Subject: Social relationships.
Having good social relationships- friends, marriage or children – may be every bit as important to a healthy lifespan as quitting smoking, losing weight or taking certain medications.
People with strong social relationships were 50% less likely to die early than people without such support.
A lack of social relationships was equivalent to smoking up to 15 cigarettes a day.
Having low levels of social interaction was equivalent to being an alcoholic, was more harmful than not exercising and was twice as harmful as obesity.
Best Wishes!
