The dilemma of who lives longer, single or married, has come to an end. According to a recent study conducted by Experts at the National Cancer Center of Japan, it was found that married people are 15% more likely to live longer.

This is because marriage has a protective effect. Which means couples encourage each other to seek medical attention and treatment. Also married people are less likely than single people to have quarrels because married and drug use of married people compared to single people is at a lower level.

Experts also say that better financial conditions and healthier lifestyles that contribute to longevity come with marriage.

According to the study married people are diagnosed with malignant skin cancer earlier than singles. Because couples who look each other in the eye all the time can realize that something is wrong. Therefore, in such a situation the spouses encourage each other to go to the doctor for a visit.

Another interesting detail of the study is that married people are more likely to live longer even if they have diseases such as cancer, diabetes and high blood pressure.

Another reason is regular sex life, sensual contact and activities together prolong life and lead to a less stressful life./ CNA.al
