Study Reveals Single People May Die Sooner

Even so, a study of 67,000 Americans from 2006 showed that single people still tend to die sooner than widowed, divorced and separated women, in addition to married people.

Previous research has also shown poor health outcomes for people living alone. A UK study released in 2001 showed that middle-aged men living alone had a 23 percent increased risk of dying earlier than their married counterparts, The Telegraph reported.

But single people can disprove the assertions of these studies by doing regular exercise, eating healthy food, staying away from toxic things, not stressing, or perhaps trying to find a soulmate.
