A quarrel at home may result in you falling
ill. Don’t laugh, it’s true. Family matters including living habits and even
the way we speak have a big effect on our health, doctors say.
Wang Xiaoyu, a Senior 2 girl from Xichang,
Sichuan Province, fainted (暈倒) in class when she heard her classmates quarrel at the top of their
voices. Quarrels between her parents also put the girl into a coma. It is
because she is suffering from depression (抑郁癥), caused by bad relations at home, doctors explained.
“We don’t get sick or stay well by
ourselves,” says Dr Robert Ferrer from the US. Ferrer shows that family forces
may explain up to a quarter of health problems, in his recent research.
The genes you get from your family may
cause illness. If one of your parents has a heart attack, your risk of being
affected may double. But effects on health are not only written in our DNA.
Unrelated people who live under the same
roof also get similar problems. Diet, lifestyle and environment affect our
health, too.
Ferrer’s research also found that if
teenagers feel they are ignored or unimportant at home they are more likely to
get sick.
We may never fully understand all the
effects that families have on our health. But just as individual (個別的) problems can have effects
on others, a small improvement can have big benefits, Ferrer said.
