San Diego, Calif., heard the term elderly, the looming figure of afeeble old and have lots of rest so as not sickly. Yet according tothe study, healthy elderly are even more active and fulfilled, especially in sexual life.
This trend applies to all sex, but according to research experts at the University of California, in elderly women are moreprominent. The more satisfied with sex life in old age, the elderlyare becoming more immune to the effects of aging.
Immune to the effects of aging is characterized by low number of elderly that contracted the degenerative diseases due to decreased organ function. For example rheumatism, heart disease, high blood pressure, gout, diabetes and highcholesterol.
While the elderly are already ill, the quality of life as measured on the basis of sexual satisfaction seem lower. Ill make the elderlyhard to enjoy sex life, and vice versa when it is not satisfiedsexually then the condition of his health declined.
"Level of sexual activity varies depending on ability and age ofthe elderly are concerned, however, the relationship betweensexual satisfaction and quality of life observed very positive,"said Prof. Wesley Thompson, who led the study as quoted by theTelegraph, Sunday (08/28/2011).
Together with his team, Prof. Thompson proves it by making observations of 1235 elderly women aged between 60-89 years.Of these, 70 percent of age 60-69, 57 percent of age 70-79 years and 31 percent of age 80-89 years are still sexually activein the last 6 months.
