‘Sexercise’ will keep you healthy and young
According to British health experts if you want to get fit forget the gym, jogging round the park and doing sit ups, a workout between the sheets is a more effective and enjoyable way of keeping healthy.
The British National Health Service is recommending that for those too busy to fit regular exercise into their schedule, sex will not only lower the risk of heart attacks but will help people live longer.
According to the NHS during “sexercise” endorphins released at orgasm stimulate immune system cells, which also helps target illnesses like cancer, as well as wrinkles.
While sexual health experts agree there is evidence that sex has benefits for mental wellbeing, they say claims of a reduced risk of heart disease and cancer could not be scientifically proven.
The NHS however claims the theory is backed by science and clinical evidence.
The advice, entitled “Get more than zeds in bed”, is one of several sexual health-related articles to be found on the NHS Direct website and claims sex with a little energy and imagination provides a workout worthy of an athlete.
The article also says orgasms even prevent wrinkles and frown lines from deepening.
The NHS says that sex uses every muscle group, gets the heart and lungs working hard, and burns about 300 calories an hour.
The advice suggests “regular romps this winter” could lead to a better body and a younger look, make hair shine and skin smooth.
The article also claims goes that orgasms release “painkillers” into the bloodstream, which help keep mild illnesses such as colds and aches and pains away.
Healthy bones and muscles, and a feeling of wellbeing are they say a guaranteed result of the production of extra oestrogen and testosterone hormones which sex engenders.
Sexperts, sorry I mean experts on sex say that one of the greatest benefits you can get from sexercise is a release of endorphins in the brain that act as a natural drug induced high, or a heightened sense of well being. During the act of having sex your body is releasing endorphins making you feel stimulated all over and when you have an orgasm you get a sudden hormonal rush which floods your entire system. After the orgasm you feel not only satisfied but relaxed and at ease. Sexercise might just be one of the most productive of all forms of exercise, very few other forms of exercise provide such a tremendous overall feeling of satisfaction.
It is believed sexercise has a number of health related benefits like lowering the risk of heart attack although I personally thought it might have increased that risk for some elderly guys if they had maybe just a little too much fun too often, but apparently not. The more sexercise the better if you want to live longer the sexperts say. I don’t think many people would argue with their doctor if they advised them to engage in more sexercise and less walking. Having an orgasm is supposed to increase the body’s immune system and minimize the risk of cancer. I’m not quite sure how these sexperts get all their information but I’m not one to complain.
It has also been suggested that engaging in regular sexercise can help keep the skin looking smooth and wrinkle free and the hair looking silky and vibrant. It all sounds good and I doubt many people if any would complain when it was time for a sexercise session unlike they may complain before a workout in the gym or running around the block a few times on a hot day.
Performing sexercise is healthy for both men and women. Sexercise encourages testosterone production in men and oestrogen production in women which helps keep the muscles and bones healthy and strong. So although you may have once only considered having sex for fun or making babies, now you might want to consider incorporating sexercise into your daily or weekly workout schedule. Hmmm sounds like some food for thought. specially with for me 🙂 Guess why ???
