Men die faster than women because of their risky lifestyles!

Recent findings by the researchers from Leeds Metropolitan University in England indicate that young men throughout the world have higher death rates than women because of their riskier lifestyles.

Deaths from illnesses such as heart disease, cancer and chronic liver disease rise sharply in 35- to 44-year-olds. The researchers said deaths due to cancer, heart disease and chronic liver disease showed the importance of lifestyle habits such as smoking and alcohol consumption which are known to raise the risk of developing the disorders.

Men tend to have higher chances of developing the majority of cancers. Also, they are dying from it sooner.
