A study from Carnegie Mellon University indicates that marriage has positive health effects by lowering cortisol levels, a stress hormone. The research involved testing saliva samples from 572 adults and found that married individuals had lower cortisol levels compared to those who were single, separated, divorced, or widowed. The findings suggest that intimate social relationships may influence health, although the exact mechanisms remain unclear.
