Recent studies show that people who do kind acts arc more relaxed, happier, and healthier than other people.In one study at Arizona State University, researchers foundhat many volunteers experienced a sudden feeling of joy, followed by a long period of calmness, after doing a kind act. This feeling, called “a helper's high”,may actually help reduce stress as the body produces natural painkillers.Stress can cause serious health problems. It can lead to high blood pressure and heart disease, and it can also lead to overeating and sleeping problems. However, the study found that volunteers had fewer stress-related health problems when they did helpful things for other people.The study also found that people who did nice things for others felt better about themselves as well. They had higher self-respect, and were happier. Many believe this is because volunteers spend more of their (ime with other people. People who are more outgoing are often healthier.Another study at the University of Michigan's Survey Research Center confirmed the health benefits of volunteering. A ten-year study of 2,700 men in Michigan showed that people who volunteered lived longer than those who didn't. Although you shouldn't need a reason to be helpful, it is nice to know that kindness may help you live longer.37. According to Paragraph I, what do recent studies show?38.
