Laughing is good for your health; here are some of the benefits….

• Lower blood pressure
• Increase blood flow and oxygenation of the blood
• Give a workout to the diaphragm and abdominal, respiratory, facial, leg, and back muscles
• Reduce certain stress hormones such as cortisol and adrenaline
• Increase the response of tumor and disease-killing cells
• Defend against respiratory infections and even reduce the frequency of colds
• Increase memory and learning; in a study at Johns Hopkins University Medical School, humor during instruction led to increased test scores
• Improve alertness, creativity, and memory
