A Different Prescription
Britain's National Health Service (NHS) has a new official remedy for the populous. Forget about jogging. Have sex. (I guess we knew it anyway).
The advice for a better fitness routine is a workout between the sheets. The official British health authority says that regular amounts of sexual activity can: "Lower the risk of heart attacks and ...(help)... people live longer".
According to the prescription: "Endorphins released during orgasm stimulate immune system cells which also helps target illnesses like cancer as well as wrinkles".
A spokesman for the NHS (via Internet) says: This "Isn't just a bit of fun". The analysis is "Backed by science and clinical evidence".
The diagnosis is that: "Sex with a little energy and imagination provides a workout worthy of an athlete". Also: "Sex uses every muscle group ...(and)... gets the heart and lungs working hard and burns about 300 calories an hour".
All right, now that I have given up trundling around the block, shall we go to bed?
