I have taken my fascination with jokes and anything funny a bit further by creating this lens. Sure there are a lot of jokes resources out there and they are some of the best. But here are some fascinating facts about laughing which is why I chose to create a joke lens to help spread the joy of laughing:

From BUPA

* Laughing is thought to help you to fight off illnesses by boosting your immune system. It increases the amount of immunoglobulins, natural killer cells and T cells in the body, which fight infection and tumours.

* Laughing reduces pain. Children watching comedy films relax more and tolerate pain more easily. In fact, humorous videos are being used in anaesthetic rooms at Manchester Children's Hospital. And an American nurse has found that telling jokes to her patients before she administers a painful treatment reduces their discomfort.

* Laughing reduces allergic responses, including hay fever symptoms.

* Laughing lifts your mood - even if you have to force yourself to laugh.

* Laughing reduces the effect of stress by lowering stress hormone levels.

* Laughing helps keeps diabetes under control. It may help to control spikes in blood sugar levels after a meal, reducing the chances of diabetic complications. In one study, people who watched a funny video during dinner had lower blood sugar levels after the meal compared to the people who watched a lecture video.

Because of the miraculous wonders of laughter, I've decided to create a blog called Jokes per Day where you can find jokes, funny quotes and funny pictures from all over which you can always check out whenever you're burned out or whenever you could use a good laugh.
