I recently came across this in "Quackwatch"
If you have happy thoughts, then you make happy molecules. On the other hand, if you have sad thoughts, and angry thoughts, and hostile thoughts, then you make those molecules which may depress the immune system and make you more susceptible to disease.
Apparently, it's a quite from Deepak Chopra. There is quite a lengthy article here .

Now, what do happy thoughts make.....................

Well, I think there is no argument that happiness makes health - do we know how? Maybe Chopra's got a point. Have you got a better explanation? Has quackwatch?Originally Posted by bindeweede

And, sorry, "quite" should have read "quote". But you know what I mean.

It's to do with hormones and biochemistry, such as levels of cortisol and adrenaline which vary with stress. There is also an extent to which happy people are more likely to spend time trying to be healthy, wherease unhappy people just don't care.
The "happy molecules" thing is almost kind-of right, but expressed very stupidly with a whole load of other crap which is totally meaningless.
