"Married people are generally healthier than unmarried people, as measured by numerous health outcomes. ...  These studies find, for example, that marriage improves certain mental health outcomes, reduces the use of some high-cost health services (such as nursing home care), and increases the likelihood of having health insurance coverage. In addition, an emerging literature suggests that growing up with married parents is associated with better health as an adult. Marriage has mixed effects on health behaviors — leading to healthier behaviors in some cases (reduced heavy drinking) and less healthy behaviors in others (weight gain)."<ref>http://aspe.hhs.gov/hsp/07/marriageonhealth/rb.htm</ref>
