Feeling deprived? No roll in the hay recently? If so, don’t despair, tonight may be the night. However, the Journal of The American Medical Association reports that a session of steamy “amour” can be a dangerous pastime. But could it help The Toronto Maple Leafs to win The Stanley Cup?
Dr. Issa Dahabreh, researcher at Tufts Medical Center in Boston, studied 6,000 people in their 50s and 60s who were sexually inactive and had suffered heart problems.

But they also suffered a 2.7 fold increase in the risk of sudden heart attack.
