A Healthy Man Ties The Knot

A new study found that women hardly benefit (health wise) from getting married while men who tie the knot are healthier than their single counterparts.

The research found that unmarried men suffered more negative health effects than single women.

But middle-aged women who had never wed had almost the same chance of developing a combination of diabetes, high blood pressure and obesity, known as metabolic syndrome, as their married counterparts.

The study which analysed information on more than 10,000 people born in England, Scotland and Wales in the same week of spring 1958, found that single men showed higher levels of a biomarker signifying a greater risk of breathing problems, than unmarried women.
