他她话题:逛街购物真能延年益寿吗?  

Shopoholics have a new excuse: Daily shopping could add years to your life—at least if you’re over 65
suggest Taiwanese researchers.
购物狂们又找到一个购物的新借口：台湾研究人员称：日常购物可以延年益寿——如果你已经是65岁以上的老人。
Their study of nearly 2
000 elderly men and women who still lived in their own homes found that regular shoppers lived longer than those who shopped just once a week or less
even after adjusting for physical limitations and cognitive decline.
从他们对2000名依然还自己生活的老年男性和女性做的调查发现：经常购物者比那些每周只购一次物或者购物次数更少的人寿命更长一些。经常购物甚至还可以调整生理限制和认知衰退。
And despite the stereotypical male aversion to shopping
they may benefit even more than women. Men who headed for the shops every day reduced their chances of dying by 28 percent
pared to women
who cut their chances by 23 percent.
尽管男性对于购物有他们老一套的见解，但是他们从中得到的益处比女性多。相比与女性购物能减少23%的死亡率，男性购物可以减少28%的死亡率。
Shopping may prolong lifespans because it gives people the opportunity to interact socially and to exercise. Buying fresh food daily may also mean a more healthful diet.
购物之所以可以延长人们的生命是因为它为人们社交互动和运动创造了机会。每天购买新鲜的食物也让饮食更健康。
“Shopping requires that you physically move from one place to another
be able to handle money
make decisions
etc. All of those characteristics…are linked to health
” said S. Jay Olshansky
professor of public health and a senior research scientist with the Center on Aging at the University of Illinois.
“购物需要你的身体从一个地方运动到另一个地方，有能力处理金钱，做出决定等等。所有的这些特性都和健康有关系。”伊利诺伊斯大学资深老龄研究中心的科学家和公共健康教授 Olshansky说。
The researchers at the National Health Research Institutes in Zhunan
Taiwan add that shopping is often done for pleasure
which increases psychological well-being. And “pared to other types of leisure-time physical activity
like formal exercise
which usually requires motivation and sometimes professional instruction
shopping activity is easier to undertake and maintain.”
台湾竹南国家健康研究中心的研究员补充道：“购物常常是为了快乐，这种快乐可以增加心理幸福感。 “和其他业余时间的运动相比，比如那些需要动力和专业指导的专业运动，购物活动则是更加容易进行和保持。”
