Most people who worry that having sex might stop their heart can probably just relax and enjoy themselves, a new study suggests. Researchers at Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute in LA examined data on 4,557 adults who died from a sudden cardiac arrest, which is essentially a short circuit in the heart’s electrical system. They found just 34 cases linked to sexual activity. Put another way, less than 1 percent of the deaths from sudden cardiac arrest were related to sex. “Based on this data, we now know that the likelihood of sex being a trigger for sudden cardiac arrest is extremely low,” said senior study author Dr. Sumeet Chugh.
