Happy Valentine
Eat and drink your way to better s*x. If you’re planning a romp for Valentine’s Day, make sure you find the oomph factor by including some aphrodisiac fare in your diet in the run-up to romance.
BREAKFAST
Porridge and honey: As well as giving
you plenty of energy, oats help testosterone production and contain B vitamins
linked with boosting s*xual performance. Squeeze some honey on top too – it
contains boron, which regulates s*x hormones. Slice of wholemeal toast with
peanut butter:The high levels of monounsaturated fats in peanut butter increase
feel good dopamine in the body and are known to increase s*xual arousal in
women. Peanuts also contain a substance called L-arginine that helps men get
turned on. Scrambled eggs and salmon:Packed with protein and zinc, eggs will
help boost libido while salmon is stuffed with omega-3 essential fatty acids to
maintain healthy circulation.
MORNING SNACKS
Bananas:Not only do they look
er*tic, they have minerals and vitamins to perk up passion, from muscle
strengthening potassium to vitamin B6, which is associated with better orgasms.
Chocolate:Chocolate contains chemicals that naturally feed our feelings of
happiness. In a 2004 study in Italy, researchers found that women who ate more
chocolate felt more sexually fulfilled.
LUNCH
Cheese and cucumber sandwich: A
2006 study discovered that the smell of cucumber was one of the most arousing
for women while cheeses, especially potent ones, imitate human pheromones, the
scent signals that arouse our partners. Avocado Salad:The folic acid in
avocados increases stamina.
AFTERNOON SNACKS
Doughnuts: Blokes get turned on
just by the smell, according to research by the US Smell and Taste Treatment
and Research Foundation. Liquorice:Used as an aphrodisiac since ancient times,
in China it’s thought to stimulate the female s*x glands and boosts hormone
production.
NIBBLES
Pistachios: These are the perfect pre-dinner nibbles as a
Turkish study showed they could boost blood flow.
Popcorn: Settling down to a
movie later? Get in some popcorn. It’s another food that contains L-arginine
which can increase sperm count.
DINNER
Starters Celery and dips: The green stuff
is a bite of all right as it contains androsterone, a hormone that attracts
women when men perspire. Asparagus tips:The posh food is believed to have
properties that lead to better orgasms in both men and women. Main course
A
curry: Contains a range of libido-lifting ingredients. Chillies stimulate nerve
endings for heightened sensation. Ginger is linked to increased s*xual desire
while the allicin in garlic increases blood flow to the s*xual organs.
A
steak: Another food that’s full of zinc, while the protein also tops up the
feel-good chemicals in your brain. Put mustard on the side – it’s believed to
stimulate s*x glands. Seafood platter:We all know oysters are an aphrodisiac
thanks to their testosterone-boosting zinc. But other seafood, like prawns, do
the same job. Desserts Vanilla ice cream and strawberries:The smell of vanilla
has been found to be extremely er*tic and the minerals in it are thought to
boost endurance in the sack. Add fresh strawberries for another dose of zinc.
Watermelon: It has a magic ingredient called citrulline. This speeds up the
amount of nitric oxide in the body and means you get aroused more quickly.
DRINKS
Coffee: A US study found that those who drink coffee daily have more s*x
than those who don’t.
Glass of wine: An Italian study found that this was the
best drink to help women get in the mood. Red wine contains resveratrol that
can help blood flow during s*x.
Champagne: While too much alcohol will sap your
energy, champagne is a good choice to lift your spirits as the bubbles mean you
feel the effects a lot quicker than with other drinks.
Beer: Hops contain the female
hormone oestrogen, meaning a pint could do wonders for the female libido, but
is sadly more likely to sap a bloke’s ability.
