Sex and Enhanced Body Immunity – there is a piece of research which suggests that having sex 1-2 times a week may boost IGA ( a protein from the immune system that helps fight infection) The key is the production of natural opoid peptides – the happy little brain chemicals that are released during sex which also boost IGA production. Check out this research published in Psychological Reports. The authors are Carl Charnetski and Francis Brennan. As always, remember to practise safe sex and to have regular medical check-ups if you have diverse sex partners. Sex has myriad health benefits and we will publish them in future posts.
