Having frequent arguments with partners, friends or relatives can increase the risk of death in middle-age, say Danish researchers.

Writing in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health, they said men and those not in work were most vulnerable.

Dealing with worries and demands from close family was also linked to a higher mortality risk, the study said.

An individual's personality and ability to deal with stress is likely to play a role in the findings.

Although the research team, from the University of Copenhagen, calculated that constant arguing increased a man or woman's mortality risk by two or three times the normal rate, they could not fully explain the factors behind it.

Death is never premature.
It will come in its own time.

We do however often help to provide the means.

Never heard a complaint from the other side about bad timing.

Death will one day befriend us all.
 
Not enough sex can also also increase your risk of death.


So keep at it :biggrin2:

This is why make-up sex was invented. It's the antidote to arguing. :good:
 
I plan to email this one to my OS with my fake email address.






Think she'll give a damn?.








No, I am worth 1 million dead.
 
Holy Killer Argument Batman:biggrin2: It's obviously the constant high stress levels which causes the deaths, duh I even knew that and I'm not a researcher or doctor.

Look on the bright side Robin

You at least never had an argument with a female.

Cortisol is the stress hormone that causes most of the damage.

"The stress hormone, cortisol, is public health enemy number one. Scientists have known for years that elevated cortisol levels: interfere with learning and memory, lower immune function and bone density, increase weight gain, blood pressure, cholesterol, heart disease... The list goes on and on.

Chronic stress and elevated cortisol levels also increase risk for depression, mental illness, and lower life expectancy. This week, two separate studies were published in Science linking elevated cortisol levels as a potential trigger for mental illness and decreased resilience—especially in adolescence.

Cortisol is released in response to fear or stress by the adrenal glands as part of the fight-or-flight mechanism. The fight-or-flight mechanism is part of the general adaptation syndrome defined in 1936 by Canadian biochemist Hans Selye of McGill University in Montreal. He pubished his revolutionary findings in a simple seventy-four line article in Nature, in which he defined two types of "stress": eustress (good stress) and distress (bad stress).

Both eustress and distress release cortisol as part of the general adaption syndrome. Once the alarm to release cortisol has sounded, your body becomes mobilized and ready for action—but there has to be a physical release of fight or flight. Otherwise, cortisol levels build up in the blood which wreaks havoc on your mind and body.

Eustress creates a "seize-the-day" heightened state of arousal, which is invigorating and often linked with a tangible goal. Cortisol returns to normal upon completion of the task. Distress, or free floating anxiety, doesn't provide an outlet for the cortisol and causes the fight-or-flight mechanism to backfire. Ironically, our own biology—which was designed to insure our survival as hunters and gatherers—is sabotaging our bodies and minds in a sedentary digital age."
