Here is a summary of how humor contributes to physical health.


1. Muscle Relaxation - Belly laugh results in muscle relaxation.

While you laugh, the muscles that do not participate in the belly laugh, relaxes.

After you finish laughing those muscles involved in the laughter start to relax.

So, the action takes place in two stages.


2. Reduction of Stress Hormones - Laughter reduces at least four of neuroendocrine hormones associated with stress response.

These are epinephrine, cortisol, dopac, and growth hormone.


3. Immune System Enhancement - Clinical studies have shown that humor strengthens the immune system.


4. Pain Reduction - Humor allows a person to "forget" about pains such as aches, arthritis, etc.


5. Cardiac Exercise - A belly laugh is equivalent to "an internal jogging."

Laughter can provide good cardiac conditioning especially for those who are unable to perform physical exercises.


6. Blood Pressure - Women seem to benefit more than men in preventing hypertension.


7. Respiration - Frequent belly laughter empties your lungs of more air than it takes in resulting in a cleansing effect - similar to deep breathing.

Especially beneficial for patient's who are suffering from emphysema and other respiratory ailments.

My friend's son, a military policeman at Fort Hood, Texas, was assigned to the detail protecting Vice President Cheney when he visited the base.

He was issued an automatic rifle, along with 200 rounds of ammunition.

That weekend, his mom delivered a Jeep she had bought for him.

Since it was still in her name, however, his superiors told him he needed something before he could keep it on base: a note from his mother.


Returning home from basic training, our friend's son told us about some of the interesting people he'd met, including one guy nicknamed Airborne.


"Do the guys call him Airborne because he wants to be a paratrooper?" his mother asked.


"No, that's not it," said her son.

"He got that name because on his first night, he fell out of the bunk."

All of the Wal-Marts across the South sold out of ammunition as of yesterday.


A reliable source said that one of the purchasers commented that while Russia may have invaded Georgia, they sure ain't doin' it to the rest of the South!

Ponder this:

Why is women's underwear marketed to men?
