It's incredible how dogs can help people with health problems invisible to the human eye. (If you sawNETFLIX comforting documentary,Dogs, you know there are very good boys who are trained to help little girls with epilepsy doing amazing things, such as bindings to alert his family when they experience an unexpected seizure.) But now, A new published studyin the newspaperScientific reports said that not only can dogs can spot a crisis recognizing what it looks like when it happens, they can alsofeel He starts even before.

In 1998,Roger Reep, Ph.D., Associate Professor at the Department of Physical Sciences of the University of Florida, interviewed 77 people aged 30 to 60 elderly epilepsy, and found that about 10% said that their dogs appeared to know When a seizure was about to unfold. But the proof was purely anecdotal - so far.

Amelie Catala, a doctorate candidate at the University of Rennes in France, decided to determine whether a personal odor of a person changes when they are about to have a crisis and, if so, that dogs may or may not Detect this smell and be formed to recognize what it means.

Five sterilized dogs formed to detect body smells of patients with diseases or disorders of different injuries have received samples of breath and sweat of epilepatic patients when they passed through a crisis, in the calm state, or engaged in sports. The results showed that convulsions are in fact associated with a particular body odor that dogs were able to detect with impressive accuracy. Two of the dogs were able to detect the seizure odor with an accuracy of 67% and three of them were really correct at 100% of the time.

"The results went beyond our expectations by showing that there is indeed a general odor of epileptic seizure", CatalaAFP said. "We hope it will open new lines of research that can anticipate convulsions and thus get patients looking for security."

A spokesman for charityEpilepsy action Said that, although additional research is needed, this study offers what is perhaps the first real scientific evidence that dogs can be trained to predict convulsions.

"We still do not know if they do it by the smell or another meaning",RecountThe Guardian. "This research is therefore interesting and could be a next step in understanding how dogs can support people living with uncontrolled epilepsy."

If the idea that dogs that dogs can "smell", convulsions sound a bit far from you, it should be noted that scientists have already confirmed that dogs can detect other diseases, such as lung cancer and Breast, purely by their perfume while the disease is always in its infancy.

They can also detect when the blood levels in the blood of someone who suffer from diabetes are dangerously low. Dogs have up to 300 million olfactory receptors in their snoots, against six million human nose. According toJames WalkerFormer Director of the Sensory Research Institute of Florida State University, this means that dogs are "10,000 times better" to feel that we.

"If you make the analogy to the vision, what you and I can see a third of mile, a dog could see more than 3,000 miles and always see also,"He told PBS.

So, yes, they are really amazing. And for more evidence that they can help us emotionally as much as they can physically, consult the15 life lessons that you can learn from your dog.
