Reported about 1 year ago

A recent study from Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health discovered that individuals who experience chronic loneliness are 56% more likely to suffer from a stroke. The research, based on data from nearly 9,000 participants aged 50 and older without a history of stroke, highlighted the importance of addressing feelings of loneliness to mitigate health risks. Recommendations to combat loneliness include participating in community events, nurturing connections with family and friends, and engaging in regular physical activity to reduce overall stroke risk.
