Here is a list of foods that increase your sexual apetitite and enhance your performance in bed. So dig into them for a hot, steamy session.

Chocolate
Chocolate contains both a sedative which relaxes and lowers inhibitions and a stimulant to increase activity and the desire for physical contact.

Almonds
Best when eaten raw, almonds are high in libido-boosting vitamin E. A very sensible sex-boosting insurance policy. Eat daily.

Chilli Peppers
Chilli Peppers replicate symptoms of arousal and they raise body temperatures too.

Bananas
This suggestively shaped fruit regulates blood pressure, and you’d do well to eat one a day, because there’s nothing quite like excessively high blood pressure (also known as hypertension) to cause erectile dysfunction. Due not only to its shape, but also its creamy, lush texture, some studies show its enzyme bromelain enhances male performance.

Garlic
This one’S surprising, because we all know how unattractive it is to be around someone who reeks of garlic. But take note, allicin improves blood flow to the sexual organs, so just make sure you and your partner have garlic in your meal together and you won’t mind the way the other smells. You have to admit, for garlic, that’s a sexy picture.

Asparagus
Three courses of asparagus were served to 19th century bridegrooms due to its reputed aphrodisiac powers.

Cardamom
This deliciously exotic little spice has a reputation in its home country of India for being an aphrodisiac. It’s got a wonderful, sensual taste. But there may be some science behind it too: cardamom is high in cineole, which stimulates the nervous system.

Black gram
Black gram keeps your testosterone level high. According to experts, men below 40 should have black gram (urad dal) once a week, while men above 40 should have it thrice a week to keep their testosterone level high.

Brazil nuts
Brazil nuts along with almonds are rich in the amino acid arginine. They boost the level of blood to the genitals, acting like a natural viagra.

Figs
Thease are loaded with manganese, magnesium, vitamin E and zinc, which improve sexual health.

Chicken
Chicken contains zinc and B6 in abundance which help in the production of testosterone, the hormone that is responsible for a man’s sex drive.

Cacao
Always a woman’s favorite. Real dark chocolate with a high cacao content contains natural stimulants and wellbeing chemicals, plus plenty of magnesium which is good for the heart and women’s libido. A healthy heart means better circulation, and that means better sex drive. Melt it, pour it, lick it. It contains both a sedative which relaxes and lowers inhibitions and a stimulant to increase activity and the desire for physical contact. It was actually banned from some monasteries centuries ago.

Ginger
The spicy taste of hot, fresh ginger tea will heat your body up, make your heart race and increase the heat. What more do you need to get it going?

Guava
High in vitamin C, guava is great for the antioxidants. Kiwi and berries are high in vitamin C too, which keeps the sexual glands running smoothly. There’s nothing like sharing a cool fruit salad on a hot summer’s day.

Oysters
Oysters have been on the list of libido lifters for centuries now. Casanova reportedly had dozens every morning before setting out on his amorous quests. Research shows that bivalve molluscs are actually rich in zinc, essential for testosterone production, and hence can boost sexual performance in men and women.

Pomegranate Juice
A very sensual juice and luscious juice (surely Nigella Lawson would approve), many think that pomegranate’s high antioxidant content keeps free radicals from interfering with circulation. Which would have a positive effect on erectile dysfunction.

Pumpkin seeds
Pumpkin seeds contain loads of zinc, which is important for preventing testosterone deficiency in men. Moreover, they contain many libido vitamins including the B vitamins, and vitamins E, C, D, and K which boosts libido naturally.

Rosemary
Rosemary is good for digestion and it also contains enzymes that increase your sexual performance.

Truffles
Truffles have long been considered to arouse the palate and the body

Broccoli
Broccoli is a natural testosterone booster. It is a cruciferous vegetable- like cauliflower and cabbage- which flushes out estrogen from the body- helping the maintain the level of testosterone.
