We often hear it, read it everywhere, and we can prove it for ourselves: having sex is good for your health! We all agree on this assumption unanimously. Scientists say it and whoever does it confirms it.
Now, we're still getting news from science that can only satisfy us: if having sex every day is a panacea, everything to be in full shape from different perspectives.
In the first place, making love every day allows us to keep our body in shape because sex is a real physical activity.
A 30-minute relationship makes you lose the same calories as a long walk or an uphill walk, while 1 hour sex responds to about 1 hour in the gym and makes us lose 300 calories.
Whether it's true love or simple physical attraction, having sex is good for the heart. Physical activity during sex keeps the heart in training, allowing it to pump more blood and increase the pace of the heartbeat. So the cardiovascular system benefits enormously and the risk of heart disease is reduced.
If, as the Queens University of Belfast tells us, we consider that making love more than three times a week protects us from heart attacks and strokes, what more do we want?
Another part of the human body that benefits from constant and frequent sexual activity is the bones! Yes, sex affects our bone health through several hormones: testosterone in men and estrogen in women. Sexual activity stimulates these two hormones and seems to help prevent osteoporosis.
Furthermore, the pelvic floor movement during sex is beneficial for the spine which thus becomes more flexible, making the vertebral muscles more resilient and improving posture.
If that's not enough, making love often helps prevent prostate disease. Do you know why? Thanks to genital muscle contractions that occur during orgasm. So the goal should not only be sex, but also pleasure.
But that's not all: having lots of sex helps fight migraine. It makes us sleep better and makes us more energetic.
However, the real miracle has to do with the benefits that sex has on our psyche! Making love works like an antidepressant. Nadir Farid, founder of the Endocrine Clinic in London, tells us: if we are in a good mood after having sex, "it's thanks to oxytocin and serotonin endorphins" which are real natural antidepressants.
Finally, if you were looking for the elixir of long life but haven't found it yet, know that sex is the answer. The oxygen in our body has improved and the signs of aging have been removed.
Now we have no more excuses! Do you agree too?
