More sex means more years Apparently, having sex frequently can boost brain power in older adults, according to a study in 2017. “For adults aged 62–74, better sexual quality was related to better cognitive functioning,” she wrote in the Journal of Sex Research, along with her co-author, Hui Lui from the Center on Aging and the Life Course and Department of Sociology at Purdue University in Indiana.
“Men who had sex once a week or more had lower odds of experiencing cognitive impairment five years later than men who had no sex in the last year,” elaborated the study.The research was based on a survey and cognitive assessment of 1,683 American respondents. “Sex” was defined as a mutually voluntary activity with another person that involves sexual contact, whether or not intercourse or orgasm occurs while “frequently” was defined as one or more sexual encounters per week.
The social element here means that you and your partner will communicate more when you’re intimate, both wanting to make sure each other is comfortable and enjoying it. Patterned social interactions with long-standing partners can also help with brain health.
