You’ve been around the block a few times. And you’ve filed a few decades worth of living in the “been there, done that” folder already.
In fact, you could teach the younger generations a thing or two about living. Including a master’s class on what grown folks get up to in the privacy of their own bedroom.
Which is why it’s so frustrating that there hasn’t been a whole lot of “doing” going on in your own lately.
Listen, things naturally slow down as we age. We don’t move as quickly as we once did. And why should we? We’ve earned the right to mosey along and smell the roses.
And when it comes to sex things often slow down a bit too. Which, despite what the under-40s think, is actually a good thing. Replacing frantic, fumbling quickies with leisurely lovemaking sessions is the best-kept secret of becoming a senior. (Shh. I won’t tell them if you don’t.)
Libido boosting foods light a fire in the bedroom
But if the temperature in your bedroom has plummeted from fiery to frosty, that’s no way to live. It’s time to bring sexy back. And as strange as it sounds that can start with a trip to the grocery store.
Following are five common foods that experts say can help put the sizzle back in the sack. Go ahead and pick them up today to spark a sleepy libido and build up your sexual stamina.
1. Celery:
Grab a grocery cart and make your first stop the produce section. Celery is the plain Jane of the vegetable aisle. But when it comes to putting the sizzle back in the sack, it’s surprisingly effective. In fact, rumor has it celery can make you downright irresistible to your lady friend.
The humble veggie is a good source of testosterone booting vitamin K. And when your testosterone levels are higher, you just ooze sex appeal. In a study, women rated the smell of high testosterone men as being the most pleasant and arousing.
A chemical called androstenol is behind that musky, manly smell. And some researchers believe testosterone could kick the production of this natural pheromone, which drives women wild, into high gear. And of course, that same testosterone heats up your own libido and primes YOU for a roll in the hay too.
2. Asparagus:
It turns out God may have designed asparagus spears to remind us of a particular part of the male anatomy to for a reason. Asparagus is loaded with essential nutrients that can enrich your love life.
Asparagus is an excellent source of vitamins B6 and folate. B6 reportedly can help boost your libido. Plus it pumps up your energy levels. In other words, it gives you both the will and the way to “get it on.” And both vitamins can increase arousal and enhance orgasm.
Asparagus is also rich in vitamin E, which stimulates desire hormones in both men and women, putting you both in the mood. Which means if you’re looking to get lucky fixing a meal with fresh, sexy asparagus spears on the side might be just the ticket.
3. Watermelon:
Some guys refer to watermelon as natural Viagra. And for good reason. Research proves it works.
A study conducted at Texas A&M University suggests it can have a mild Viagra-like effect on men. But without the worrisome side effects.
Watermelon contains the potent phytonutrient citrulline, which your body converts to blood-vessel-friendly arginine. And like a gentle version of Viagra, it helps relax blood vessels. This increases blood flow, including down south precisely where you want it.
The result is enhanced desire along with enhanced ability to perform. And that’s a one-two combo, which can lead to some explosive results in the bedroom. So start thumping some melons to pick out a good one.
4. Avocados:
Be sure to put some avocados in your cart too. Hiding inside this funny looking green fruit are some long-term and short-term solutions for lighting things up between the sheets again.
Avocados are loaded with critical heart-friendly nutrients. Those include blood-pressure-regulating magnesium, homocysteine-fighting B vitamins, and cholesterol-lowering monounsaturated fats. And, of course, a healthy heart leads to good blood circulation, which is vital for a good love life.
The B6 in avocados can also help trigger desire and give you the stamina to keep on going. And energy-supporting omega-3 fatty acids lend a hand too.
5. Oysters:
Now head on over to the seafood counter and grab some fresh oysters. It turns out their reputation for libido boosting is rooted in solid science. Oysters are loaded with the mineral zinc, which helps your body produce testosterone. And testosterone is critical for increasing your potency and libido.
Make sure to share some with your lovely lady too. Her body makes far less testosterone, but it’s a vital part of her sex drive also.
Don’t wait another day. Stoke your engines and turn up the temperature in YOUR bedroom starting tonight with these five PROVEN libido boosters.
