Dr. Peter Gorden, Dental Advisor at the British Dental Association, explains. &#8220;After eating, your mouth is full of sugar solution and acidic saliva, which cause plaque build up. Kissing is nature&#8217;s own cleaning process,&#8221; he adds. &#8220;It stimulates saliva flow and brings plaque levels down to normal.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>&#8230;it relieves tension. A passionate kiss is a great relaxation technique, says stress consultant, Michelle Kay Mcnabb. &#8220;When your mouth is in a kissing position, you&#8217;re almost smiling and, as our emotions and body language are so closely linked, it&#8217;s almost impossible to smile and feel tense at the same time,&#8221; she explains.  &#8220;Also, your breathing becomes deeper and your eyes close when you kiss &#8211; that&#8217;s what you do when you relax. It&#8217;s a perfect way to shut out the world.&#8221; <\/li>\n<li>&#8230;it helps you lose weight. &#8220;A long kiss makes the metabolism burn up sugar faster than usual,&#8221; says Claire Potter. &#8220;The calories burned depend on the intensity, but you can rely on 10 calories for every 10 minutes.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>&#8230;it slows the ageing process. &#8220;Kissing helps to tone your cheek and jaw muscles, so they&#8217;re less likely to sag,&#8221; says Cosmo&#8217;s Fitness Consultant, Claire Potter.<\/li>\n<li>&#8230;it increases fitness levels. Your heart is pumping, your pulse is racing&#8230;&#8221;  If kissing is exciting, you release adrenaline into the bloodstream and your heart pumps more blood around your body,&#8221; says Dr. Susan Hotchkies. &#8220;It&#8217;s a great cardiovascular workout.&#8221; <\/li>\n<li>&#8230;it is a good indication of what&#8217;s to come. Kissing a new man gives you the perfect opportunity to check out his pheromones &#8211; the chemical messengers that signal sexual attraction.&#8221; The first kiss is always a good way to work out if there&#8217;s any chemistry between you,&#8221; says Paul Brown, a sexual and marital therapist. &#8220;In humans, it&#8217;s thought that smells plays a vital part in subconscious attraction, and if your pheromones aren&#8217;t in tune&#8217;, you&#8217;re unlikely to hit off in other areas.&#8221; <\/li>\n<p><li>And finally, &#8230;it boosts self-esteem. There&#8217;s nothing better than a passionate kiss for a major dose of feel &#8211; good factor. &#8220;In theory, when you&#8217;re kissing, you&#8217;re happy. And when you&#8217;re happy, you feel good about yourself,&#8221; says psychotherapist<br \/>\nPaul Zeal. <\/li>\n<\/p>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230;it helps prevent tooth decay.
