Make love to stay healthy

People who have frequent sex are generally healthier. 

Researchers have long known that not only is sex fun (when done with the right person, of course), but that people who have frequent sex tend to live longer and have healthier hearts and lower rates of certain cancers.

These studies also show that men with an active sex life have healthier sperm, and sexually active women have fewer menopause symptoms.

In a British study, people who had intercourse twice a week or more were less likely to have heart attacks and other fatal coronary events.

Those who had sex less than once a month had twice the rates of fatal coronary events, compared with those with the highest frequency of intercourse.

In a study published in the journal Biological Psychology, people who had sex more often tended to have lower diastolic blood pressure, or the bottom number in a blood pressure reading.

A French study found that women who have intercourse not at all or infrequently had three times the risk of breast cancer, compared with women who had intercourse more often.

A Minnesota study found that men who’d had intercourse more than 3,000 times in their lives had half the prostate cancer risk of those who had not.

While it’s not clear why this would be true, studies have found that men who had more intercourse tended to have better prostate function and eliminated more waste products in their semen.

A study of healthy German adults revealed that men and women who had sex more frequently tended to be slimmer than folks who didn’t have as much sex.

Sex burns 50 to 60 calories per encounter, so sex three times a week for a month would burn about 700 calories or the equivalent of jogging about seven miles.

A group of men being treated for erectile problems saw greater increases in testosterone when, along with the treatments, they had frequent sex.

Specifically, men who had sex at least eight times per month had greater increases than those who had sex less than eight times per month.

In three studies, men who had frequent intercourse had a higher volume of semen, a higher sperm count and a higher percentage of healthier sperm, compared with men who tended to participate in other sexual activities.

    those who had daily sex with each of their four wives, plus bonuses in the form of outside flings with a few other partners, will they live to a hundred? nope. they will probably drop much earlier due to disease.

    Frequent sex keeps most ppl happy unless the person hates it or one partner is a sadistic maschoist and the other isnt...if both partners ENJOY each other company and each others sexual preference then yea it is good for you
