This is true at any age, for women as well as
for men, and regardless of other heart disease risk factors they had,
such as high cholesterol or diabetes, researchers found. Surprising right?
Love can sometimes break a heart but
marriage seems to do it a lot of good. This study of more than 3.5 million
Americans finds that married people are less likely than singles,
divorced or widowed folks to suffer any type of heart or blood vessel
problem.
"It might be that if someone is married, they
have a spouse who encourages them to take better care of themselves,"
said Dr. Jeffrey Berger, a preventive cardiologist at NYU Langone
Medical Center in New York.
This is the largest look at marriage and heart
health, said Dr. Carlos Alviar, a cardiology fellow who led the study
with Berger. Previous studies mostly compared married to single people
and lacked information on divorced and widowed ones. Or they just looked
at heart attacks, whereas this one included a full range from clogged
arteries and abdominal aneurysms to stroke risks and circulation
problems in the legs.
Researchers used health questionnaires that
people filled out when they sought various types of tests in community
settings around the country from an Ohio company, Life Line Screening
Inc. Some of these screening tests, for various types of cancer and
other diseases or conditions, are not recommended by leading medical
groups, but people can still get them and pay for them themselves.
The study authors have no financial ties to the
company and are not endorsing this type of screening, Berger said. Life
Line gave its data to the Society of Vascular Surgery and New York
University to help promote research.
The results are from people who sought
screening from 2003 through 2008. Their average age was 64, nearly
two-thirds were female and 80 percent were white. They gave information
on smoking, diabetes, family history, obesity, exercise and other
factors, and researchers had blood pressure and other health measures.
What the study found:
—Married people had a 5 percent lower risk of
any cardiovascular disease compared to single people.
—Widowed people had
a 3 percent greater risk of it and divorced people, a 5 percent greater risk, compared to married folks.
—Marriage seemed to do the most good for those
under age 50; they had a 12 percent lower risk of heart-related disease
than single people their age.
