目前,微量元素(Trace element)已被各界认识、研究,并应用于各个方面。尤其近十年来关于微量元素对人的生命,特别对防衰、防老、延长寿命等方面,国外报导较多,但是以微量元素做为健康长寿的隐蔽因素加以探讨的文献报告尚少。我们对31例长寿老人(其中在一年内先后死亡3例)的头发做了微量元素含量测定分析,并对生存与死亡老人头发微量元素含量均值关系略加探讨。 At present, trace elements have been recognized, studied and applied in all aspects. Especially in the last ten years, there are many reports about trace elements on human life, especially anti-aging, anti-aging and prolonging life expectancy, but there are still few reports about trace elements as the covert factors of health and longevity. We measured the trace elements in 31 cases of longevity elderly (including 3 cases of death in one year), and discussed the relationship between the average content of trace elements in the hair of surviving and elderly people.
