笑一笑，十年少。對動物來說也是。關于修養(yǎng)身心你能做的最自然最有利的事就是笑了。不管你是撲哧一笑，哈哈大笑，呵呵笑，捧腹大笑還是帶有你特征的奇怪的咯咯笑，笑都是最好的藥。笑是幾乎所有疾病的預防藥?？茖W家對此表示同意并敦促我們放輕松，每天多擠出笑容。研究人員也表示愛笑的人一般更健康快樂。下面是愛笑的10個好處：

10.They have reduced stress.

10.減輕壓力

In a recent study at the Indiana State University, researchers found that laughter can not onlyreduce stress, but also improve the chances to survive cancer and HIV. The simple act ofchortling can soothe tension throughout the body and also lower the body's stress hormones.

最近在印第安納州立大學有一項研究，研究員發(fā)現(xiàn)笑聲不但能減輕壓力，還能提高癌癥和艾滋病的治愈率。哈哈大笑這樣一個簡單的行為就能舒緩緊張的身體，減少應激激素，何樂而不為?

9.舒緩焦慮感和恐懼感

That'sbecause laughter releases the feel-good hormones dopamine, serotonin and endorphins. Theselittle guys work to improve your mood, enhance your experiences and ease feelings of fear andanxiety.

因為焦慮感和恐懼感會不利于情緒健康，所以愛笑的人比脾氣暴躁的人和從來不笑的人更有優(yōu)勢。這是因為笑會釋放感覺良好的激素，如多巴胺，羥色胺和內啡肽。而這些小家伙們又會努力改善你的情緒，增加你的經驗，減輕你的焦慮感和恐懼感。

8.改善呼吸健康

Laughter flushes the lungs with fresh air and helps you breathe more deeply. People who love tolaugh inadvertently stretch their lungs, increase their heart rate and reinvigorate their entirebody when laughing. This is equal to a splash of cool, fresh, rejuvenating water for therespiratory system.

笑有利于肺部吸入新鮮的氧氣，有利于我們進行深呼吸。當愛笑的人在笑的時候，他們的肺部擴張，心率增加，全身恢復精力。這就相當于給我們的呼吸系統(tǒng)來了一瓶干凈酷爽的回春水。

7.They have lower chances of heart disease.

7.遠離心臟病

A study conducted at The University of Maryland found that there is a link between laughterand cardiovascular health. Laughter causes the tissue that composes the lining of blood vesselsto expand, allowing for better blood flow. In other words, people who love to laugh improve thefunction of their blood vessels and increase blood flow. This helps protect their heart fromdiseases.

馬里蘭大學的一項研究發(fā)現(xiàn)笑和心血管健康之間存在著聯(lián)系。笑會導致血管內壁組織擴大，有利于血液充分流動。換句話說，愛笑的人可以改善血管的功能，增加血流量。這有助于他們遠離心臟病。

6.用之不盡的天然止痛藥

People who laugh freely don't need morphine and other pain killers quite as much. That'sbecause the feel-good hormones released into the system when you laugh not only help easefear and anger, but also help to relieve pain. No wonder more and more people are turning tolaughter yoga to ease their troubled minds and bodies. They want to tap into this and otherbenefits of laughter.

愛笑的人不需要嗎啡和其他止痛藥。那是因為當你笑的時候，身體里會釋放感覺良好的激素，不僅有助于緩解恐懼和憤怒，也有助于緩解疼痛。難怪越來越多的人正在轉向大笑瑜伽，放松他們的身心。他們想挖掘笑這樣或那樣的好處。

5.They have reduced aggression tendencies.

5.攻擊性更弱

People who love to laugh tend to be significantly less violent and aggressive in society. That'sbecause laughter offers a healthy outlet for pent up negative emotions of anger andaggression. A simple chuckle; for example, can help defuse a conflict. Even better, laughinghas a relaxing effect on the whole body that lasts for up to 45 minutes. This providesimportant psychological benefits for jolly people.

愛笑的人大大減少了社會暴力和侵略性。這是因為笑為壓抑已久的憤怒和侵略的負面情緒提供了一個健康的發(fā)泄方式。例如，一個簡單的笑就可以化解沖突;更好的是，笑能讓全身有一個長達45分鐘的持久放松效果。這對快樂的人們提供了重要的心理幫助。

愛笑的人另一個好處是，笑在減少了應激激素后，能改變含氧量，改善氧氣流通。笑也是發(fā)泄負面情緒的健康方法。所有的這些東西加在一起，能提高免疫應答，確保愛笑的人保持健康。當你笑的時候，你體內T細胞的數量也增加，也就增強了免疫系統(tǒng)。

根據巴爾的摩的馬蘭大學醫(yī)學院的研究，笑能帶來和鍛煉同樣好的效果。但我們對這一結果感到并不驚訝，因為愛笑的人在笑的時候肩膀在運動，腹部肌肉也相應收縮，因此愛笑的人獲得了規(guī)律的小型鍛煉。

2.更青春，更活力

People who love to laugh have a radiant glow about them that not only makes them lookyouthful and beautiful, but also attracts others to them.

愛笑的人往往自帶光環(huán)，不僅讓他們看起來更年輕，更漂亮，也更有吸引力。沒錯，笑讓你能吸引他人。根據研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，男人更愛笑得理智的女人，女人則更喜歡能逗笑她們的男人。一個喜氣洋洋的微笑是你臉上最好的化妝品。
