Music on your Brain

CNN recently published an article talking about what kind of effects music has on the human brain. One question was, does music help your health? Dr. Levitin and his colleagues conducted many research projects and found that listening to music after surgery help patients with their anxiety better than some patients who were just on anti-anxiety medication. Dr. Levitin found that music releases immunoglobin A, an antibody linked to immunity. There is much more information in the article but I thought this was the coolest. Below is a link to the article to read more about their findings!
