4 Smoothies To Naturally Jumpstart Your Libido

Sometimes it takes a little bit of a boost for the libido to get going, and for some, popping a pill to become excited is a regular requirement. While man-made sexual supplements have been proven to enhance sexual function, there are natural ways to boost the libido by using foods that contain vitamins and nutrients known to naturally increase desire. If you’re looking for a natural way to boost your libido, check out these four tasty recipes to get your morning started right and give your sex drive the spark it needs.

Banana Booster

Two things come to mind when one thinks of bananas: smiles and of course penises. Bananas are an aphrodisiac, providing long-term energy and stamina as well as stimulating the production of serotonin, which helps improve sleep and elevate mood. Adding chia seeds into the mix transforms this smoothie into an energy tonic that moistens yin energy (feminine). Beyond these benefits, this dairy-free smoothie is jam packed with the feel-good chemical dopamine, along with zinc, magnesium and vitamin B6, all shown to have effects on improving mood.

Blend the first three ingredients until smooth, add the remaining ingredients, blend and serve. This recipe serves one.

¼ c raw cashews
2 pitted dates
1¼ c water
1 frozen banana
1 Tbsp chia seeds
Handful ice
