Food – wine and oil among seduction food

Open discussion about different kinds of food considered as aphrodisiac, while some claim that it is our mind that associates this seductive skill to certain kind of food, made of odours, colours, images, fantasies. These elements are traditionally, considered as powerfully aphrodisiac. Spices: the coriander, that seems to have aphrodisiac effects especially on women, while the nutmeg is more effective on men. The saffron and pepper own stimulating properties, the ginger, natural powerful stimulant, the vanilla fighting against sexual insanity and having good effects on the nervous system and thanks to its sweet and sensual perfume, stimulates sex . Anice has always been considered aphrodisiac since the time of ancient Romans.
Delicacies: cocoa and chocolate, in fact, are rich in polyphenols, anti-age products with some effects on the blood: they own also theobromine and feniletamine, hormones produced by our body during the phase of love thanks to which the so-called Gods’ food can give the same pleasant sensations as a human being in love. Dressings: the extra virgin olive oil has a powerful action due to Vitamin E favouring the blood circulation and it is vasodilator “ the daily dose-the expert Giulio Scatolini from Umbria- is 10 mg, a spoonful of oil with better performance with the varieties “Moraiolo” ( Umbria-Toscana-Lazio) and “ coratina” (Apulia). It is also a natural anti-inflammatory and it does not cause any friction or abrasion”.
Specialties: the truffle contains androstendiolo, a hormone which belongs to human sweat. Even fish and crustaceans have been recognized as aphrodisiac by science, due to a general improvement of the blood circulation that is to say the capacity of sexual excitement. Instead fish owes his aphrodisiac fame to the omega 3, fatty acids which increase the blood flux and to Iodine stimulating thyroid and consequently, the production of hormones. Wine: according to a recent research of the University of Florence,one of more glasses of red wine are associated with sexual pleasure.
