Women’s Breasts, wedding and kids: 5 things that prolong the lives of men
Experts remind that the length of our life depends on the habits, sometimes very unexpected. Here are five ways to live longer, which will surprise men.
In an attempt to find the “fountain of youth” both women and men spend a lot of time and money on buying miracle creams, following detox diets and special exercise classes. However, experts remind that to a large extent the length of our life depends on the habits, sometimes very unexpected. Below is five ways to live longer, which will surprise men.
Female breast
A recent study reports that men who regularly look at women’s Breasts tend to live longer. The Men’s Health experts attribute this to the fact that look at something nice, be it the beautiful female body or cute kittens, automatically improves our mood.
In the experiment conducted by the Archives of Internal Medicine, found that those volunteers who for years have practiced positive thinking (they were asked to think of pleasant things as often as possible), were more healthy than participants in the “negative group”. In particular, 55% of participants with coronary heart disease and 42% of participants with high blood pressure have been significant improvements in health.
Sex
If a man needs an excuse to more sex with his partner then here it is. A study conducted by the BMJ, suggests that sex has a positive effect on the health of men. So, the risk of mortality provided that regular sexual activity is reduced by 50%, and the average life expectancy increasing from 3 to 8 years. Experts believe this is because sex helps us cope with stressful overloads, thus reducing the likelihood of diseases.
Marriage
Studies show that married men on average live longer than unmarried. In the course of a scientific experiment, which was attended by over 127 000 American adults, found that men who marry after 25 years old, have a high level of protection from chronic diseases than those who make it to 25 years. In addition, the longer a man is married, the higher his benefits in terms of life expectancy and overall health.
Parenthood
No worse than a happy marriage lengthens men’s lives and the birth of a child. This is according to a study published in the Journal of Epidemiology & Community Health. Scientists have discovered that men and women who have at least one child have a lower risk of mortality than their childless colleagues. When parents reach 60 years of age, the difference in life expectancy is 2 years, 80 years — from 7 to 8 years. All this is, quite possibly, is connected with an increasing sense of responsibility, experts say Journal of Personality and Social Psychology.
Tummy
No, not a beer belly, and the one that appears in men well-fed and contented life. Richard Bribiescas (Richard G. Bribiescas), the author of the book How Men Age, estimates that men who are overweight are less likely to suffer from heart attacks and prostate cancer, and more likely to spend time with children and not look for other women. Moreover, it is proved that a slight increase in the amount of body fat makes men more attractive to women. And, according to some, such men are still better at sex than their lean rivals.
