fDo you want to improve your sex life? Then, get rid of your unhealthy habits.
A study has indicated that overeating, being sedentary, smoking, and drinking booze can dampen your sex drive and improves your odds of not having any sex.
A study found that vices contributed to sexual dysfunction in men, and unhealthy lifestyles are more common among both men and women who aren't sexually active.
Danish researchers surveyed more than 5,500 adult men and women, and found that unhealthy habits increase the chance of not having sex by up to 78 per cent in men and 91 per cent in women.
Among the men in the survey who had sexual partners, those with a large waistline had a 71 per cent increase in the risk of sexual dysfunction. Hard drug users had an 800 per cent increase in risk. For women, those who smoked hashish had three times the risk of losing the ability to climax during sex.
"Hopefully our findings can be used in future counseling of patients with unhealthy lifestyles," theIndependent quoted study researcher Morten Frisch, of Statens Serum Institute in Denmark, as saying in a statement.
"Knowing about possible negative consequences of an unhealthy lifestyle to one's sexual health may help people quit smoking, consume less alcohol, exercise more and lose weight," added Frisch.
The study has been published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine.
