[2023·济南市高三学情诊断考试] We already knw that eating t much salt can lead t heart disease. But culd it als affect ur mind? Scientists fund that a highsalt diet culd cause cgnitive impairments (认知损伤) in mice, and it culd prduce the same effect n humans.
Dr Cstantin Iadecla, directr f the Feil Family Brain and Mind Research Institute, said they fed the mice eight t sixteen times their nrmal salt intake and then tested the mice. After abut three mnths, the mice had a big change in their behaviur. Mice are very curius, and they like t lk fr new things. Hwever, the tested mice lst the ability t identify a nrmal bject. When the mice were put in their cage and asked t find a quiet spt, they did nt remember where the quiet spt was. Then when the mice were building a nest, which is smething the mice d daily, they were unable t d s. The research suggested humans wuld experience a similar respnse.
Studies have shwn Australians eat arund duble the recmmended amunt f salt each day, mst f it cming frm prcessed fd. Dr Iadecla said the estimated tw teaspns f salt the average Australian eats each day culd affect the brain functin in the lng term. Hwever, the decline might nt be as bvius as in the mice, wh were given extremely high levels f salt. “But prbably ver years and perhaps decades—as ppsed t a few mnths fr the mice—even lwer levels f salt may have a terrible effect,” Dr Iadecla said.
“High levels f salt cause serius immune (免疫的) changes in the rgans in and arund the stmach, resulting in an almst autimmune effect n the brain. It is part f a grwing bdy f evidence that we really are what we eat,” Bryce Vissel, directr f the Centre fr Neurscience at the University f Technlgy Sydney, said. “Thse changes in turn cause all srts f respnses in the bdy, which ver time certainly cntribute t cgnitive impairments.”
