The Joke Is On Heart Disease

Catching a funny movie could help you ward off a hear attack. The Greece scientist found that when people sat and watched comedy for half an hour, the humor hit temporarily improved the flexibility of their coronary arteries. The connection? Laughing reduces your body's production of cortisol, a stress hormone that causes your arteries to stiffen, which in turn hampers blood flow and increase your odds of an infarction. Try to crack yourself up several times a week, but be careful when you buy popcorn at the movies: Not all theater have taken the trans fats out of the "buttery topping". Ask before buy (and kick) the bucket.- Men's Health



Laughter is the best medicine folk!
