According to Research, Online Gaming Can Reduce your Stress ...

Online gaming is known to do a lot ? waste time, provide entertainment, help people double their monthly income, but it is also known to reduce levels of stress as well. A study done at McGill University in Montreal, Quebec, Canada stated that online gaming may actually be good for people?s overall health. This study demonstrated that after playing some online games, which included online casino games, individuals were a lot less stressed. In fact, cortisol levels, the hormone responsible for inducing stress, fell by 17 percent on average. For a number of behavioral scientists, this is strong proof that there is a correlation between online gaming and reducing stress levels.

There have been other studies to prove the same thing as well. A study done at Eastern Carolina University that lasted for six month and had 134 subjects found that online gaming can reduce stress and elevate one?s mood. A study at Oxford University also revealed that online gaming may be beneficial for those suffering from PTSD ? post traumatic stress syndrome.

An online casino also recently conducted their own informal research study using Blackjack players. In this informal study, it was noted that 74 percent of all the players in the study felt that online casino games were a great way to have an enjoyable time as well as reduce stress. Those players that said that online casinos did not help reduce stress levels played online casino games with much higher stakes involved. Another survey, this time using Roulette players demonstrated the same thing ? approximately 77 percent said that online casinos were a great way to reduce stress.

So, if someone is having a bad day at work or at home, take a minute to play a few online casino games and watch as the stress melts right off!
