Revealed, Religious People Longer Longevity
Happy life is touted as one of the longevity recipes. However, some studies show, having a religion is closely related to living a long life.
One of the most comprehensive studies was a study published in JAMA Internal Medicine in 2016, which found that women attending religious activities of any type more than once a week had a 33 percent lower risk of death than anyone who had never attended religious activity.
This 16-year study shows that you do not have to be ustaz, priest, nun, priest or anything else just to have a long life.
Tyler VanderWeele, co-author of JAMA's research and professor of epidemiology Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, reveals that religious factors, such as socializing, social support, optimism, self-control and life purpose turn out to be a factor that benefits longevity.
