Most of us hate
veggies, probably because your parents forced them down your throat at an early
age and told you it was good for you. Well, they were not wrong, they are! They
are good for your sex life! According to research, this list of veggies would
spice up your sex life.
Garlic
Thanks to the flavour of garlic it does terrible things to your
breath and that is not attractive considering the aim of this article.
According toVirgin “ While garlic may be counter-intuitive to being a food
that helps your libido because of the lingering taste in your mouth, body, and
skin, it’s actually one of the best. This
is because of its ability to improve blood flow to organs, due to its compound
allicin. Extra blood flow means more sensitivity, a double win for health and
sexual benefits.” Remember to take of care of your mouth before
your lover comes calling.
Pepper
Peppers are packed with a key ingredient called capsaicin,
which is proven to increase heart rate, metabolism, blood flow, and sweat. They
also trigger the release of feel-good endorphins that act like natural
painkillers. This is a good way to heat things up with your lover, although
excess of peppers is life threatening, the right amount would be good for your
sex life.
Carrot
As a root vegetable, carrot would ‘ground’
you. Because roots grow downward, life force energy (known as chi in
Chinese) is downward and grounding. Roots nourish the lower half of the body,
including the reproductive organs, also increases sexual vitality. Rich in B
vitamins and minerals, roots also provide strength and endurance.
Spinach
Spinach is rich in“Foods rich infolate,a
water-soluble B vitamin that helps the body form red blood cells.”Food rich
in folate are perfect for improved circulation, and if you don’t eat enough
folate-rich foods, irritability and fatigue can be side effects, which is not
going to help you in the sex department,” says Moustafa. Now we
know why Popeye always had a can of spinach.
Beetroot
Sometimes,
beetroot is refered to as nature’s
Viagra as it works in a similar way as the popular ED
drug. Rich in nitrates, and the bacteria on your tongue helps to convert
them to nitrites, which are then converted to nitric oxide in the stomach. ED
medications work by increasing nitric oxide levels, which increases blood flow
to the penis by dilating blood vessels. Voila!
