When’s the last time you laughed? This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young Medical Minute. There is a reason that serious people die young and often miserable. Our bodies and brains need a break from all the stressors of life. If you aren’t having any fun, chances are your health will suffer. According to one study out of Loma Linda University Medical Center of California, laughing has physiological benefits that include lowering blood pressure, reducing stress, and improving immunity. If you find yourself too busy to have fun, then you are just fooling yourself. Fun and laughter should be a part of your everyday life, not just saved up for special occasions. Many a doctor, have written prescriptions for laughter or vacations when they see a patient getting too wrapped up in their job or the stressors of life. Start analyzing your day. If you’re not laughing, its time to change things up.You have the power to live a healthier future! Get started today by visiting STAY YOUNG AMERICA DOT COM.

Leave it to Finland to find a connection between reading skills and nutritional intake. Researchers studied children in the first and third grade and found that there was a direct correlation with higher reading levels and the amount of vegetables, fruits, fish, and whole grains they consumed. On the contrary, those that ate sugary foods, red meats, and processed carbs did not fair so well. It leaves me to think that children in the US are so far from their actual learning potential. Imagine what they could do if everyone incorporated a healthy diet at home and at school.

Do you struggle with acne? I may have some good news for you. This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young Medical Minute. Acne is caused by the backup of dead skin cells and oil in hair follicles. This leads to pain and inflammation in the follicle itself. Around forty to fifty five percent of adults aged twenty to forty experience adult acne. It can lead to skin infections, scarring, and low self-esteem. A study was recently published in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology stating that researchers are working on a vaccine to prevent acne. So, how does it work? Well, it works by attacking the toxin secreted by acne vulgaris. This reduces the inflammation to the hair follicle. Talk to your doctor if you are experiencing persistent acne.
