In this weeks video, Dr. Matthew Davis, director of Crossroads Chiropractic, shares important information looking at how your personality traits can have ‘life or death’ impact on your health.
➤A recent study found that a pessimistic attitude increases the risk for death from heart disease♥️, while an optimistic outlook may have no effect at all. High levels of pessimism have been linked to factors that affect cardiac health, such as inflammation.
➤In a recent study, 2,200 men and women ages 52 to 76 were asked to rate positive and negative statements on how well the statements applied to them.
➤During 11 years of follow-up the scientists found that those in the highest one-quarter of scores on pessimism were more than twice as likely to die of heart disease ♥️, yet being optimistic had no effect on death rates one way or the other.
➤So Cheer up! Because pessimists are more likely to die of heart disease, and remember, when life hands you lemons making lemonade might just be the healthiest choice.
