Do you think laughter can help you deal with pain? Scientists from Britain did two experiments(实验). The first was done in a lab. People wore special wristbands(腕带). Some of them were asked to watch comedies while others watched serious programs. Then the scientists tightened(勒紧)the wristbands to see how much pain the people could feel.
The other test was done at an art festival. Some people watched a comedy show and others watched a drama(戏剧). At the same time, they had to put their backs against the w
all and keep their legs bent(弯曲的)just like sitting on a chair. They did this before and after the show.
Scientists found that just 15 minutes of laughter improves people's ability to stand pain by 10%. However, the serious programs and the drama didn't make a difference to pain at all.
The study found that the magic power of laughter comes from endorphinsparisinthespring怎么读(内啡肽). These are chemicals(化学物质). They are produced by the human body. They make you feel less pain and can make people feel happier.Exercise can produce endorphins. Your muscles(肌肉)move in and out when you are laughing. Scientists believe that this makes your muscles tiring, so we start to produce endorphins.
Scientists also found that the only real and relaxing laughter works not just polite laughter.
Next time you have a headache, get together with a group of Mends, watch a funny movie and laugh. You will soon feel a lot better because laughter is the best medicine.
