Good for the Heart

A good sex life can lower your risk of heart attack. In one study, men who had sex two to three times a week were 50% less likely to develop heart disease than those who had sex infrequently. Aside from raising your heart rate, sex promotes healthy balance of estrogen and testosterone levels. Take note; when either one of these hormones is low, you can start to get serious health problems such as heart disease and osteoporosis.
