研究显示巧克力可抵抗老年人记忆衰退
A new study finds a compound in chocolate called flavanol can help reverse memory loss in older adults. Our doctor B talked about this now,which is the first study which he said is found by Mars and Paul and of course they make chocolate bars. But still there is some promise here.
一项新的研究发现，巧克力中一种叫做黄烷醇的化合物可以帮助抵抗老年人记忆力衰退。我们的医生现在和我们探讨一下这个话题。这是我们看到的首个这样的研究。是由Mars和Paul进行的。他们指的是巧克力棒。但是仍然给我们带来一些希望。
Yes, there is. I mean this is interesting. it’s promising. Mike, my confession, I am a big chocolate eater. I love chocolate. Yeah, well, we will get to that. They’ve been looking for years for ways to reverse or prevent that age-associated declining memory. We all have that. We forget things. And they found that animals that ate flavanols, this compound that’s in chocolate, hitting increased blood flow into the part of the brain that’s related to memory. Animals were effective. So they tried it on people, small group of people and they’ve found people who read high dietary intake in flavanols, they remembered more and their blood flowed that part of the brain increased.
是的。我是说，很有趣，很有希望。我是一个巧克力迷，非常喜欢吃巧克力。是的，我们都是如此。多年来，他们一直寻找抵抗或预防与年龄有关的记忆衰退的方法。我们都有这种问题存在。我们会健忘。巧克力中含有黄烷醇。他们发现吃黄烷醇的动物可以向大脑中负责记忆的部分泵入更多血液。在动物身上非常有效。他们也对人进行了实验，接受实验的是一个小群体。他们发现摄入黄烷醇较多的人记忆力更强，向大脑流入的血液量增加。
So how much chocolate are we talking about here?
那么，应该吃多少巧克力呢？
All right. It’s not what I have. I confess that every night I have a piece of dark chocolate. You would have to have equivalent to 20 chocolate bars a day, a day, to take enough flavanols. It’s not the milk chocolate that so many people like. That will hit you waistline.That will hit diabetes. (There is no flavanol in the milk chocolate?) There is, but either so much sugar and so little. You want a coco level above like 85%. Yeah, yes, it’s a lot.
好的。根据我个人的情况，我每晚都会吃一块黑巧克力。要获得足够的黄烷醇，你每天可能需要吃相当于20个巧克力棒。不是许多人喜欢的牛奶巧克力。这会让你的腰围增加，导致糖尿病。（牛奶巧克力中没有黄烷醇吗？）有，但是也有很多糖，而黄烷醇的量很少。你需要可可含量超过80%的巧克力。是的，含量很高。
All right, what about if we don’t want to enjoy the dark chocolate, not a fan, but want those flavanols, what for me?
好的，如果我们不喜欢吃黑巧克力，又想获得足够的黄烷醇呢？
So you know all these fruits, onions, apples, red grapes, they all have flavanols. If you want to get dosing this add, they are all good foods for you anyway. But again there is a lot more work. This turn set up a bigger study. We want to see can this work because you can take out the flavanols and gives it in capsule form. But for now, dark chocolate is still a wonderful, wonderful thing.
你知道，所有的水果，洋葱，苹果，红葡萄中都含有黄烷醇。如果你想要增加黄烷醇的摄入量，这些都是很好的食物。但是要强调一点，一切含有待确定，还有很多工作要做。我们要看一下该研究能否得到确定，或许可以生产出胶囊形式的黄烷醇。但是就现在来说，黑巧克力仍然是非常好的食物。
