A newspaper reported that Dr.Miller measured the blood flow of 20 healthy people before and after they watched two different movies—Saving Private Ryan (a war movie) and Kingpin (a comedy).The results were opposite.He found that their blood flow decreased during the war movie and increased during the comedy.As we know, exercise can make blood flow increase.Dr.Miller pointed out that laugh might be almost as healthy as exercise.
Dr.Wei Jiang of Duke University studied over 1,000 heart failure patients.He discovered that those who often felt sad had a 44% higher risk of death.In other words, being happy is good for our heart and helps us live longer.
The studies show that laugh is important for us to keep healthy.And it is free and has no bad effect.Many doctors today encourage patients to laugh.Some hospitals even have comedy rooms with TV comedy channels.And they believe the best way to live a long, happy and healthy life is to have a good diet, exercise regularly and add in a few laughs every day.
