Level Term Life Insurance News - protected.co.uk

Men who have had a heart attack or stroke and males who have type 2 diabetes have similar long-term mortality risks, a new study has found.

The Canadian Medical Association Journal reveals that during the first five years of the study, men with type 2 diabetes had a lower risk for cardiovascular mortality than those males who have suffered a previous stroke or heart attack.

But in the long term, the risk of death was the same for both groups, news which may be important for family men without life insurance.

Dr Gilles Dagenais and his team from Laval University and the University of Montreal, note that "men with type 2 diabetes and no previous cardiovascular disease had a threefold cardiovascular mortality risk compared with men with neither cardiovascular disease nor diabetes at the beginning of the follow-up".

Meanwhile, it was recently reported by the University of California Los Angeles that men with low incomes are more likely to be diagnosed with later-stage prostate cancer than other males.

As such, life cover such as level term life insurance could help to financially support a partner until they retire and their children up to the age of 18 should the worst happen.
