For instance, a smile can tell someone that you\u2019re friendly and approachable. It can also tell someone else that they\u2019re appreciated, or that you enjoy their company. Smiling isn\u2019t just a way of communicating, though. This simple act has other far-reaching benefits. In today\u2019s post, we\u2019d like to highlight five of the biggest so that you have even more reasons to smile every day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reason #1 <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In medical research, it\u2019s been found that smiling can have a positive effect on your blood pressure by lowering it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reason #2<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Smiling produces more antibodies and white blood cells, which helps your immune system stay strong in the face of colds and other issues.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reason #3<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>According to research conducted by the University of Illinois, people who are happier, and who smile more as a result, \u00a0live almost 10 years longer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reason #4<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Smiling releases the feel-good hormones known as endorphins, as well as serotonin, a natural stress-reducer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reason #5<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>DePauw University in Indiana found that people who smile consistently reported having a healthier marriage than those who don\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s keeping you from smiling? Is it misaligned or stained teeth? Or do you possibly have gaps in your smile that you\u2019re trying to hide?
