Un estudio muestra que depende mayormente de si la pareja está abierta a una relación seria

MARTES, 31 de agosto (HealthDay News/HolaDoctor) -- Las personas que "ligan" para sexo casual pueden tener una relación a largo plazo tan satisfactoria como los que se lo toman con calma y establecen una relación significativa antes de tener relaciones sexuales, según un estudio reciente.
Investigadores de la Universidad de Iowa analizaron encuestas de relaciones y encontraron que la calidad promedio de la relación era más alta entre las personas que se lo tomaban con calma que para los que se involucraban sexualmente en "ligues", citas casuales o relaciones de "amigos con derechos".
Sin embargo, tener relaciones sexuales pronto no era el motivo de la disparidad, según Anthony Paik, sociólogo de la UI. Cuando descartó a las personas que no estaban interesadas en una relación seria, encontró que los que se involucraban sexualmente con amigos o conocidos y estaban abiertos a una relación seria eran igual de felices que los que tenían citas pero aplazaban las relaciones sexuales.
El estudio analizó una encuesta de 642 adultos heterosexuales en Chicago. Para medir la calidad de las relaciones, las personas respondieron a preguntas sobre cuánto amaban a su pareja, su nivel de satisfacción con la intimidad en la relación, el futuro de la relación, y cómo sus vidas serían distintas si la relación terminase.
"No observamos mucha evidencia de que las relaciones fueran de una calidad muy baja porque comenzaron como ligues", aseguró Paik, profesor asistente del Colegio de Artes y Ciencias Liberales, en un comunicado de prensa de la UI.
"El estudio sugiere que las relaciones satisfactorias son posibles para los que posponen el sexo. Pero también es posible que el amor verdadero surja si las cosas comienzan con un método más parecido a 'Sexo en Nueva York', donde la gente cruza las miradas, tienen relaciones sexuales, y luego construyen una relación", añadió.
El estudio aparece en la edición de agosto de la revista Social Science Research.

Nordic Walking Benefits, ADHD and Diet, Supplements and Cancer, Sources of Fiber

A Better Way To Walk: Nordic Walking Improves Quality of Life, Depression, and Functional Capacity SciTechDaily Reference: “Sustained Effects of Different Exercise Modalities on Physical and Mental Health in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease: A Randomized ... Dietary Interventions for ADHD: Emerging Research and Considerations There has been increasing interest in the role that diet and supplements play in the treatment of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms, from patients and researchers alike. Diet is an important treatment approach to consider, as it is a lifestyle change rather than a medication. Additionally, at least 10% to 30% of children with ADHD are non-responsive to, or experience adverse effects from, ADHD medications­­­­.1 A dietary approach to ADHD can be complementary to a conventional pharmacological approach, giving patients and their families more options toward a personalized treatment plan. This article will examine current research about di

More People Are Microdosing for Mental Health. But Does It Work?

By Dana G Smith. Joseph started microdosing psychedelics five years ago to try to improve his mental health. “I was just kind of in this depression, in this rut,” he said. “I was unhappy and angry and agitated all the time, and it went against the way that I saw myself.” Depression and anxiety run in Joseph’s family, and he’d been prescribed Prozac as a kid. But when symptoms of depression returned in his early 30s, he didn’t want to go back to a prescription drug. Joseph, an Austin-based designer (he asked to withhold his full name, citing privacy concerns surrounding mental health issues and illegal drug use), came across research from Johns Hopkins University about psilocybin, the active ingredient in hallucinogenic, or “magic,” mushrooms. In a small study, full doses of the drug helped cancer patients cope with depression and anxiety. Then he read anecdotes of Silicon Valley influencers claiming increased energy from taking tiny doses of psychedelics. So he decided to start microdo

Exploring the Link Between Circadian Rhythms, Longevity, and Wearable Data: Insights and Future Directions

A recent study in NHANES 2011–2014 explores the potential connection between disruptions in circadian rhythms, measured using wearable devices, and their impact on health outcomes and longevity. The study analyzes data from 7,297 U.S. adults collected through wearable accelerometers as a novel digital biomarker for longevity. Five distinct clusters were identified based on activity profiles: "High activity," "Low activity," "Mild circadian rhythm (CR) disruption," "Severe CR disruption," and "Very low activity." The findings reveal that young adults with extreme circadian rhythm disturbance exhibit higher white blood cell counts and accelerated biological aging. Older adults with circadian disruption are associated with increased systemic inflammation indexes, advanced biological aging, and higher all-cause mortality risk. The research underscores the importance of circadian alignment for longevity at all ages and suggests that wearable
