Study: Higher Risk Of dementia With Cynicism Linked

Dear Reader,

Negative thinking is really not very good for your health, not to mention your mental outlook or peace of mind, but it can be surprisingly easy to slip into and hard to shake. New research in the journal Neurology finds that cynical people have a greater chance of developing dementia. Cynicism is a deep mistrust of other people, and psychologists think of this as a kind of chronic anger that comes on over time. The type of cynicism examined as part of the study involved subjects doubting the truth of what people said, believing most of us are motivated by self interest rather than other, more positive drives.

Earlier work in this area has found that those who are cynical are more likely to die sooner and have poorer health than others, but no studies have specifically focused on dementia risk. There has been research that discovered those who are more open and upbeat have a lower risk of dementia, so the opposite is an area worthy of investigation.

The project involved 1,449 subjects of an average age of 71, who took a test for dementia and another to measure how cynical they were. Both were consider3ed reliable measures by experts. Those who agreed with cynical statements on the exam were considered to be highly cynical. Those with the highest level of cynical distrust had a 2.54 times higher risk of having dementia than those with the lower cynicism ratings. The team also examined the results to see if the participants who were highly cynical died earlier than others, but once compounding factors were removed they didn't, even though earlier work has shown a link between cynicism and earlier death.

This research doesn't prove that having a negative, cynical attitude toward life brings on bad outcomes to your health. This research wasn't designed to do that. More work is needed to reproduce the conclusions found here, though the results do compliment a wide body of study that shows how over time, those with high levels of cynical hostility do worse in terms of health. They certainly are not happy people.

The link between an attitude and health outcome is very complex, though doctors will say that poor attitudes can lead patients down a road to poorer health. Author Dr. Hilary Tindle, a professor of medicine at the University of Pittsburgh was also the lead author on research that looked at the health outcomes of just over 97,000 women and saw that the cynical ones had a higher risk of cancer related death.

Study: Higher Risk Of dementia With Cynicism Linked Continued...

Cynical people have also been shown to smoke more, workout less and be heavier overall. They have a harder time following medical advice because their cynical thought process refuses to let them believe what anyone tells them. Cynical souls also have greater stress responses, and this suggests a higher heart rate, higher blood pressure peak and a tendency to more inflammation in the immune system. Chronic inflammation is what experts tell us is harmful to your overall health and has been linked to conditions like Crohn's disease, high cholesterol and even Alzheimer's.

Previous studies have also shown t hat those who are cynical also have a higher risk of heart disease, cardiovascular issues and death related to cancer. Cardiovascular disease is a condition that can contribute to dementia by damaging the small blood vessels all over the body, and that includes your brain.

It's always possible to change your cynical attitude... you are not doomed to stay this way, be plagued by damaging, negative thoughts. You can change, just like people do when they stop smoking, go on a diet, cut back drinking or cut out unhealthy relationships. People make changes for the better every day, you can too.

To your good health,
