Your Sexual Health: Natural Remedies
There are many aspects of women’s lives that
are given great deal of attention. Often, a woman’s sexual
health gets left out in the cold. However, just as nutrition
and diet are important aspects to women’s health in general,
it can also be an important factor to women’s sexual health.
As women get older their hormone levels decrease,
which sends their libido plummeting into nothingness. There are many supporters
of hormone replacement therapy for women who have undergone
changes that have decreased their hormone levels, but this
is not the only option available. If a woman chooses not to
take hormones, they can still function effectively as a vital
sexual woman by paying close attention to their diet.
Foods that are high in magnesium, potassium, Vitamin E, zinc,
niacin, and amino acids are the best nutrition for women’s
sexual health. High fat diets are damaging to the sexual well
being of women. Women would fair much better if they stick
to a low-fat diet. If a woman consumes a high fat diet this
can cause blocked arteries, which can restrict blood flow.
If the blood flow is, constricted sexual performance will not
be at its peak.
Increasing the amount of fruits and vegetables lowers cholesterol
and stimulates the blood flow to the organs within the body.
Fiber and starches (healthy ones) promote a healthy heart and
if a woman’s heart is healthy and pumping strong, her sexual
stamina will be increased. Supplements and multivitamins heighten
sexuality by increasing energy levels, boosting circulation
and bring an overall sense of well being to the senses.
Stimulating
the sense of smell and touch can greatly increase your
sexual desire. The use of scents in massage oils and other
lubricants can play a very important role in a women’s sexual
health. This will not be beneficial if the woman does not get
adequate sleep, though. When a woman has an orgasm, she concentrates
on every part of her body and every sensation she is feeling.
If she is exhausted and stressed, the one thing she wants is
not sex. Another important factor to increasing a woman’s sexual
health is to decrease the level of stress she is experiencing
through out the day. This can be done through exercise, meditations,
yoga, or simply a hot bath and a good book. All of these method
helps reduce her stress and will increase her sexual health.
Eating
right and exercising are important components to men’s
sexual health also. Men will experience changes in the sexual
health at one time or another in their lives. This can be due
to a number of factors including illness, fatigue, medications,
and/or diseases. If a man’s diet is high in fat, this can lead
to cardiac complications. If the heart is not able to pump
enough blood, the chances that the man will be able to experience
an erection will be slim to none. Adding fish and foods that
are high in protein and low in fat are an excellent way to
get the man’s sexual health back on track.
Foods that are high in zinc content are great for stimulating
the health of the prostate. These foods are fish, shellfish,
such as oysters and clams are a great source of zinc. There
is a vitamin known as the sex vitamin that allows for longer
harder erections – Vitamin E.
Exercise is great for maintaining or boosting sexual health.
When you do a cardio work out, the heart is pumping, the blood
is flowing, and you are feeling good. You feel strong and ready
for an energizing sexual experience. When you work out you
reduce a great level of stress. When you have sex and experience
your orgasm, you are releasing more stress and your physical
health and sexual health are reaping the benefits of your health
lifestyle choices.
The vitamin Niacin is important in the overall sexual health
as it constructs the sex and adrenal hormones. What is important
about niacin is that after you take it, this vitamin mimics
the natural flush you get from sexual excitement. The same
hormone that is released to produce the flushed sensation when
we are aroused sexually is also released when we take niacin.
When you take niacin, it dilates the blood vessels and allows
for more blood flow thus heightening sexual pleasure. # # # # #
