If You've Got a Diminished Libido, You Need to Read This

Are you feeling a distinct lack of libido? If you are, you could have a vitamin B deficiency, which could also be affecting your energy in general. You can get the vitamin B you need from foods such as poultry, beef, eggs, and green leafy vegetables. With that being said, a lack of libido can be down to deficiencies in other areas. Here are 9 ways to make your libido soar:
 
1. Vitamin B

Add more poultry, beef, eggs and green leafy vegetables to your diet if you happen to have a vitamin B deficiency. You could have a vitamin B deficiency in your body if you have fatigue, anemia or a weakened immune system.
2. Antioxidants

Antioxidants, which can be found in large concentrations in nuts (in the form of vitamins A and E), can help boost energy, blood circulation, and cell growth. Many healthy foods like fruits, vegetables, and grains also include high concentrations of antioxidants.
3. Zinc

This mineral is highly present in a food that’s often associated with sex, namely oysters. This aphrodisiac will definitely give you your spark once again.
4. Selenium

Yet another mineral that’s important for libido is selenium. It’s found naturally in nuts, beef, tuna, and grains. Just make sure that you don’t eat too much of it, because it could affect your heart, kidneys, and liver if you do.
5. L-arginine

L-arginine supplements are supposed to increase the blood flow to the vaginal area in women, but studies in this regard are still in their infancy.
 
6. Omega-3 fatty acids

This compound is found in abundance in oily fish such as salmon. It improves blood circulation and symptoms of depression. Being in a good state of mind and having healthy blood flow are both important components of sexual health, so be sure that you get plenty of omega-3.
7. Be mindful of special supplements

Contrary to popular belief, there are no magic pills to boost your libido. The best ways to have a healthy libido are to eat healthily, exercise, meditate, stretch, relax, laugh, and play.
8. Eat some apple pie spices!

The spices that make apple pie so delicious, such as nutmeg and cinnamon, will have a great effect on your libido. The smell of cinnamon will put you in the mood, and eating nutmeg has been found to improve sexual performance in mice.
