Sex helps 'keep you young' in old age
Published: 7 Feb 12 15:14 CET
Staying sexually active in old age keeps your brain ticking, according to a recent study in which 70 percent of those Germans over 75 said they were happy with their antics between the sheets.

Behind the report are scientists at the university hospital who are hoping to end to the stigma surrounding pensioner sex and promote the message that "sex in old age is not only possible, but helps keep you young."
Professor of medical psychology Peter Kropp and medical sociologist Dr Britta Müller interviewed 170 people between the ages of 63 and 75 in 2011. They say their findings make a strong case for the positive role sex can play in the lives of older people.
“The results clearly show that staying active in later life – and this includes having sex – helps keep you cognitively active,” said Kropp.
He explained that an average 20-year-old thinks they will stop having sex aged 50. When they reach 40 this is pushed back to 70, and at 50 the limit goes up further to 80.
