Any Time, Any Place No, it’s not what you think. We’re talking about aphrodisiac foods you can eat any time and any place as well as misconceptions and just how to eat these sex foods so that you can get well… sexy.

MACA POWDER WORKS

CHOCOLATE

Chocolate is definitely sexy but the way it affects your body is in no way related to sex. Chocolate increases the level of serotonin in your body which makes you happy but doesn’t necessarily make you want to jump your partner’s bones. Maybe you can use it to set the mood but don’t expect it to help you seal the deal.

It truly does! This Peruvian product has been used for centuries and is gaining popularity. Of course, where wild claims are then there is a scientist out to prove its validity. Well science agrees with the Peruvians! This root works well for both men and women and has no side effects so drink and make merry, I guess.

1. NUTMEG

2.

This spice is so much more than a great addition to cakes and mashed potatoes. It enhances male performance so feel free to stock up on a bottle or two of this and add a generous handful to all your meals. This aphrodisiac is popular in Zanzibar and usually added to porridge. So maybe skip the wine and have nutmeg-filled porridge instead for date night.

ALMONDS

Let’s just take a moment to be thankful that nuts exist. Almonds popped up in the 2010’s and they are showing no signs of going anywhere. Whether you like them toasted, flaked or blended into a smooth butter, adding it into your diet will fill you up with necessary nutrients such as zinc, selenium and vitamin E and sexual desire. Almonds and chill, anyone?

4. FENUGREEK

3.

Who doesn’t love this pungent spice that adds a huge amount of flavour when added in even the tiniest amounts? Well, you’ll be happy to know that fenugreek works from the inside out by increasing production of sex hormones which in turn leads to an increase in sexual desire and more happy endings. Now you know how to spice up your sex life, literally.

YUMMY TIPS Try taking all these a couple of hours (or days) before you whip out the flowers and fancy dinners. Because these are natural products, they will take some time to kick in so don’t eat a packet of almonds and assume you’re suddenly going to turn into Don Juan. Find all these at Healthy U or Zucchini.
