Jakarta, CNN Indonesia

Single lifestyle was not good for health. Recent studies show Men years of living alone can increase inflammation and are more at risk for a number of disease.

The study, published in the journal BMJ, analyzed 4,835 blood samples from men and women. Researchers then checked the level of inflammation in each person. Researchers also looked at relationships that were lived as if they had broken up or were divorced or living alone.

As a result, men who had been divorced or lived alone for many years had the highest levels of inflammation. However, in women, this effect was not found.

Cardiovascular expert Peter Libby explains that living alone is closely related to loneliness. This condition is associated with an increase in stress hormones that trigger inflammation in the nervous system. “We have found a significant relationship between a breakup or years of living alone with inflammation in men. In women, we did not find such an effect,” said researcher Karolina Davidson. , quoted from CNN.

Inflammation is the beginning of the emergence of chronic disease. Inflammation in cells or organs that are left untreated can damage organs and develop into disease. Inflammation is a major factor in heart disease and cancer. This condition also increases the risk of premature death.

Libby suggests that men promote a healthy lifestyle and socialize a lot to reduce the loneliness and stress that comes with living alone. Everyone is advised to eat nutritious food, exercise regularly, get enough rest, and manage stress.
