Want Yet Another Reason to Have Sex?

A study shows that men who have three or more orgasms a week are 50
percent less likely to die from coronary heart disease.

These findings suggest that sex can be used to help prevent heart
attacks and strokes as one means of fulfilling physicians' recommendation
for sustained physical activity for at least 20 minutes, three times a
week. Conducted by a team of researchers from the University of Bristol
and Queen's University of Belfast, the researchers studied 2,500 men aged
45 to 59 for 10 years.

"The relationship found between frequency of sexual intercourse and
mortality is of considerable public interest," says study co-author Shah
Ebrahim, Ph.D., a University of Bristol professor of epidemiology and
aging, who presented the study results at the fourth World Stroke
Congress. "It may however be a confounding [relationship] due to other
aspects of a healthy lifestyle." Ebrahim cautions that further research
is necessary.
