British scientists have found that marriage is not always good for people's health. Happy family ties really improve health, but a bad marriage can hurt.

There have been two studies. About 11,000 volunteers took part in the first of them.. The survey proved that an unhappy marriage, divorce or death of the second half can worsen health. Cardiovascular disease and even mental disorders - that's what you can get sick in an unsuccessful marriage. Singles in this case have an advantage over divorced or widowed: they have a chance to live longer.

Previously, Aston Medical School conducted another study. After surveying more than 900,000 people, experts concluded that a happy family life reduces the risk of diseases such as high blood cholesterol, hypo- and hypertension, and diabetes mellitus.. Loving spouses take care of each other and can track diseases in time.

Also, thanks to marriage, according to experts, the level of the hormone cortisone, which is “responsible” for stress reactions, decreases..
