Scientists have suggested that they have finally found a recipe for long life: total abstinence from sex !
The University of Sheffield researchers rest their findings on the belief that nuns — who are believed to stay away from sex completely — tend to live longer.
Refraining from having sex will help you live longer than all your peers, the study found .
The scientists discovered that mealworm beetles live for longer if they avoid mating ; while those who tried to produce offspring each day passed away at a much younger age.
Mating was found to release a hormone in the insects needed to produce sperm in a male or eggs in a female . But this was also found to have a negative effect on their immune system , the researchers found .
This makes them vulnerable to potentially deadly infections , as their body ’ s natural ability to fight rogue bacteria is compromised.
Though the mechanism is not necessarily the same in humans , study author, Dr . Michael Siva- Jothey , believes the principle can be applied .
He said : “ Nuns tend to have a longer lifespan than women with children; and most people know of someone with a maiden ( unmarried ) aunt who seems to live forever .
“ The question is , why ? The beetles which mate die sooner than the beetles which don’ t mate. ”
Humans also have weaker immune systems during sex , which explains how STIs can be easily spread, he added .
Nuns, priests , vicars and monks are known to live longer than others — but not for their religious protection .
It is believed that their low rates of high blood pressure — which increases the risk of heart disease and stroke — are responsible.
