Chocolate covered strawberries and Marvin Gaye aren’t the only way to get you and your partner in the mood. Well at least one of them isn’t… Aside from the fact that what you put into your body truly reflects what is shown on the outside, food can also be the determining factor in how enhanced your sex drive and sexual satisfaction is!
HEART HEALTH LEADS TO SEX HEALTH. These 7 foods can lead to a happier and healthier sex life!
- Strawberries
They contain great antioxidants and enhance circulation to the arteries in the heart that are essential for sexual pleasure in men and women. When buying the strawberries make sure to buy them organic! Conventional strawberries have among the highest levels of estrogen-mimicking pesticides, so choose wisely.
Blood flow is important for your sex organs, so choosing good fats, such as the omega-3 fatty acids found in almonds, is a good idea
- Avocado
An example of good fats! Avocados are rich in vitamin E which is loaded with antioxidants, as well as vitamin B6 and potassium, which can promote better blood flow and prevent heart disease.
- Almonds
They are packed with selenium which can help with infertility issues in women, and the vitamin E aids the heart. Also almonds are abundant in omega-3 fatty acids, making them a good fat that can enhance blood flow to all your good parts.
- Sweet potatoes
The potassium in sweet potatoes promotes blood circulation which can help combat erectile dysfunction.
- Watermelon
In 2008, Texas A&M research suggested that the lycopene, citrulline, and beta-carotene found in watermelon may help relax blood vessels, and provide a natural enhancement for
revving up your sex drive.
- Citrus
Any citrus fruit is rich antioxidants, vitamin C, and folic acid, all of which are essential for men’s reproductive health.
- Arugula
Arugula contains trace minerals and antioxidants that block absorption of environmental contaminants thought to negatively impact your libido.
On the contrary, MEAT, FATTY FOODS, PROCESSED FOODS, AND DAIRY BY-PRODUCTS CAN LESSEN SEX DRIVE and sexual pleasure.
Meat is bad for sex because it can develop a bad body odor (driving all your partners away you smelly person) and leads to heart disease as well as high blood pressure. And when your foods are processed, it removes the nutrients needed for enhancing your hanky panky pleasures. The synthetic hormones that are pumped into your dairy products can potentially mess with your own hormones, which alters the way your body responds to arousal and pleasure.
The foods that you put into your body have a huge impact on your happiness and your health. Put a little more sizzle in your sex life and try eating cleaner!
