So far, many studies have been conducted on the relationship between personal lifestyle and health, and public health campaigns use their results to promote healthy diets and exercise among people. New research by researchers at the Universities of Kent and Reading in the UK now shows that in addition to the link between personal lifestyle and health, a healthy lifestyle can lead to feelings of life satisfaction.
This study is the first of its kind to explain causation rather than a comprehensive link between happiness, fruit and vegetable consumption, and exercise. They used a tool variable to filter and categorize any effect from happiness to lifestyle.
The results showed that the ability to delay satisfaction (Delay Gratification) and self-control (Self-Control) has an important role in the life decisions of each person and this has a positive effect on health. The study also found that, on average, men exercised more and women ate more fruits and vegetables.
Of course, lifestyle diseases are one of the leading causes of death in the world, and Britain is one of the European countries with the highest rates of obesity. Given this, the results of this study can have a positive impact on public health policy-making, especially in Europe.
Personal behavioral tips in each person’s life can have a positive effect on setting long-term goals in life, and this, in particular, can lead to the creation and maintenance of a healthy lifestyle. If a healthy lifestyle can make us healthier and happier, then this is a double-edged sword.
