Long-term negative thinking is more likely to develop Alzheimer's disease

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a de-detox disease. In the early stages, AD is characterized by aggregation and memory loss of amyloid proteins β (A beta) and tau proteins in the brain. Medical treatment of Alzheimer's disease has not been effective since it was discovered in 1907. If the risk factors for Alzheimer's disease are identified, interventions through a healthy lifestyle may reduce the incidence of the disease.A new study has found that repetitive negative thinking (RNT) in life is associated with a decline in cognitive ability and the massive deposition of two harmful proteins that cause Alzheimer's disease. The findings were published in the journal Alzheimer's and Dementia.Specifically, the study included 292 longitudinal cognitively assessed adults (over 55 years of age) from the PREVENT-AD study group, including 113 adults who received amyloid positive electron emission fault scans (PET) and tau-PET scans, and 68 adults (over 55 years of age) who received amyloid-PET scans from the IMAP-plus study group. All participants completed the RNT, Anxiety and Depression Questionnaire.The results showed that people with higher RNT patterns experienced more cognitive decline, memory loss, and higher risk of amyloid and tau deposits during the trial. Depression and anxiety were associated with subsequent cognitive decline, but not amyloid or tau deposits, suggesting that RNT may be the leading cause of the risk of Alzheimer's disease due to depression and anxiety.Dr Natalie Marchan, a psychiatrist and senior researcher in the Department of Mental Health at University College London, said in a statement that repeated negative thinking may increase the risk of Alzheimer's disease. We hope this finding can be used to help people reduce their negative thinking and thus reduce their risk of developing Alzheimer's disease. Of course, this conclusion has some limitations, but more research is needed to prove it.Next, the researchers hope to find ways to reduce RNT, perhaps by reducing the risk of Alzheimer's disease through mindbath training or targeted talk therapy. Dr Marchant and other European researchers are currently working on a large-scale project to see if interventions such as meditation can help reduce the risk of Alzheimer's disease by supporting the mental health of older people.As the saying goes, smile, ten years less. Worried, white head. There has been a lot of research in the past on the benefits of optimism and positives. A 2019 study of nearly 300,000 people in jamA magazine found that people who view life from a positive perspective are more likely than pessimistic people to avoid dying from any type of cardiovascular disease. The study found that optimists had a 35 percent lower risk of major heart complications, such as heart death, stroke or heart attack, than the pessimists in the study.In a new study published the same year in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), a team of researchers from Boston University School of Medicine and the T.H. Chan School of Public Health at Harvard University found that optimistic people were more likely to live longer and live longer, or 85 years or more.Previous studies have shown that "training the brain" can become more optimistic, just like training muscles. The study found that just 30 minutes of meditation a day over a two-week period produced measurable changes in the brain.What about being a man, the most important thing is to be happy. Try to make yourself a little more optimistic.
