A University of Michigan study suggests couples with similar drinking habits tend to live longer. Analyzing data from over 9,000 heterosexual couples, researchers found those who both drank moderately had longer lives.
The study, published in The Gerontologist, warns against seeing this as a reason to drink more. It's unclear why shared drinking habits link to longevity, but it underscores how lifestyles affect health.
Kira Birditt, a research professor, notes that couples with similar alcohol use often have better marriages. However, what's good for marriage isn't always good for health.
The study, focused on heterosexual couples and not specific alcohol types, calls for more research. Understanding these dynamics could benefit same-sex couples and explore the impact of different alcoholic beverages.
