The old saying "laughter is the best medicine" isn't just a cliche.
"It's hard to hold on to tension when you have a good laugh," Brock said. "Humor is a good way to stay healthy."
Just the physical act of laughter:
* Activates the immune system, making us less likely to become sick.
* Decreases stress hormones. A good laugh also reduces the levels of stress hormones epineprine and cortisol.
* Releases endorphins, which may help reduce the intensity of pain in those suffering from arthritis and muscular spasms.
* Is great aerobic exercise.
