Sex therapists agree that how you feel physically and emotionally can impact how you last longer in bed. And, one of the many pleasures in life can actually stem from eating the right foods.
Sure, there are some foods that bring pleasure, but there are also some that are considered to be the best foods for men’s virility.
Today, I am going to tell you which of the foods out there are great when it comes to helping men last longer in bed.
Bananas
In Ayurvedic medicine, the foods or ingredients that look like sex organs are implied to work wonders for people, sexually speaking. That means that fruits like bananas can provide amazing effects to people who eat it and that is actually true (proven by science).
For quite a long time, bananas have been deemed to look like penises and that is why the porn industry never ceases to use the said fruit as props for some scenes.
But, bananas actually improve your sexual endurance in a lot of ways. First, it contains potassium which helps lower blood pressure. Lower blood pressure means that you get better in bed simply because you will not experience any nagging feeling on the back of your head.
Aside from that, potassium is also known to help reduce inflammation and it is quite helpful for people who suffer from erectile dysfunction. Inflammation is one of the leading causes of why some blood vessels get restricted, thus reducing blood flow to the penis (which will result in ED).
Another reason why bananas can help you last longer in bed is thanks to its carbohydrate content. Carbohydrates are converted into glucose by our bodies which is the main energy currency our body uses to move.
Red Grape
Have you ever noticed that after you drink a glass or two of wine that you are able to maintain an erection for a much longer time? Well, that has something to do with its base ingredient- red grapes.
Red grapes are deemed to be nature’s ‘Viagra’ simply because it contains boron- an element that can help promote testosterone production in men.
Aside from drinking two glasses of red wine, you can opt to eat the whole fruit instead.
Spicy Foods
Spicy foods, particularly those that contain chili, are great for improving one’s sex drive and that has something to do with its main active ingredient- capsaicin.
Capsaicin is responsible for improving your metabolism, but more importantly, it is also found to help dilate the blood vessels, thus improving blood flow to the different areas of the body.
Meat
Meat like grass-fed beef and chicken are always great for the body for a number of different things. They are rich in protein which can help promote muscle building and repair. It contains amino acids that promote sexual function, specifically l-arginine. Plus, they are loaded with B-vitamins that can help improve your energy overall.
But, what about vegetarians? Well, the good thing is eating nuts and whole grains can also provide a similar effect as they, too, contain amino acids (and some protein of course).
