‘AN ORGASM A DAY KEEPS THE DOCTOR AWAY’

THE ONLY THING THAT STIMULATES A WOMAN'S BRAIN MORE IS A SEIZURE...
So found researchers late last year when they caused a You Tube sensation by filming for the first time, the female brain in the throes of orgasm.
The video, taken with the help of an MRI scanner and Nan Wise, a 54-year-old PhD student who stimulated herself ‘for my dissertation,’ shows – lucky us – 80 pleasurable areas of the brain lighting up during the orgasm.
The evident fireworks start in the sensory cortex, the area related to the genitals but then quickly spread through the limbic system, involved in memory and emotion then finally, when orgasm arrives, causes the greatest spark in the hypothalamus which releases the powerful, bonding 'love' hormone, oxytocin.
