My first Gues today is Cathryn Fox, one of my Allure Author buddies, and an amazingly talented author. Her current series fromAvon Red is all about sexual stimulants, and she tells the stories in a very erotic and humorous way. So today she chose to tell you all a little about some of what she learned when researching those stimulants.. Uh huh..research.
Did you know the right foods can put you in the mood? If you’re looking for natural aphrodisiacs with libido-lifting qualities, then skip the love potions, all is takes is a simple trip to the grocery store to put a little bounce in your steps…and in your mattress.
Let’s look at a few love-foods that can help increase your sexual appetite.
Chili: This spicy food can heat things up because of an ingredient called capsaicin. This is the active ingredient that gives a spicy kick to peppers, curries and flavorfully hot food. It increased blood flow to certain areas of the body and facilitates sexual performance. The hot spices raise the heart rate and release the “feel-good” endorphins that give you a natural high.
Chocolate: Chocolate contains a substance called phenylalanine, an amino acid known for raising the body’s endorphins. Try it before or during sex and give your body that extra little boost.
Oysters: Oysters are high in zinc, which boost testosterone levels, a hormone important for sexual functioning of both men and women. Remember the legend that says Casanova seduced a virgin by sliding an oyster from his lips to hers, arousing her sexual appetite.
Licorice: Licorice is 50 times sweeter than sugar, which stimulated the senses.
Celery. Celery contains androsterone, a hormone released through male perspiration that supposedly turns ladies on.
So now that you’re armed with information on how to turn that cold shoulder, into a warm smolder, what are you waiting for. Head on over to your local market, gather your supplies, and start cooking up a storm…inside the bedroom.
