How Micronutrients Pump Up Sex Drive?
While a variety of factors contribute to boosting sex drive in both men and women, some essential vitamins and minerals are most important to upkeep sex drive. Certain plant-based diets have the potential to increase orgasm in both males and females by increasing the blood flow to the sex organs, releasing histamines, and thus getting the body ready for pleasure. A diet rich in vitamins and minerals along with a dash of certain spices works amazingly well for your sexual urge.

Nitrates are found in celery, iceberg lettuce, beetroot, spinach, parsley, collard greens, and radishes. The nitrates are converted into nitric oxide in the body which causes ‘cause corpus cavernosum,’ a spongy erectile tissue in the blood vessel to relax and become filled with blood causing an erection.
Magnesium
Magnesium is another fabulous mineral to keep your sex hormones like testosterone, progesterone, and neurotransmitters like dopamine and epinephrine levels high by regulating the urge to have sex.
