Kiss Your Allergies Away
With Mothers' Day just a couple of days away (ugh, that rhymes!), this is going to be the ultimate treat for mothers with allergies out there: a passionate kiss.
Researchers at Satou Hospital in Japan say that a passionate 30-minute kiss can reduce the body's allergic reaction to pollen.

Underscore passionate. These researchers do not mean a peck on the cheek.

Their tests showed passionate kissing relaxed the body and reduced production of histamine, a chemical released in response to allergens.


Thirty minutes. Whoooah. And no cheating, cuddling doesn't count. What the article didn't say is whether that 30 minutes should be uninterrupted, or cumulative. Ah, just try it and tell me if it works. Against hay fever, I mean.
