This might explain the "French Paradox" of an extremely "unhealthy" diet but very low cardio vascular disease rates: They retire early and stay in bed all day with their favoite mistress/lover.

I'd go on strike for that, I guess.

It is now said that "love", (read red-hot sex here) does indeed come close to being a cure-all for many age-related problems.

The more repressed, the shorter the life-span.

Health care reform should obviously include regularly scheduled orgies for one and all.
