At first glance, food and sex are just primitive human desires and needs, but they actually make our lives more enjoyable and undoubtedly affect our health.
These two processes have a lot in common: they are normal and exotic, they have their secrets, the flight of fantasy knows no bounds, and so does the degree of enjoyment.
Of course, the long absence of both has an adverse effect on the body.
Let's look together at more common points between food and sex and see if the menu determines the results in bed.
Scientists have found a close link between health, nutrition and sex. All processes in the body are interconnected, but irreplaceable. Because the euphoria of sexual intercourse resembles that of eating delicious food, many people try to replace intimate contact with eating. Often, due to the presence of some worries and complexes in the intimate life, refined and high-calorie foods are resorted to. The result is more than clear - the accumulation of extra pounds.
Although similar, these pleasures are not interchangeable.
In addition, regular sex is not always a guarantee of weight loss, although this view is widespread. Of course, sex is an excellent exercise that requires a certain amount of calories. During intimate "training" breathing, heart rate increases, body temperature rises and about 250-300 calories per hour are burned. In fact, the secret lies not in melting calories, but in normalizing a person's mental state, because with a regular and full intimate life you will not feel the need to overeat with all sorts of treats.
If the cause of overweight is not so, it is probably related to your eating habits, sedentary lifestyle and endocrine diseases. In this case, seek the help of a specialist.
Rational nutrition is popular today. Many people are increasingly turning to plant products, in particular vegetables, which, in addition to being useful for our general health, are also of great importance for our sexual abilities.
If you are used to eating a lot in the evening, then you will probably have to give up sex before bed because the body will use its energy to process food.
Food is able to activate sexuality and this is nothing new to anyone. Different peoples offer their sexual recipes and products, the variety of which is really huge. We suggest you see some of them, for men and women, respectively.
Limit alcohol and pasta.
Add herbs and spices to all dishes, which improve the taste of the food and give it a unique aroma.
Enjoy life and good appetite! The most important thing is not to turn breakfast, lunch and dinner into a boring routine.
