Get adventurous and use more than strawberries and chocolate as aphrodisiacs.
There are certain ingredients in foods that have long been called aphrodisiacs — having the ability to fire up passion and desire in whoever consumes them. Most of these beliefs date back to antiquity.
Some of these items are well known, such as oysters, chocolates and wine, but others don’t fly as high on the radar, even though they are easily accessible and should be used for more than satisfying our hunger or thirst.
Here is a list of the top foods that are known to increase sexual hunger, which can be more sexually fulfilling than quenching physical hunger. Food and sex often go hand in hand, so read on and use these foods to your every advantage.
Food #1: Oysters.
We’ll start with the one that everyone naturally thinks of when aphrodisiac foods are mentioned. What gives oysters aphrodisiac qualities? They have a high zinc content which increases libido. Zinc also ramps up testosterone, which increases the desire in men. Serve raw oysters with chilled champagne for a truly romantic start to your evening.
Food #2: Avocados and asparagus.
The vitamin E in these foods help your body produce hormones like testosterone, estrogen, and progesterone, all of which circulate in your bloodstream and stimulate sexual responses like clitoral swelling and vaginal lubrication. An English herbalist from the 17th century, Nicholas Culpepper, wrote that asparagus “stirs up lust in man and woman”.
In 19th century France, bridegrooms were served three courses of the sexy spears at their prenuptial dinners. And why? Asparagus is a great source of potassium, fiber, vitamin B6, vitamins A and C, and thiamin and folic acid. The latter is said to boost histamine production necessary for the ability to reach orgasms in both sexes. Who doesn’t want help in having fantastic orgasms? I know I do!

Women find this combination extremely sensual. When you add red wine as a compliment, you double your pleasure, because red wine is next on our list of ways to increase sexual desire.
