Through the years plenty of studies have been conducted to test the effects of smelling farts on our health.

And, much like beer, the results are almost always positive.

Well, the most recent study about farts – this one conducted in England – found farting may help the farter live longer AND the smell of farts might prevent dementia.

It’s a win-win!

Just add those health benefits to the growing list that already includes protection against heart disease, diabetes, cancer, strokes and even arthritis.

And, the stinkier the better… at least that’s what the scientists say.
