Bingo Fights the Negative Effects of Aging
Friday 25th June, 2010
The Archives of Internal Medical Journal has published an interesting new study, which states that playing bingo contributes to the social engagement that is crucial preventing disabilities. The findings reveal that by staying active, bingo players can reduce the risk of developing a disability by 65%.
It’s true that bingo is not at all physically demanding. However, studies have shown that playing bingo helps to keep your mind active and alert. It is also helpful in ensuring that your hand-eye coordination stays sharp. Bingo is, indeed, a very simple game to learn and play but it requires a great deal of concentration.
Our motor functions even experience a boost while playing. As we age, our motor skills will inevitably experience a decline, but doctors advise us to regularly chat with friends and acquaintances in order to prevent this from happening. Because bingo is such a social activity, it certainly helps the development of our motor functions later in life. Even if players decide to stay in and play online bingo, they are obtaining essentially the same social and mental experience. All forms of bingo do, indeed, contribute to the promotion of its players’ good health.
Dr. Aron S. Buchman, the leader of the journal’s study, has noted that this data helps to raise the possibility that social interaction can slot the decline of motor functions in older players. He also states that this can also help to delay other health problems that may arise from such a decline.
