A recent study found that people who read are two and a half times less likely to be diagnosed with Alzheimer’s Syndrome later on in life. Although this does not mean that reading will prevent the disease, it proves a slight relationship between reading and prevention.

A 2009 study at the University of Sussex found out that reading can reduce stress by up to 68%. It works better and faster than other relaxation methods, such as listening to music or drinking a hot cup of tea according to the research. This is because your mind is invited into a literary world that is free from the stressors that plague your daily life.

That's because people who wander away from their homes for a little vacation are generally less stressed and anxious — or at least they're willing to take a break from their stressors. Because of this, the long-running Framingham Heart Study found that men and women who traveled annually were less likely to suffer a heart attack or develop heart disease. Credits: Matador Network.

This condition is called Broken Heart Syndrome. Affecting more women than men, the distress triggers the release of certain chemicals that can weaken the heart, leading to chest pains and shortness of breath. Credits: Jo Kingsley, kidadl.com
