Aphrodisiac foods are generally categorized or get their name as ‘love foods’ on the basis of their shape, aroma, or their chemical composition. These foods are thought to cause a sexual anxiety and increase libido in a person (both males and females) after ingestion or after smelling them. More than physical it has strong psychological impacts on a mind of a person which helps to increase his libido.
Scientific backups to support all the claims of these aphrodisiac foods are lacking, thus more researches are required in this field.
A list of some of the aphrodisiac or love foods include avocado, asparagus, aniseeds, almonds, asafetida, basil, broccoli, bananas, chocolate, coffee, cilantro, carrots, figs, ginger, garlic, ginseng, honey, nutmeg, mustard, oysters, licorice root, papaya, pineapple, strawberries, raspberries, and wine. All these foods have a different effect on the body and are believed to increase the libido of a person.
Besides foods there are certain scents which can evoke romantic desires in a person, these include lavender, rose scent, smell of cheese pizza, buttered popcorn or pumpkin pie helps in stimulation.
