Keeping the flame ignited in a long-term relationship isn’t about tantra or buying her new lingerie (though those may not hurt either).
Instead, the secret to lasting sexual desire is something called responsiveness, researchers say.
Great! So…what the heck is that?
That’s when you show your partner that you value them—that you understand and appreciate their needs and support their goals, says study author Gurit Birnbaum, Ph.D., a psychology professor at the Interdisciplinary Center Herzliya in Israel.

Why You Have Heinous Bad Breath After Eating Dairy—and How to Fix It
Milk breath. Cheese mouth. The sour stench of worst-date nightmares. What the heck is this foul demon odor and how does one exorcise it?
First, you have to understand your enemy.
You probably don’t think about your mouth this way, but it’s technically part of your digestive tract. Chewing is only the first step of digestion.
“Imagine millions of bacteria feasting on particles of food and tissue in our mouth, some giving off smelly waste,” says David Krol, M.D., former chair of the American Academy of Pediatrics Section on Oral Health.

The 5 Worst Things to Do After Your Workout
While going to the gym can become routine after a certain amount of time, there are definitely ways you can mess up your fitness efforts if you engage in bad habits immediately afterwards.
From my experience of working with athletes over the years as an exercise physiologist, here are the top 5 worst things you could do post-workout.
POST-WORKOUT MISTAKE #1: YOU STAY IN YOUR GYM CLOTHES
Get out of damp gear immediately.
Even if you didn’t sweat that much, worn or soggy clothing is an environment bacteria love to cling to, and it can also give you a deep chill that is hard to recover from.

I Went To a Hands-On Female Orgasm Class. Here’s What Happened.
How wild is your sex life? Take this survey to find out!
Orgasmic meditation (OM) is a mindfulness practice originating in Buddhist tradition, in which a man strokes the upper left quadrant of a woman’s clitoris for 13 minutes while she’s lying down in a “nest” of pillows.
Devotees swear it’s improved everything from their intuition to their fine motor skills—and gush about how close and connected they feel to their partners. So when I got the chance to test it out at OneTaste orgasmic meditation studio in San Francisco, well, I had to see if it was worth the hype.

You Know What, Blue Wine Can Go Straight To Hell
A Spanish company—we won’t say winemaker, because that would be too generous—is producing an electric blue wine called Gïk, according to a new report from BBC Travel.
Made with a mixture of white and red grapes “whose color and flavor we improve through food tech,” Gïk’s producers say their wine is “sweeter and easier to drink” than traditional vino.
Nope. There’s so much wrong with this that it’s hard to know where to begin.
“F—king hilarious,” says Keith Wallace, founder of the Wine School of Philadelphia. “This is basically a wine for 15-year-olds who are used to drinking soda.”

Nearly Half Of All Heart Attacks Occur Without You Even Knowing It
A heart attack might not hurt as much as you think—in fact, you might not even know you had one, according to research from the Wake Forest School of Medicine.
In the study, researchers added up the number of clinically-diagnosed heart attacks and “silent” heart attacks—events that were undiagnosed at the time but were confirmed by electrocardiogram (EKG) afterwards—that occurred in more than 9,000 people during a 9-year follow up.
They discovered that 45 percent of all the heart attacks were silent.
