The British Medical Journal reports that in a study of 1,000 men, those with the highest frequency of orgasm had a mortality rate half that of the average man. Scottish neuropsychologist Dr. David Weeks confirmed in another study that sex slows the aging process and increases longevity. Hawaiian lecturer Dr. Paul Pearsall has shown that regular sex boosts the immune system.
Still more studies report that men who have intercourse at least three times a week decrease their risk of suffering a heart attack or stroke by half. Ejaculating more than five times a week cuts risk of prostate cancer by a third.
Psychologist Gordon Gallup reports that women who absorb prostaglandin, a hormone specific to semen, have lower rates of depression than those who don’t. Of course, if the said semen leaves the woman in question with an STD or unwanted pregnancy, its anti-depressant qualities don’t do jack.
If it somehow finds its way into your mouth, the zinc and calcium in semen will prevent tooth decay. Fun fact: The average ejaculate contains five protein-packed calories.
Your immune system also benefits from a regular romp. One Pennsylvania study showed a 30 percent increase in antibodies for those who had sex once a week.
But wait, there’s more. For just three easy payments of orgasm, sex will also make you smarter. According to German researcher Werner Habermehl, subjects who had regular sex registered more brain activity than those who did not. He explains that increased amounts of adrenaline and cortisol, which accompany sex, stimulate gray matter.
