Listening to music helps to dilate veins and arteries

I read somewhere that listening to music will help to prevent stroke. This is because music helps to dilate the veins and arteries thereby aiding in smoother flow of blood throughout your body.

From experience, I find that listening to soothing music helps to calm us down and help us overcome anxiety. Hence we should listen to music more often for our own good. A note warning though. Don't listen to ear-splitting music that deafens your ears and feel you feel tensed up.
