Foods to Love When You’re in Love: Paleo Aphrodisiacs

Aphrodisiac – a substance that increases sexual desire

Valentine’s Day is almost here.  And if you aren’t a member of the ‘single and bitter’ crowd (that would be me…), then it’s highly likely you’ve been bitten by the ‘love bug’.  And while from a scientific standpoint there is no real backing for the efficacy of the aphrodisiac; there is something to be said for the ‘placebo effect’.

Just for fun here are some paleo friendly foods that just might help you ‘get your groove on’…

• Oysters – Discover what’s hiding in that shell...
• Bananas – No need for me to elaborate…
• Pomegranates – Brimming with ‘seeds of passion’.
• Artichokes – Eat your ‘heart’ out!
• Salmon – Can you say ‘O’(mega)-3 fats
• Hot Chilies – Spice is NICE!! (Watch the seeds in these ‘hotties’ or this could end badly…)
• Watermelon – Sweet, juicy and wet – it’s a ‘Triple Play’.
• Avocados – Soft and creamy.  Kinda dreamy…
• Asparagus – Do you have a ‘stalk’er?
• Chocolate - Melt, dip, drizzle – add some ‘sizzle’…

If nothing else I hope you smiled!  Happy Valentine’s Day!!
