Aphrodisiac Foods List

Aphrodisiac Foods List: Claims and Facts [Part 2/2]

Aphrodisiac Foods List: Claims and Facts [Part 2]

Food does not only nourish the body with energy, but it also nourishes the soul, the senses, and the lust. Many foods have been claimed to have an energizing and aphrodisiac effect therefore be considered as member of aphrodisiac foods list. This effect might be based on their shape, aroma, taste, or the changes they cause in the human body. Many of “aphrodisiac foods list” are part of our daily nutrition, many part of especial occasion dinners, and some just part of healthy snaking. So let’s have a closer look at some of these aphrodisiac foods list (love foods):
 

Aphrodisiac Foods List

Figs
Figs are another fruit that claims aphrodisiac qualities based on its appearance. An open fig is thought to look similar to female sex organs.

Garlic
Garlic belongs to one of the powerful circulatory stimulants. It is one of the healthiest herbs that improves cardiovascular health. Tibetan monks in fact were not allowed to enter the monastery if they had been eating garlic because of its reputation for stirring up passions. Garlic increases circulation and allows good circulation into the genital areas facilitating stimulation and erections, so it is a perfect match for aphrodisiac foods list.
 
Ginger
Ginger is another member of the “hot” spices. People have deemed ginger root an aphrodisiac for centuries because of its scent and because it stimulates the circulatory system.

Honey Aphrodisiac Foods list
In medieval times, people drank mead, a fermented drink made from honey, to promote sexual desire. In ancient Persia, couples drank mead every day for a month (known as the “honey month” — a.k.a. “honeymoon”) after they married in order to get in the right frame of mind for a successful marriage. Honey is rich in B vitamins (needed for testosterone production) as well as boron (helps the body metabolize and use estrogen). Some studies have suggested that it may also enhance blood levels of testosterone. Therefore honey is one of key members of aphrodisiac foods list.

Licorice
In ancient China, people used licorice to enhance love and lust. The smell appears to be particularly stimulating.

Nutmeg
In ancient China, women prized nutmeg an aphrodisiac; in high quantities it might have hallucinogenic effects.
 
Oysters
Oysters belong to the most famous group of aphrodisiac foods list known since the Roman times.  Oysters are high in zinc, which has been associated with improving sexual potency in men. Recently, mussels, clams and oysters have been found to contain D-aspartic acid and NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) compounds may be effective in releasing sex hormones like testosterone and estrogen. And last but not least, oysters have been told to resemble the female vagina!

Papaya
Papaya is told to improve female libido. It  is told to increase the female hormone estrogen and help to promote menstruation and milk production, facilitating childbirth and increasing the female libido, this is the key for papaya to enter aphrodisiac foods list.
 
Pine Nuts
Like oysters, pine nuts too are high in zinc. Since Medieval times they have been used to make love potions to stimulate libido. We talked about other aphrodisiac foods list in the previous post!
