10 truths about why men die younger than women

Population life expectancy data from countries around the world show that the average life expectancy of women is 7 years longer than that of men. Why do women live longer than men? The following 10 reasons may be the truth. For men, if they want to live as healthily and long as women, apart from the unique physiological characteristics of women that cannot be imitated, they might as well learn more from women in other aspects.

1. Women are safer:

Men are more likely to work in dangerous occupations and jobs, such as warfare, driving, mining, etc., while women are more likely to work in low-risk occupations such as secretarial work, medicine, literature, education, housework, etc., and have a lower risk of premature death and disability than men.

2. Women are healthier:

Men have more unhealthy lifestyles such as smoking and drinking, which lead to a high incidence of chronic diseases and are more likely to cause premature death and disability, while the opposite is true for women.

3. Women are more hygienic:

Generally speaking, compared with men, women pay more attention to personal hygiene, prefer to take a bath, wash their hair, wash their face, wash their hands, brush their teeth and pay attention to food hygiene, which reduces the chance of infectious diseases.

4. Women love to cry and nag:

For men, crying is often considered to be unmanly and unforgivable, while women who cry are seen as cute, sentimental and weak. Studies have shown that crying can not only relieve psychological stress, but tears can also eliminate toxins from the body in a timely manner.

A man who loves to nag will be despised as "nagging", but a woman who loves to nag is considered a virtue. It turns out that frequent nagging is equivalent to psychological catharsis at any time, which is equivalent to regular self-psychological treatment.

5. Women eat less:

On average, women eat less than men, which puts less burden on their gastrointestinal tract and reduces their calorie intake, reducing their risk of chronic diseases. Scientific research shows that overeating can increase the number of free radicals in the body and increase the risk of cancer.

6. Women love to comb their hair:

Combing your hair regularly every day is equivalent to physical therapy for the brain, stimulating the vitality of the cerebral cortex.

7. Women have softer personalities:

As the saying goes, women are made of water. Although they look extremely fragile, they can actually wear away a stone. Women have a character as gentle as water, are better adaptable to the environment, are more psychologically resilient, are more able to endure adversity, and have a stronger tolerance to harsh social and natural environments. Psychological resilience makes it easier for women to absorb severe external blows and gives them greater psychological buffering.

8. Women face less social pressure:

Although men and women have the same flesh and blood, society has higher expectations of men's achievements. They are more often given social roles as heroes, guardians and leaders. They are under greater social pressure and are more likely to suffer from physical and mental illnesses and die prematurely.

9. Women have unique physiological phenomena:

Monthly menstrual blood loss stimulates the activity of the human hematopoietic system. Pregnancy and childbirth are an "emergency war mobilization" for all systems of the human body, which has a good promoting effect on human immunity, digestion, metabolism and environmental adaptability.

10. Women have a higher proportion of body fat than men:

A high fat content in the body provides better protection for the human body, such as a greater tolerance to cold. It also makes the body more elastic, reducing the chances of fatal injuries such as serious fractures in the event of an accident.
