women are more likely to die of a broken heart... agree ?

In her new book, heart surgeon Dr Nikki Stamp explores how modern medicine is only beginning to understand the connection between body and emotion

“There’s a lot of positive physiology and positive actions that happen in the body when you’re in a relationship. When you have social connection and emotional connection, it seems that our brains recognise that as something that means you’re healthy.”

Unconditional Lovers ... what do you think ?

I have actually seen this more in men. Although according to a recent study more women are likely to die from a heart condition (a normal one not emotion based) if their doctor is male. But I have seen more men just stop living after their spouse dies.
The details are fuzzy cause it depends on what the conduction is from in the first place and the person who is treating it.

@canusernamebemyusername at the end of the day we all need someone to love and care for .. that's being engaged in life. Moment we have no purpose we start to disengage in life and start our journey towards end. Its not a gender based thingy actually..
