Sure-Fire Boosters: 5 Ways to Amp Up Your Sex Life

Thinking to spice up your sex life with aphrodisiacs? Eating right and staying healthy are the biggest sex life boosters of all.


The best thing that you can do to make sure your body is ready and open to a healthy sex life is to simply live a healthy lifestyle all around. Moderate use of aphrodisiacs can be fun, but you have to remember they’re not quick fixes to any love or sexual problem. Nutrient-rich foods obviously have positive effects on overall health, including sexual health. Staying healthy is your best bet for a happy and fulfilling life.



1. TAKE VITAMIN E.

Vitamin E boosts circulation and energy. It also helps improve your skin. Vitamin E deficiency lowers the sex drives of men and women, so you and your guy should have a healthy supply of vitamin E. Try eating asparagus because this is an aphrodisiac and a popular source of vitamin E.

2. EAT TO SMELL GOOD.

Pheromones, those scents unique to each of us, can have a strong effect on romance. Eating more fruits and vegetables makes you smell better because the fiber facilitates the proper elimination of odor-causing toxins from your body. Avoid pungent food and drinks such as garlic, onion, and beer. 

3. SWITCH TO SEAFOOD.

Fish like salmon, mackerel, and sardines are high in omega-3 fatty acids. These acids optimize brain function by building and strengthening brain cell membranes. The thyroid gland, which produces hormones for growth and metabolism, is kept healthy by the supply of rich iodine from seafood. Keeping the thyroid healthy is important because an underactive thyroid may cause you to feel sluggish. 

4. MOVE IT.

Vigorous activity (not only in the bedroom) has aphrodisiac effects because it produces endorphins. These natural substances occur in the brain, and they trigger feelings of well-being. Exercise also increases stamina and stimulates blood flow to the body, including the genitals. With regular exercise, a person will have higher levels of testosterone, and this increases a person's sex drive.


5. FEED YOUR MIND.

You’re halfway there if you believe you’re going to have a wonderful time with your partner (and that the food, drink, and ambience you’ve prepared is going to have the effect you desire). It’s been said that the brain is the most powerful sex organ, even more so than the genitals. B vitamins enhance mental performance, but they also influence mood. Whole grains, tuna, and green leafy vegetables such as spinach, green beans, and nuts are great sources of vitamin B.
