Early Morning Sex Is Best For Health

A Professor of Biochemistry at the University of Ilorin, Musa Toyin Yakubu said early morning sex is not only good for love life, but very beneficial to a couple’s health.

Yakubu., who made the observation in his inaugural lecture titled “Knocking Down the Barriers to Four O’clock Activities and Reproductive Inadequacies”, expressed concern over the rate of erectile dysfunction among men and advocated regular screening/check-ups by individuals.

His words:  “Four O’clock activity denotes early morning sex or early morning penile-vaginal intercourse. Although legitimate sex can be performed at any time of the day, the best time to have sexual intercourse is not in the dark night hours but early in the morning between 3am to 5am which typically is 4am, hence the term, Four O’Clock”.

He recalled several divorce cases reported in the newspapers, tracing most of them to sexual inadequacies. He said: “Having sex first thing in the morning and a minimum of three to four times a week is not only good for love life, but also beneficial health-wise.”

He listed the benefits of early morning sex to include: lowering blood pressure, reducing the risk of heart attack by releasing oestrogen in women and protecting against heart diseases and prostate cancer; boosting the immune system by stimulating the body’s first line of defence, immunoglobulin A, against cold and fever; regulating menstruation by influencing the levels of lutenizing hormones that control menstrual period in women and help sleep better; releasing the feel-good chemical, oxytocin, that enhances closeness with ones’ partner and makes people happier for a longer period of time and as a form of exercise, it reduces weight.
