AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals partners with Loretta to emphasize the power of laughter in our health. Loretta recently completed a pamphlet with AstraZeneca on helpful tips for coping with life's ups and downs.

Preface for the new pamphlet - Have you ever laughed hard at a really silly joke? It probably made you feel better - even for just a few minutes.

If you've been through breast cancer, you know it's nothing to laugh at. But it's a fact that humor is an effective way to cope with life's adversities - from the big curveballs to small daily annoyances.

In this booklet, Loretta LaRoche, best selling author and international stress management and humor consultant, offers her own very funny and persuasive justification for laughing it up.

Loretta is proud to partner with AstraZeneca who recognizes the importance of humor in the health and healing process of its patients.
