    Six Foods to Maintain Healthy Sex


    Eat these to (naturally) turn up the heat

    Asparagus
    Asparagus is rich in vitamin B6 and folate, both of which can boost arousal and
    orgasm. It also boasts vitamin E, which stimulates sex hormones in men and women.

    Avocado
    Energy and libido are crucial for sex, and avocados can give you both. They’re loaded
    with minerals, monounsaturated fats (the good kind that protect the heart and lower
    cholesterol), and vitamin B6 – all of which help keep your energy and sex drive up.
    They’re also a top source of omega-3 fatty acids, which naturally boost your mood.

    Chile Peppers
    Chile peppers can really spice things up thanks to capsaicin, a chemical that’s been
    shown to induce the release of endorphins in the brain, which create a feeling of
    euphoria.

    Chocolate
    Chocolate has long been linked with love and sex. It contains tryptophan, which helps
    the body produce serotonin, a natural feel-good chemical that may play a role in
    sexual arousal. Chocolate also provides phenyl ethylamine, a stimulant thought to
    contribute to that lovey-dovey feeling.

    There are general recommendations and may not be appropriate for everyone. Please consult
    with your healthcare provider regarding your individual needs.
    Licorice
    This candy is thought to mimic the effects of estrogen and progesterone, critical
    hormones for normal sexual function. Be sure to buy a variety that contains real
    licorice-root extract.

    Oysters
    Oysters are loaded with zinc. This mineral helps the body produce testosterone, a
    hormone critical in regulating women’s and men’s libido and sexual function.
    Research suggests that zinc can increase sexual potency in men. For women, zinc may
    help the ovaries – the source of estrogen, progesterone, and some testosterone – stay
    healthy.
