Kodi mukufuna kukhala ndi moyo wautali? Pezani galu!

Eni agalu amakonda kukhala ndi moyo wautali pang'ono kuposa anthu omwe ali ndi ziweto zina kapena opanda, ndipo palibe tanthauzo lenileni la izi. Zomwe zapezedwazi ndi za asayansi aku Sweden omwe adafalitsa nkhani m'magazini ya Scientific Reports.

Mukafunsa eni ake agalu, anthu ambiri anganene kuti ziweto zawo zimakhudza moyo ndi malingaliro abwino kwambiri. Mabwenzi amiyendo inayi nthawi zambiri amaperekedwa kwa anthu osakwatira komanso opuma pantchito kuti apirire kulakalaka. Mabanja amene ali ndi ana amasangalalanso kukhala ndi galu wokhulupirika, ndipo ana aang’ono amaphunzira kukhala osamala ndi odalirika. Koma kodi agalu amatha kupirira ntchito yaikulu yoteroyo monga kutalikitsa moyo? Asayansi ochokera ku yunivesite ya Uppsala - yakale kwambiri ku Scandinavia - ayang'ana ngati zili choncho.

Ofufuzawo adalemba gulu lolamulira la 3,4 miliyoni aku Sweden azaka 40-85 omwe anali ndi vuto la mtima kapena sitiroko mu 2001 kapena kenako. Anthu omwe adachita nawo kafukufukuyu adaphatikizapo eni ake agalu komanso omwe si eni ake. Monga momwe zinakhalira, gulu loyamba linali ndi zizindikiro zabwino kwambiri za thanzi.

Kukhalapo kwa galu m’nyumbamo kunachepetsa mwayi wa kufa msanga ndi 33% ndikuchepetsa mwayi wokhala ndi matenda a mtima ndi mitsempha ndi 11%. “Chochititsa chidwi n’chakuti, agalu akhala aphindu makamaka pa moyo wa anthu osakwatiwa, omwe, monga tadziwira kale, amakhala okhoza kufa kusiyana ndi omwe ali ndi mabanja,” adatero Mwenya Mubanga wochokera ku yunivesite ya Uppsala. Kwa anthu aku Sweden omwe amakhala ndi okwatirana kapena ana, kulumikizanaku sikunatchulidwebe, koma kumawonekerabe: 15% ndi 12%, motsatana.

Zotsatira zabwino za abwenzi a miyendo inayi sizochepa chifukwa chakuti anthu amayenera kuyenda ziweto zawo, zomwe zimapangitsa moyo wawo kukhala wotanganidwa. Mphamvu ya "kukulitsa moyo" imadalira mtundu wa galu. Choncho, eni ake amitundu yosaka ankakhala nthawi yaitali kuposa eni ake agalu okongoletsera.

Kuphatikiza pa gawo la thupi, malingaliro omwe anthu amakumana nawo ndi ofunika. Agalu amatha kuchepetsa nkhawa, kuthandiza kuthana ndi kusungulumwa, komanso kuchitira chifundo. "Tinatha kutsimikizira kuti eni ake agalu amakhala ndi nkhawa zochepa komanso amacheza kwambiri ndi anthu ena," atero a Tove Fall, m'modzi mwa omwe adalemba kafukufukuyu. Asayansi samapatulanso kuti anthu amakhala nthawi yayitali chifukwa cholumikizana ndi nyama pamlingo wa microflora - izi zikuyenera kuwoneka.
