Few people feel their sexiest after a night of gluttonous eating. Are you really feeling it after eating a burger, fries and a shake? If you want to increase your sex drive, you should pay careful attention to the foods you eat. It might take a little planning, but these foods will definitely encourage you and your honey to want more sex.
Oysters
Oysters contain both zinc and dopamine, which can increase the libido. Additionally, many people simply find the act of eating an oyster erotic. Incorporate oysters into your meal when you want a night of romance. If you are pregnant, however, the Mayo Clinic recommends that you avoid raw oysters.
Eggs
Eggs serve a number of purposes when you’re trying to increase your sex drive. Vitamin B5 and vitamin B6 in the eggs reduce stress, which can help put you in the mood. After all, it’s difficult to focus on sex when you’re dealing with so many other things, right moms? Eggs also contain vitamin A, which can support the health of the skin in your vagina.
Celery
Celery contains androsterone, the same hormone that men release in their sweat that turns women on. Additionally, celery is high in fiber and low in calories. If you are eating celery, you’re probably not eating as many other snack foods that are high in calories and fat. This could cause you to lose weight, which will increase your libido, both physically and mentally.
Soy
Soy foods, such as tofu or edamame, help to bind estrogen, which can keep the vaginal area lubricated. For men, it can help promote prostate health.
Chocolate
Which is better: Men or chocolate? Hmmm… Chocolate contains phenylethylamine, which can stimulate the same hormones that make you feel like you are in love. It is also a food that you can use in sex play–drizzling chocolate over your partner’s naked body and licking it off.
Fruits
All fruits contain vitamins that can boost your libido. For example, bananas contain the bromelain enzyme, which can reduce impotence in men, and prunes may increase sexual pleasure due to their antioxidants. You may also find that certain types of fruits, such as mangoes, peaches or bananas, are erotically suggestive when you eat them, which can make you more interested in sex.
