One of the best feelings in the world is being in love.
But did you know that aside from giving one that giddy, happy feeling, being in
love also helps keep one healthy? There are various medically-proven health
advantages that come with having a strong affection for someone special.
MediCard, a leading health maintenance organization, celebrates the month of
love by sharing with you the health benefits of being in love.
Reduces stress
Ever wonder why people who’ve been hit by Cupid’s arrow
always have that grin on their face? That’s probably because when you’re love,
your body produces lower levels of cortisol, a hormone that induces stress.
That’s why those who are in love are most likely to be in the best mood – all
smiles and laughs that makes them more optimistic and energized.
Helps maintain a healthy lifestyle
You will notice that having a loving partner inspires you
look good. Women tend to stay longer in front of the mirror, fussing on their
faces, skin and hair. Men, on the other hand, become more inspired to hit the
gym and tone those muscles. Plus, it’s
a proven fact that people who are in love
are less likely to be depressed and rely on the bad habits of smoking or
drinking which takes a toll on your health.
Lengthens life
A happy relationship lets you live a longer life. The
feeling of “being loved” feeling also contributes in work of the body system.
It increases your heart rate and enables a healthy circulation of the blood;
the sense of touch that is handy in dealing with pain by the simple hugs and
holding of hands.
This Valentine’s Day, don’t forget to say how much you
love the people around you and make their heart skip a beat. You can also
encourage them to start a healthy lifestyle by simply eating the right food,
getting regular exercise and going to the doctor for regular check up.
