记忆力的好坏不是年龄决定

　　The investigators also noticed that memory improvements in the calorie-restricted group correlated with decreases in insulin levels and "biomarkers" of inflammation in the body, and that these changes were most pronounced in those individuals who stuck closest to the prescribed calorie-restricted diet.

　　在这个调查中还注意到，在热量受限组，记忆力提升与身体里胰岛素减少和出现炎症的“生物标记”有关。这些改变在那些严格坚持热量限制饮食方式的人中最为明显。

　　"To our knowledge, the current results provide the first experimental evidence in humans that caloric restriction improves memory in the elderly," Witte and colleagues note.

　　“据我们所知，目前的结果提供了第一个试验证据，说明在人群中限制热量可以提高上了年纪的人的记忆能力。”Witt和他的同事如是说。

　　The results of this study, they add, "may help to develop new prevention and treatment strategies for maintaining cognitive health into old age."

　　他们补充说:“这次研究的结果，有助于开发新的保护和治疗策略来保持晚年健康的认知能力。”
