Being loyal to your partner can add 6 years to your life

　　The latest report published in the Journal of Psychosomatic Medicine by researchers at Yale University in the United States points out that among couples over 65 years old, when the wife clearly states that her husband is her "indispensable partner" and her "support for survival," the husband may become more "powerful" than men of the same age. In order to understand the physiological and psychological impact of marital status on the human body, researchers from the university tracked and investigated 305 pairs of elderly couples aged 65 and over.

This trend even makes many unmarried young people doubt their partner's loyalty. In this regard, researchers particularly emphasized that in modern times that focus on material comfort, it is difficult for men and women to impose the love concept of silver-haired people on themselves. Therefore, it is difficult for them to enjoy the healthy effects of trust and mutual dependence between husband and wife. This is probably a small price to pay when modern people place too much emphasis on themselves and do not believe in love.
