Who Needs Friends? You Do, If You Want To Be Healthy

by Gabrielle Lim0

We focus so much on our well-being that sometimes we become a little selfish. We work on self-improvement, healing ourselves, and increasing our wealth that we sometimes forget about our friends.

Studies have shown that the key to a healthy and long life may be in our friends and social interactions. One 10-year study done in Australia really drove home the point.
