Male Impotence: Eat your way to a banging Sex Life.

Several years ago I had to deal with the “I” . . . . Impotence. That pissed me off to no end but looking back it would have been at the point where my depression kicked in fully. Yup depression can cause impotence, no sex drive, no hard on – Nothing!

After a season of awkward moments and times feeling sorry for myself I decided to get my shit sorted. I had to look up some remedies and get EATING!

Certain foods contain nutrients that enhance male libido. Viagra and other medications for sexual dysfunction are not always the answer when you’re under the age of 40. Medication is a quick, short-term fix, but don’t get to the root of the problem, and they come at a cost – not only are they expensive, but they result in a growing list of serious side effects including memory loss, hearing impairment, and vision loss!

So forget the pills and start eating your way to a healthy and natural boost to your sex drive and performance! Here’s a review of the foods that contain the highest concentration of sexually stimulating nutrients.

Enhancing Male Libido

Here are the fruits and vegetables that target male libido:

Watermelon – high in citruline which stimulates nitric oxide production which increases blood flow which enhances male sexual performance.

Blueberries – Didn’t really like eating these but, my sex life at the time was more important than my taste buds. very high in antioxidants which clean the blood of free radicals and stimulate the production of nitric oxide.

Cherries – high in flavonoids which cleanse free radicals from arteries which in turn relaxes them and improves blood flow which is key to male sexual performance.

Ginger – only 1 teaspoon a couple times a week reaps huge benefits for reducing free radicals in the blood, decreasing inflammation, relaxing arteries and improving blood flow.

Bananas – the high potassium content elaxes blood vessel walls and increases blood flow. They also counteract the ill effects on the libido of a high sodium diet. Remember not to put bananas in your juicer or you’ll pretty much jam it – blend it and then add to your juiced mix.

Any combination of these makes a great sexual stimulant a couple hours before sex, i recommend the night before so all those goodies have time to absorb into your system.

If you notice unusual fatigue or diminishing sexual performance. Try this recipe:

watermelon – with seeds but without the rind

10 cherries – without pits

thumb of fresh ginger – with the skin

Add 1 or more of these foods to your fresh juice for added benefits:

black tea – increases testosterone and used by Chinese medicine for centuries as a cure for erectile dysfunction.

whole milk – promotes testosterone production.

olive oil – stimulates testosterone production.

flaxseed oil – full of omega-3 which among other things stimulates nitric oxide.

nutmeg – contains a very high amount of myristic which stimulates the production of nitric oxide. A study in BMC Complimentary and Alternative medicine, found that nutmeg is a bona fide aphrodisiac, increasing libido and erectile function.

garlic – increases nitric oxide production – just a little bit will do!

walnuts – highest concentration of L-arginine, an amino acid and building block of nitric oxide. For best results cup a day is suggested.

pistachios – a handful a day increases nitric oxide production due to the high content of arginine.

almonds – a small handful a couple times a week is all you need to enhance nitric oxide production due to the high concentration of vitamin E, according to the British Journal of Urology International.

Enhancing Female Libido

Rather than slipping your date a viagra (or anything for that matter) Try cooking her something that coincidentally contains some of the following ingredients

Celery – contains androsterone, a hormone that stimulates the sex drive for women.

Carrots – high in vitamin A which stimulates the epithelial tissue throughout the body.

Dark green veggies – high in zinc which increases libido.

Pineapple - high in manganese which is central for production of vetrogen, a hormone that is key to female sexual response. (Pineapple is also meant to change the natural flavour of vaginal and semenal fluids, i haven’t tested this myself yet, but i will report back when i do)

Avocado – high concentration of folic acid which increases energy, drive, and stamina – note: place avocado (and banana) in a blender, not your juicer, or it will clog the appliance.

Bananas – the high concentration of potassium and vitamin B boosts energy, and it’s high in bromelain enzymes which boost the sex drive.

Try this classic juice recipe a couple of hours before sex:

8 carrots – only half peeled

2 celery stalks

1 cup pineapple – without skin

Add these foods to your juice for added sexual stimulation:

dark chocolate – studies show that it contains phenylethylamine which stimulates the sex drive. It also improves blood vessel dilation by 10%.

clove – studies show that this is actually one of the very few true female aphrodisiacs, naturally increasing desire and performance.

figs – long used as an aphrodisiac in the middle east, figs contain high concentrations of amino acids that increase female libido and stamina.

eggs – one a day keeps the stress away! High in B vitamins, eggs are a great natural way to reduce stress in men and women which is the #1 cause of low libido.

ginseng – long used in Chinese medicine to increase female libido.

Avoid the following if you want a healthy sex life!

Sugar – decreases the male sexual drive by effecting testosterone levels – a sugar spike can reduce testosterone by 25%.

Trans fats – destroys cardiovascular health and sexual function in men and women.

Canned foods – inside almost every can is a liner of BPA – men exposed to high levels of this have 4 times more reports of erectile dysfunction.

Soy – estrogen-like properties in soy decrease male sexual drive by decreasing testosterone.

Salt – high levels create male erectile dysfunction that can’t even be treated with ED medication!

Alcohol – a glass or two reduces stress and inhibition which in turn stimulates sexual feelings, but more than that actually kills sexual performance in both men and women.

Sort your shit out. Good luck.
