combatmedic: Getting Married and Getting Heart Disease: A National Study

A report of an 8-year study of heart disease, based on a nationally representative sample of more than 9,000 people in late mid-life. When the study first started in 1992, the participants ranged in age from 51 to 60.

The participants were contacted five times from 1992 and 2000. Their marital status, cardiovascular health status, and health behaviors were assessed. Other information (for example, socioeconomic status) was also recorded.

There are five different marital statuses:
• Continuously married (i.e., first and only marriage)
• Remarried
• Widowed
• Divorced
• Always single

Let's look first at the prevalence of heart disease at the start of the study. (Heart disease = doctor diagnosis of heart attack, coronary heart disease, angina, congestive heart failure, or other heart problems, or stroke.) In the table below is the percentage of people (averaged across all ages) who had heart disease at the start of the study. Lower numbers indicate less prevalence of heart disease, so the group ranked #1 is the healthiest. The rank-ordering of heart disease for the 5 marital statuses was the same for the men as for the women. See if you can guess which marital status goes with each rank.

WOMEN MEN
1. 8.4 13.0
2. 8.7 13.5
3. 10.7 16.4
4. 10.8 16.5
5. 11.6 17.7

Okay, here are the answers:

1. Always single
2. Continuously married
3. Remarried
4. Widowed
5. Divorced

So there you have it. The lowest rate of heart disease is found among the women and men, ages 51-60, who had been single all their lives. The rates for the continuously married are higher, though not statistically so.

The study went on for years, and the authors calculated the probability of experiencing heart disease for each age, from 51 through 65. (See Table 5 in the article.) Of course, the probabilities increase with age for men and women of all marital statuses. Let's see where they end up at age 65. Here are the results for the MEN.

1. 29, always-single men
2. 33, widowed men
3. 42, remarried men
4. 46, continuously married men
5. 50, divorced men

Look at what has happened to the continuously married men. At 46%, the likelihood of having heart disease is greater for them than for any other group of men except the divorced. The always-single men are doing way better, at just 29%.

(For women at age 65, the probabilities were 32 for continuously married, 38 for always-single, 43 for widowed, 45 for remarried, and 47 for divorced. So even though men typically have higher rates of heart disease than women, the always-single men have the lowest rates of all 10 of the groups.)

The authors also looked at how the risk of heart disease changed for each successive year of marriage. Here, in their words, is what they found: "Each year in marriage increased rather than decreased the risk of cardiovascular disease by 2% for both men and women." The risk increased each year both in first marriages and in remarriages.

Because the authors collected data on health measures such as smoking and obesity, and on conditions described as morbid (really, that's the technical term), they could venture a data-based explanation as to why each year of marriage added to the risk of heart disease: "Longer marriages were associated with less healthy behaviors and an accumulation of morbid conditions, such as hypertension, diabetes, and high cholesterol."

Basically, what this research proves is that the so-called 'peace of mind' that people say we get from being married seems to be at best elusive or at worst a mirage.

Abbycite: This story only confirm one thing ...that MKO and Abacha was murdered by foreign agents.

I was in d secondary school when d duo met their mysterious end but even with my primitive mind then, I knew it was not a mere coincidence that two powerful (healthy) personalities that can change d destiny of a third world country could just died within d spate of 30 days...

Bottomline is....there are bigger cabals in the international realm that can kill a sitting president even with their heavy security shield just to keep their account balanced.

FXKing2012: What is the lawyer's business in all this? Why carry it on his head as if he was the one slapped by the bishop? Cant u see he's being used by the devil to distract worshipers? Tens of thousands of children get slapped everyday in Nigeria, why not go suing others? Why is it only Bishop Oyedepo that deserves to be sued?

DailyNews: Men are adventurous in nature, but the modern culture and norms ignored this. Looking at the past, men married more than one wives cos it is natural for a man to desire to own more than one woman, but then, modern civilization and religion has made it more civil for a man to marry one wife, and hence, he tries to obey the law of nature by cheating with other females while having one as the legally recognized person. So to say, women are born with lower libido than men, and tend to be more satisfied with one caring partner than with multiple partners. Note that a woman only cheats when she is with the wrong man who doesn't care much about her and meet all her emotional, financial, and mental needs. but a man irrespective of how much his wife or girlfriend cares about him or irrespective of the fact that he is with his dream girl, will still have the tendency to cheat except he has an extreme self-control and conscious of his personality, image, etc...or for other reasons including financial and spiritual.....

ronnyfam: U must be on an expired drugs

Cuddlemii: @Crown prince, first of all hope its no contagious over the internet because I cherish my life, lols

To the topic at hand, this is not even an issue. What kind of relationship were you both running that would warrant such careless mistakes on ur parts. Its not funny to joke around with ailments with no cure. It means you both had intercourse without condoms and you never bothered to be responsible by doing regular check-ups for any ish. If both of you knew your status out of frequent check-ups then there would be no issue of distrust or accusing fingers. I hate needles but value life a lot so I want to know Im negative even if I am not sexually active, its just an health thing you have to cultivate for long life. Health is wealth you know.

But your babe is not composed, to flare up is one thing but to do it on the road and embarras you makes her look like a tout. You seem like a very cool headed guy to even be so bothered to take her for another check up and even ask for advice on here, other guys would have left. No man wants a nagging babe who lacks public etiquette. I suggest you warn her to desist from such degrading attributes or else you would be forced to take a walk. Put her on probation abeg, her likes would pour hot water on you when she discovers she has added a pound of weight, she would say its your spe-rm that caused it. Her IQ seems on the average, every babe knows the meaning of Candidiasis ( also known as toilet diseases or yeast infection in Nigeria, a simple Canestine ointment & insertion capsules would have made her new again so whats the big deal). HIV is a far cry from what she was diagnosed with so why did she act like that. Well I wont want to dwell too much on your future wife but please put her in order, we don't want her scolding you because her kid burnt his finger with hot tea that she served and you were in your office when it happened. You get my drift?

I have never seen such a thing in my life sha, which person go dey play with HIV, sure she is not possessed to have acted like that. Na wa oh, hmmm.

ebamma: na today,first dem been tell us say before 2010,when e don reach 2020,dem go change mouth say na by 2040 u go dey get steady light.

uzoo: 1. Have a clear goal. It should be one that anyone in the world can measure and understand.

2. Drink tea. Research suggests that those who drink tea -- black, green, or white, as long as it’s from real tea versus herbal tea -- have lower BMIs and less body fat than those who don’t consume tea.

3. Eat cayenne pepper. A study published in the British Journal of Nutrition showed that when compared to placebo, capsaicin -- the active ingredient in cayenne -- increased fat burning.

4. Decrease/eliminate processed carbs. They do nothing for you outside of creating a favorable environment for gaining fat.

5. Eat more veggies. They fill you up, without providing many calories. Just avoid the high-calorie dressings.

6. Eat more fruit. No one ever gained weight from eating more fruit. And that includes the so-called "high sugar" fruits like bananas and melons.

7. Lift weights. Heavy weights. Build more muscle, burn more calories.

8. Cut down rest time between sets. This will keep your heart rate elevated causing an increase in calories burned. The good news: You can sky-rocket your heart rate and torch belly-fat fast with The Spartacus Workout for Men and The Spartacus Workout for Women -- the most popular fat-blasting workouts in Men's Health and Women's Health history.

9. Do intervals. Study after study after study continues to show intervals are more effective and time efficient than longer activity performed at a lower intensity.

10. Eat more protein. Replacing refined carbohydrates with lean protein will not only help satiate you, but will also increase your metabolism -- through something called the thermic effect of food.


11. Eat protein more frequently. It's important to also time your intake so you're eating protein regularly throughout the day -- not just in one lump sum, like most do at dinner. Every meal and snack should include some protein.

12. Supplement with fish oil. A study published in Lipids fed mice diets enhanced EPA and DHA -- a.k.a. fish oil. The researchers learned that the mice fed diets higher in omega-3 fats had significantly less accumulation of body fat. Other studies have shown similar results.

13. Do full body exercises. Think: Squats, deadlifts, chin-ups, and push-ups. You'll get more bang for your buck out of each workout. Want even better results? Discover the 100 Greatest Fitness Tips of All Time.

14. Cycle your carb intake based on your activity level. Sure, carbs are important. But on the days you don't work out, you simply don't need as many compared to the days you exercise hard. Rule of thumb: The more active you are, the more carbs you can eat, and vice versa.

15. Start your meals with a salad. Salad will provide some bulk to help fill you up -- so that you eat less calories overall.

16. Don't forget the fiber. Think of fiber like a sponge; it absorbs water and makes you feel full.

17. Drink water. Professor Dr. Brenda Davy and her Team from Virginia Tech University found that giving people 2 cups of water before each meal resulted in greater weight loss after 12 weeks. The reason? It helps fill you up.

18. Add beans to your salads. It's a nice way to add some additional fiber, protein and healthy carbs.

19. Replace one meal a day with a large salad and lean protein. This is a simple way to instantly improve your diet.

20. Keep a food journal. There's no better way to track what you're putting in your mouth.

21. Watch your portions. Avoid the buffet line and never supersize. Instead make sure you're following what the nutrition label recommends for a serving.

22. Switch to calorie-free drinks. All calories count, whether they're liquid or solid. So unless it's low-fat milk, opt for tea or water. Or something I was introduced to in the Netherlands -- large bunches of mint, lemon and hot water.

23. Weigh yourself. Studies show daily weigh-ins help enhance weight loss efforts. Don't live and die by the number. And of course a scale doesn’t decipher between fat and lean body mass, but it can still be of benefit to keep things "in check."

24. Eat whole eggs. Daily. A study published a couple years ago showed that those who ate whole eggs versus a bagel for breakfast ate less at the next meal. A similar study showed eating whole eggs increases HDL (good) cholesterol.

25. Eat breakfast. A review published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition showed that those who eat breakfast are more successful with long-term weight maintenance. Other research has shown the same for weight loss. Grab hardboiled eggs, scrambled eggs, Greek yogurt, a piece of fruit and handful of nuts, or make a smoothie. It doesn't have to be fancy.

26. Eat the bulk of your meals in the A.M. Then eat progressively less throughout the day. A study published in the Journal of Nutrition showed that eating most of your calories earlier in the day positively influences weight changes.

27. To burn more calories, stay upright. This means not sitting in front of a computer, TV, phone, etc., all day. Stand and you'll burn more and be more productive. This could even save your life. Discover Why Your Office Chair is Killing You.

28. Use the stairs. That's right: Skip the escalator and elevator. This won't make or break success, but every little bit helps. So get in all the movement you can.

29. Eat low-energy, dense foods. These are foods that are high in water and lower in calories, such as fruit, veggies, soups, and salads. Studies at Penn State University have showed that the inclusion of these foods helps individuals eat less total calories overall.

30. Don't grocery shop hungry. If you do, you'll buy everything in the aisle -- instead of sticking to your list. And most of the time, the foods you buy when hungry will be the kinds that sabotage your weight loss efforts.

31. Replace side dishes with steamed veggies. Restaurants will often allow you to substitute the fries or chips with steamed veggies. All you have to do is ask.

32. Bake, don't fry.

33. Use the fat-burner in your backyard: Your grill. (And make sure you have a copy of Grill This, Not That! -- the extraordinary guide to grilling that can help you lose 10, 20, 30 or more pounds.)

34. Order dressing on the side. But here's the bigger secret: Dip your fork in dressing, and then in the salad. This saves a ton more dressing than if one was to order it on the side, and the pour the entire cup on the salad anyway. Fewer calories equal less weight.

35. In the airport: Carry your luggage, don't roll it. Again, not a deal breaker in terms of success -- just another way to increase energy expenditure.

36. Skip the "Venti lattes" and opt for plain coffee. (Or better yet, tea.) Those extra large "designer" coffees can pack a belly-inflating 500 or more calories per serving!

37. Embrace oats. Plain rolled oats will help fill you up more than the high sugar breakfast counterparts. Moreover, one serving provides a lot less calories than the sugar coated alternatives.

38. Fidget. A study published in the journal Science showed that those who fidgeted more often -- for example, changed their posture frequently -- weighed less than those who didn't. This extra movement was termed NEAT (non-exercise activity thermogenesis).

39. Laugh often. A study presented at the European Congress on Obesity found those who laughed hard for approximately 10 to 15 minutes each day burned an additional 10 to 40 calories/day. Multiply that by 365 and those calories can add up!

40. Leave something on your plate at the end of the meal. Every little bit counts.

41. When out to eat, split a meal. The portions are usually big enough to feed a family.

42. Skip dessert.

43. Don't socialize around the food tables at parties. You're more
likely to munch mindlessly, even though you may not be hungry.

44. Don't eat your kid's leftovers. Every little bit of food adds up, including what we call "BLTs" (bites, licks and tastes).

45. Keep chips, dips, and other high fat junk foods out of the house. It's not about willpower; it's about being realistic.

46. If you have a dog, take him for a walk. It's better for both him and you than just letting him out the back. (Bonus: He'll love you even more!)

47. If you don't have a pet, offer to walk a neighbor's dog. Make friends; lose weight.

48. Use smaller plates and bowls. There will be less room for you to fill up and it makes less food seems like more.

49. Skip buffets. It's a foregone conclusion: If you don't, you'll feel like you have to get your money's worth and overeat. For more instant weight-loss secrets – delivered to your inbox every day -- sign up for the FREE Eat This, Not That! newsletter.

50. Slow down. It takes approximately 15 to 20 minutes for your stomach to sense it's full. If you wolf down your food like a starving dog, you'll likely out-eat your hunger.

51. Decrease your food intake by 100 calories per day. Theoretically this translates to losing nearly one pound per month (1 lb = 3,500 calories) -- with hardly any effort.

52. Buy a pedometer and accumulate at least 10,000 steps each day.

53. When possible, walk or bike to do your errands.

54. Don't buy in bulk. The more that is there, the more that you'll eat.

55. Plan ahead. If you fail to plan, you plan to fail.

56. Keep some healthy snacks -- like nuts -- in your glove compartment so you're prepared at all times.

57. Take before pictures.

58. Get new friends. If your friends prefer pizza, wings, nachos and beer on a regular basis, find one's who are like-minded and want to be healthy. Research has suggested that friends enhance (or can hurt) success.

59. Put yourself first. Many people (women in particular) put everyone else ahead of themselves and let their health fall by the side.

60. Remember: It's not all or nothing. If you fall off the bandwagon, jump right back on. Don't let yourself continue to fall until all progress has been lost.

61. Wake up early to exercise. You're more likely to get it done if you don’t wait until after work.

cindyrella: Na when soldier slap you, you go sabi say police na your friend!

mikecashes: The guy is really a hard working person

PointB: Will be keeping an eye on this one. Azazi anyway seems to talk more than he act. Hope the new guy knows his onion and have large balls to confront the rampaging monsters.

Jenwitemi: I concur.

Again, i concur with this.

With this, i definitely do not concur. There is no difference between MAN and the animal kingdom, as far as the SPIRIT goes. The same SPIRIT that resides in MAN resides in animals, no difference whatsoever.

The difference here, however, is the SOUL. The SOUL formed in MAN is quite different from the one formed in a DOG, for example, mainly because they are both programed differently by their different environments and the way they interact with them.

In addition, only the SOUL can be transferred between living things. The SPIRIT, on the other hand, cannot be moved about because the spirit is already everywhere at all times, all pervasive, so it needs not be artificially transferred anywhere to be everywhere.

So, in conclusion, the SOUL is the difference between living beings, man or animal, and not the SPIRIT.

I concur.

Absolutely in agreement.

Logic Mind: Buzugee is wrong as usual.
There is a huge difference.
Spirit is everywhere. There are good and evil spirits, there is a holy spirit, an amadioha spirit, etc. No soul equvalents. Ever heard of the Holy Soul?.
Spirits can exist on their own and interact with the living. It is your virtual self. Souls live inside people and record everything for judgement.

Put is this way: the soul is the internal hard drive god put in you to record all your actions. When you die, this data is transfered to the mobile external drive called spirit. It is the spirit that wanders the earth as ghosts. It is the spirit that will stand judgement based on its data. And it is the spirit that will enjoy heaven or endure hell.
The bible made clear that souls die. Spirits never die.
Ezekiel 18:20, "The soul that sinneth, it shall die."

Vikin: Before going to bed close all windows if you have aircondition in your house.
Thiefs/robbers move around with a very big cutter that welders use for work. If your windows are opened, they quitely cut it(protectors) and gain entrance, if not...they dont like noise/ attraction, its defficult for them to break the glass to gain entrance.

If not aircondition, keep only the window close to your bed opened. with machetti close to your bed in case you see any unwanted hand. If you no get mind use machete, keep a bottle fcold water to pour on them then scream acid!!, like that they think its acid, and run for their lifes!

Also, if you are alone at home and they try to gain entrance...scream FIRE!!!!FIRE!!!! Dont even think of calling police or screaming thieves oh!!! If you scream theives, your neighbours with double lock their door, but when you scream fire....every one takes off including your unwanted visitors.

Hope this helps, talking out of experience in Naija!
