July 6th is World Kissing Day. Find out how kissing can help fight obesity, tooth decay and prevent strokes.

Losing weight

A passionate kiss lasting more than 20 seconds can burn 30 kilocalories. When kissing, a person's heart rate increases and the amount of adrenaline in the blood increases. The body's energy reserves are used up faster, which triggers the consumption of glucose and fat tissue, improving metabolism, so scientists believe that you can start losing weight faster even if you do not follow a strict diet.

Reduce stress

Thanks to the biochemical reactions that are triggered in the body during kissing, stress resistance increases and nervous tension is eliminated. The stress hormone cortisol decreases. And the love hormone oxytocin increases. According to research, people who kiss regularly are less likely to suffer from insomnia and depression.

Protects against tooth decay

To prevent tooth decay and periodontal disease, dentists recommend kissing after eating to normalize the acidity in the mouth. Kissing increases saliva production, which helps remove plaque from teeth.

Kissing helps prevent heart attacks and strokes

When kissing, the body releases epinephrine and norepinephrine, which make the heart beat faster. Blood supply to all organs is improved, so blood pressure drops, the heart and blood vessels are trained to work better.

Lungs are exercised

Many people hold their breath during a quick kiss - it's a form of lung exercise. Kisses that last several minutes increase the depth of breathing. Cells receive more oxygen.

Kissing smooths out wrinkles

The “French kiss” engages more than 30 different muscles in the face. According to researchers, while the muscles are active, their cells are saturated with oxygen, which improves blood supply. Such a natural facial exercise helps prevent premature aging and smooths out existing fine lines.

Improve brain function

As American researcher Young Fisher notes, because when kissing the heart rate increases, the brain receives more oxygen. This contributes to the brain processing information faster, as well as improving the function of remembering information and increasing concentration.

Increase immunity

About 80% of the bacteria in everyone's mouth are the same, while 20% are unique. When you kiss, you exchange your bacteria, which stimulates your immune system to create antibodies.
