Smoking cessation plus exercise can improve the male sexual function and also improve the urinary health of both males and females.
In a recently concluded study presented in the annual conference of the American Urological Association, researchers pointed to a vital link between smoking, exercise and urinary health.
The study involved two thousand individuals (males and females). The respondents were interviewed about their smoking habits and were also given questions regarding their urinary health. It was found that individuals who smoked were three times more likely to urinate frequently.
Also, these individuals are also 2.7 times more prone to experience sudden urges to go to the bathroom to urinate.
In a related study performed by US researchers from South Carolina, it was found that men who exercised more had experienced improved sexual function. The two studies, if taken together, point to an age-old medical adage: folks have to stop the smoking habit and begin a healthier habit – exercise!
