Nutrition and diet are an important part of a woman’s overall health. These factors also affect their sexual health. With increasing age, the hormone level decreases and with the hormone level also the libido. Women can undergo hormone replacement therapy to replace depleted hormones, but alternatives exist. Monitoring your diet will help you maintain a vital, healthy sex life.
For the best sexual health in women, you should eat foods rich in magnesium, potassium, vitamin E, zinc, niacin, and amino acids. Foods high in fat can affect a woman’s sexual well-being by blocking arteries and reducing blood flow to erogenous zones. Eating larger amounts of fruits and vegetables lowers cholesterol and increases blood flow. Blood flow corresponds to sexual stimulation. A healthy heart means sexual stamina, so eating healthy fiber and starches also contributes to sexual health. Vitamin supplements and multivitamins increase energy levels and increase blood flow, giving you an overall boost in sexual health.
Reducing stress and getting enough sleep are always factors in the bedroom. A woman’s ability to maintain sexual interest and have regular orgasms depends on her ability to de-stress, relax, and be stimulated. Stimulating the senses of smell and touch through massage oils and lubricants can play an important role in relaxation and overall sexual health. The following methods can help to reduce stress: yoga, meditation or just a hot bath and a good book.
Diet and exercise are also an integral part of a man’s sexual health. Many factors can contribute to changes in sexual health: including medication, illness, fatigue, and/or disease. Heart problems can be caused by a high-fat diet. Adding fish and protein-rich foods can rejuvenate a man’s sexual health, along with foods high in zinc. Fish, shellfish and oysters all stimulate prostate health.
Vitamin E and niacin are both vitamins directly linked to sexual health. Vitamin E is called the “sex vitamin” because it is said to lead to stronger erections. Niacin builds up the sex and adrenal hormones. This vitamin mimics the natural blush one gets from sexual arousal and arousal. Niacin dilates blood vessels and increases blood flow. Again, for both men and women, blood flow is synonymous with sexual stimulation.
Exercise is good for your body. Sex is good for your body. Exercise leads to enhanced sexual experiences because the heart is pumping, blood is flowing, and energy is available. When you exercise, your body releases a large amount of stress. Achieving orgasm during intercourse will relieve more stress. Basically, your physical and sexual health will benefit from your healthy lifestyle.
