Kissing is a romantic act of showing love for each other, but how did this act begin? People will vomit about this.
British newspaper “Daily Star” According to UK’s University of Warwick, “kissing” experts are convinced that this practice was started by our ancient ancestors “monkeys” about seven million years ago, and its purpose was to rid each other of fleas and lice.
Ancient apes used their lips to groom each other and remove itchy bugs from each other’s skin as they descended from the treetops.
Chimpanzees still use their fingers as combs to pick out bugs, and then pick them out and eat them.
Scientists believe that this practice has now survived as a form of expression of love rather than a grooming session.
“When apes make ‘kiss’ mouths to groom other apes, it shows a degree of similarity to human kissing that has not been seen in any other animal,” says evolutionary psychologist and kissing expert Adriano Lamera. .
Keep in mind that a study published in the journal Microbiome reported that a 10-second kiss can transfer 80 million bacteria and 700 different viruses and germs.
Researchers monitored the kissing behavior of 21 couples and found that couples who kissed at least nine times a day had similar oral bacteria.
Oral bacteria is normal and experts believe that kissing actually helps boost your immune system and gut health.
