Alis Lets Talk Sex - SEX & Food...

Ali's Health Sex ED 101 - Does Food Matter?
Can Food make you perform better in Bed?

Hey friends!
I am in my mid 40's and many of my friends are as well and we are not getting older we are getting wiser, more rambunctious, spontaneous, etc...
One thing I can say for certain (for me at least) is life sure does get better and so should sex.
We don't die off after our 20's or after we have had children we actually start living (i hope).  Sex is a major part of life.  It is a major part of relationships (whether we want to admit it openly or not).
Well I am here to talk about it. From a physical & mental point of view.

Look.... we can play around here and say we don't need to worry about our bodies.  Say it doesn't matter what we eat, how much sleep we get, our stress levels etc...
NOT TRUE!!!  and you know it as soon as you try to get it on......or as soon as you are finished...
Saying it doesn't matter is a cop out to me.  Yes, I said it.... a Cop out. A way to displace our behavior when in actuality we need to take responsibility.

At the end of the day and the beginning, for this matter.  You are in total control.
So lets get down to it.

Pharmaceutical companies are making a killing on all these different sex help drugs..
with Side effects lists that make me rather become a nun. (like why do I need to have diarrhea or nausea, cramps, dizziness list goes on for everything)  That is alarming to me...?!?!?!
They have FloMax, Cialis, Viagra, Levitra (for Men) and Intrinsa and Flibensarin (for Women) to name a few. And I am certain they work for many people.
BUT what if just a change in diet and lifestyle can help correct the issue and the side effects leave you feeling UP instead of down? Puns Intended....

So let's list a few foods in this first edition that are good for sexual health management...

Tomatos are high in lycopine which is great for blood food. ie. erection.
Celery helps balance sodium levels.  Lower sodium levels pull sodium from Bones making them weaker.  pay attention...
Citrus is high in flavonoid which decreases blood pressure and  increases erectile function.
Avocados aid in balancing hormones and cervical cancers.
Olives assist in the function of ovaries.
Pineapples are high in Vitamin C and other benefits and said to increase the TASTE.... Whether this is true or not, if it helps you eat more good foods.. .I say do it. ;)

Everyone may not agree with this information... but I am a firm believer you are what you eat. and your body speaks to you we just have to listen.  So when things are not working like they should we owe it to ourselves to pay attention SOONER than later.

So before you resort to synthetic drugs, for the purpose of getting your rocks off or on... consider a natural healthy alternative.   Start with being honest with yourself. Find a good support system. Be with someone who will support your lifestyle changes.  why shouldn't they???? it benefits them....

And if you are still on the line with this one and don't really think you need to change for YOU (the most important person) and you are blessed enough to have a significant other, then.... well.... Do it for them.
The response will be magical....

Look Better, Feel Better, Taste Better
