5 Ailments That Can Be Cured By Se*x

According to The Daily Mail, the hypothalamus region of the brain is active during a cluster headache, and the same area shows activity during orgasm. So, what else can se*x cure? Take a look at the list below and start treating your ailments. 1. Stress Need to relax? Look no further than the bedroom. In a Scottish study, men and women were placed in stressful situations and told to keep records of their sexual activity. People who had recorded having intercourse responded better to stress. 2. Sleeping Problems Trouble hitting the hay? Forget counting sheep. Oxytocin, the endorphin released during orgasms, also promotes sleep.

3. High Blood Pressure Researchers discovered that sexually active people have lower blood pressure when faced with stressful tasks. 4. Bad Mood Not only does semen contain mood-elevating chemicals, such as endorphins and oxytocin, the Institute for Advanced Study of Human Sexuality found that sexually active people take fewer sick leaves and enjoy life more. Sex has also been shown to boost self-esteem. 5. Dull Skin No need to apply extra bronzer. Turns out, the "sex glow" is real after all. Thanks to increased blood circulation, oxygenation of the blood, and a rush of endorphins post-orgasm, the effects of sex can do temporary wonders for your complexion.
