ASMR: The Minnesota Starvation Experiment | Ear-to-ear Whispering Dark History & Science Facts
In 1944, researchers at the University of Minnesota undertook a controversial study to understand the physical and psychological effects of starvation. This study would definitely not be approved now, but it is fascinating. I have purposefully left out some of the more graphic descriptions so that you may learn and relax without feeling nauseated.
Thank you for watching and taking this time to relax.
Best regards,
Harry

What is ASMR?
Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response (ASMR) is a pleasant physical sensation that can be triggered by various stimuli. ASMR videos, therefore, focus on creating an environment conducive to helping you experience ASMR.
ASMR is a unique and scientifically established feeling that some people experience. It is often described as a tingling sensation on the skin of the scalp and back of the neck, and is usually accompanied by an increased sense of relaxation, sleepiness, or focus. ASMR videos are used in many ways, commonly as study aids, sleep aids, and comfort for anxiety.
