Surely you have heard sometime that there are certain foods that if consumed, can significantly increase the desire to have sex. But is this really true?, if you have asked this question, we too; so if you want to find out if aphrodisiac foods really work or if they are just a hoax,  you has come to the right place. We warn you that the answer to this question may surprise you.

The word aphrodisiac comes from Aphrodite, who is known for being the Greek goddess of love and beauty. Aphrodisiac foods are those groceries that help in one way or another to raise a person’s libido and increase sexual desire. There is a long list of foods that are considered aphrodisiacs; however, many people doubt that these actually help stimulate a person sexually.

Does Eating these foods will increase your desire to have sex?, according to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), this is not true. After much research it was concluded that consuming these foods does not directly increases the sexual desire of a person.

But how is justified that a person feel an increase in their libido after eating certain foods? This is due to the placebo effect that these foods have. If a person eats food believing that this will increase their desire or is ingested in a romantic atmosphere where you know that you might have sex, it is more likely that your desire increases, but not by the physical properties of the food, but because the person is already predisposed to this.

The only food that has been scientifically proven to possess aphrodisiac properties is the beloved black chocolate. This delicious dessert contains in its composition polyphenols, which improve blood circulation of who eat it and in the case of men, indirectly help maintain or achieve an erection.

There are also foods considered aphrodisiacs because of the similarity they have with the shape of the genitals of humans, such as: oysters and bananas. When a person consumes or see this kind of food, immediately associate the shape with the same reproductive organ and in many cases it is possible to imagine or remember sexual experiences.

Do not be afraid to try new things, remember that the routine is the worst that can happen to a couple. If you feel your inner life is stagnated or not feeling sexually attracted to your partner as before, this can be a symptom of a deeper problem.

If you want to add these foods to your relationship as a way to make it special don’t hesitate to do it. Although these foods do not act directly in increasing your libido, if consumed by the couple in a sensual and romantic atmosphere, these surely will achieve its mission.
