RESULTS/INTERESTING FACTS

  • Pets can lower cholesterol because of an increase in walking.
  • When a person looks at their pet, it releases oxytocin in their brain which calms them.
  • Petting pets can lower blood pressure.
  • Since pets lower cholesterol, blood pressure and stress, they lower a persons risk of cardiovascular diseases.

Conclusion

The researcher hypothesized that the results of this research project would show that pets can have a positive impact on both a human’s physical and mental health. The research has proven the researchers hypothesis to be true.

10.

Since pets can help relieve pain, lower cholesterol, and help make a person more fit, among other things, it shows that pets can greatly improve a human’s physical health. Because pets can help relieve depression and boost a human’s self esteem it shows that pets can have a positive impact on mental health.

11.

If the researcher were to do this research project again, they would research the negative effects on your health that pets can have. This will allow for a comparison between the positive and negative impacts and reveal if it would be better or worse, overall, to get a pet.
