SOCIAL NETWORKS MATTER Psychologytoday
The strength of your friendships is as critical for your health as the lifestyle choices you make.
We've all heard the usual advice for living longer: exercise more, quit smoking, limit junk food. But nurturing your relationships plays an important role as well. Supportive friendships may do as much to promote your physical well-being as a top-notch diet and workout regimen. "The higher the quantity and quality of your relationships, the longer you live," says Bert Uchino, a psychologist at the University of Utah.
The connections that sustain us physically as well as emotionally can be hard to come by in a world where many work from home or live far from old friends. While cellphones and Facebook can help us feel connected, it's worth the effort to build up our in-person network as well. Some of the strongest evidence to support this theory comes from Julianne Holt-Lunstad of Brigham Young University, who collected data from 148 previous studies looking at the relationship between health and human interaction. What she found was startling: People with active social lives were 50 percent less likely to die of any cause than their nonsocial counterparts. Low levels of social interaction have the same negative effects as smoking 15 cigarettes a day—and even worse effects than being obese or not exercising.
Meanwhile, research by psychologist Sheldon Cohen of Carnegie Mellon University suggests that the more social connections you have, the greater your ability to fight infection. He gave healthy subjects nasal drops containing a cold virus; those who reported the greatest diversity of social ties were four times less likely to develop colds than those reporting the fewest (he controlled for factors that could have explained the discrepancy, including age, BMI, and time of year). But it's not just how many relationships you have that's important—the type is also key, according to Uchino's research. He recorded the blood pressure of 88 women in a stressful situation (preparing to give a speech) and found that readings spiked less when a close friend was available to offer participants encouragement than when they were with a friend they perceived as less supportive. The finding suggests that close friendships may have protective effects on our cardiovascular systems, especially in times of anxiety.
Researchers speculate that the stress associated with low social support sets off a cascade of damaging reactions within the body, including cardiovascular dysfunction and weakened immune resistance. "Stress has potentially negative effects on health and well-being," Cohen says, but knowing your friends have your back can help prevent such fallout.

世界百大美女 台灣上榜
Taiwanese teenage star on 100 most beautiful faces list CAN (By Christie Chen)
Taipei, Dec. 28 (CNA) Tzuyu (周子瑜), the Taiwanese member of South Korean girl group Twice, was ranked 13th on The 100 Most Beautiful Faces of 2015 released Sunday by American film review site TC Candler.
Sixteen-year-old Tzuyu, whose birth name is Chou Tzu-yu, was the only Taiwanese who made it onto this year's list, which has been presented annually since 1990.
South Korean singer Nana from the girl group After School topped the list for the second year in a row. Israeli actress and model Gal Gadot ranked second and British model Jourdan Dunn came in third.
Rounding up the top five were British actress Emma Watson (4) and Iranian actress Golshifteh Farahani (5).
The most recent Taiwanese to make it onto the list was actress Barbie Hsu (徐熙媛), who was ranked 89th in 2012.
The Facebook page of TC Candler said the annual list listens to "the hundreds of thousands of suggestions submitted every year, and tries to put together a list representative of the modern ideal of beauty," taking into consideration criteria including aesthetic perfection, grace, elegance, class, poise, joy, promise and hope.
It was unclear how the criteria were weighted and how they were used to come up with the final list.
