Kissing Benefits On Lips
Kissing boosts immunity.
A recent study
reported in the journal Medical Hypotheses says kissing may increase a woman’s
immunity from Cytomegalovirus. Cytomegalovirus, contracted through mouth to
mouth contact, can cause infant blindness and other birth defects if the mother
is a carrier during pregnancy. Otherwise, the bug is relatively harmless in
adults. Kissing has long been thought to be a way to pass along bugs and thus
strengthen the body’s defenses.
Kissing helps you pick the best
mate.
Anthropologist Helen Fisher describes kissing as a
“mate assessment tool.” Much of the cortex is devoted to picking up sensations
from around the lips, cheeks, tongue and nose. Out of 12 cranial nerves, five
of them are picking up the data from around the mouth. It is built to pick up
the most sensitive feelings—the most intricate tastes and smells and touch and
temperature. And when you’re kissing somebody, you can really hear them and see
them and feel them. So kissing is not just kissing. It is a profound
advertisement of who you are, what you want and what you can give.Other researchers
note that kissing is biology’s way of determining who in nature you are most
genetically compatible with. “At the moment of the kiss, there are hard-wired
mechanisms that assess health, reproductive status and genetic compatibility,”
says Gordon G. Gallup Jr., a professor of evolutionary psychology at the State
University of New York at Albany who studies reproductive competition and the
biology of interpersonal attraction. “Therefore, what happens during that first
kiss can be a make-or-break proposition.”
Kissing burns calories!
Depending on different reports, anywhere from 2 to 6
calories a minute. Not quite a jog on the treadmill, but an hours worth of
smooching may burn off half a handful of M&Ms or half a glass of wine. Hey,
it’s something. Being On

Kissing keeps facial muscles strong.
Sure tight abs or cellulite-free thighs may be first
on the Tone Up list, but don’t underestimate the workout your mouth gets during
a makeout session. Researchers say you use 30 muscles while kissing and the
smooching helps keep your cheeks tight. Nice. We’ll take what we can get.
Kissing naturally relaxes you.
Scientific reports say kissing increases the levels
of oxytocin, the body’s natural calming chemical and also increased endorphins,
the body’s feel-good chemicals. Swapping spit is also noted to increase
dopamine, which aids in feelings of romantic attachment.

How to Get Rid of Dark Circles Under Eye
How to Get Rid of Dark Circles Under
Eye:
That was the question I used to ask myself every single morning. And
finally, I decided I had enough and that it was time to fix this problem once
and for all, so I’ve started with a bit of research on remedies for those
unseeingly under eye dark circles . Turns out, there are various ways to get rid of under eye dark circles as
well as there are different reasons why they occur in the first place. So, to
make sure you too get rid of this problem.
It
could be a symptom of an allergic
reaction or kidney infection. If other symptoms are also present, such as
fever, skin rash, or difficulty breathing, consult your doctor right away. If an allergy is
involved, find out what foods you are allergic to and eliminate them from your
menu. The most frequently occurred allergies are to newfangled foods, such
as commercial pasteurized milk from
hormone-treated cows, processed grains, fruits and veggies with residual
pesticides, and other products that people had never eaten until just
several generations ago. Allergies can also be caused by commercial beautyproducts, such as under-eye
creams or mascaras.
Dark
circles under the eyes tend to age us more than wrinkles or grey hair. Discoloration
of the under-eye skin affects many of us from time to time. For others, the dark circles can persist as a long-term
feature, sometimes as a result of an illness, but often as a result of
allergies, inadequate sleep, and
even heredity. Whatever the cause, you can still minimize the appearance of
dark circles under your eyes; in some cases, you'll even be able to remove the
circles completely. Try out some of the cures offered below, to find your
favorite.
