#631: Serious people die young: Medical Minute

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.
