LEFT-HANDED PEOPLE LIVE LONGER THAN THE RIGHT-HANDED: Everything you didn’t know

Every morning, millions of people wake up with the feeling that everything is reversed, upside down and that nothing suits them.

The door handle is on the opposite side of the door, gear shift in the car is placed to the right which they find impractical, the tool is adapted for right-handed people ...

Who are left-handed people, and are they different from right-handed people? These are mostly men - two-thirds of them belongs to the male sex. Handedness is often inherited from parents. It has been determined that 50 percent of parents who are left-handed - have left-handed children.

Left-handers make up only 10 percent of the population. This is, of course, true in humans. All other species from chimpanzees to chinchillas, equally used both hands.

Right-handed people in 95 percent of cases have a center for speech and communication located in the left hemisphere of the brain, while it is different with the left-handed.

Mensa, an association whose members are people with high IQs, also reports that one-fifth of their members -  are left-handed.
