Love Foods to Get You In The Mood!

So who had a lovely Valentine's day?  

I hope you were all treated extra special, not that it should actually be for one day a year, if you are special it should be for every day right?  

OK I don't want to be creating drama in your households now.. lol!

Today we are going to look at some foods that can enhance your 'love mood', you may know them as aphrodisiacs.  These are foods that stir some form of emotion and feeling throughout the body when eaten. 

Chocolate
Not for nothing is chocolate’s Latin name Theobroma or “food of the gods.” It contains phenylethylamine, similar to the drug that’s released when you fall in love, and also tryptophan, a building block of serotonin, which makes you elated. All of which will hopefully make you feel like a true love god. I thought there was a reason why us women get an orgasm over chocolate fountains...

Saffron

The costliest spice in the world. Saffron’s aphrodisiac effect comes from ginseng, the yellow crocus stamens were shown to genuinely improve sexual function. 

Steak

Steak may be a man’s best friend, but there is evidence it’s the way to a woman’s heart too. Protein-rich lean red meat boosts level of reward hormone dopamine and norepinephrine, which increases the heart rate. Both, according to studies at the University of Texas, may be important in female arousal. Not that they aren’t great for men too, with a good dose of zinc (albeit not up there with oysters) which helps guard against impotence

Champagne

“Love is like being enlivened with Champagne,” said Samuel Johnson, and whether it’s the extravagance or the effervescence, it does feel sexy – especially for women. While too much booze is clearly a passion killer for both sexes, small amounts of alcohol increase arousal in females.

Asparagus and Avacado

Asparagus, high in potassium, fibre, vitamin B6, vitamins A and C, is great for boosting both the male and female libido. Add this aphrodisiac to your dinner this Valentine's Day and it may be beneficial to you later in steaming up the bedroom. Avocado, rich in folic acid, vitamin B6, and potassium, also increases the libido.

Oysters
Oysters, the ultimate in aphrodisiacs, contain zinc, which enhances libido and increases sperm and testosterone levels. Also high in omega-3, they advocate happiness, so explore the option of breaking out the shells this Valentine's Day.
