What better way to begin the day than to make love with your partner after a refreshing night’s rest? Without a doubt, morning sex is a great energy tonic that helps you confront the day with renewed enthusiasm. But more than this, it has been proven to be beneficial not just for the soul, but for the body too.

According to a study at Queen’s University in Belfast, sex in the morning keeps your body’s organs healthy, stimulates the immune system, improves circulation, and lowers blood pressure. It also burns calories, reduces risk of diabetes, strengthens muscles and bones, and helps alleviate arthritis and headache. Among other discoveries, the study publicized in the British magazine “New Scientist” points out that making love in the morning can burn up to 3,000 calories per hour.

Couples who begin their days with love making tend to have a healthier appearance, as orgasms augment estrogen levels and other hormones that directly affect the tone and texture of both skin and hair. The study also shows that men show signs of increased testosterone after morning sex. Women were shown to have improved mood and decreased tendency toward depression.

On a more bio-chemical note, morning sex can stimulate creativity, improve mood and self-esteem, and promote self-awareness. The cardiovascular benefits also help with muscle movement and agility.
