That is the advice from a supposedly eminent professor of complimentary therapy - whatever that is - as to how to maintain a strong immune system against the Swine flu.

Not only is masturbation to be avoided, Dr. V. M. Palaniappan believes that homosexual activities are also to be abstained from.

The Malaysian professor states that such activities cause the human body to attain friction heath which ends up producing acid. And a hyper-acidic body causes a weaker immune system. And ergo, you are more likely to catch the Swine flu or Influenza A (H1N1).

Drawing on his 33 years of “research,” he states that heterosexual sex though is permissible for it does not lead to more acid in the body. Because the body is its own mind that can tell the difference be sex with a woman and masturbation.

One question: is heterosexual sex while doing acid permissible?
