At the recent annual meeting of the American Psychosomatic Association in California, a new study showed that widowed and divorced men not only lose their spouses, they may also lose a series of things that can prevent disease and early death. Healthy lifestyle habits. They eat less vegetables, drink more alcohol, find it difficult to quit smoking, and are prone to Alzheimer's disease, suicide, and even early death.
The study surveyed nearly 30,000 men and found that widowed men ate three fewer servings of vegetables per week and drank more alcohol, an average of more than 21 times per week. Divorced men, on the other hand, consumed two servings less vegetables per week than before and were more likely to smoke. If you remarry, you are more likely to quit smoking.
It is unclear why widowed and newly single men are less concerned about their health than men who live a normal life. Dr. Cavazzi of the Harvard School of Public Health speculated that women have a positive impact on men's health. Women generally have regular access to doctors, and even though most women have jobs with regular incomes, they also do more cooking at home. In fact, newly single men eat more oily foods outside. Dr. Cavazi suggested that doctors should understand the marital status of male patients. Especially when their living habits begin to change, doctors should ask them about changes in their marriage.
Previous research has shown that divorce or separation can double the risk of suicide in men, but has little effect on women; support from a spouse can lower blood pressure in men. These findings support the idea that marriage is good for men's physical and mental health.
