Sexual Activity And Life Expectancy

According to the “Dr. Oz Health Quiz” on Oprah.com, “If you have more than 200 orgasms a year, you can reduce your physiological age by six years.” Although there have been studies that show sexual activity can be correlated with a healthier and happier lifestyle, to state that having 200 orgasms a year will increase your life expectancy by half a decade can be seen as questionable. That’s a pretty broad statement that leaves out a lot of specifics that matter when you’re discussing life expectancy. Oz further claimed that “It’s really a spiritual event for folks when they’re with someone they love and they can consummate it with sexual activity…seems to offer some survival benefit”.
