Scientists at the University of Florida, performed a study where they tracked 128 adults in midlife and older age from four continents over a period of two years. Nearly 70% of the participants were women and most were living with chronic pain related to or at risk of knee osteoarthritis.
Using advanced MRI scans and machine learning techniques, researchers estimated each participant's 'brain age' and compared it with their actual age. Those who reported the healthiest mix of psychological and lifestyle factors had brains that appeared up to eight years younger than expected.
They found that four habits including:
- optimism,
- getting enough deep sleep,
- managing stress,
- having strong social.
All these support were linked to the younger-looking brains on the scans. Other behaviours linked to a healthier brain ageing were avoiding smoking and maintaining a healthy body weight.
