Do you like avocados, eat onions, or crave chocolate? If so, then you are on the right path to improve your sex drive and libido.

Historically certain foods have been linked with sexuality. Early Romans and Greeks consumed a large amount of onions to improve sexual endurance. Avocados were treasured by the Aztecs for their sexual properties. Chocolate was touted as the ultimate aphrodisiac when the Spanish introduced it to the world.

These were not the only foods to be so distinguished. Carrots, eggs, bananas, and figs are on the long list of foods acclaimed for their erotic qualities through the ages.

Since the introduction of Viagra and a host of other enhancement drugs, you may be temped to dismiss the beneficial effects of the more natural stimulants.  Don’t reject these ancient ideas to quickly.

Science has examined the nutritional content of these erotic foods and has discovered that they truly do have a positive effect on the libido. For example: eggs and chocolate contain choline and amino acids, which make neurotransmitters that are involved in the sex drive.  Carrots have a form of vitamin A that helps the production of sex hormones. Onions help to lower the cholesterol levels in the blood, which is a major cause of impotence. Avocados contain niacin, which affects orgasmic pleasure and lowers elevated cholesterol levels.

The nutrients contained in these foods clearly enhance your body’s natural sex chemicals such as dopamine, estrogen, epinephrine, and androgen. In addition they help improve your overall health and conditioning.  What a great combination.

Our ancestors were on to something when they told us to eat carrots, avocados, and chocolate, which were all gleaned from nature’s garden.

Nutrients have affected the human sex drive since the beginning of time. So don’t let anyone tell you that there’s no such thing as an aphrodisiac.
