall man are large, the overall cells are more, and the chance of cell variation is also higher. The short human body is small, the heart is closer to various organs, and blood nutrients are easier to reach, which is conducive to staying from the disease.

Children's physique is also related to middle -aged cognitive ability

Children's physique is related to middle -aged cognitive ability

According to Xinhua News Agency yesterday (June 19), a follow -up study in Australia showed that the performance in physical testing in childhood was related to the cognitive ability of the middle age, and this association was not subject to the academic ability of the childhood, the socioeconomic ability, the socioeconomic and economy of the childhood, the socio -economic economy The status and whether the middle -aged period of smoking and drinking are affected. This shows that the protection strategy to prevent cognitive degradation may need to be implemented in advance.

Studies have shown that participants with higher levels of cardiopulmonary and muscle health and lower waist and hips during childhood, in the middle age, the brain processing information speed, attention and overall cognitive ability test scores are higher.

Related papers have been published in the "Sports Science and Medical Journal". Michel Calizia, one of the research leaders and associate professor of the Australian National Healthy Aging Center, said that due to the decline in cognitive ability, it may begin as early Cognitive disorders and dementia are more likely to be, so it is important to determine the risk factors that may lead to decline in early years in early life.

Human height cannot be changed

Tall people don't have to worry

The impact of height on life is not directly

Healthy living habits are

The most important factor in determining the length of life

Remind again:

Control diet, exercise regularly, sufficient sleep

It is the most practical longevity secret recipe
