Maybe you've heard the phrase "an apple a day keeps the doctor away", but what about "a laugh a day keeps the doctor away"?
The idea that humor could actually affect the immune system has been a question on a lot of people's minds. In fact in 2007 there was study conducted with 40 students to measure the correlation between laughter and health. They concluded the test showed no direct effects and more evidence was needed to be found.
Though they concluded what they did, I still find this pretty cool. It does make sense that laughter could have a positive impact on the immune system. With developing technologies in the world today, I'm sure the answer to this intriguing question is not far away. But for now I'll just stick to laughing 30 minutes each day.
