Almonds
and Nuts
Almonds contain important fatty acids that help the brain process information and work better. They are a prime source of essential fatty acids, and are vital in the production of men's hormones. Additionally, the smell of almonds is purported to arouse passion in females.
Avocados
Not only are they a sensual
delight, but they also contain important fatty acids that help the brain and
heart. In fact, did you know the Aztecs called the avocado tree ahuacatl
or "testicle tree." They contain high levels of folic acid, which
helps metabolize proteins, thus giving you more energy. They also contain
vitamin B6 (a nutrient that increases male hormone production) and potassium
(which helps regulate a woman's thyroid gland), two elements that help increase
libido in both men and women.
Celery
Celery may not be the first
food that comes to mind when you're thinking sex, but it can be a great source
for sexual stimulation. Celery contains androsterone, an odorless hormone
released through male perspiration that supposedly turns women on.
Garlic
Garlic contains allicin, a
chemical that increases blood flow to the sexual organs. As such, it's a highly
effective herb to help increase libido.
Figs
Figs are high in amino acids, which are believed to increase libido. They can also improve sexual stamina. Furthermore, the shape of a
fresh fig and the sweet, juicy taste are very sensual and sure to put sex on
your mind.
Oysters
Oysters, the classic
aphrodisiac, have been associated with sex since the days of Casanova. They are
high in zinc, which raises sperm and testosterone production. Oysters also
contain dopamine, a hormone known to increase libido.
Eggs
Eggs are high in vitamins
B6 and B5. These help balance hormone levels and fight stress, two things that
are crucial to a healthy libido. In fact, some people will eat raw chicken eggs
just prior to sex to increase libido and maximize energy levels.
Bananas
Bananas contain the
bromelain enzyme, which is believed to increase libido and reverse impotence in
men. Additionally, they are good sources of potassium and B vitamins like
riboflavin, which increase the body's overall energy levels.
of
course...Chocolate!
Chocolate contains the
alkaloid theobromine which is very similar to caffeine and phenylethylamine, a
chemical believed to produce the feeling of "being in love." In
addition, dark chocolate has tons of anti-oxidants, which are great for the
body in general, as they help maintain a healthy immune system
