Study finds that people with low marital satisfaction are more likely to suffer from high blood pressure Recently, a new survey by U.S. research staff found that people in happy marriages usually maintain normal blood pressure, while people with poor conjugal ties also suffer from dragging down their blood pressure, and even less healthy blood pressure than singles. Brigham Young University psychologist Juliana Holt-Lanstad reported recently in the electronic edition of the Annual Review of Behavioral Medicine that the research team selected a total of 204 married people and 99 single people, so that these people carry the device to record blood pressure values, married men and women also need to fill out a questionnaire on the quality of marriage. After the comparison, it was found that the higher the marital satisfaction, the more normal their blood pressure values. Those who gave their marriage a low score, blood pressure values are relatively high, even levels even higher than the blood pressure values of single people surveyed. The previous medical research has been that married people are usually healthier than single people. Marital disharmony is easily hurt by the “seven emotions” Bad emotions can also raise blood pressure For the above-mentioned latest foreign research results, domestic cardiovascular experts believe that there is indeed truth in it, and should attract widespread attention. Zhang Ming, chief physician at Nanjing Hospital of Integrative Medicine, said that many readers believe that hypertension is most closely related to the heart, but in fact, from the point of view of Chinese medicine, hypertension and a person’s emotional well-being and the health of the “liver” is also very close. For example, Chinese medicine has a liver qi stagnation type of hypertension in its classification of hypertension. Returning to the above topic, careful readers will find that people with low marital satisfaction will generally have dizziness, mental energy, depression, suspiciousness, dreams, fatigue, chest congestion and sighing, which are the main symptoms of patients with liver qi stagnation hypertension. Clinically, this type of evidence is mostly seen in early and mid-stage hypertension and some critical hypertension, and blood pressure values are often extremely unstable due to emotional fluctuations. Zhang Ming, chief physician, said that marital disharmony is easy to be “seven emotions” by the injury, Chinese medicine since ancient times there are seven emotions cause disease, mainly refers to the adverse emotions can hurt the internal organs, affecting the internal organs of the qi, so that the internal organs of the qi Qi elevation is not normal, qi and blood running disorder. In addition to the problems mentioned above, there is a typical example, such as Chinese medicine believes that “anger is qi up”, which refers to excessive anger can make liver qi rebellious upward, blood with qi rebellious, and go up. For example, families with marital discord are prone to high frequency of quarrels, venting their anger on each other, and over time, are prone to the serious consequences often seen in clinical practice, such as increased blood pressure, redness, or even fainting and collapse. A happy marriage should also pay attention to blood pressure because snoring can raise the spouse’s blood pressure So, is a happy marriage can keep high blood pressure away from both spouses? This is not necessarily the case, for example, many couples with a happy marriage have one or both of them snoring in their sleep, which is actually a relatively unhealthy phenomenon. Citing a report in the UK’s Daily Mail, Dr. Zhang Ming, chief physician, said new research shows that the health effects of snoring “thunderbirds” on their spouses may be far more serious than disturbing their sleep. Scientists have found that noise at night can cause a person’s blood pressure to rise, whether you’re sound asleep or tossing and turning. Violent snoring can reach 90 decibels, the volume equivalent to the sound of a passing train. Studies have shown that noise above 35 decibels can cause a significant increase in blood pressure, and these sounds include an airliner soaring overhead, an oncoming vehicle outdoors, or very loud snoring. General aircraft noise can cause an average increase in systolic blood pressure of 6.2 mm Hg and diastolic blood pressure of 7.4 mm Hg. For every 5 dB increase in noise, systolic blood pressure increases by 0.66 mm Hg. The type or source of the sound does not seem to matter; the volume is the issue.
