Fruits: Pomegranates, passion fruit, pears, and berries (raspberries and strawberries) take the cake in this category. Other aphrodisiac foods contributing to sexual desire, stimulation and libido include apples, bananas, cherries, figs and grapes.
Vegetables: Asparagus has the reputation passion stimulant both in Ayurvedic medicine as well as Arabic folklore and is invigorating both for men and women.

Nuts and seeds: Both pine nuts and pumpkin seeds are aphrodisiac adjuvants. Almonds and pistachios are other popular sexual stimulants.
Seafood especially oysters: Legend has it that Casanova use to cherish 50 oysters every morning. It is loaded with zinc, which is needed for many critical biochemical reactions. While just the act of savoring raw oysters can be stimulating by themselves, make sure with your doctor that it okay for you to enjoy this delicacy especially if there is any question about immune system.
Is It Leaky Gut or Leaky Gut Syndrome?
Herbs and Spices Mint, cinnamon, cardamom, saffron are frequently associated with sexual stimulations. Others potential aphrodisiacs include basil, rosemary and cloves. Beware however of some sexual herbal stimulants that actually have unapproved drug aphrodisiac substrates.
Alcohol: Another glass of wine please? While planning a romantic meal, do not forget the role of alcohol. Drink in modest amount only if you don’t want to be disappointed later!
Supplements: Keep in mind that our hectic life styles does not frequently allow for a well balanced diet every day. A daily multivitamin/mineral/antioxidant supplement offers extra health insurance. Talk to your doctor about it.
Last but not the least, don’t “eat” the meal, slowly savor it. Foods may provide sexual substrates, but how you eat (enjoy) it can have an even bigger stimulant effect on the mood.
Caution again: Much of above is anecdotal passed down generations rather than rigorous randomized controlled trials!
Bottomline: Do you believe in role of food in romance? Do you think some particular foods or how they are prepared or enjoyed helps setting up the right mood and enjoyable experience? Please share your thoughts.
