Several studies have found, for instance, that older people who regularly go for brisk walks say they have more sex, more often, and are more satisfied with their sexuality. Researchers suspect that it is due to a combination of things. Fit people are less likely to become fatigued during sexual activity. They have better muscle tone and neural responses, which elevates their physical pleasure and heightens self-esteem and attraction. Besides exercise, here are a few other things to keep in mind.
Smoking increases the risk of hardening of the arteries, which decreases sexual response.
Also, drinking too much alcohol causes both mental and physical problems related to impotence. On the other hand, a drink or two can put one in the mood. And a cup of coffee, says one recent study, may keep sex perking. Finally, remember the brain is the most important sex organ. With a good attitude, most of us can enjoy sex throughout life.
