Valentine's Food That Helps in Romance

I know it's quite embarrassing but in reality, most couples consider Valentine's Day to be a great opportunity to rekindle the flames in their relationships. It's no wonder that couples will try their best into leading the love into the bedroom for a steamy climax after a very special day. With that said, there are certain foods that can help you achieve this goal, and I hope to contribute some knowledge about these aphrodisiacs in this article.First and foremost, let's talk about the term aphrodisiac and what is it exactly. Well, to put it bluntly, an aphrodisiac is something that arouses our libido. It takes forms in a variety of ways. It can be something that entices the scent, the vision and even the taste. In this case, we're going to focus on taste; particular foods that will get the eater both hot and steamy, but in a good way.So if you're going to prepare Valentine's food in February 14 and if you're going the direction of more romance afterwards, consider preparing food that will wow your sweetheart both in mind and body. For couples who have already been married for a couple of years, adding these ingredients into the mix of foods will help rekindle the fading romance you may once had when you were still newlyweds.First in the list are oysters. Even in the past, oysters had been used frequently to initiate sexual desire among couples. Its hard shell makes it a challenge to open and eat, but nevertheless, many who know the effect of oysters tough it out in order to turn on the charm. Oysters are mostly eaten raw right off the shell, but they can be cooked fried in batter too. In any case you'll want to eat them; they are very well known effective aphrodisiacs.Time and time again, chocolates fit perfectly as a Valentine's food. Now I think the main reason about that is because chocolates act as aphrodisiacs too. Dark chocolate is the type of chocolate you'll need for romance since it contains the largest percentage of cacao among chocolate types. Cacao produces those "feel good" endorphins that will help you get ready for some action in bed. Even ancient people had since used and indulge in cacao drinks before spending nights of lovemaking.Hot spices like peppers are also included in our list of aphrodisiacs. It's no wonder why when we eat hot food, our whole body sometimes feel the heat too while the food goes down our stomachs. The substance responsible for this reaction to the body is called capsaicin, which is contained in hot peppers. It helps speed up metabolism in the body after causing a thermogenic reaction that heat up the senses. Now, that will help steam up the evening much better, right?Now, even if you can only implement one or two of these aphrodisiacs in your prepared Valentine's food, just make sure that you top the dinner off with some alcohol like wine or champagne. No, I'm not saying you get drunk afterwards, just take some in enough to lower your inhibitions and give you a boost of self-confidence. I know that's a little rough, but this is for the sake of rekindling the romantic flame. And on the other hand, alcohol is a great excuse for you to have some fun, so even for just this day, let your feelings get the better of you.There are plenty other aphrodisiacs that can serve well as your Valentine's food in February 14. If some ingredient triggers your senses in a good way, most probably it is one of those. Feel free to use these aphrodisiacs to get both of you in the mood for a perfect and fun Valentine's evening.February 14 is definitely a very perfect day when you can cook some Valentine's food for your special someone.
