The Secret Weapon of Passion: How Do Shrimp and Laughter Affect Your Libido?

It turns out that if you listen to loud music, you will go deaf and ensure regular sex. The study was conducted by Sonos and Apple Music and verified by neuroscientists. According to the data, people who regularly listened to music had sex 67% more often. Neuroscientists say the reason is our brain's natural reaction to musical harmony: we produce dopamine, and we seek more pleasure, and oxytocin pushes us to find comfort in someone's arms.

McGill University scientists have explained that the brain's response to music is the same as its response to sex, drugs or delicious food. When scientists artificially blocked opioid receptors in the subjects' brains, the subjects admitted that even though they knew they were listening to their favorite song, it didn't feel right.

Yes, everyone thought it was just a clever marketing ploy, but it really works. When we try to imagine what research in this area looked like, a picture immediately appears in our mind's eye of people eating sushi from the naked bodies of experiment participants. Believe it or not, research tells us that “most commonly, seafood consumption is directly related to frequency of sexual intercourse.”

The study we're talking about involved 500 couples who noted when they ate seafood and had sex. And on those days when partners received a piece of octopus or a tender oyster, the chance that they would have sex after that increased by 39%. Scientists link this to "improved sperm quality, menstrual cycle and... embryo quality." The future.
