1. It keeps colds way. Having sex once or twice a week has been linked with higher levels of an antibody called immunoglobulin A or IgA, which can protect you from getting colds and other protections.
2. It eases stress. Sex lowers blood pressure and reduces overall stress, according to Scottish research.
3. It keeps you slim. Depending on how acrobatic you are, 30 minutes of sex burns 55 calories or more. It may not sound like much, but it adds up.
4. It helps your heart. While we’ve all seen movies where an old man has a heart attack while getting his groove on in bed, the truth is having sex twice or more a week can actually reduce the risk of a fatal heart attack.
5. It helps you sleep. The oxytocin released during orgasm also promotes sleep, according to research.
6. It helps you fit below the belt. Doing a few pelvic-floor muscle exercises known as Kegels during sex offers a couple of benefits: You will enjoy more pleasure, and you’ll also strengthen the muscles and minimize the risk of incontinence later in life.
7. It helps you live longer. Many experts such as Dr. Oz, report that having sex extends your life by years.
