A person's mood is good or bad, which will directly affect his physical health. Studies have found that if you laugh a lot , you can get unexpected health effects. After all, what are the benefits of laughing at health? Today, I will introduce you to a study to show you the importance of laughter to people's health. After understanding this, you will find that laughing is a very interesting thing.
The benefits of laughing often are many
We Chinese people often say, "laughing and laughing for ten years", the latest medical research results abroad also show that often laughing, may help the body to prevent heart disease and stroke. Contrary to this, depression, especially depression and tension, will make the body more susceptible to illness or difficult to recover. For example, people who have been depressed for a long time or who have suffered sudden attacks are prone to heart disease. Medical research has confirmed that the risk of heart disease and stroke in people increases with the normal expansion of blood vessels, causing blood to fail to pass normally. The reason for this phenomenon is that when people are depressed, the brain often stimulates the body to secrete hormones that affect health, resulting in decreased immune system function and vasoconstriction. After people laughed, whether other hormones that promote health were produced in the body is still to be further studied.
In order to discover the effects of different external stimuli on blood flow in humans, the researchers selected 20 healthy men and women to conduct experiments. First, the investigators arranged for these people to watch thrilling action blockbusters and comedy movies, and then asked the health care provider to measure the degree of vascular expansion of the participants before and after watching the movie. It turned out that the thrilling movie can reduce the blood flow by 35%, and the laughter after watching the comedy stimulates the blood flow to increase by 22%, which is equivalent to the result of people taking 15-30 minutes of exercise. Nowadays, it is widely believed that exercising for 30 minutes a day is very beneficial to your health. In fact, insisting on laughing every day for 15 to 20 minutes will also make you gain a lot. Of course, a facial smile that is passively showing “courtesy” in the process of work or “welcoming to send” is not enough to produce similar health effects.
American scientists have studied some patients who have been hit by a major life and see the emergency department. They found that most of these patients have symptoms such as chest pain and belching , which are similar to those of heart attacks, but different from other heart patients. The above-mentioned self-proclaimed "heartbreaker" can be quickly discharged after being rested in bed and receiving a small amount of treatment. The researchers explained that people who suffer a major life shock will develop hormone secretion disorders, which may lead to cardiovascular contraction, causing symptoms similar to those of a heart attack. Scientists have pointed out that people have long known that a major life shock can cause heart disease and cause sudden death, but the "heartbreak" syndrome is different. It only causes symptoms similar to heart disease and does not cause serious health hazards. This new finding helps doctors make a proper diagnosis and avoid unnecessary heart disease treatment in patients with "heartbroken" syndrome.
Another study has also found that maintaining oral health can also reduce the incidence of heart disease and stroke. Many oral diseases can cause normal expansion of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, which can lead to heart disease or cerebral thrombosis. Some experts therefore suggest that adhering to the traditional "two times a day brushing and caring for oral health" is very beneficial to promote cardiovascular health. At the same time, other medical experts believe that how much sleep affects people's risk of heart disease. The study found that people who slept only 5 hours or less on average had a 39% higher risk of heart disease than those who slept for 8 hours a night, while those who slept more than 9 hours a night suffered from heart disease. The ratio is also increased by 37%. In this way, simply changing your lifestyle, maintaining a good attitude and living habits, can promote health through the simplest method.
Scientists have found through research that often laughing can not only improve mood, but also have the effect of preventing and treating diseases. Therefore, we should always laugh in our daily lives . Xiaobian reminds that laughing is a good thing, but being too excited is not a good thing. Chinese medicine believes that emotional changes too fast will hurt health, so the laugh we introduced today is not to surprise you, but to maintain a more pleasant mood.
