How Sex Can Improve Your Life

Here?s something that every hot blooded American male can agree upon: sex is great. Every aspect about it, including the messy parts, is wonderful. But here?s something you might not have expected: sex can help boost your immune system, add years to your life and also help you maintain a healthy weight. So the next time your woman isn?t in the mood, simply pull out this article and show her how she can shed those last five pounds by getting the bed posts rocking.

1.)??? Sex is a Huge Calorie Burner

Sex makes you healthy!

Sure, you realize that you sweat and huff and puff a lot while getting it on, but did you know that thirty minutes of sex can burn 85 calories or more? That may not sound like a lot, but it definitely adds up. Why not skip the treadmill today and try spending some sexy time with your lady? 42 half-hour sessions will burn 3,570 calories. Think about how much beer that is?

2.)??? Sex is a Stress Reliever

Is your boss giving you a hard time at work? Are you fighting with a friend? The little everyday problems in our life can add up to be a huge planet of stress sitting on our shoulders. Instead of paying $100 for a massage, why not have some sex? According to a Scottish report printed by the journal of Biological Psychology, sex lowers stress levels as well as blood pressure.

3.)??? Sex Helps Your Immune System

Do you want to avoid getting sick this winter? Then cozy up with your girl on a bear skin rug in front of the fireplace. If you have sex once or twice a week, you can increase the levels of an antibody called immunoglobulin A or IgA in your body. IgA protects us from colds and other infections. A study conducted at the Univeristy of Wilkes-Barre in Pennsylvania found that college students who partake in frequent intercourse suffer from colds far less than students who didn?t knock boots.

4.)??? You?ll Get a Better Night?s Sleep

There?s nothing quite like rolling over and falling asleep after some great sex. According to researchers, sex actually can help us sleep better. The oxytocin released during an orgasm helps to promote sleep.

5.)??? It Promotes Self Esteem

Do you want to transform every sidewalk you strut down into a catwalk? Well, now you can, you sexy beast. According to a study published in Archives of Sexual Behavior, people had sex to boost their self esteem. If you?re getting semi-regular attention from another person, you?ll begin to see why you?re such an awesome catch.

So all in all, sex is pretty great for us. Not just because it makes us feel good, but it can actually be good for us as well.
