Can a failed marriage kill a man

The study showed that unhappy family relationships are not good for health in terms of danger, they do not differ from smoking. These are the conclusions of observations of more than 10,000 residents of Israel for 30 years.

If you consider your marriage to be unsuccessful, then this may be the reason that will lead to an early grave. Israeli researchers came to this conclusion. They carefully studied the medical histories of more than 10,000 residents of the country for 30 years. The study was conducted by the staff of Tel Aviv University.

It turned out that an unhappy marriage was the same risk factor for the cardiovascular system as smoking, often leading to strokes and heart attacks. For example, men who considered their marriage to be unsuccessful were 69.2% more likely to die of strokes, compared to those who considered their marriage to be happy.

After analyzing all the causes of premature death among men, scientists came to the conclusion that early mortality was 19% higher if the marriage was unsuccessful. In this regard, the authors of the study urge psychotherapists to pay special attention to their patients' satisfaction with family life. Family therapy can play the most important role in protecting cardiovascular health. Note that the study was conducted among men, and nothing is known about the impact of an unsuccessful marriage on women's health.
