Sex can actually make you smarter. Results of a study recently done at the University of Amsterdam show that those who are sexually aroused performed better in tests involving critical thinking. The bio logical bene fits of sexual activity include stress reduction and the release of happiness-inducing hor mones. The researchers found that the release offered by sexual gratification can also promote brain growth. This study on humans corroborates the findings from similar study completed at Princeton Uni versity. In those experiments, scientists discovered accelerated brain cell growth in sexually active lab rats when compared to their virgin counterparts.
