Unexpected benefits of sex for seniors
Good sex has no distinction between people or national boundaries. Anyone can enjoy it. Especially for the elderly, enjoying sex can also help improve memory, and its effect is comparable to brain games.
A research team at the University of Rostock in Germany found that older people who remained sexually active well into their 70s were less likely to suffer from "muddleheadedness" and memory loss. In the new study, Professor Peter Klopp and Dr. Britta Müller surveyed 170 elderly people aged 63 to 75 in 2011. It was found that there is a direct correlation between the sexual satisfaction of the elderly and their youthful mentality and sharp memory. Professor Klopp said that human sex also follows the law of "use it or lose it". If you insist on sex, many people can continue their sex life until they are 80 years old.
Professor Klopp said that this study shows that sex in old age is not only possible, but also can prolong life, especially preventing memory decline. Even if older couples feel sexually exhausted, it's still important for them to stay close. Intimate gestures such as holding hands and loving each other's eyes can have positive effects.
