American physiologists have drawn a parallel between sexual activity and the risk of senile dementia. According to scientists, frequent and regular sex stimulates brain cells that prolong youth.

The researchers conducted a large-scale experiment with a hundred elderly volunteers who, in special questionnaires, described their sex life over the past year..

After that, tests were carried out, including a task for mental and verbal reaction, memory and vocabulary assessment..

It turned out that people with the highest type of sexual activity in their age respond faster to all the questions posed and answer them more clearly..

Researchers explain this relationship by the activation of brain cells during intimacy as a result of a surge of adrenaline and an increase in the amount of endorphin.. As you know, the aging process is provoked by the drying of cells, which, when dehydrated, lose their ability to recover.. The processes that occur during sex allow cells to maintain their ability to reproduce.
