Morning sex is good for the brain

Sex, on its own, comes with a few benefits but did you know that having sex first thing in the morning is capable of improving your mental abilities?

According to sex experts, just several minutes of morning sex can keep you looking younger and improve your mood for the rest of the day.

Men accumulate testosterone as they as they sleep and from the time they wake up, they have a three hour window when they are brimming with testosterone.

That early morning erection is not called ‘morning wood’ or ‘morning glory’ for nothing. Whatever it is called, having an erection on waking up is as good a reason as any to initiate a little morning sex.

Not only is it a great way to kick start your day because it’ll leave you feeling lively and energised, a great love-making session will also alert your brain nerves making you mentally alert after you have spent up to eight hours asleep.

Another great perk is that morning sex is a really good way to connect with your partner before the day begins.

Studies also back this up, with a recent one saying, 'adults who start their day with sex are more likely to be happier and healthier than those who start their day with a cup of coffee and breakfast.'

So dump the coffee and hump your boo.
