Sex And Anti Aging

By: David Cowley

The most used marketing strategy has always been Sex Sells. We all have heard this slogan and we all believe that it is true, but have you ever stopped and thought about it? Why does sex sell? If you have a better job, new car, fresher breath, whiter teeth, shiner hair, or fancy cloths, will your chances of having sex be improved? Perhaps; but why will this type of advertising also work on people that already have a sexual partner?

It is because sex is one of the most powerful motivator of human action known to science. For anyone that has studied Maslow's Hierarchy Of Needs know that sex is in the number one slot along with breathing and eating.

It is also the most beneficial of the Anti-Aging regiments you can perform. That is a rather bold statement but you can prove it to yourself with just some simple observations on your own health and well-being.

When I was in my 30s I used to make this statement to express my general health. I need to recharge my batteries. This was actually a Euphemism for I need to get some. This is a G rated article so stick with me. I knew that the day after having gotten some, I would have more energy, look better, feel better and generally have a positive outlook on life. We all have seen someone we know that suddenly from one day to the next had a complete change in personality or outlook on life and you just knew that he got lucky last night.

As I look objectively back on my life I can see the differences in the quality of my life had a direct correlation to whether or not I was in a relationship at the time. Between relationships I was always fighting a weight problem. I was under a great deal of stress, which I blamed on work of course. Everyday my energy level seem to get a little lower and I was easer to anger and I just did not feel that I was operating at 100 percent.

Sex will have a positive effect on every organ in your body including your brain and for the people with sexual partners it can be the cheapest and most beneficial anti aging regiment you can get into. There are a lot of chemicals and hormones involved in the lovemaking act and I am not going into the details here. There are plenty of article written that subject and what I am trying to accomplish here is to get you to notice how it affect you. Its like if you take a 500 mg tablet of Vitamin B at night before you go to bed, if you are paying attention to your body, you will notice an increase in your energy level the next morning.

The same thing holds true for sex. Do you notice a slight improvement in your energy level, stress level, outlook on life the next day? Of course you do. The trick is to take good honest look at how it affects your body and how long it lasts. If you are having sex only once a month and the effects only last a couple of days then you will obviously not get all of the possible benefits from it.

Most couples do not perform at option levels after they have been together for a period of time. There is a whole host of reasons why this happens and in most cases it is not important. What is important is it will require a sustained effort to increase the occurrences of the lovemaking act until option levels are reached. Now you can't just go and jump on your partner anytime you like. You will have to discuss it with them and determine the level you would both like to reach and at what rate you would like proceed.

If you are a reasonably health individual a low energy level can kill your sex drive faster than almost anything else. Taking vitamins and supplements to improve the blood supply or the ability of the blood cells to carry oxygen will help to improve the energy levels.

Vitamin B boost energy levels and help fight fatigue. All of the different Vitamin Bs taken together as B-Complex work together as a team to perform vital biological processes, such as energy production and efficient metabolic function.

Vitamin E supplies Oxygen to the heart and the other muscles in the body. Accelerates wound healing and aids in the functioning of the immune system.

Flavonoids are the brightly colored pigments found in most fruits and vegetables. When consumed, they have antioxidant properties and have been associated with improved lung junction.

Hawthorn has an high concentration of anti-oxidants and can help remove toxins in the brain and can strengthens the blood vessels which helps get oxygen and nutrients transported to the brain.

Iron is an essential component of hemoglobin, the oxygen carrying substance in red blood cells. Iron is vital for the production of blood. It enhances the immune system. Iron also aids in growth and repair of both bone and tissue by helping the body produce collagen.

L-Carnitine is essential for the body's ability to turn food into energy. L-Carnation increases energy at the cell level by increased fat burning, increases the body's ability to remove toxic disease-causing compounds and helps cells live longer.

If you just feel that you need vitamins, supplements or herbs to fight the aging process then find a good health care professional prior to starting any type of home treatment.

Always consult your doctor before using this information.

What Women Really Want In Sex

By: Cucan Pemo

One of the biggest breakthroughs in the study of human sexuality in the 1960s was the acknowledgment of what are called erogenous zones – areas on the body that have heightened sensitivity, and which are connected directly to sexual response. By knowing what they are, where they are, and how to touch a woman there in just the right way, you’ll increase both her pleasure and your own. The five major erogenous zones are:

1. Her lips. Take the tip of your finger and softly stroke your own lip. Feels nice, doesn’t it? There are a lot of nerve endings in our lips, and the best way to bring pleasure to a woman’s mouth is by kissing her. Be sexy and playful, alternate between kissing her upper lip and lower lip, and gently caressing her tongue with yours.

A nice long bout of kissing will get both of you warmed up and in the mood – if you’ve been with your partner for some time, rediscover the pleasure of simply kissing each other, long and slow – many couples stop “making out” after they’ve been together for awhile, and sex becomes perfunctory and predictable. So why not get back to basics and spend some time just kissing each other the way you used to?

2. Her neck. This is the secret hotspot of female desire that’s been known by successful Lotharios since time began. Just keep your desire to bite in check – neck kisses should be light and sensuous. Make sure your lips aren’t dry, but they shouldn’t be sloppy wet, either. Kiss different areas of her neck softly, paying attention to what part of the neck makes her toes curl.

The area just below the ear is usually highly sensitized – brush your lips lightly there while breathing out through your nose, and the combined sensation will give her goosebumps. Many second dates have been guaranteed by a sexy neck kiss at the end of an evening! When making love, start with light kisses and then graduate to gentle nibbles as you progress, saving the more fervent biting for when her passion is reaching its peak.

3. Her breasts. If you’re like most men, getting your hands on her breasts is so thrilling you may be inclined to hold back on the attention you give them because you don’t want her to think you’re an animal. But what most women won’t tell you (at least not at the very beginning of a relationship) is that they love it when a man spends plenty of time on their breasts. The entire breast is a network of nerve endings, and here’s something you may not know – they have the same number of nerve endings no matter how big they are.

So smaller breasts are more sensitive, and require a lighter touch, while large breasts can be fondled more forcefully (in fact, many women with large breasts actually prefer more rigorous handling, biting and sucking for maximum pleasure). The best way to drive a woman mad with pleasure is to start by kissing and caressing the sides and undersides of her breast, slowly moving inward. Ignore her hints that you go straight for the nipple and continue to tease her, taking several minutes to get to your goal.

With either the tip of your tongue or a dampened finger, gently touch her nipple, finally taking it in your mouth and sucking on it when she’s starting to twitch with impatience. Discover her preference for light or gentle touch in the area by watching her reactions, and by asking her what she prefers,

4. The inside of her thighs. This is an extremely sensitive area, and some women are ticklish here, so if she doesn’t like it, back off. But most women, especially if they’re already aroused, love the feeling of a warn hand stroking its way up their inner thigh. It’s also a great way to build anticipation – keeping caressing her thigh, slowly moving higher and higher, but take your time. You both know where your hand is headed, but the suspense in a big part of the fun.

5. The clitoris. The most obvious erogenous zone is also one of the most seriously misunderstood, particularly if a man has received most of his sexual “how-to” tips from watching pornographic videos. For starters, women vary wildly in what sort of clitoral stimulation they enjoy.

Some women want a lot of direct stimulation, rubbing it vigorously like it’ a tiny penis, while other women are so sensitive that it can barely be touched at all. If you’ve been successful with one woman and think you know all about how to pleasure a woman in this area, think again – your next lover may be completely different.

The best way to find out what she likes?

Ask her.

The best time to ask is when you’re in bed together and she’s becoming very aroused. Her defenses will be down and she’ll be more likely to discuss her preferences without embarrassment. You can also ask her to take your hand and show you how you should proceed – it’s educational, and it’s fun for you, too!
