هل فعلاً يساهم الزواج في السمنة ؟

A recent study published by the National Institute of Cardiology in Warsaw has shown that marriage may be a contributing factor to weight gain, particularly among men, who have been found to be three times more likely to suffer from obesity compared to unmarried individuals.

According to the results, marriage increases the likelihood of obesity by 62% among men, while the rate for women reaches 39%. Researchers suggest that decreased physical activity, the frequency of shared meals and social occasions, along with a sense of stability, are factors contributing to this change.

The study also pointed out that societal acceptance of weight gain among men may reduce their motivation to adhere to healthy habits, while societal pressures on women remain stronger to maintain their weight.

The study's findings highlight the importance of promoting a healthy lifestyle among couples to prevent obesity and its complications.
