10 Health Benefits of Laughter

You probably heard the term "Laughter is the best medicine". More and more research in recent years is showing that this assertion is correct. Laughter has been shown to relieve pain, minimize the chances of getting sick and obviously, as a mood booster.

1. Reduce Aggression

We sometimes get the urge to snap and lash out, it's normal, but when the urge surfaces, you should pause, and try laughing instead. A leading psychologist in couples relationship, Dr. Fran Walfish, says that "Laughter relaxes the body and releases stress. It also is an acceptable healthy expulsion of aggressive impulses. The sound that is vocalized can be paralleled to a scream. There is a release. The trigger for laughter is often a helpful distraction to daily worries and concerns. This is an added benefit. Studies have shown that laughter reduces certain stress hormones such as cortisol and adrenaline."

2. Stress Reduction

Another benefit of lowering the levels of stress hormones is by literally reducing stress. When you feel like your stress is getting out of control and starts overwhelming you, find a reason to giggle, chuckle or laugh out loud. This will help you relax both mentally and physically. So if life is pushing you down, watch a comedy, see a couple of funny YouTube clips or read a funny book – Your body will thank you for it.

3. Improve Your Breathing

When you laugh out loud, you exhale longer, removing residual air from your lungs and replacing it with fresh air, richer in oxygen. Even if you start with a fake laugh, it will still be effective. This technique has been known to help people with asthma and other respiratory problems.

4. Better Skeletal Muscular and Cardiovascular health

Laughter is an effective muscle relaxer (the term "fall down laughing" is proof), a good laugh can help with stiff and sore muscles. Laughter also increases your heart rate and blood pressure, and when you stop laughing they return to normal. This reaction is similar to aerobic exercise, which helps improve your cardiovascular system.

5. Strengthen the Abdominal Muscles

When you're laughing, your abdominal muscles expand and contract, similarly to when you're doing sit-ups. Add to that that your other muscles get to relax while you're laughing and you're both working out and resting at the same time! Additionally, think of how much fun it will be to laugh while you exercise?

6. Immune System Booster

According to HelpGuide.org, "Laughter decreases stress hormones and increases immune cells and infection-fighting antibodies, thus improving your resistance to disease". Basically, the more you laugh – the less sick you'll get!

7. Increase Caloric Burn

When you laugh for approx. 10 minutes, your heart rate increases and you effectively burn around 40 calories. This is not a weight-loss method, however – you can't expect to laugh off that cheeseburger and large fries.

8. It Helps You Lower Mental Defenses

Do you surround yourself by walls and can't figure out how to break them down? Laugh! Genuine laughter is pure joy. It spreads positive feelings in your mind and body – it improves your outlook on life, letting you break down your mental defenses.. Just don't use it as a mask to hide your true feelings.

9. Improve the Creative Process

As humor helps break down your walls, it lubricates your mental gears. The founder of the Society for Humor Studies, Mr. John Morreal, says that: "Creativity and humor are identical," he says. "They both involve bringing together two items which do not have an obvious connection, and creating a relationship."

10. Affects Your Brain Similarly to Meditation

When a person laughs with true joy, their brain-waves' pattern are identical to a person in a true meditative state. The effects are both calming, as well as helping relieve pain. Laughter Yoga leader, Noreen Braman, says: "I have had fibromyalgia for many years, and since 2010 I have been finding pain relief through laughter, especially when I am leading a group in contagious laughter exercises."

Crucial Tips for Protecting Your Bones

Osteoporosis is a disease that damages the bones, weakens them and makes them brittle and breakable. There is a significant decrease in bone density, and this causes the bone to weaken and increases the risk of fractures.

Our bones are always building and breaking down bone tissue, when the balance between building and breaking is changed, then the bone density goes down. With age, this problem has a horrible way of increasing in occurrence.

Before you are 10 important tips for the treatment and prevention of decreasing bone density:

1. Yes, you guessed it - Physical activity.

Physical activity, besides being the best thing you can do for yourselves, helps the bones become denser by putting pressure on them, which may prevent the disease to begin with. We recommend using weights.

2. Increase your calcium intake -

Good sources: Green leaves, soy, sardines, broccoli and nuts. Regular bovine milk isn't that good a source of calcium because of its low absorption rate.

3. Increase your omega 3 intake - These fatty acids can be found in flax seeds of fish: Salmon, cod, and halibut - and are essential to keeping your bones strong.

4. Reduce caffeine and alcohol intake - Sorry, but coffee and alcohol 'release' calcium from the bones and damage the hormonal balance in the body important to keep them strong.

5. Reduce red meat - Seems like we're taking all the fun out of lunch, but eating red meat actually reduces the absorption of calcium in the body.

6. No smoking - Cigarette smoke damages bone density.

7. Eat nuts and almonds - These contain magnesium which is essential to the process of absorbing calcium.

8. Get at least 15 minutes of sun exposure a day - Exposing your skin to the sun a few minutes a day is the best way of getting your vitamin D, which function as a sort of glue and helps keep the bone density up.

9. Eat sunflower seeds - Contain zinc, a key mineral for maintaining strong bones.

10. Make sure you're not lacking in these elements, and take according to professional opinion: Boron, Silicone, vitamin C, vitamin D, calcium, magnesium, vitamin B12, vitamin B6 and folic acid.

Know more about Proteins !

Is it possible to live without protein? What happens when there is too much or too little protein in the body? What is the best fish protein, and what cheese? What differs animal protein from vegetable protein? and is the protein in eggs the best quality of protein?

30 interesting facts you did not know about... Protein!

1. Protein is a core building block for the trillions of cells in the human body. without protein, no life could exist. The only material which is more common in the body than protein is water. 18%-20% of the body is protein.

2. The human body has about 100,000 different types of protein. The body them needs to grow, heal and sustain all the body's chemical reactions.

3. The word protein is derived from the Greek word - proteios meaning "first".

4. Proteins in the body come in many shapes and sizes. Simple proteins look like "little trains" with a lot of cars. Each "car" or such protein unit, is called an amino acid. What is common to all the different types of proteins in the body is that they are all complex chemicals made from over 20 different types of amino acids.

5. While beef is a much more popular meat than chicken, the protein content is lower than that found in chicken meat.

6. Excess protein can also cause weight gain.

7. In 2010, the athlete Ben Pearson, then 20, increased his protein intake to increase muscle size. However, he did not know he had a rare genetic disorder that prevented his body from breaking down proteins. High levels of protein in his body caused increased production of ammonia in the blood, causing the brain to swell and tragically, caused Pearson's death.

8. Hair is composed of insoluble fibrous and non-digested protein called keratin. Keratin protein appears in the form of a coil and a creates the horned tissue of the body, such as nails and hair. Curtin has sulfur bonds that make hair curly. The more sulfur ties, the more curly hair.

9. Proteins, like carbohydrates and fats, are considered one of the major nutrients, this is because they provide energy (calories) to the body. While proteins and carbohydrates provide 4 calories per gram, fat provides 9 calories per gram. The only other substance that provides calories is alcohol. However, it is not considered one of the major nutrition sources of the food because it is not nutritious and people do not need it to survive.

10. Proteins present in certain foods can cause allergies, because the structure of the protein may trigger an immune response. For example: Many people are allergic to gluten, a protein found mainly in cereal.

11. Of all the types of cheese, Parmesan cheese that is low in sodium contains the most protein - 41.6 grams per serving of 100 grams.

12. Of fish, yellow tuna contains the most protein (30 grams per serving of 100 grams). After it on the list: anchovies (29 gr), salmon (27 g), halibut (27 g) and tilapia (26 grams).

13. The older and bigger a legume, so the amount of protein in it is larger. Of legumes, roasted and fully matured soybean seeds and adults contain the largest amount of protein - 39.6 grams per 100 grams.

14. Pumpkin seeds provide 33 grams of protein per serving of 100 grams, while watermelon seeds provide a little less than 28 grams per 100 grams.

15. Too much protein can be dangerous to the body. For example, high levels of protein can create a strain on the liver and kidneys and cause them to work extra hard to dismantle and dispose of the extra protein.

16. One of the smallest countries in the world, Luxembourg, is one of the largest meat-eating countries in the world. In Luxembourg, each resident can average about -136 kg per year. In second place are Americans with an annual average of 125 kg per person, and Austria comes in at third place with an average annual consumption of 120 kg of animal protein.

17. Although the population in India exceeds a billion, it is considered the country with the lowest meat consumption, with an average of 3 pounds of meat per person. In second place, Bangladesh with an average of 4 kg of meat per person and in third place, the Democratic Republic of Congo with an average Annual of 5 kg of meat per person.

18. The protein in eggs is considered the highest quality protein of all foods.

19. In the past, cow protein was considered the most eaten animal protein, today it is the pig.

20. Researchers found that certain mutations in protein may increase the risk of autism. Specifically, when a protein called Shank3 mutates, it can cause a disruption in the connections between neurons, which affects the chances of autism.

21. Without the protein called albumin, the entire human body would be swollen from liquids. Low levels of albumin are found in patients with hydrating (pathological accumulation of water), in people with extensive burns, kidney disease, problems absorbing food and people suffering from malnutrition. In third world countries - protein diet and lack of food are common problems that cause the swelling of the abdomen from the absence of albumin and osmotic imbalance of body fluids.

22. Protein deficiency can cause serious health problems. For example, children with protein deficiency may develop a condition known as Kooshiorkor. Symptoms include protruding belly, thinning hair, weight loss and faded skin color. If the phenomenon is not treated properly, it can lead to stunted growth, mental disorders and even death.

23. Protein found in male semen acts on the female brain to stimulate ovulation.

24. For most people, the recommendation is to consume 1 gram of protein per 1 kg of their body weight. Example: A man weighing 80 kg, should consume at least 80 grams of protein each day.

25. Failure to absorb protein can cause diseases such as Alzheimer's and cancer.

26. Insects provide a higher quality form of protein compared to many common forms of food. For example, 100 grams of beef steak contains 29 grams of protein and 21 fat - on the other hand, 100 grams of grasshopper contain 20 grams of protein and only 6 grams of fat.

27. Complete protein is a protein that contains all nine essential amino acids. In most cases (but not all) animal protein such as beef, chicken, fish, dairy products and eggs, is considered a complete protein. Incomplete protein sources for example are nuts and vegetables.

28. Protein intake affects the body in many ways. Mainly: bone cell synthesis, production of red blood cells, heart cells turnover rate, neurotransmitters responsible for mood, antibody immune function, producing enzymes and hormones, flexibility, muscle, organ function and balance of acidity.

29. Middle-aged people don't have the more flexible body of young people, which means they need to consume much more protein. But middle-age rate of acid production Hhidroclorit helps digest the protein down to half from its newsletters. Because protein is essential for cell regeneration, a large part of the researchers argue that this main reason for aging.

30. Vegetable sources of protein include legumes, nuts, seeds and fruit. Plants low in protein include roots and tubers, like yams and potatoes.
