Couple in bed: Research indicates that regular sex is good for health
DISCLOSURE
RIO - Having a healthy sex life is one of the secrets to maintain a more youthful appearance, says David Weeks, former head of old age psychology at the Royal Edinburgh Hospital, UK. According to him, sex cause a number of health benefits, which are even more important for those in older age, such as reducing the risk of premature death.
 
Speaking at the British Psychological Society on Friday, Weeks will show the results of your search. Analyzing volunteers aged between 40 and 50 years, who appeared to be younger said to have an active sex life: had sex three times a week.
 
Besides leaving people looking between five and seven years younger, sex triggers the release of endorphins, which causes a sensation of pleasure, acts as a natural analgesic, reduces anxiety and improves sleep. Sexual activity increases circulation, doing good for the heart and stimulates the production of hormones that leave the skin more elastic.
 
For the specialist, sexual satisfaction is among the biggest factors in the quality of life. Because of so many benefits, Weeks says that having sex is good and should be encouraged.
"Sexuality should not be seen as a prerogative of youth," said the newspaper britânco "Telegraph".
