Hello. This is 6 Minute English from BBC Learning English.

I don't know, Sam, what is a rat's favourite game?

Well, I'm glad you're laughing because, as we'll be finding out in this programme, laughter is good for you! In fact, laughter is often called 'the best medicine'.

And it seems that's really true, medically speaking. Laughing releases anti-stress endorphins into the body and there's evidence that people who laugh recover more quickly from illness, including Covid.

Laughing is an essential part of what makes us human.

Babies cry straight from birth but the next sound they make, often as young as two or three months, is laughter.
