Love makes you stupid, sex smart - that's why
Is a relationship made out of love alone not enough for you? We believe in it, because apparently sex is fundamental in a couple (a question of chemistry) and if it fails it could be a symptom of crisis.
Do you need other reasons to do so? From the latest research it seems that sex also stimulates the mind, improving and increasing cognitive activities.
And the benefits of sex don't end there:
1. The effects of love on the brain
According to researchers Wlodarski and Dunbar, feelings of love would stimulate areas of the brain associated with reward and protection, but at the same time could deactivate areas of the brain associated with other cognitive functions. Some skills would be affected, such as memory and, above all, attention. The fact remains that passionate love, the one that steals heart and mind, true love in short, can improve some neural functions, such as the identification of emotional states and creative thinking.

2. The effects of sex on the brain
While love would make us chin focused, sex would make us smarter. Dr. Hayley Wright recently investigated existing studies on the subject, and found that older people (age 50 and up) who were sexually active people scored higher on cognitive tests than those who were not.
Apparently, the secretion of dopamine, closely linked to sexual activity, would improve memory as well as other cognitive skills. So better keep fit, because sex would be a great activity to keep mind and body in shape! Know, however, that when the couples analyzed were asked to increase the frequency of their sexual encounters, they showed a decrease in happiness, as well as in the enjoyment of sex ... so sex is really good when we don't force our hand and we are free. to choose it!

If sex is so good for our cognitive activities, we better get it on! Some advice?
