Foods that make your sex life more vital
We are not talking about some kind of voodoo technique here. No, you really don’t have to brew a weird ‘love potion’ or prepare the most ‘vague’ dishes. We just look at some very well-known seasonal (spring) foods, which will help you with your vitality. Which ultimately also have a vital impact on your sex life and therefore your performance in bed. Have fun everyone!
Strawberries
Strawberries are grown in a plastic greenhouse and harvested from winter, so they can actually be harvested all year round. Still, many people associate strawberries with spring. Logical, because everything starts to grow again in the spring and according to our brain, delicious strawberries are part of that.
Strawberries are cold-blooded fruits that are rich in folic acid and they contain a lot of B vitamins. Folic acid lowers the level of homocysteine in the blood, one of the causes of cardiovascular disease. Consuming strawberries relaxes blood circulation, which can prevent heart disease and stroke, while at the same time strengthening erection and helping sperm production. It is a vital fruit for both men and women as it promotes blood circulation which in turn has a positive impact on your performance in bed.
Rocket
In fact, arugula, a well-known vegetable used in salads, pizzas and sandwiches, is closely related to sex. In the past, from the 1st century, arugula was secretly used as a stimulant. Being rich in minerals and antioxidants, it is excellent for sexual health. Beta-carotene, which is present in large quantities in arugula, is a powerful antioxidant that counteracts the action of active oxygen. Which is one of the causes of aging and disease.
There is also a study that claims that rats that consumed arugula showed increased testosterone levels and sperm activity. In addition, arugula not only improves stamina but also blocks the absorption of environmental pollutants that are known to decrease stamina in the body.
Spinach
Spinach appears when it gets cold, so you might think that winter is the season for spinach, but this is only because the growing period was shortened and the harvest time brought forward. Bondi spinach is harvested in season from late February to March. The type of spinach eaten from winter to spring is the oriental type, which is short in length and sticks to the ground. Consuming spinach has a positive effect on your intestines.
The vegetable has a cold nature. In particular, it helps to strengthen endurance for those who have a lot of heat and lack of exercise. As a plant, it contains amino acids that are rare and comparable to high-quality animal proteins. Magnesium balances sex hormones and regulates muscle contraction and relaxation, so it plays an important role in relieving fatigue, sexual arousal, ejaculation and orgasm.
Dalrea (Korean)
Dalrae, which stands for spring, has been called ‘little garlic’ since ancient times and is a vegetable with a unique and spicy taste and aroma. It has a warm and spicy taste, which not only stimulates the sense of taste, but also promotes blood circulation. Because it has a nourishing and strengthening effect, Buddhism even forbids a combination with green onions, garlic, leeks and Heunggeo. These five veggies would interfere with your workout. But yes, those Buddhist monks are not allowed to do anything else, so to speak.
Dalrae stems contain a large amount of vitamins A, B1, B2 and vitamin C, which makes the metabolism run smoothly. It also helps with diseases caused by fatigue, such as loss of appetite, chapped lips or gum disease.
Citrus fruits
Among various studies on erectile dysfunction, there are interesting results related to citrus fruits. Eating foods rich in flavonoids, a plant component, reduces the risk of erectile dysfunction. It was discovered that the flavonoids of citrus fruits can prevent erectile dysfunction. Eating a lot of fruit reduces the risk of erectile dysfunction by 14%, and eating flavonoid-rich foods, in combination with exercise, reduces this to 21%.
In addition, citrus fruits such as tangerines are rich in vitamin C, antioxidants and folic acid, making them excellent effects on male reproductive health. There is actually no reason not to eat citrus fruits.
