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! Sunder Thadani
