10 Reasons Why You Should Have Sex Everyday

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Sex is one of the most sensitive topics especially for the conservative Filipinos that have not been influenced by Western and European liberalization. Unlike other fast-progressing countries where people can immediately "sleep together" even after a first date, or just by mutual understanding, the people of the Philippines still is a bit shy when talking about their private sex life.

If you thought that the only benefit of sex was, well, pleasure, here's some interesting information for you. 

The intimate act of lovemaking transcends beyond boundaries of just pure ecstasy. It was scientifically proven that making love is good for adults - but making love regularly is even better. Not only does it help you sleep well, relieve stress and burn calories, there are also several other reasons why you need to have sex more often. 

1. It increases self-confidence - Sex and intimacy can boost your self-esteem and happiness. It’s not only a prescription for a healthy life, but a happy one. You would forever trade it with anything and everything else just to have it - with an attractive opposite sex. Getting laid regularly only means you're just too awesomely cool and great looking to pick up girls.

2. Promotes longevity - When one has an orgasm, a hormone called dehydroepiandrosterone is released. This improves immunity, repairs tissue and keeps the skin healthy. Men, who have at least two orgasms a week, live longer than men who have sex just once every few weeks. 

3. Improves overall fitness - If you find going to the gym mundane or working out at home a task, here's another way to help you lose the flab and keep in shape. Regular sex will do wonders for your waistline. Half an hour of lovemaking burns more than 80 calories. 


 

4. Lessens the pain - Before you reach for an aspirin, try for an orgasm. Orgasm was found to be able to block pain. Stimulation without orgasm can also do the trick. If you're using a headache as an excuse to not make love, stop doing that. Have sex instead, because, when you're about to have an orgasm, the level of the hormone oxytocin increases by five times. This endorphin actually reduces aches and pains. 

5. Improves cardiovascular health - Sex is a really great form of exercise. The act uses about five calories per minute, four more calories than watching TV. It gives you a one-two punch: It bumps up your heart rate and uses various muscles. A recent study says that men who have sex more than twice a week, have a lesser risk of getting a heart attack, than men who had sex less than once a month. 

6. Increases blood circulation - A good sex life is good for your heart. Because your heart rate increases when you have sex, fresh blood is supplied to your organs and cells. While used blood is removed, the body also expels toxins and other materials that cause you to feel tired. 

7. Improvement in sleep -You may nod off more quickly after sex, and for good reason. After orgasm, the hormone prolactin is released, which is responsible for the feelings of relaxation and sleepiness. The sleep that you get just after you've made love will be much more relaxed. Getting a good night's sleep will make you feel alert and overall healthy. 

8. Reduces stress - Stressed out with work or family problems? Don't let it affect your performance in the bedroom. Not only will having sex improve your mood, but a study has also proven that folks, who indulge in regular bedroom activities can handle stress better and are happier people. The touching and hugging can release your body's natural “feel-good hormone.” Sexual arousal releases a brain chemical that revs up your brain’s pleasure and reward system.

9. Increases levels of Oestrogen and Testosterone in men - Having sex more often may help. During one study, men who had sex at least twice a week were half as likely to die of heart disease as men who had sex rarely. The hormone testosterone is what makes them more passionate in the sack. Not only will it make you feel way better in bed, but it also improves your muscles and bones, keeps your heart healthy and keeps a check on your cholesterol. In women, on the other hand, the hormone oestrogen protects them against heart disease and also determines a woman's body scent.

10. Increases immunity - Sexually active people rarely get sick. Regular lovemaking increases the level of the immune-boosting antibody immunoglobulin A (IgA), which in turn makes your body stronger against illnesses like the common cold and fever. People who have sex have higher levels of what defends your body against germs, viruses, and other intruders. Going for the gusto may help ward off prostate cancer. Men who ejaculated frequently were less likely to get prostate cancer.
