There's so much more to food than nutrition

There's certain food that you eat and then suddenly wish your partner was next to you. That's aphrodisiac food right there. Nutrition is also important as malnutrition creates loss of libido as well as reduces fertility rates.
There's so much more to food than nutrition

Here's a list of some of the food that can stimulate your sexual desires:

Aniseed, has been used by the Greeks and the Romans, who believe it has special powers.

Sucking on the seeds increases your desire.

Almond, the aroma is thought to induce passion in a female. Try serving marzipan almond paste for a special after-dinner treat.

Bananas, rich in potassium and B vitamins, the necessities for hormone production.

Phallus-shaped carrot was used by early Middle- Eastern royalty to aid seduction. High in vitamins and beta-carotene. A good excuse for a piece of carrot cake.

Caffeine, is a well-known stimulant but too much of it becomes a depressant.

An open fig, is thought to imitate the female sex organs and traditionally thought of as sexual stimulant.

A man breaking open a fig and eating it in front of his lover is a powerful erotic act. Serve fresh Black Mission figs in a cool bowl and be sure to eat with your fingers.

Garlic's heat, enjoy pasta with a garlicky sauce.

Mustard, prepare a tenderloin roast for two with a mustard sauce.

Nutmeg, highly prized by Chinese women as an aphrodisiac. A light sprinkling of the spice in a warm pumpkin soup will spruce up your evening.

Pine nuts, rich in zinc, a mineral necessary to maintain some male energy. Serve pine nut cookies with a dark espresso for dessert.

Raspberries and strawberries, are perfect foods for hand-feeding your lover. Both invite love and are described in erotic literature as fruit nipples.
