Cuddling
your way to heart health ( simple ingredient add a little love)
Have you ever noticed that "huggy" couples
seem happier and healthier?
Well, there's a reason for that, according to some University of North
Carolina researchers. They studied the
stress response and hormone levels of 38 couples before and after having them
watch an excerpt from a romance film and share a 20-second hug.
As it turns out, this scientist-induced "happy moment" resulted in a
lowering of stress hormones like cortisol and norepinephrine and a spike in oxytocin,
a hormone associated with love (especially the motherly, nurturing kind). The
result of these combined reactions lowered blood pressure and reduced stress in
the test's subjects.
According to the study's authors, these hormonal benefits to cardiac health are
likely what's responsible for the statistical boost in longevity and overall
health that longtime marriage confers — and also the root of why divorce
is linked to higher mortality rates.
So if you want a healthy ticker for yourself and your spouse, scoop her up (or
him, for you ladies) and dole out a big old dose of "snuggle
medicine" every day. This type of "prescription" is the
kind you can safely take multiple times a day, all year 'round.
Prescribing "snugs"

*Old People
I took my dad to the mall the other day to buy some new shoes.
We decided to grab a bite at the food court. I noticed he was
watching a teenager sitting next to him. The teenager had spiked hair
in all different colors: green, red, orange, and blue. My dad kept
staring at him. The teenager would look and find him staring every
time. When the teenager had enough, he sarcastically asked,
'What's the matter old man, never done anything wild in your life?'
Knowing my Dad, I quickly swallowed my food so that I would
not choke on his response; knowing he would have a good one.
And in classic style he did not bat an eye in his response. 'Got
drunk once and had sex with a peacock. I was just
wondering if you were my son.' *
