Sexual Health: Foods
In today’s world where a pill can fix just
about anything, there have been studies done to show how both
when men and women respond to medical treatment. Both men and
women were given a placebo and told it was a new medication
that would enhance their sexual performance. The majority of
the men and women said that they indeed noticed an increase
in their sexual drive and performance. This study shoes that
the most important part of enhancing our libido comes from
the mind. So how does food affect sexual and emotional health?
Adding
soy to your diet will help in vaginal lubrication. Soy adheres to estrogen receptors, which maintains the lubrication
the vagina needs. Soy is also used to suppress the effects
of hot flashes that occur during menopause. Soy promotes a
healthy prostate. To improve your circulation and stimulate
nerve endings try adding chili peppers and ginger to your diet.
As this improves, so will your sexual pleasure.
Food that is good for your heart will also be great for your
penis. Good blood flow is necessary for an erection. If the
heart is not operating properly, there is a good chance the
penis will not be standing as straight as you want it to either.
Foods that are high in saturated fat will clog the arteries,
which in turn will limit the amount of blood flow that will
reach your genital region. Fat is essential to create your
hormones, but your body needs the right type of fats. Olive
oils, seafood, and nuts are a great source of the good fat
that will help in producing the hormones that are essential
for your sexual health to operating at peak performance.
Here is a look at foods that have been praised for having
aphrodisiac qualities to them:
- Rhino horn – is said to increase the sexual appetite
- Asparagus
- Bananas
- Eels
- Oysters
- Figs
- Ginseng
The thought behind these foods is to increase your sex drive
based on their smell, taste, or appearance. There are those
who believe that if you eat foods that are phallic in appearance
you will make your penis strong and hard like the food you
ingest. The same thought process applies to eating oysters
and figs, which either smell or look like a woman’s vulva when
she is aroused. By ingesting the foods, they hope that they
will become plump, slippery, and tasty as well.
When
you eat hot foods, it is thought to make you have the
appearance of sexual excitement. Eating sweet or spicy foods
is said to put you in a relaxed mood and ready to partake of
more pleasure.
Do
these food myths work? Not they way they are reported to
work. They cannot change your sexual organs to look any different
than they already do. Although the power of suggestion is strong
and using food as a form of seduction or as a form of sexual
play can be very enticing. A great way to spice up your sex
life is with the use of food.
Fast boosts and slow effects:
Alcohol will relax you emotionally and give you a flushed
appearance. For the short amount of time it lasts it boosts
your self-confidence
Caffeine and sugar is always a quick boost of energy
These are a couple of short-term effects and the reality is
what we eat on a daily basis will in the long term, have the
strongest effect on your sexual health. To be at your best
both physically and sexually your diet should contain plenty
of fish and fresh vegetables.
To make food a part of your sexual experience cook or create
foods that will entice both you and your lover into a passionate
night of tasting and exploring, cook a meal together of your
favorite foods and then feed them to each other. You could
sit at a table while doing this or you could spread a blanket
on the floor, place the foods around the floor, and then let
your imagination and passion flow free.
'The Karma Sutra' suggests a ram's or goat's testicle boiled
in sweetened milk, and cooked with sparrow’s eggs, rice and
honey for an aphrodisiac. # # # # #
