Relationship Problems and Heart Disease

In a just released study that followed over 9,000 British civil servants for more than 12 years it was reported that people in couples with relationship problems were more likely to develop heart disease.

Do bad relationships equal heart disease? I don't know.

Take a look at the study itself which was in Archives of Internal Medicine, Volume 167, Number 18, October 8, 2008, page 1951 - 1957.

Actually, there are studies that point in the other direction. And, of course, the other from that one.

Bottom line question, I guess, is "How do you want to live, whether it gives you heart disease or not?"
