University of Otago: Dunedin Study Data Provides Evidence That Youth Mental Health Issues Impact Adult Physical Health

University of Otago: Dunedin Study Data Provides Evidence That Youth Mental Health Issues Impact Adult Physical Health Targeted News Service (Press Releases) DUNEDIN, A new study by researchers from Otago and Duke Universities makes the case that mental health struggles in early life can lead to poorer physical health and advanced aging in adulthood. They conclude interventions in early life could prevent illness and social costs. Because mental health problems peak early in life and can be identified, the researchers say more investment in prompt mental health care could be used to prevent later diseases and lower societal healthcare costs.

Mentally ill kids become less healthy adults

E-Mail DURHAM, N.C. A new pair of studies from a Duke research team s long-term work in New Zealand make the case that mental health struggles in early life can lead to poorer physical health and advanced aging in adulthood. But because mental health problems peak early in life and can be identified, the researchers say that more investment in prompt mental health care could be used to prevent later diseases and lower societal healthcare costs. The same people who experience psychiatric conditions when they are young go on to experience excess age-related physical diseases and neurodegenerative diseases when they are older adults, explained Terrie Moffitt, the Nannerl O. Keohane professor of psychology and neuroscience at Duke, who is the senior author on both studies.

Self-controlled children tend to be healthier middle-aged adults, suggests study

ANI | Updated: Jan 06, 2021 15:49 IST Washington [US], January 6 (ANI): The findings of a study suggest that self-control, the ability to contain one s own thoughts, feelings and behaviours, and to work toward goals with a plan, is one of the personality traits that makes a child ready for school. And, it turns out, ready for life as well. In a large study that has tracked a thousand people from birth through age 45 in New Zealand, researchers have determined that people who had higher levels of self-control as children were ageing more slowly than their peers at age 45. Their bodies and brains were healthier and biologically younger.
