As we near almost a full year of Covid, I think we can safely say that life is starting to feel a little like ‘Ground-Hog Day!’
Everyday routines can kill libido at the best of times, but add homeschooling, restaurants, gyms & workplaces being closed AND social restrictions in place, it’s not surprising that some may be struggling to keep certain ‘flames burning’ if you know what I mean...
Below are some nutritional nibbles to help get you in the mood...
🌱Pumpkin seeds
Pumpkin seeds are a great source of zinc, which boosts testosterone. Not only is this great for men, but studies have shown women with high levels of testosterone have a greater sex drive. Zinc works to block the enzyme that converts testosterone to estrogen.
🌱Asparagus
Asparagus is rich in folate, a B vitamin that helps increase the production of histamine. The correct levels of histamine are important for a healthy sex drive in both men and women.
🌱Peanuts
Studies show that the amino acid L-arginine is helpful for improving sexual function in men. L-arginine is used to make nitric oxide, which relaxes blood vessels. Preliminary studies have found that L-arginine may help with erectile dysfunction. Peanuts are a rich natural source of L-arginine
🍉Watermelon
Watermelon is rich in L-citrulline, an amino acid that helps improve blood flow. L-citrulline supports the body in optimizing blood flow when it converts to L-arginine and then to nitric oxide. Nitric oxide is involved in vasodilation (dilation of the blood vessels). Low levels of nitric oxide are associated with mental and physical fatigue and sexual dysfunction. Like Viagra, L-citrulline increases blood flow to the sexual organs but without any negative side effects.
A study published in the journal “Urology” that citrulline found in the watermelon, has amino acid. This improves blood flow even in the penis and that too without the side effects that one might have from viagra.
