Green Vegetables For Better Sex
Posted: Monday, February 12, 2007
By: Donna Sonkin H.H.C., A.A.D.P.


The entire green equaling horny idea was laid to rest for many years until I began studying at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. Dr. Andrew Weil guest lectured about his methods for reaching optimum health. As he waxed poetic about the wonders of broccoli, passionately deeming it a super food, I had an epiphany. Evangeline the school slut was on to something! A huge smile swept across my face as I made the connection. “The green ones really do make you horny!” I said to myself with glee. I put all of the pieces of the puzzle together with my twisted lascivious mind and now I will break it down for you.

Yes, the green ones really do make you horny!!!

Green vegetables fortify the blood with a tremendous amount of powerhouse nutrients that when eaten correctly can be absorbed by the body up to 100%! Sure we all want to be healthy but most of us would not mind vibrant health and the label of “Sexual dynamo” to boot. An erection, in the simplest terms, is blood flowing to the penis! Suffice it to say, the stronger the blood, the stronger the erection. “Sex is really about circuitry.” States Dr. Barbara Bartlik, Assistant Professor of Psychiatry and Sex Therapy at the human sexuality program, Weill Cornell Medical Center, Dr. Bartlik recommends reaching for foods high in the amino acids: walnuts, green vegetables, root vegetables, and garlic, to name a few.

Insufficient blood flow is a major cause of incomplete erections in men. The amino acid L-Arginine has been shown to improve blood flow to the genital area by dilating blood vessels and helping the penis to enlarge to its full capacity, thus increasing the size, hardness and frequency of erections. Oh goodie!

L-Arginine has a similar effect in women. Higher blood flow makes clitoral and vaginal tissues more sensitive and responsive to sexual stimulation, and helps increase the possibility of reaching orgasm. Here’s an idea: For your next romantic dinner, order a side of kale, say “check please” and test out this theory.

A large part of sexual function is ruled by the endocrine glands, which secrete various hormones that directly affect sexual and reproductive function. These hormones have precise nutritional needs, including B vitamins, Zinc, and Vitamin E, which can be found in spinach (.44mgs. per cup of B complex), broccoli (1 cup has 94mgs. Of B-6) collard greens (1 cup has 41mgs. Of B-5), asparagus (.76 mgs. of Zinc), Swiss chard (1 cup has 3.31 mgs of Vitamin E). In addition, greens are packed with Chlorophyll, which acts as a natural deodorizer. Once ingested, the green ones keep you smelling and tasting fresh and delicious too.
