Dr. Mehmet Oz, Oprah Winfrey's favorite physician, gave a fun health quiz on a recent "Oprah" show to help people determine their health IQ.
Dr. Oz asked 16 questions, including:
• What shape should your poop be?
• When have you had enough water?
• What is the most dangerous fat on your body?
• Impotence could be a sign of what?
• What causes brain freeze?
But the question that generated the most interest was: How often should you have sex? The multiple choice options: once a week, twice a week, 10 times a month, 200 times a year.
The answer: 200 times a year.
"If you have more than 200 orgasms a year, you can reduce your physiologic age by six years," Dr. Oz says, basing this number on a study from researchers at Duke University who surveyed people about the amount and quality of sex they had. "They looked at what happened to folks that are having a lot of intercourse over time, and the fact is, it correlated." Frequent sex helps prove that your body is functioning as it is supposed to. "But in addition, having sex with someone that you care for deeply is one of the ways we achieve that Zen experience that we all crave as human beings," says Dr. Oz. "It's really a spiritual event for folks when they're with someone they love and they can consummate it with sexual activity...seems to offer some survival benefit."
