Humour Helps Enhance Health

Laughter is capable of producing the medical results that many

expensive drugs are prescribed to achieve-but without the risk of negative

side effects.  Laughing, researchers have found, can reduce blood pressure, 

induce a sense of euphoria, and increase muscle flexion. It also can have

profound effects on the body's immune system, enabling it to destroy

invading bacteria, viruses, and even cancer cells.

Laughter also has beneficial effects on the nervous and endocrine systems.

It provides "a safety valve that shuts off the flow of stress hormones,

the fight or flight compounds that come into play during times of

stress, hostility and rage." As a consequence, people who laugh a lot

are less likely to experience heart attacks than are their homourless neighbours.

Children, on average, laugh about 400 times a day; adults, only 15 times.

Parents and eductors, please take notice!
