people come to the world in different months, and it seems that “fate” is also different. Many studies have found that the month of birth may affect a person’s life span. A survey of 70000 centenarians shows that in addition to a healthy lifestyle, correct health preservation methods and personal personality characteristics, the month of birth has also become a major factor affecting the length of life. This study shows that people born in autumn may live longer, mainly due to the different environments people are in early in life. Does the month of birth really affect life expectancy? Invite experts to solve the mystery between birthday and health.
gastrointestinal difference of spring born
the study found that people born in spring are more likely to suffer from gastrointestinal diseases and learning disabilities. According to the 2011 census data, the average IQ of people born in April is low, and the proportion of people born in this month who are not healthy is high. On the one hand, it is related to whether the mother receives sufficient sunshine during pregnancy; On the other hand, with the rising temperature, bacteria in food begin to multiply in large numbers. Babies born in spring should start to eat some food normally in summer. At this time, the fragile intestines and stomach are vulnerable to bacterial attack, which lays a hidden danger for digestive system diseases in the future.
people born in summer are happier
the season of birth may also affect a person’s personality. The researchers found that people born in summer tend to be happier than those born in winter. The researchers believe that this is because the fetus is affected by seasonal factors such as temperature, rainfall, ultraviolet light, maternal nutrition intake and maternal estrogen secretion. A vision survey of 270000 children in Israel found that children born in summer had the highest proportion of moderate and severe myopia. The researchers said that this may be related to the fact that the eyes of newborns born in summer are vulnerable to too much light stimulation.
people born in autumn live longer
the study found that people born in autumn live longer than those born in spring. This is because people’s exposure to the environment in the early stage of life will affect their life span. For example, for infants born in spring, their mothers do not fully absorb nutrition during winter pregnancy and are less exposed to sunlight. Therefore, the synthetic vitamin D of human body is also relatively reduced, and these factors will affect the health of infants. A survey released by the research center also shows that people born in autumn live longer and are less likely to get sick when they get old. In addition, a British study also found that children born in September usually have better academic performance than their peers born in other months.
people born in winter are prone to insomnia
a “study on the distribution of birth months of patients with chronic insomnia” conducted by the sleep center shows that more than 40% of the patients with chronic insomnia treated in the hospital were born in winter, while the least were born in summer, accounting for only 16%. The researchers believe that this is mainly related to the cold climate in winter and the large difference in the length of day and night. Danish researchers also found that people born in winter are more likely to suffer from mental illness. According to statistical analysis, the proportion of people born in winter suffering from schizophrenia and depression is 8% higher than those born in other months.
expert interpretation:
birth month affects life, which cannot be “absolute”. In the view of the professor, although the statement that “birth month can affect life span” sounds absurd, there is a certain truth in the research at home and abroad. Because the season will indeed change the external environment of fetal pregnancy, such as the length of sunshine and temperature, and will also affect the nutritional intake and hormone secretion of pregnant women, which will affect the development of the fetus in the uterus through the mother.
but it should be clear that the health of the fetus after birth is affected by a variety of factors. Gao Fangkun believes that there are two important factors that determine the length of life: one is genetic factor; The other is environmental factors, including the intrauterine environment of the fetus in the mother, the natural environment such as water, sunshine and air, and the social environment such as culture, education, family, region and health. Therefore, the factors affecting people’s longevity are very complex. We must not emphasize the role of birth season alone.
emphasizes that giving birth to life is a natural choice and can not be operated artificially, let alone deliberately arrange the delivery time according to the research results“ The statement of “birth season affects life expectancy” should be avoided from being absolute, because these studies are cases, not laws. In fact, there are great differences among individuals. For example, some pregnant women have strong nutritional intake ability, and some pregnant women still exercise and bask in the sun in winter, so seasonality has little impact on them. We can’t unilaterally say that those born in which season must be good and those in which season must be bad.
