Study: Men who are women's hands live longer

We've all heard the expression <x0 women happy, happy life” but a new study found “the controlling wife, the healthier life” as real.

Previous studies have shown that marriage mates can affect each other's health and life expectancy.

However, this study illuminates the reason for women to be valued:

It turns out that when men are happily married, they have a lower risk of developing diabetes. But even if they develop it, they have a higher chance of successful treatment, thanks to their wives.

Hui Liu, the lead researcher, said it may be because some women constantly monitor the health of their husbands, especially if men are in poor health or have diseases such as frequent monitoring.

The research, which has examined the results of the survey by 1,228 married persons aged 57 to 85, challenges the assumption that an unhappy marriage is equal to poor health and thus a shorter life.

The same study suggested that the opposite is true of women. A good marriage meant a lower risk of being diabetic five years later.

Women may be more sensitive than men to the quality of a relationship and are thus more likely to experience a rise in health from a good quality relationship, researchers said.

Overcontrol is noted to create tremendous stress for marriage mates. Many studies have shown that unhappy marriages can be bad for the body, the heart, and the mind.
