Let's Just Cuddle
He & She|October - December 2018

I’m a cuddle monster. I’ve been a cuddle monster since I was very, very little. There’s just something about getting all snuggled up with someone that gets me, every time. I always thought it was because I’m a natural-born hedonist, but apparently there are some major health benefits to cuddling, too.

Let's Just Cuddle

1 IT RELEASES OXYTOCIN

A lot of the health benefits from cuddling are directly related to the oxytocin boost it gives you. Oxytocin is sometimes called the “love hormone” because it’s triggered by all the love stuff: kissing, cuddling, having sex. When you’re cuddled up with someone, your brain releases more oxytocin than it would when you’re, say, cleaning or working or doing anything else not love-related.

2 PROMOTES BONDING

The first health benefit of oxytocin that scientists isolated was that it’s released in order to promote bonding between women and their babies. But it turns out it’s not just great for mother/child bonding - it’s also excellent for connecting more strongly with a romantic partner or a good friend.

Spice Is Always Nice

If you love eating food so hot that your eyes run, your nose streams, and you're still feeling it several days later, there's good news for you: spicy foods have some health benefits you probably didn't know about. Evidence suggests humans have been adding spice to their food for many centuries. That love for the tingle in our lips has been passed down through generations, and for good reason. While it may seem contradictory that a type of foodstuff that gives us pain while eating it could also have health benefits, science is increasingly revealing that indulging in chili peppers and other eye-wateringly hot spices is a good thing for our hearts, our brains, and our lifespan in general.
