Sex Is The Safest Tranquilliser

If you thought that making love was just a gesture of love or for pleasure, think again. Sex has much more to it than most of us think and know. Research has shown that an active sex life helps us live longer. Organs and systems in the body perform better and remain healthy because sex increases the supply of oxygen to the cells and stimulates the activity of various organs and systems within the body. People with complaints of cholesterol, take heart! You have a good medicine, which you would not refuse. Where sex balances out the good cholesterol to bad cholesterol ratio, it also simultaneously reduces the overall cholesterol count in the body. So there you go, you can now control your bad cholesterol with pleasure. By having sex three or more times a week, men reduce their risk of heart attack or stroke by half.

Did you know that sex is a form of physical exercise? Sex three times a week burns lots of calories, and if maintained throughout the year, is equivalent to jogging 75 miles. To make it simpler, a vigorous bout burns around 200 calories, about the same as running 15 minutes on a treadmill. Regular sex is regular exercise and has similar benefits, including improved cholesterol levels and increased circulation. Apart from giving you a good workout, sex once or twice a week improves the immune system as well.

Don’t consider it as a guilty pleasure

The health benefits of sex while growing up many of us were told that sex was something we should stay away from — or at least not talk about! Sensuality is an innate part of our being, but girls are often taught to tamp it down. Ladies, we are told, guard their reputations carefully; by the time we are mature enough to handle a sexual relationship, our bodies may have incorporated the “good girl” image. That’s unfortunate, because what we weren’t told is that sexual pleasure comes with many emotional and physical health benefits.
