HEALTH TIPS # 9:: Sexercise Therapy!!!   

I have collected these from the net & posting ‘not only for fun’ but with the hope of providing some information!!!!!!Sex, in a loving and intimate relationship, has innumerable health benefits. Research has shown that running 75 miles or having sex three times a week for one year, both the activities will burn approximately 7,500 calories. Many of us however, feel that anything that feels so good can't possibly be 'good' for us. But wait! Pause and think again! A staggering number of scientific studies have shown that sex and specially, sex leading to orgasm is good for you. The obvious physical benefits— the heavy breathing and the increased heart rate that occur during sexual arousal and orgasm— help to keep the tissues and organs healthier by circulating oxygen. And by the way, as an exercise it will burn off more calories per minute than playing tennis. During sex, the average person maintains the heart rate above 70% of the maximum. That really makes sex a wonderful workout and the longer it lasts, the better cardiovascular workout you get!As a matter of fact, having sex three-four times a week will cut the risk of heart attack or stress in half! Although women also benefit in this manner too, in the case of men the results are well documented and clear. Not only that but in men sex encourages the flow of testosterone, which strengthens bones and muscles and helps transport DHEA, a hormone believed to be important in the functioning of the body's immune system. In women, the act triggers the release of oxytoxin. This promotes the feelings of affection and the nurturing instinct. Looks like for men, it's a win-win situation!
