How to Boost Sex Drive with Foods
June 29, 2009
Are you unhappy with your sex life? Is the so-called ‘Big O’ still an elusive dream for you? Well, you’re not alone; sexual dysfunction and lack of sexual drive is one of the main problems plaguing couples today. There can be various reasons for a ‘not so healthy’ sex life, but even the food that you consume can play a vital role in improving sexual stimulation.
A ‘sex-friendly’ platter can help in proper pumping of blood in your body, thereby boosting your sexual prowess. Given below are some foods that facilitate the ‘Big O’!
1. Green Vegetables
Spinach and other green leafy vegetables are known to provide immense sexual benefits. Loaded with Vitamin E (which activates secretion of sex hormones in the body), manganese (which helps in the production of estrogen hormone in women), and zinc (which can cause libido and sperm production), these veggies can help increase sexual stimulation in both men and women.
2. Fruits
All fruits, especially the citrus varieties like black-currant, kiwi and strawberry play a vital role in increasing sexual pleasure. These fruits are rich in vitamin C, which helps keep the sexual organs fine-tuned.
3. Sea-food
Seafood such as fish and oysters can spice up your sex life the way no other food does! Fish contains Omega 3 fatty acids and Vitamin B which aids in fertility. Oysters are extremely rich in zinc, which helps in testosterone hormone production in men.
4. Nuts
Walnuts, almonds, groundnuts and pistachios are known to provide energy, which is integral for stamina-buildup during sexual activities.
5. Seeds
It is believed that seeds help increase the levels of sexual hormones secreted in the body. Seeds like soybeans, flaxseeds, chickpeas, pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds contain Omega 3 fatty acids, which is vital in maintaining the body’s hormone levels and sex drive.
6. Spices
Presence of the right kind of spices in your diet can do wonders to your sex life. Ginger, Chili pepper and red chilies aid in blood circulation, thus improving hormone levels.
7. Garlic
Garlic, if regularly consumed in food can augment sex drive.
8. Chocolate
The relationship between sex and chocolate cannot be denied. Chocolates, especially the darker varieties are known to cause the body’s senses to get ecstatic, stimulate sexual appetite, and reduce inhibitions. Besides, chocolates release serotonin, which acts as mood booster and reduces stress.
9. Olive oil
Consumption of olive oil can increase the production of testosterone hormone, which stimulates desire and sexual pleasure.
10. Bananas
Bananas are also wonderful as sex food. A rich source of vitamin B, bananas provide adequate energy boost needed for endurance during sex.
