Some people say that laughter is the best medicine. Scientists are studying laughter carefully and finding
it is really good for us.
What happens when we laugh? We use fifteen different muscles in our face, and laughing is food for our
body. When we laugh, we breathe quickly and exercise the face, shoulders and chest. Our blood pressure goes
down, and our circulation gets better. Our heartbeat is lower. Our brain makes a natural painkiller.
Every minute we laugh is the same as forty-five minutes' relaxation. Many doctors around the world believe that laughter helps us get better when we are sick.
