Its no wonder that people aren’t concerned until they are driven to the point of desperation. Well, the truth is evident and the recent studies that came out in a reputed medical journal has enough reasons for which one should try and be healthy. The journal is of the opinion that sex life for most men withers away at the age of 70. The obvious reasons are all directly proportional to healthy standards of life and health issues which crops up due to lack of hygiene, wrong diet and low fitness levels.

The journal borrows strongly from its mid 90’s survey that was solely the initiative of Chicago University and the American National Health Institute. The survey comprised of about 3,000 people both men and women who were mostly aged between 25 and 74. There was also one more survey conducted in the year 2000 which had similar number of people involved from both gender clan now aging in between 57 and 85. It was thus observed that about 40 percent of men were proved to be sexually active in comparison to sexually active women who formed only 17 percent. Although quite surprising, the two surveys have strongly concluded with the fact how most women gives up sex around the age of 61 when they feel they aren’t aroused anymore. Men on the other hand draws the line to sex at an age of 65.

The survey also formed the opinion that it was found on quite a number of occasions that men in great shape were much into sex than men who were physically unfit or are suffering from any shortcomings or disease.
