10 foods for better sex
Sexologists, cardiologists and psychologists agree that what we eat has a big impact on our sex lives. Sex is healthy mainly because it relieves tension in the body, but it also serves as a good cardio workout. British researchers claim that men who have more than 20 "notches" per month are at increased risk of prostate cancer. Lack of sexual activity in turn increases the risk of erectile dysfunction. So it is important to estimate the correct ratio somewhere in between :). We offer ten foods that have a positive effect on better sex.
Here is a list of ten foods that have a positive effect on our sex life:
1. SPINACH
Spinach is a source of magnesium. Magnesium helps to dilate blood vessels, thus improving blood circulation in the genital area and creating more arousal.
2. UNCUTTED TEA
Tea contains the antioxidant Catechin, which has a positive effect on sexual strength, improves memory and concentration. Tea without added sugar contributes to the breakdown of fats.
3. GREEN MELON
Melon contains the substance L-citrulline, which is converted to the amino acid arginine. Arginine increases nitric oxide, which relaxes and dilates blood vessels, which has the same effect as Viagra in the treatment of erectile dysfunction.
4. EGGS
Eggs are an excellent source of vitamins B5 and B6, which help keep hormones in balance, reduce stress and are important for maintaining a healthy libido.
5. RED WINE
Antioxidants and alcohol in wine cause the formation of nitric oxide in the blood, which contributes to the relaxation of blood vessel walls and increases blood flow to the genitals. One maximum of two cups is enough for this positive effect. With more wine, sexual performance is reduced.
6. NUTS
Pumpkin and sunflower seeds, almonds, peanuts, walnuts contain the necessary monounsaturated fats from which our body produces healthy cholesterol. Our sex hormones need this good cholesterol to function properly.
7. PROTEIN
Proteins or essential amino acids are the building blocks of the human body. They are essential for the growth and maintenance of the cell structure of all organs, including the genital ones. In addition, proteins increase metabolism during digestion more than any other type of food, they also increase metabolism by helping to build muscle mass and stop the natural loss of muscle mass as a result of aging. Muscle is more metabolically active than fat, so the more muscles we have, the more calories we burn. Elaborate belly, thighs or ass definitely look sexy when we take off clothes :)
8. FISH
Salmon, mackerel, cod and tuna should not be missing from your diet. They contain omega-3 fatty acids DHA and EPA which increase dopamine levels in the brain, which triggers arousal.
Fish contain the amino acid L-arginine, which stimulates the release of growth hormone in other substances and is converted to nitric oxide in the body. It is worth repeating that nitric oxide is crucial for achieving an erection, and also improves women's sexual function by causing blood vessels to dilate due to better blood flow.
If you do not like fish or do not have the opportunity to include fish at least 1-2 times a week in your diet, you should reach for nutritional supplements containing omega-3 fatty acids, such as:
9. Oysters
They are a well-known aphrodisiac. Oysters contain more zinc than most other foods. Zinc increases libido by helping to produce testosterone - and higher testosterone levels are associated with increased desire causing better sex. Zinc is also essential for healthy sperm production and blood circulation. Casanova reportedly ate up to 50 raw oysters a day. Three oysters a day will provide us with a sufficient daily dose of zinc. Shrimp, red meat, pumpkin seeds, poultry and pork, eggs and dairy products are also good sources of zinc.
10. CHOCOLATE
Dark chocolate contains a compound called phenylethylamine, which releases the same endorphins that are released during sex and increases the feeling of attraction between two people.
But which chocolate is the "healthiest" chocolate? Be sure to prefer chocolate that contains at least 70% cocoa.
