The Advantage Of Active Sex Life
More sex - more health -longer life.
Why sex is good for you and me? Is sex good for everyone?
Is sex good for your health?
Let's talk about frequency before we answer the above question. Every
survey of sexual behavior has shown as the years goes by, the number of weekly
sexual intercourse declines. By the way we are talking about the sex life of
married couples. An average married couple older than 35 years, makes love twice
a week. Late 40s and 50s couples have intercourse once a week. Over 60 this
number is even lower. Why does this happen?
It might be caused by several factors. With age some of our hunger for sex
decreases and probably our physical ability decreases too. It is hard to be
horny if you are in pain. For some other people sex is like anything else.
Something like your favourite food. For example your favourite food is steak. If
you always eat steak, after a while, (1 or 2 years) you will have more than
enough steak for a life time. If you have sex always with the same partner
the same way, after 1 or 2 years you going to need more time to turn yourself
and your partner on. The spark starts to go out. And here comes swinging.
Swinging provides a way to spice things up. Active swinger couples,
younger than 50 years of age are having sex at least 3 - 4 times a week with
their regular partner, plus some extra playing with someone else than the
regular partner. How can they do it?
The number one reason is that practice makes it perfect, and they practice a
lot. The second reason they know sex is good for all adult age of humans.
The Queens University in Belfast tracked the mortality of about 1,000
middle-aged men and women over the course of a decade. They found that, having
sex even a few times a week has an casual relationship with the next few things.
Reduced risk of heart disease: By having sex three or more times
a week, men reduced their risk of heart attack or stroke by half.
Weight loss, overall fitness: Sex is "hardcore" exercise. A
vigorous "sexercise" burns some 200 calories--about the same as running 15
minutes on a treadmill or playing a spirited game of squash. The pulse rate, in
a person aroused, rises from about 70 beats per minute to 150, the same as that
of an athlete putting forth maximum effort. Muscular contractions during
intercourse work the pelvis, thighs, buttocks, arms, neck and thorax. Sex also
boosts production of testosterone, which leads to stronger bones and muscles.
Less-frequent colds and flu: Individuals who have sex once or twice a
week show 30% higher levels of an antibody called immunoglobulin A, which is
known to boost the immune system.
Better teeth: Seminal plasma contains zinc, calcium and other
minerals shown to retard tooth decay. A good blow job might deliver more mineral
to her than the best toothpaste combined with latest tartar control mouthwash.
Also before and after love making, people usually brush their teeth, which, by
itself, would help promote better oral hygiene.
Better bladder control: Do you know anything about
Kegel exercises? If you having sex you
exercising the same muscle when you do Kegel exercises. It will help you in your
old age to control your flow of urine.
Healthier prostate: Men when having orgasm flush their prostate
gland. Flushing your prostate gland 5 times a week will reduce the chance to get
prostate cancer by 40%. It's hard to make love 5 times a week with the same
person for a lifetime. If you or your wife don't like multiply partners, then
masturbation is a way to go. However there is no magic number that guarantees
the result. It's best just to do what feels good and doesn't cause fatigue
afterwards.

Is there such a thing as too much sex?
The short answer: If you are a female no. Lot of sex will firm your tummy and
buttocks and improve your posture. You might develop a lubrication problem. In
this case use something like KY jelly to avoid inter vaginal scrape.
For males there is a point that we can call enough. As with everything the
penis has the own limit. Penile tissues, if given too roistering or prolonged a
pummeling, can sustain damage, especially with out enough lubrication. Your body
tries to control this with your staying power. When it is enough, you will not
be hard. And here comes the magic stuff such as Viagra or Levitra. If you are a
healthy man you should not use them. It will give you more staying power than is
actually good for you. The drugs make it possible to have second and third
orgasms without having to wait. There's a reason why the penis, in its natural
state, undergoes a period of softness.
That's when it takes a breather. The blood within it is replenished with
oxygen. During an erection, very little blood flows to the penis. No blood - no
oxygen. To absorb oxygen, the tissue must become relaxed. If you do not allow
the penis to rest, then the muscle tissue does not get enough oxygen. The muscle
becomes so engorged, it's painful. Pressure inside starts to increase. Cells
start dying. More pressure and less blood flow. Eventually the muscle dies. And
if you ever get there, from this point you can use your penis to urinate only.
If you are 85 years old, go ahead and use the drugs, but if you are younger,
think before you try.
And here at the end please remember, safe sex or no sex!
