5 Winter Foods For Better Sex

Do you feel like snuggling into a warm quilt instead of your partner, during cold winter nights? If so, then your libido may need a little boost. Remember, the food we eat impacts our health. So, try these winter foods to enhance your sex life. 

Strawberries
Strawberries have been known to be aphrodisiacs and have been commonly used during foreplay. But these luscious red berries are also high in B vitamins and folate, which help prevent birth defects. They are also high in vitamin C, which gives them libido boosting properties. They also contain a compound that helps relax the blood vessels and improves circulation, thereby creating a natural viagra-like-effect. 

Pumpkin seeds
Pumpkin seeds are full of zinc, which helps pump up the female sex drive and elevates the levels of testosterone in men. They are also rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which benefit a healthy libido. Other than that they also include nutrients like selenium and vitamin E, which are good for the arteries. 

Sweet Potatoes
In African cultures, sweet potatoes have been part of many fertility therapies and estrogen replacement therapies to boost one's sex drive.  They are packed with potassium, which helps prevent high blood pressure, thereby reducing one's chance of any risks associated with erectile dysfunction. 

Pomegranates
This red fruit has long been known to be a superfood but did you know that it can be a sexual stimulant too? Drinking pomegranate juice can bring about a notable surge in testosterone levels, which further increases libido in both men and women. This fruit has also been known to cure erectile dysfunction and regulate circulation. 

Apples
Apples contain phenylethylamine (PEA) that make you feel naturally excited and happy. Phenylethylamine is the same ingredient present in chocolate and releases a feel-good chemical in the body. Apart from that, apples also contain quercertin, a flavonoid that helps prevent prostate cancer.
