5 Health Benefits of Laughter

The stressful movie slowed blood flow by 35% and the comedy increased blood flow by almost 22%. Laughter improves the function of blood vessels and increases blood flow and lowers high blood pressure, which in turn helps protect your heart against heart attack and other heart problems.
