Q: A new study says that people who do this are less likely to die early?

A: Volunteer

PEOPLE WHO VOLUNTEER FOUND TO BE LESS LIKELY TO DUE PREMATURELY: Helping others out could actually keep you alive, according to new research. A review of 40 international studies found that those who regularly help out in their community are 20-percent less likely to die prematurely than those who never volunteer. Researchers say the review showed that volunteering also has a positive effect on mentla health by increasing satisfaction and reducing depression. Researchers admit that they’re still unsure if healthier people were just more likely to have time and energy to volunteer, or whether volunteering to help others actually improved their health.
