The virtues of ginger on sexual desire are known but it is not the only ingredient to offer stimulating properties. We have selected 6 natural aphrodisiacs to put on your plate to spice up your sex life.
Cocoa
Cocoa is able to increase the levels of chemical agents in the body that make you feel good. These chemicals include neurotransmitters like serotonin and endorphins which have euphoric properties1. The body is more receptive and more toned, which can develop sexual desire.
Saffron
Particularly famous, saffron is a spice that has aphrodisiac qualities. It would strengthen sexual desire and have stimulating properties on the erogenous zones due to its content of phytosterols (= natural components, present in small quantities in plants)2. Saffron would also help lubricate the vaginal mucous membranes.
