Look at the beauty of nature and works of art such grandeur Grand Canyon as well as paintings on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, or listen to music that makes us shiver like the song Ave Maria Schubert's work was found to increase the body's defense system. Researchers from the University of California at Berkeley found that positive emotions, especially a sense of awe for the natural beauty, art, and spirituality of lower levels of cytokine proteins that trigger inflammation.
"This protein signals the immune system to work harder," said Jennifer Stellar, principal leader of the study, as quoted by Science Daily. This study he published in the journal Emotion.
Stellar said, the findings suggest that positive emotions associated with markers of good health. Although required to bring the body's defense cells to fight against disease, high levels of cytokines that indicate poor health, type two diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, and even Alzheimer's.
During this time, scientists believe a blend of sleep, eating, and exercise will boost the immune system. Studies of the University of California, Berkeley is the first study that shows that positive emotions also served to increase the immune system.
"Wonderful things that encourage a more healthy levels of cytokines that turned out to have a direct influence on the health and life expectancy," said a member of the research, Dacher Keltner.
In two separate experiments, more than 200 adults were questioned to what extent and when they feel positive emotions. Gum and cheek tissue samples of people who experience positive emotions that day had the lowest levels of cytokines.
