Having sex twice a week can help keep you away from diseases

Modern urbanites generally live under great pressure and have insufficient sexual desire. There is even a situation of "sexless marriage" among many couples. This phenomenon has caused concern among relevant experts. Recently, at the initiative of the World Health Organization, several sexologists from different countries organized a series of thematic discussions and published articles pointing out that a healthy sex life can promote three aspects of health, including reproductive, physiological and psychological. "Having healthy sex once or twice a week can increase the amount of immunoglobulin in the human body by 30%, keeping people away from diseases."

Sexual life promotes reproductive health of men and women

Sexual organs, like other organs of the human body, will gradually degenerate if they are not used regularly. John, an expert from the British Drug Research Center, pointed out that the most direct benefit of sex to the human body is that it can promote the health of the male and female reproductive systems.

Statistics show that more than 75% of men over the age of 50 will have symptoms of prostate enlargement to varying degrees, and some may even develop prostate cancer. Regular sex promotes the secretion of testosterone, maintains the health of the prostate, and keeps men's sexual desire at a healthy level.

Sexual life is also beneficial to women's reproductive health. Studies have found that during sexual intercourse, the lubrication level of the female vagina increases, which helps maintain its acid-base balance and enhances the vagina's resistance to infectious diseases.

Sexual life promotes physical health

Experts suggest that sex is the oldest but most enjoyable exercise for human beings, and it has a huge impact on our physical health.

A British study shows that people who have two orgasms a week have half the risk of death than those who have less than one orgasm a month. In her book "The Magic of Sex and Love", sexologist Dr. Therese Cronhus points out that surveys have long shown that people with a happy sex life live longer than singles or divorced people. Because during sexual intercourse, the human body secretes youth hormone (a precursor to the synthesis of male and female hormones) to promote sexual excitement. It is this hormone that can help balance the immune system, improve the digestive system, promote bone growth, maintain normal tissue repair, and prevent the body from aging.

Sex expert Dr. Smith said that sex can maintain the health of the human cardiovascular system. Because during sex, a person's heart rate and blood pressure increase, blood circulation throughout the body speeds up, breathing becomes deeper, and the oxygen content in the blood increases. When fresh blood carrying a large amount of oxygen reaches cells, organs and tissues throughout the body, the human body is like being filtered by fresh air, and harmful substances that cause cardiovascular aging, fatigue and even disease will be removed. In addition, sex helps lower the body's cholesterol levels and promotes the conversion of bad cholesterol into benign cholesterol.

Almost all experts believe that under the influence of magical sex hormones, the human body's sense of pain will become numb. Sex is like a powerful natural painkiller, especially for eliminating symptoms such as arthritis and headaches. A study conducted by John showed that during orgasm, the female uterus contracts, which is a good exercise and relaxation for the uterus and can relieve menstrual pain.

Sexologists have also confirmed that sex can help people lose weight. A passionate kiss burns 12 calories, while 10 minutes of caressing can burn 50 calories. Even if you make love with the slowest movements, you can burn 150 calories in an hour.

Sex promotes mental health

In addition to reproductive and physical health, sex also has a huge impact on people's psychology.

Studies show that sex stimulates the production of adrenaline, which can improve the transparency of the skin, make the skin look bright and shiny, and make people look more beautiful and energetic.

Wilson, an expert in human sex research, pointed out that many people said that they slept more soundly and peacefully after sex. This is because the hormones released by the human body during sex can relax a person mentally for hours. In addition, muscles tense during sexual excitement and relax after sex, a process that can obviously relax the body and promote sleep.

American sexologist Dr. Bean O'Neal said that a sex life with both sex and love is more beneficial to physical and mental health, and couples who have sex without love are 2/3 to 4/5 more likely to suffer from serious diseases than the former. He suggested that caressing your sexual partner can increase the feeling of loving and being loved, so you might as well make caressing a regular part of your sex life.
