Good
and regular marital sex can help you live a longer and happier life.
According to Dr Stella Eze, a gynaecologist with a Lagos based private
hospital, MAY Hospital, Ilasa. Good sex not only promotes longevity but
also keeps diseases such as the deadly breast cancer away. In an
interview with IMOH ESSIEN, Dr. Eze describes sex, particularly between
married couples as beautiful and specially designed by God and nature to
keep people in good shape all year round. Here are some of the benefits
of sex as listed by Dr. Eze, when you click read more….
Sex can cure headaches
Some of the health benefits of sex are its
ability to act as a pain reliever. The hormone oxytocin (a nine amino
acid peptide that is synthesized in hypothalamic neurons and transported
down axons of the posterior pituitary
for
secretion into blood) secretes within your body whenever you engage in
sexual activity. Because of this secretion, endorphins (hormone-like
chemicals that bear a close functional resemblance to morphine) are
released. When a person is aroused or excited, oxytocin levels not only
begin to increase, they are the reason that orgasms come about. Studies
have shown that a rise in oxytocin levels can relieve pain; everything
from headaches, cramps and overall body aches can be diminished with a
simple roll in the hay.
Sex reduces stress and aids sleep
A recent survey revealed that people who
have more sex reported that they felt more at ease, happier and learned
how to handle stress better. After an orgasm, an intense wave of calm
and relaxation overcomes humans (that’s why men usually fall asleep) and
it’s a time when people can truly liberate themselves and let go.
Plenty of people who enjoy a regular dose of sex convey that they sleep
much better during the night and feel alive and refreshed throughout the
day. So, one of the health benefits of sex is a better night’s sleep,
which allows you to handle day-to-day stress much more efficiently.
Sex increases sufficient blood flow
It goes without saying that when we get
aroused our blood starts to pump at a quicker rate and, thus, blood flow
to our brain increases. Both an increased heart rate and more blood
pumping through the brain result in better performance (in and out of
the bedroom). What this ultimately means is that the fresh supply of
blood pumping through your body provides the organs with a healthy dose
of oxygen and rids the body of old and wasteful products. So, another
health benefit of sex is a cleansed system. Treat your temple right with
the help of a little excitement.
Regular marital sex improves Fountain of youth
Although the orgasm is sometimes referred
to as the “little death,” having at least two orgasms a week can
increase your life span. Every time you reach orgasm, the hormone DHEA
(Dehydroepiandrosterone) increases in response to sexual excitement and
ejaculation. DHEA can boost your immune system, repair tissue, improve
cognition, keep skin healthy, and even work as an antidepressant.
Therefore, a health benefit of sex if you keep the orgasms coming is
potentially a longer life. It’s quite evident that there are many health
benefits of sex. It increases brain power, heart rate, it can help fend
off diseases and ailments, and it makes individuals feel good about
themselves. In today’s stressful society, it has become a little more
difficult to engage in intimate sexuality as often, but as long as you
incessantly make the effort, you’ll realize that it’s always worth it.
The health benefits of sex will make you feel wonderful within and
without and you will gradually notice that the more sex you have, the
more bounce you will have in each step. Happiness isn’t sex itself, but
sex does ultimately play a role in human happiness.
