Being Grumpy Can Make You Sick


This is the result of a real study! We've heard the expression, "Worried Sick." Now you can get sick from being grumpy.

For the past 15 years, Professor Carsten Wrosch has been paying his mortgage by investigating how emotions affect people. He said: "Bitterness may forecast patterns of biological dysregulation, a physiological impairment that can affect metabolism, immune response or organ function and physical disease."

If you are getting grumpy about your tax dollars going to fund a grant for such research, don't be...the study was done in Canada.
