The Royal Family Doctor

You have heard it said that “laughter is the best medicine.” Indeed, most of us have experienced the pure joy associated with a good belly laugh. Laughter is often just what we need to snap us out of a foul mood or distract us from worry. It is also one of the best weapons we have to fight disease. In his bestselling book Anatomy of an Illness as Perceived by the Patient, Norman Cousins described his own recovery from a life-threatening condition, which he credited in large parts to laughter induced by watching Candid Camera and funny movies. Cardiologist Michael Miller from the University of Maryland has demonstrated that “mirthful laughter” works likes exercise and statins to postpone heart disease by a variety of mechanisms that reduce endovascular inflammation.
