Laughter is the best medicine – and it can even help you lose some weight!


Have you laughed today? 

If not, put that at the top of your to-do list. Laughter truly is good medicine. It decreases stress, boosts immunity and can even help us lose some weight. Laughter changes our body’s chemistry. A good old-fashioned belly laugh actually burns belly fat by lowering our cortisol levels. Even just anticipating or thinking about laughing starts the process.

So how much weight cold you potentially laugh off? About four pounds a year IF you’ve got a healthy laugh life. You’ll need to laugh for a total of 15 minutes a day. It doesn’t have to be all at once, every chuckle counts.
