In the viral video, which has been viewed more than 2,800 times so far, Nina said: “Did you know that insufficient sex is considered a cause of illness in traditional Chinese medicine?”
The small business owner shared more surprising information about how often you should sleep with your partner in her caption.
She added: ‘Although traditional Chinese medicine often emphasizes the potential long-term effects of excessive sexual activity, many do not realize that insufficient sex is also considered a cause of disease in Chinese medicine.
‘As the late TCM (traditional Chinese medicine) physician Giovanni Maciocia noted, ‘Insufficient sex is often a cause of illness similar to emotional stress, especially in Western women.’
‘Ancient Chinese physicians believed that women were more likely to experience greater sexual frustration because they were subject to different societal norms and may not feel as allowed to express themselves sexually compared to men. ‘
Nina then talked about how often you should have an orgasm based on your age.
She said that if you were in your 20s you should have sex every four days, while in your 30s you should aim for every eight days.
As your age increases, the amount of time between orgasms doubles.
She said if you were in your 20s you should have sex every four days, while in your 30s you should aim for every eight days
So if you’re in your 40s, you should have sex every 16 days, while those over 50 should engage in sexual activity every 21 days.
Finally, if you’re in your 60s, you should be having sex every 30 days.
‘Chinese medicine links a strong libido to abundant ministerial fire, with an orgasm releasing beneficial Yang energy and improving Qi flow. This activity affects the mind and especially the heart and pericardium,” she added.
Nina then shared the herbal remedies that “promote reproductive health, relieve genital discomfort, boost libido and improve sexual performance.”
“Fu Yin Tai: A complete herbal bath to relieve genital itching and dry fluid,” she explained.
