Special report from Xinhua News Agency A study in the United States shows that although there is no clear causal relationship, adults with adequate drinking may be healthier, have lower chronic diseases and have longer life than those with insufficient drinking. Related research reports were published by the British magazine "E Biological Medicine".

The National Institute of Health and Public Service, under the Department of Health and Public Service, published a news draft on January 2, saying that researchers collected health data from 11,255 adults over 30 years and determined that they had diagnosed their condition five times during this period to analyze the relationship between serum calculi and health in their bodies. Among them, the first two cases occurred when the subject was more than 50 years old, and the last time was between 70 and 90 years old.

Serum calves is blood calves. When the water in the human body is sufficient, the blood calves content will decrease, otherwise it will increase. To prevent deviations in the results, the serum calenders of the research object were all within a normal range at the beginning of the study, that is, 135~146mmol/L. The results of the

analysis showed that the biological aging phenomenon was more obvious in people with high serum levels in normal range than those with medium ranges in the same range. In other words, their cardiovascular system is more likely to have problems, lung function is more likely to decline, and internal inflammation is more likely to occur. In addition, within the normal range, the higher the serum hydration level, the higher the risk of heart failure, medium wind, atrial, peripheral dysfunction, chronic lung disease, diabetes, and dementia. "The results show that appropriate amount of water supplement can prolong aging and prolong healthy survival time," said Dr. Demitreeva, a researcher at the Cardiovascular Regeneration Medical Laboratory of the National Institute of Cardiology, Lung and Blood Institute, one of the authors of the report. She said that for those with serum calcification of 142mmol/L or above, they may benefit from sufficient drinking. Most people can reach the recommended standard for women to consume 1.5 to 2.2 liters of water per day and 2 to 3 liters of water per day for men by drinking more water, drinking juice or eating rich fruits and vegetables.

Researchers also said that this study does not prove that there is a causal relationship between sufficient drinking and anti-aging, and requires more serious trials to explore.
