According to a new study, attractive people are less likely to have tinnitus, asthma, high blood pressure, among other ailment. It was also discovered that feel healthier, they have less sick leave and receive have fewer mental and physical health throughout their life problems.
This amazing discovery is based on a study of 15,000 individuals of both sexes, with an average age of 24-35 years who were monitored since they were 10 years old.
This study is the most important thing has been done on the relationship between beauty and good health, and the first to focus on a large number of individual diseases.
The study was based on interviews with people representing samples of the US population. Only, unlike other cases, the level of beauty was based on the rating of the participants who were face to face, replacing an evaluation are photos, drawings or videos.
The researchers, whose work was published in the journal Evolution and Human Behaviour, said that beauty can be a sign of good genetics, which is also a sign of good health, which in turn increases the chances of having children healthy .
Apart from interviews and questionnaires face to face, a study on the health status of participants was made. Men and women must respond if they suffered many diseases or if they had symptoms that indicate it.
The level of beauty was based on the assessment by each interviewer, after a session of 90 minutes. Men and women were placed in five categories: Very attractive, unattractive, average and attractive. As a result, it was found that there was a relationship between the level of beauty and the presence of health problems. While higher the rating, the lower ek} l risk of disease.
It is known to have a partner has a positive impact on health, especially in men. According to research, the less graceful men have a 7% less likely to have couple (women are 9% less) than individuals with good. In addition, ugly men also tend to have fewer children.
The fact consider beautiful some features may be motivated by evolution, and increases the possibility of having children.
For example, long legs in a woman can provide a visual clue to be in good health to have a child. The Gdansk University, Poland, suggests that tall women have wider hips that allow you to larger babies with more ease.
But Dr Viren Swami, associate professor of the department of psychology at the University of Westminster, suggests that there may be other explanations that are not related to evolution.
"People think 'what is beautiful is good or is good , ' This is called halo effect , " he explains. "It is perceived attractive people as having all kinds of beauty, positive qualities, and are seen as happier people, popular, successful, among other things."
" We also treat them better than people give them less attractive and more social space (ie, more time and understanding to perform their tasks), and have more chances of receiving our help."
If that is the case, then it is possible that the health benefits are the result of better treatment.
"For example, the beautiful people have higher chances of being hired, less likely to be dismissed, and earn higher wages. Therefore, your good health can be the result of better business results. "
"Otherwise, the less attractive people may have less recourse to health centers for fear of being judged or stigmatized, as with obese or overweight, which affects their health."
"Therefore, better health may be indirectly the result of receiving better treatment in society".
"Importantly , I am not suggesting that the prospect of evolution is incorrect, it is not only the most complete explanation".
