Some snacks are the perfect aphrodisiac, but others can put a stop to your night altogether. Avoid these mood-busting culprits.
5 Foods To Avoid Before Having Sex
Coffee
Too much caffeine raises your cortisol levels, which is the stress hormone. High amounts make it more difficult for your body to relax and lower your libido.
Anything too salty (think French fries or movie popcorn)
Blood flow is what makes orgasm possible, and too much salt will make it more difficult to get to that point.
Fruits
Avoid them, especially post-meal. Fruit digests really quickly a lot more quickly than anything you could possibly eat. It can lead to cramping, gas, and general discomfort, symptoms you don’t want to experience before getting it on.
Alcohol
Ever noticed as soon as a frisky couple has a few drinks and hops into bed, one of them falls asleep almost immediately? It’s not just a plot point: Wine and beer increase your levels of melatonin, which is also known as the sleep hormone. In fact, one glass can also cause erectile difficulties, inhibit orgasms, and increase your partner’s chances of premature ejaculation.
Carbonated beverages
If you’re sensitive to carbonation, stay away from tonic water and sodas. Belching is the last thing you want to do during a romantic night.
