Awkward

7 Reasons why Sex is good for you. I've read this article in Yahoo! I know it's kinda awkward. But study says that the number each day of the week you have sex, results to your good health, and can help improve our mind and body. No malice or any bad thoughts given. Just an article for a heads up. I know that I will only have sex with my wife and when we are married. But, it's good to know what are its benefits at such an early time. So that we, people, can prepare ourselves and have the knowledge, when making love to our life-long partners.

Here's what the article says:

1 Day a Week for Your Weight 
Sex prompts your brain to release oxytocin, which can improve your sleep, says Helen Fisher, Ph.D., biological anthropologist at Rutgers University in New Brunswick, New Jersey. And more zzz's could mean fewer pounds. Sleep regulates hunger-related hormones ghrelin and leptin, helping you say no to seconds. 

2 Days a Week for Your Sniffles 
Peeps who do it two or three times weekly have 30 percent more immunoglobulin A proteins, which protect against illness, in their system than others do, a study from Wilkes University notes. The 
researchers believe the relaxing, mood-lifting effects of sex may play a role in keeping you healthy. 

3 Days a Week for Your Heart 
It's more fun to hop on a guy than an elliptical, but both aid your ticker. Sex revs heart rate and blood flow. People who do it three times a week could see their risk for a fatal heart attack cut in half, a study from the University of Bristol shows. 

4 Days a Week for Your Skin 
Couples who do it routinely look four to seven years younger (per study subjects asked to guess couples' ages) than those who have less sex, scientists at the Royal Edinburgh Hospital in Scotland report. Could be because sex produces human growth hormone, which may lower body fat and smooth complexion, the study authors say. 

5 Days a Week for Your Outlook 
Frequent sex is linked with increased optimism, energy, focus and creativity. So even when you're not rolling around in the sack, you could feel more positive and have a happier relationship. Plus, all that focus and motivation could help you perform better at work, Fisher says. 

6 Days a Week for Your Brain 
To be a smarty pants, you gotta drop your pants ... as many times as possible. High-five if you get to six, but even one booty sesh is good for your smarts. When you have sex, it increases blood flow to the brain, releasing hormones that may enhance your intellectual capacity, according to Barb DePree, M.D., an ob/gyn in Holland, Michigan. And get this: It might even create new brain cells! 

7 Days a Week for Your Mood 
We're impressed if you're doing it every day. Wow. Even if you're not, though, getting down can help you de-stress. "Regular sex can reduce anxiety," possibly because of the endorphins it produces, says Jonathan R. Cole, M.D., an internist in Westlake Village, California.
