So you need another reason to have sex? How about this: a new report is claiming that a healthy sex life could make you look younger… up to 7 years younger.
Dr. David Weeks spoke at the British Psychological Society today and informed the group that because of the special endorphins (also called the “feel good chemicals”) released during sex, circulation is improved which is good for the heart and causes human growth hormone to be released. This makes the skin more elastic. Stress and anxiety levels are also reduced and a sense of overall satisfaction is usually achieved.
This is especially helpful for the elderly Weeks said.
My message is that love making is good.
The stereotype of an elderly person is that when they get their pension and bus pass, they stop having sex, and that’s not true.
“Sexual satisfaction is a major contributor to quality of life, ranking at least as high as spiritual or religious commitment and other morale factors, so more positive attitudes towards mature sex should be vigorously promoted.
“Sexuality is definitely not the prerogative of younger people and nor should it be.”
