We all want to have exciting (porn star) sex. We want long periods of high intensity sex; leaving our partner in a world of ecstasy, right? The problem is, most of aren’t porn stars and are often tired after a long day’s work or simply don’t have what It takes to WOW our partner.
Guess what?
What you eat can affect your sex drive (and the sex drive of your partner) and help your overall performance. Here’s a few sex food that will keep you rocking in the bedroom (and anywhere else).
Nuts
The old saying, “you are what you eat” couldn’t be more true in sex. Fellas, that’s what usually after isn’t it? Raw nuts, especially Almonds and Walnuts, are high in fatty acid. This plays a key factor in increasing your sex hormone production. Aside from that, they help reduce cholesterol, which helps blood flow….aka you’ll be rock hard in no time and ready for a great night. If you’re not into walnuts or almonds, try pumpkin seeds. They work too.
Chocolate
Fellas, did you buy her a gift of roses and a box of chocolates? Good, you’re probably doing yourselves both a favor. The drug ecstasy works by increasing serotonin levels in the body, giving you a euphoric feeling. Think of chocolate as the “legal” version. Chocolate contains serotonin which excites the nerves. It also contains phenylethylamine, which increases sensitivity of pleasure centers in the human body (consider it a helping hand). You may not know (or care) what PEA, dopamine, serotonin, or any of those long words mean, but trust us, Chocolate works!
Avocados
Fresh avocados (not 3 pounds of guacamole) have major sex benefits. Avocados are loaded with vitamin E, which help the body produce sex hormones such as Testosterone and Estrogen. Folic acid in the avocados also turns protein into energy, giving you the edge when it comes to sex. Use avocados to not only get you in the mood, but to help give you the stamina you need to impress your partner. (Side note: chew some gum first; your partner will thank us)
Oysters
They might not look good, but they do the trick. Oysters are notorious for their high level of zinc, which increases testosterone production for men. Don’t worry ladies, zinc helps you too. Zinc is the surest way to ensure lubrication; you’ll be a waterfall in no time. Much like chocolate, oysters also have dopamine which increases the sex drive in both men and women. For those happy couples working on producing a little bun in the oven, studies have shown oysters to produce semen production in men, improving the chances of impregnation.
Fruits and Vegetables
Vegans Rejoice! Fruits and vegetables are important for sex in a number of reasons. First they are low in fat and high in nutrient contents. This helps prevent blocked arteries which can cause erectile dysfunction in men. Many fruits such as bananas (go ahead, insert your banana joke here), are high in potassium which helps during orgasm by improving the strength of your muscles. Ladies, this will help you go from “ooo” to “OOOOOOOO” in a heartbeat. Meanwhile, pomegranates and other fruits are high in antioxidants which keep the blood flowing smoothly. The Result? Sensitive genital areas!
Try looking on the internet for recipes for these sex super foods and finding erotic ways to feed them to your partner. Not only will you be doing your partner a favor during this foreplay snack, you’ll be priming them for a night they won’t forget. Can we recommend the chocolate-strawberry-pumpkin seed-avocado-oyster smoothie? Yea, maybe not.
