There are millions of people with diabetes worldwide, according to a new study that has found a link between long-term loneliness and type 2 diabetes. In this regard, thousands of people over the age of 65 on average have been studied for many years.
At the beginning of one study, no one was diagnosed with diabetes, but later some people developed type 2 diabetes. Overall, six percent of them developed it and developed type 2 diabetes.
In this study, experts also noted the severity of loneliness in people with diabetes and found that in some people, they were also more likely to develop diabetes.
Research conducted at the University of California used a scale developed by a psychologist to indicate loneliness. The questionnaire assessed the severity of loneliness among people and asked a question: how many times a day do you miss someone and how often do you consider friends a part of your life?
Experts have found that loneliness leads to alcoholism, inactivity and smoking. In addition, questions were asked about the weight, blood pressure and other ailments of all participants.
In addition, all aspects of mental illness were thoroughly examined. Experts also noted depression and stress. Other factors included social isolation and general isolation.
Most importantly, loneliness causes the body to release certain hormones that cause depression and stress. Cortisol is the most prominent of these. It can also lead to heart disease, high blood pressure and diabetes, but science says that if your loneliness is too long, it can have profound negative effects.
