"Rare sexual activity raises your risk of having a heart attack."
Common, frequent exercise of any kind protects you from heart problems, according to a study in the Journal of the American Medical Association, but sporadic exertion doesn't. People unaccustomed to physical activity have a higher risk of heart attack or death in the immediate hours following exertion (including sex). Overall, people who engage in episodic sexual activity have a 2.7 times higher heart attack risk (though the risk is very small, the correlation is there).
