10 Common Foods That Don’t Get You ‘In the Mood’

…Have you ever thought of the fact that food might impact the way you perform your intimate activity? 

I think we all know that food has a high impact on our day-to-day lives. For example, you can’t expect to look fit and firm if you work out regularly, but you only eat junk food.

Think about the moment when you want to eat something sweet, but you know that a few hours later, you’ll have a major crash and you’ll get tired and unmotivated real quick.

The same rule applies when it comes to intimacy as well. At the end of the day, this is a physical activity and you need fuel, but the right kind, in order to have a good performance.

We were curious about this topic, so we had a chat with a few nutritionists to find out more about it. With that being said, here are 10 common foods that don’t get you ‘in the mood’.

1. Cornflakes in the evening

Even though cornflakes are delicious food for breakfast, they are very high in sugar, which is not good for your special activity. You can still eat them, but in the morning, so the sugars have time to be digested and your performance won’t be affected.

If you consume them in the evening, you are more likely going to have a sugar spike, which causes a press in your blood cells, and furthermore, you won’t perform as you would want to.

2. Canned food

Even though it might be more convenient to grab some canned food and quickly eat it before your special night, you should actually stay away from it.

That is because it contains a lot of sodium, which will minimize blood flowing all over your body and it will also decrease your potassium levels.

As a result, you will end up losing your strength and your night won’t be very pleasant. Stick to eating healthy and don’t exaggerate with the salt!

3. Carbonated water

Even though you might like it, don’t drink it before you go into the bedroom! This beverage contains a chemical called quinine, which acts as an inhibitor when it comes to physical activity.

If you don’t want to be like a dead fish, make sure to stick to regular water!

4. Artificial sweeteners

According to several nutritionists, all fabricated sugars contain Aspartame, which will minimize the serotonin levels in your body. This chemical is the main “ingredient” that your body relies on when it comes to charisma, mindset, brain, and overall intimate life.

If your body doesn’t have enough serotonin, you can experience migraines, pessimism, and zero desire to have fun with someone special!

5. Mint

There are many people who want to have a fresh breath before the big event, so they chew some peppermint-flavored gums or indulge in one or two mint drops.

However, several studies discovered that the menthol in peppermint is actually not good for your “masculinity” levels, so better stay away from peppermint. If you want something to keep your mouth fresh, you can eat a tiny piece of ginger.

6. Sodas

Sodas contain two of the things you should stay away from before you engage in any special activity with someone: sugar and bubbles. Even though you might think you feel better after consuming it, soda is actually not very beneficial for any bedroom time.

That is because it will make you more dehydrated, create dental pits, and it can make you feel gassy and stiff.

7. Licorice Tea

If you thought that licorice tea might help you reach your performance goals, you are actually wrong, because this tea contains some ingredients that can decrease your overall drive and desire. If you want to drink something that might help you, try green tea or black tea.

8. Alcohol

This one is controversial because there are many people who say that their performance increased due to alcohol consumption, while others stated that they felt sleepy and tired after drinking a few glasses.

Drinking too much alcohol before going into the bedroom can make men feel numb and neither of the partners will enjoy the activity. If you still want to consume something before this, make sure to stick to one or two drinks tops!

9. Cheese

Even though almost everyone loves cheese, it is better to limit your consumption if you want to impress your partner. That is because the majority of cheeses are made of cow milk, which has been treated with anti-microbial and artificial development chemicals.

This means that eating too much cheese can get you out of the mood or make you lazier in bed. Don’t worry, you can eat cheese afterwards!

10. Coffee

Coffee is great and delicious, but too much of it can do more harm than good! For instance, drinking 5 to 6 cups of espresso daily can damage your adrenal organs.

As a result, your organs will have to suffer, and their job will take longer. Besides that, too much caffeine can make pressure chemicals, which are not very healthy for you.

The sad thing is that you won’t be a very entertaining partner, but actually a jittery and anxious one. If you don’t want this to happen to you, make sure to stick to only 1 or 2 cups of espresso per day.
