Lets be honest, when most us decide to start eating right, it has at least something to do with getting in naked shape. Hey, we all want to look good in bed.

But, it turns out, what you eat can do more than make you look good in bed. It can actually make the sex better!

The right foods can up your sex drive, performance, and pleasure.

So here’s what you should be eating to be better in bed


1. Chocolate – hell yeah!

sex-diet-03

Chocolate is a good sex enhancer because of two particular ingredients it contains, phenylethylamine and methylxanthines. Methylxanthines are stimulants that increase the body’s sensitivity to touch, always a good thing during sex.

Phenylethylamine is a chemical that causes the body to release the same endorphins that the body releases during sex, giving you a slight high. Mix chocolate and sex and the effect is compounded!


2. Fatty Fish

Fatty fish are high in healthy omega-3 fatty acids DHA and EPA, which raise the levels of dopamine in the brain, which in turn raises the levels of sexual arousal. Fish also contains L-arginine, an amino acid that stimulates the body to release a growth hormone, which is then converted into nitric oxide that’s necessary for erections and is also improves blood flow to female sexual organs. Try out these fatty fish:


3. Oysters

We’ve all probably heard that oysters are an aphrodisiac, and it is actually true. Oysters have one of the highest levels of libido-boosting zinc of any food. If you can, try sucking down about six of the slippery suckers to get twice the recommended daily dose of zinc.


4. Celery

Celery seems like a boring and unsexy food, but it can actually help you attract the ladies. Celery contains the pheromones androstenone and androstenol, which can do two important things: Arouse the you when you eat it, and cause you to send out scent signals to the ladies around you that make you a hot commodity!


5. Seeds and Nuts

Seeds and nuts contain monounsaturated fats, which our bodies convert into the good type of cholesterol that our sex hormones need to work properly. Almonds are a particularly good choice because they are also high in zinc, selenium and Vitamin E, which are all important for sexual health. Zinc also increases your libido.


6. Sorry Vegies, but Steak is on the list

Steak is good for your sex life for two reasons; the protein boosts dopamine and norepinephrine, which heightens sensitivity during sex. Steak is high in zinc, which boosts libido.

So next time you are deciding where to take a hot date out to dinner, consider a steak house!


7. Watermelon

Studies have shown that watermelon may be a natural Viagra. It contains the nutrients lycopene, beta carotene and citrulline, all of which are good for sex. Citrulline is the particularly important one. When we ingest citrulline, the body converts it into the amino acid arginine, which boosts production of nitric oxide. Nitric oxide relaxes blood vessels (pretty much the same thing that Viagra does), so eating watermelon can treat erectile dysfunction and maybe even prevent it.


8. Spinach

Spinach is high in magnesium, which dilates blood vessels; and better blood flow to the genitals equals better sex. Also, the trace minerals found in dark, leafy greens, like arugula, have been shown to keep us from absorbing many of the environmental contaminants that can be responsible for a lower libido.


9. Fortified cereals and breads

Fortified cereals and breads have many vitamins and minerals we need to be healthy, but they contain three things in particular that are good for better sex: thiamin, riboflavin and niacin.

Thiamin and riboflavin are needed for a functioning nervous system, in turn leading to more stimulation and pleasure during sex. Niacin is a vitamin that is necessary to create histamine, a chemical the body uses to trigger more explosive orgasms.


10. Eggs

Eggs are high in B vitamins. Vitamins B5 and B6 help reduce stress and balance out hormone levels, both of which are good for a healthy libido. Have a big night coming up? Start the day off with eggs for breakfast!
