Laugh more for your emotional health and heart
Laughter has advantages of its own. It improves mood and fosters a feeling of camaraderie among individuals. However, did you know that increasing your laughter can prevent heart disease? In a recent study, Yamagata University researchers observed the laughing patterns of 17,152 individuals who were 40 years of age or younger.
According to their research, we can improve our heart health by laughing more. The study has now forced the Japanese government to enact legislation requiring residents of Yamagata, a province in the north, to laugh every day.
According to the study, laughing more often can improve heart health and lengthen our lives. Globally, the advantages of laughter have been well investigated and analyzed. According to a study that was published in the journal Preventive Medicine, older folks can reduce their chance of contracting common health issues that affect people their age when they laugh more with friends and family.
Another study published in Nursing & Health Sciences claims that hearty laughter lowers the body's levels of the stress hormone cortisol and lessens anxiety. Laughter improves our mood and triggers the body's natural relaxing mechanism.
