Best Medicine, Hearty Laughter and Orphan Kids! - Feedback: @Health! Bill Gates and the president of General Motors have met for lunch, and Bill is going on and on about computer technology. If automotive technology had kept pace with computer technology over the past few decades, you would now be driving a V-32 instead of a V-8, and it would have a top speed of 10,000 miles per hour, says Gates. Or, you could have an economy car that weighs 30 pounds and gets a thousand miles to a gallon of gas. In either case, the sticker price of a new car would be less than $50. Why haven't you guys kept up? The president of GM smiles. Because the federal government won't let us build cars that crash four times a day. Dr. Know discusses a recent University of Maryland study, which concludes that laughter really is the best medicine for staying healthy. Learn more about laughter in this video from Discovery. People who laugh heartily on a regular basis have lower standing blood pressure than the average person. When people have a good laugh, initially the blood pressure increases, but then it decreases to levels below normal. Breathing then becomes deeper which sends oxygen enriched blood and nutrients throughout the body. Laughter can be a great workout for your diaphragm, abdominal, respiratory, facial, leg, and back muscles. It massages abdominal organs, tones intestinal functioning, and strengthens the muscles that hold the abdominal organs in place. Not only does laughter give your midsection a workout, it can benefit digestion and absorption functioning as well. It is estimated that hearty laughter can burn calories equivalent to several minutes on the rowing machine or the exercise bike. So I prayed and asked God how I can bless this little one who has been through so much. So after talking to Ps Maria I decided to invite Wendy and a few of the other orphan kids back to my house on Monday to eat and play and watch a movie with my boys. I picked up 4 of them and I wanted to feed them as much as I could (healthy), and they ate more than anyone I’ve ever seen. We watched a movie and then I moved all my furniture back and got our markers, crayons, Mr. Potato Head and every other toy we owned and we had so much fun. They were all so well behaved and polite, no fighting or whining. They loved the Hillsong Kids Worship DVD I played for them. Mason was so excited to serve them all juice and help me serve them food. Wendy fell asleep in my chair while the other kids played, so I sat beside her for a while and prayed over this little life, that God created for a plan and purpose. I’m excited to see what God has in store for His little children. Didn't find it? Enhances your Search Results with Glossary A-Z. Find specific keywords that point to the latest related news: Health.
