SIX METHODS THAT CAN BOOST YOUR SEXUAL PERFORMANCE

There are several natural methods exist that can help get you and your partner
back under the sheets.

According to Harvard Health Publications, sexual dysfunction affects both men and women of all ages for a variety of reasons, including old age, chronic illness, stress, and anxiety. The following tips will go a long way in boosting your sexual life.

Take a Bite Out of a Forbidden Fruit

While little evidence supports the effectiveness of such substances, there’s no harm in experimenting with the much touted libido-boosting foods, known as aphrodisiacs.
Figs, bananas, and avocados are just a few of the foods known to arouse both men and women simply by their suggestive appearance. But these foods also provide important vitamins and minerals that can potentially increase blood flow to the genitals and promote a healthy sex life.

Indulge in All Things Chocolate

Throughout history, chocolate has been a symbol of desire not only because of its delectable taste, but because of its power to improve sexual pleasure.
According to an article published in the South African Journal of Clinical Nutrition, chocolate releases phenylethylamine and serotonin into the human system, which can produce some aphrodisiac and mood-lifting effects. However, according to a study published in The Journal of Sexual Medicine, the effects of chocolate on sexuality are most likely more psychological than biological.

Take Your Daily Herbs

Next time you decide to sit down for a romantic dinner, add a little basil or garlic to your dish. The smell of basil stimulates the senses and garlic contains high levels of allicin, which increases blood flow and may help men with erectile dysfunction, according to the BBC.
Ginkgo biloba, an extract derived from the leaf of the Chinese ginkgo tree, is another herb found to effectively treat antidepressant-induced sexual dysfunction, according to the National Center for Biotechnology Information.

Boost Your Self-Confidence

The way you feel about your body affects the way you feel about sex. An unhealthy diet and lack of exercise can not only cause you to have a poor self-image, but it can discourage you from having and enjoying sex.
According to Harvard Health Publications, you can boost your self-esteem and your sex drive by shifting the focus from your flaws to your attributes. You can also focus on the pleasure experienced during sex, instead of just the physical aspect.

Stick to One Glass of Wine

Two glasses of wine might be one too many, but one glass of wine is just right, according to Mayo Clinic. As many of us are familiar with, drinking one glass of wine can put you at ease and increase your desire to be intimate. But too much alcohol can ruin your ability to perform the act, affecting erectile function and the ability to orgasm.

Take Time to Meditate and Relieve Stress

No matter how healthy you are, being stressed out is going to affect your sex drive. According to Harvard Health Publications, women are particularly susceptible to the effects stress can have on one’s sex life. Men, on the other hand, can sometimes use sex as a way to relieve stress, which can cause conflict.
To relieve stress, Mayo Clinic suggests participating in sports activities, practicing tai chi, or taking a yoga class.
