  • There's reliable evidence that laughter improves various aspects of mental, emotional and physical health. Experts explain why it's effective and how to increase your daily dose.

The article from Fox News discusses how laughter can significantly benefit health and healing, according to experts. Laughter is described as a powerful tool that not only improves mood but also has physical health benefits. It can reduce stress hormones, increase immune cells and infection-fighting antibodies, improve blood flow, and even relieve pain. The article highlights that laughter triggers the release of endorphins, the body's natural feel-good chemicals, promoting an overall sense of well-being. Furthermore, it mentions that engaging in activities that provoke laughter, like watching comedies or participating in laughter yoga, can enhance one's quality of life, potentially leading to better heart health, lower blood pressure, and a stronger immune system. The piece also includes insights from health professionals who advocate for incorporating humor into daily life as a form of preventive medicine.
