First, here are some facts. Over 95% of men and between 56 and 89%
of women ********** at some point in our lives. Masturbation is often
our first introduction to ****** pleasure and self-soothing.
Here are some of the benefits of masturbation, as established by
research studies.
Masturbation Lowers the Risk of Prostate Cancer
1.Masturbation protects against Prostate Cancer. Men who **********
more than 5 times a week in their 20's are 33% less likely to develop the
most aggressive form of prostate cancer later in life. A 2003 study by
Graham Giles at the Cancer Council of Victoria in Melbourne Australia
found that the ejaculate helps to "flush" or rid the male body of
carcinogens.
2.Masturbation Tones The *****.
Masturbation appears to tone the ***** by exercising the pubococcygeal
(PC) muscle, commonly known as the "pelvic floor". The PC extends
from the mons pubis to the anus. You use your PC to hold your water,
preventing urination. Dr. Arnold Kegel a Californian obstetrician
developed the "Kegel exercises in 1946 to prevent incontinence. Since
then, Kegel exercises have been used to tighten the ****** after
childbirth and to heighten ****** pleasure in both men and women.
3.Masturbation Relieves Stress. Masturbation releases serotonin, the
"feel good" hormone which causes us to relax and feel better.
4.Masturbation Induces Restful Sleep. For many centuries, native
cultures in Hawaii and elsewhere have used masturbation to induce
sleep. Many urbanites throughout history have also discovered this
natural sedative for inducing sound sleep.
Why do you want to go to sleep after ejaculating from sex or
masturbation? The answer lies in a powerful combination of chemical
compounds released when you ejaculate from orgasm. According to
New York University, when you ejaculate, your brain releases chemicals,
including norepinephrine, serotonin, oxytocin, vasopressin, nitric oxide
(NO), and the hormone prolactin. Prolactin is the hormone that makes
you feel ****** satisfaction and delays when you can have another
orgasm. Researchers believe that prolactin, and the chemicals oxytocin
and vasopressin cause you to feel sleepy after sex.
Because four times more prolactin is released after you have intercourse
than when you **********, you will in fact feel even sleepier after sex
with a partner than after you **********.
Because masturbation is a practice that occurs in all cultures and
throughout history, it can be thought of as one of the four keys to
physical and emotional health: sleep, diet, exercise and sex. Each of the
4 must be in balance for you to achieve physical and emotional health.
Too little or too much of any of the Big 4 sets up up for a health crisis.
Research has shown that too little sleep leads to weight gain, too little
good food and proper exercise leads to obesity which leads to heart
disease, diabetes and erectile dysunction, too little ****** release leads to
frustration and the build of seminal fluids which can raise the risk of
prostate cancer.
And therein lies the key. Balance. If masturbation becomes a means to
escape from the harder job of developing a whole relationship with
another human being, the imbalance leads to isolation, which is a
pre-condition to many forms of mental illness and distress.
So, enjoy, but keep your pursuit of The Solitary Pleasure in balance with
your pursuit of better quality relationships, better quality diet (including
foods which by the way improve erectile performance) and better
quality sleep.[/QUOTE]
