    How The Movies Affect Your Health

    We see movies as entertainment, but they're also more than that. Different types of movie genres could also play an effect on your health.

    Movies
    Accident Pro Prime

    Whether you're at home watching a rom-com or in the theatres for an action blockbuster, movies are a prime from of entertainment. Did you know genres can affect your health in different ways too? Here's how.

    COMEDY

    Good or bad, the one thing all comedies have in common is that they make you laugh�some harder than others.

    Accident Pro Prime

    ROMANCE

    In the mood for love? A good romance flick affects your body just as much as your emotions.

    Accident Pro Prime

    HORROR

    Not all stress is bad stress; a good jump scare may be more beneficial to you than you thought.

    Accident Pro Prime

    ACTION

    Fast cars and superheroes do more than just keeping you on the edge of your seat.

    Accident Pro Prime

    MOVIES FOR BETTER HEALTH

    Overall, movies entertain and offer your mind an escape. They also affect your health in more ways than you know.
