Why Fish Keeping Is Great For You - Why Fish Keeping Is Good For Your Health

Hi there friends in this video I am going to show you why fish keeping is great for you. Can fishkeeping make you feel better? Some studies indicate that it can. Watching colorful fish swim around in an artfully designed aquarium is like watching a moving painting. Colors and movement – along with the relaxing sound of tiny bubbles breaking the water’s surface – is relaxing. It can soothe the nerves, relieve anxiety, and even help release tension in the muscles. ▶Why Fish Keeping Is Good for You? Fishkeeping can actually improve your health. Watching fish swim in an aquarium has been linked to health benefits for people with high blood pressure, insomnia, anxiety disorders, and even Alzheimer’s disease. In one study, elderly people suffering from high blood pressure were given an aquarium filled with colorful, entrancing fish. The result was a substantial reduction in blood pressure. Aquariums have also been used as a therapy method for hyperactive children. And in another study, people who suffered from nervousness about going to the dentist’s office were separated into two groups: One was given hypnosis therapy and the other was asked to watch an aquarium. The aquarium group reported having the same or better relaxation benefits than the hypnotized subjects. In fact, other studies involving dentists’ offices proved that people who watched an aquarium prior to their appointment required less pain medication. And a study involving Alzheimer’s patients showed that those with an aquarium to look at required few supplements ate more food, and were less likely to show physically aggressive behavior. Even watching a videotape of fish swimming in an aquarium has been proven to have therapeutic benefits. ✔Benefits of Fish Keeping: Aquariums are one of the most affordable ways to have household pets and the most convenient. After the initial installation, they don’t need a lot of attention, unlike dogs, cats or other animals. And fish is one of the most low-maintenance pets.
