Love and Health; how to make them work |

A good writer in Latin America once said “love has not been utilized (as at time of speaking) and would suffer more accident in the modern times. Alfredo Gonzalez, who worked in one of Argentine’s most popular media houses, literally meant people do not express love and receive it in return either romantically or within family and friend circles.

If our contemporary life is brought into account, Gonzalez’s prediction may have come to pass with the issue of love overlooked in many relationship, family matters and normal relations. Relationship is meant to relief of our loneliness, emotional baggage, sexual needs, and provide us with mutual support for success in life.

In relationship and daily casual life, people are looking forward to be loved and practically over pay for that, and somehow cannot find the perfect love at all. In midst of any of the two contemporary challenges, the has been the impartation on emotional, mental and physical health.

For instance, at this our time, it so common that a man will chase a prospective woman of her life ‘longer beyond the expected period’ and may even lost out on the woman at the bottom of the race. In fact, most women explore this opportunity and use it as a element of manipulation to drain men emotionally and psychologically. For example, the more a woman plays high emotional hard-to-get games that hold men’s interest in them over a sustainable period, most men develop thinking problems- which they hide them, and generally become insecure in their subsequent relationship(s).

Additionally, women’s understanding of love and relationship- i.e to be with a single man over a ‘longer period of time’ but in reality most relationships are short term before it grooms, has led them to lower appreciation and expressing of love, and develop low self esteem. And because they have not been more open to love when in relationship, they have never enjoyed the true love that their beauty deserves and have generally not get long and healthy relationships.

Most relationships have turned into arena of physical assaults and abuse due to lack of love between partners.

Love and health links

Love and health has a direct link as showing love solve many health problems, studies have highlighted. Former American television host, author, producer, and Presbyterian Fred McFeely Rogers claim that “Knowing that we can be loved exactly as we are gives us all the best opportunity for growing into the healthiest of people.” Who could argue with that? Loving and being loved

Mr. Rogers wise knowledge support that idea that love offers individuals several health benefits. Aside this claim, researchers have also revealed through various studies that the art of love lowers blood pressure, reduce anxiety, improve immunity, lessen pain, and longer life.

Love releases positive emotions- happiness, confidence, attachment and security that impact blood levels, anxiety levels, immunity and long life. Loving and being loved make us healthy and look incredibly attractive to significant others. In multiple studies, researchers have shown that people in happy, loving marriages tend to have lower blood pressure levels. But, the state of matrimony isn’t the key—it’s the loving part, researchers found in one study.

These researchers looked at married couples and singles, and found that people in “high-quality” (ie, loving) marriages had lower ambulatory systolic blood pressure than singles. Interestingly, both happily married couples and singles had lower blood pressure levels than people in “low-quality” marriages. “Therefore, marriage must be of a high quality to be advantageous,” the researched highlighted. “In other words, one is better off single than unhappily married”—at least in terms of blood pressure.

On anxiety, people in long-term stable relationships can be just as madly in love as people in intense, new relationships, according to researchers who used functional MRI (fMRI) to analyze the brains of people in love. However, the researchers found a significant difference between long-term couples (who were together at least 10 years) and new couples. They found out that Love reduced anxiety in people in long-term romantic relationships.

“Results for long-term romantic love showed recruitment of opioid and serotonin-rich neural regions, not found for those newly in love. These systems have the capacity to modulate anxiety and pain, and are central brain targets for the treatment of anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and depression,” the researchers wrote via MDLinx.”

Aside reduction in blood pressure and anxiety levels, true love is understood to affect a person’s cold. Researchers reported that falling in love boosts immunity, which helps fight viral infections like the cold and flu. For this study, the researchers conducted genetic profiling in 47 women. They found that women in love had changes in the gene regulation of immune cells.
“These findings are consistent with a selective up-regulation of innate immune responses to viral infections,” the researchers wrote. “These effects emerged above and beyond the effects of changes in illness, perceived social isolation, and sexual contact.” The researchers speculated that these changes may also be preparing a woman’s body for pregnancy. (Sorry, guys—no word yet on whether love can fight colds in men).

Love also lessens pain buttressing a generic notion that love hurts. Overall, being in love (and being loved in return) lessens feelings of pain, according to a body of research. In one study, researchers used fMRI to monitor people who were in love. While under moderate and high thermal pain, participants were shown pictures of their romantic partner and then an equally attractive and familiar acquaintance. They were also given a word-association distraction task known to reduce pain. it appeared that those who were shown pictures of romantic partner had a reduced pain.

“Greater analgesia while viewing pictures of a romantic partner was associated with increased activity in several reward-processing regions… [that were] not associated with distraction-induced analgesia,” the researchers noted.

On longer life, couples in happy, stable relationships live longer. Specifically, those who described their marriage as “very happy” or “pretty happy” had 20% lower odds of dying early than those who described their marriage as “not too happy,” according to one study that included more than 19,000 married US adults.

Just as we should seek out positive, loving relationships—from a partner, a friend, or even a pet—we should also avoid being single which in itself has eventually become a modern-day health hazard. Love is a vital element and not just an art but a medicine used for treatment of many health conditions.

How to make love and health work

If love is a medicine- that people spend hundreds of global currencies to purchase- seeking love must be prioritized over all other things. Love should be cherished and for its sake over other inside and outside relationship benefits. Both men and women have to express love whether in short and long-term relationship to their partners for elimination of most negative health issues.

As humans beings, there is the big need to express and receive love to enhance our functionality. Men have to love their women, show them care and protect them from dangers. Women have to respect their men and give them good sex. Both men and women should go in for the kiss without hesitation and resistance to alleviate mental issues like anxiety. Most women should limit most unwanted demands placed on men because reduction in demand can bring everything including commitment and true love from a spouse. Women should limit games they play in early stage of relationships. Men need to limit lies in relationships, and seek the emotional well being of their women.
