The health benefits of positivity are remarkable. Studies point to a reduced risk of high blood pressure, depression, diabetes and cardiac disease. Positive thinkers also live longer and are better able to fight off infection, cope with pain and recover from major surgery and illnesses. What's more, they also may have a better quality of life when living with chronic conditions.
There are likely a number of elements at work when it comes to explaining why a sunny outlook equals better health. For instance, positive thinkers sometimes make better health choices. A Finnish study found that optimists ate more fruits, vegetables and low-fat cheese than pessimists, and that pessimists were more likely to eat low-fibre food, drink alcohol, smoke and have a higher body mass index. Other studies have taken factors such as smoking, age, gender, ethnicity and waist-to-hip ratio into account and optimists still come out on top, health-wise. One such study, published in the American Journal of Epidemiology, reveals that optimists have lower levels of the stress hormone cortisol (high levels of cortisol can wreak havoc on your immune, digestive and cardiovascular systems) and lower levels of two markers of blood inflammation associated with a higher risk of heart attack and stroke.
