Oysters

Yeah, just like Casanova who used to consume 50 oysters for breakfast, you too can get it going with these awesome shellfish which holds the record for highest zinc content ^[1] and contains tyrosine and phenylalanine.^[2] Zinc will increase testosterone production and will supply you with healthy and active sperm so you are ready to play anytime. Tyrosine and phenylalanine (never mind getting their names right) are amino acids responsible for producing dopamine, the brain chemical that’s released when we experience something pleasurable or the presence of it will stimulate us to engage in one^[3], in this case to mate with our partner. Eating them raw is the best way to do it, and though it is an acquired taste, the promise of an enhanced sexual performance and its resemblance to the female genitalia is enough incentive. So go for it, dude!

Beets

Beets have been used by Romans for centuries to stimulate libido. Aside from its many health benefits (anti-cancer, lowers blood pressure, detoxifies the body, etc)^[4], it also boosts your stamina giving you more power in bed. It will also help the body create nitric oxide opening up your blood vessels to allow more oxygen flow in all your organs (including your manhood) thus giving you nice rock-solid erections.^[5] Who needs Viagra? Beets are said to also contain significant amount of boron which is directly linked to the production of sexual hormones in the body for that amplified sexual drive.^[6]

Bananas

Just don’t make eye-contact with another guy when eating this fruit. Bananas not only contains Potassium and B vitamins which improves your energy levels, they also have the enzyme bromelain which triggers greater production of testosterone^[7]. Testosterone, as you know, increases libido and low testosterone levels can cause erectile dysfunction and low sex drive.^[7] Simply put, we need food that will supply our body with more testosterone for that longer lasting play time.

Raisins

Surprised that raisins is on this list? Besides supplying the body with energy, raisins are rich in Vitamin A, selenium, and has high levels of arginine (along with other nutrients such as potassium, iron, and Vitamin B). Vitamin A deficiency in men can cause atrophy in the testicles and decrease the production of sex hormones. Snacking on raisins can help prevent that dilemma. Selenium helps you produce quality sperm, and arginine helps the production of nitric oxide, which as mentioned earlier, will help you achieve full and powerful erection.^[8] Raisins are also naturally rich with the mineral boron (even higher in boron content than almond and avocado)^[9] which helps regulate testosterone production so you are ready to raise your flag anytime.

Peanuts

These groundnuts are not only packed full with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that’s good for your heart and overall well-being, but they are also an excellent source of arginine^[10] which is good for your libido.

Dark Chocolate

Not only are they a way to your woman’s heart, but these tasty treats are a sure way to her heavenly door. Dark chocolate triggers production of endorphins, the chemical in our brain that causes feelings of pleasure, and also contains serotonin which is an anti-depressant^[11]. It does not end there. Aside from making you feel good about yourself, it also has tyrosine which causes the brain to produce more dopamine^[12], thus, leaving you motivated to enjoy an intimate moment with your woman.

Eggs

Apart from being a good source of protein, eggs are rich in Vitamin B6 and B5 which balances hormone level and ease stress, just what you need to sustain a healthy libido.^[13] Eggs give more usable protein (if you involve the yolk) better than beef, and an efficient method to lose weight because of its Vitamin B12 content.  It also has amino acids which will fight off erectile dysfunction. So you look better, you feel good (eggs has Vitamin D which helps increase your body’s serotonin level, the “happy hormone”), and you have a healthy sex drive. What more can you ask for?

Oatmeal

Steven Lamm, MD, a faculty member at New York School of Medicine, said that “Essentially, what’s good for your heart is good for better sex.” ^[13] Oatmeal is good for the heart, packed with antioxidants, fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Oats are also a good source of the amino acid L-arginine to help relax blood vessels around your manhood for increased blood flow hence^[14], achieving better erections. It also is an effective way to boost testosterone in the bloodstream^[13]. Testosterone plays a big role in your sex drive and orgasm strength, so give your male hormone a boost by eating a bowl of oatmeal every day.
