New study indicates that SEX CAN KILL
Gotta love these overpaid academics pulling research grant topics out of their ass to siphon off more government research handouts. Today's topic: SEX CAN KILL
no shit, sherlock. Anything that requires a jolt in physical activity plus long periods of low level activity and obesity COULD result in health issues including DEATH. Don't need a research grant for that.

Quote:
The team analyzed data from 14 studies looking at the link between exercise, sex and the risk of heart attacks or sudden cardiac death -- a lethal heart rhythm that causes the heart to stop circulating blood.
They found people are 3.5 times more likely to get a heart attack or have sudden cardiac death when they are exercising compared to when they are not.
And they are 2.7 times more likely to get a heart attack when they are having sex or immediately afterward compared with when they are not. (These findings do not apply to sudden cardiac death because there were no studies looking at the link between sex and cardiac death.)
