Scientists from West Virginia University have shown that marriage can actually increase blood pressure, which increases the risk of developing hypertension. This disease also increases the risk of stroke. The results of the study were presented in the journal Journal of the American Heart Association.

Researchers analyzed blood pressure levels in 1,086 households from the UK, 3,989 from the US, 6,514 from China and 22,389 from India. It was found that the risk of high blood pressure was 9% higher if people were married. Moreover, this situation was also observed in people who married or married the spouse of a high blood pressure patient diagnosed before marriage.

The findings highlight the potential benefits of using paired approaches to diagnose and treat high blood pressure, such as participating in programs together rather than treating people individually, the authors said.

“If your partner has hypertension, you are more likely to suffer from the same disease. Lifestyle changes such as being more active, reducing stress, or eating healthier can lower your blood pressure. But it is difficult to change your lifestyle alone, so it is important for both partners to maintain a healthy lifestyle,” the authors said.
