Non Herbal Aphrodisiacs

When it comes to aphrodisiacs, herbs and tea are nowhere NEAR the end all be all. There are actually a wide variety of foods, beverages, and MORE that can help to set the mood.

Essential Oils

Essential oils are said to have mood-boosting, stress-reducing, and energy-increasing properties depending on the oil. Once you know which of these factors- mood, stress, or lack of energy- is most greatly affecting your libido, essential oils can be a great natural remedy to help get things back on track.

Dark Chocolate

And what could be more romantic than sharing a box of dark chocolates? But that's beside the point. The cacao bean, which is used to make chocolate, contains a compound that has been shown to increase levels of the “love hormone” oxytocin.

Hot Chilis

Certain chilis contain a substance called capsaicin that increases blood flow and testosterone levels and also stimulates production of your happy hormones. In other words, chilis "stoke the furnace" a tad. ;)

And then there are oysters, which are rich in zinc, a mineral essential for sexual health in both men AND women.

Of course, you can’t forget about alcohol. While too much can diminish libido, a glass or two of wine can help to relax both the body and mind and allow space for intimacy to enter the scene.

Final Thoughts

So next time you’re looking for a little bit of extra help in the bedroom, remember this libido tea recipe as well as all of the other remedies mentioned above.

And if you try a libido tea and it doesn't do the trick, move on to something else! Keep experimenting until you find the thing that DOES. You (and your partner) will be so glad you did! Goodluck and Cheers!
