Besides the obvious show of love and affection and the boost it gives to a person's spirit, the humble kiss can actually be good for your health as well.
According to a Dutch study, kissing someone for just 10 seconds transfers 10 million bacteria; and they say that's good for you!
Alison Morris, MD, associate professor of medicine and immunology at the University of Pittsburgh says "Not all bacteria are pathogens. Most are beneficial. They protect against cavities and help shape the immune system."
Proving that there is a lot of power in a kiss!

DeleteWell, since it's practically medicinal... :D
ReplyDelete:) :) :)
DeleteCute!
ReplyDeleteWhat about kissing yourself in the mirror? No germ transfer! Bingo!
ReplyDeleteHave you seen my mirror? Would definitely be germ transfer there ... what is it with kids and flicking their toothpaste all over the bathroom mirror?
DeleteHmmm... single and childless so I don't get many kisses. Though I see my mum regularly and my friend's little 3 year old gives me a kiss or ten when saying hello and goodbye.
ReplyDelete3 year old kisses would be the best medicinal kisses around I reckon.
DeleteI was just telling a friend about how hubby and I had a cheeky pash in the kitchen the other day. It was nice as it doesn't happen often. :)
ReplyDeleteBINGO! You're cured :)
DeleteMwah

DeleteYay for kissing!
ReplyDeleteThough I'm going to clarify, that's yay for kissing my husband only. I don't mind his germs ;)
Agree!
DeleteLet ME clarify - agree to kissing MY husband only (not yours)
DeleteDoes it get much worse when your coughing up a lung and blowing your nose 100x a day
ReplyDeleteUmmm. You may have just disproved that theory ... eeek!
DeleteOh yay! The bacterial germs that make love infectious! Gotta love that:)
ReplyDeleteGood one Grace! Yep, that should be the kissy tag line
