Facing some issues in bed? Whether it’s men’s health or women’s health, it’s important to take note and make sure you stay in shape. Other than physical health, there are a number of factors which can kill your libido – smoking, medications and many more. However, one of the contributing factors we always tend to overlook is our dietary habits. Steer clear of these foods if you tend to consume them frequently!

#1. Cheese
Could you say no to cheese? Cheese is absolutely delicious. But being made from cow’s milk which might contain synthetic hormones, eating cheese can mess with the natural production of hormones in your body such as estrogen and testosterone. So, try to stay away from the heavenly smell of cheese, if you can.

#2. Sugar
Indulging your sweet tooth is firstly going to affect your health – such as running the risk of obesity, increasing blood sugar level and also the risk of heart disease. These are just some of the many potential health issues.
But did you know, sugar also reduces testosterone levels. In a study, guys aged from 19 to 74 were given 75g of sugar, twice the recommended daily intake for men. After consuming the sugar, their testosterone levels were tested and it showed a 25 percent decrease on average.
If you’re craving sugar, opt for fruits or other healthy snacks that contain naturally occurring sugar! However, if you need that sugar in your cup of coffee every morning, choose stevia instead of normal sugar as the stevia is derived from plants and it is 200 times sweeter than normal sugar! That means a lot less sugar is needed when you’re adding sugar to your coffee.

#3. Coffee
You must be surprised that coffee is on this list because coffee has its health benefits, such as increasing your endurance and stamina! This fact still stands – only if you do not get the jitters from coffee. For those who do, they would experience a lower sex drive. So if you are one of those who are sensitive to caffeine, try some other drinks in the morning such as Chai tea for a pick-me-up.

#4. Popcorn
One of the most common date ideas ever – movies with popcorn after dinner. But if you like to save some bucks and have microwaved popcorn at home while you’re watching a movie with your other half, it’s time to cut them out. Not because popcorn itself is bad, but because there are chemicals such as perfluorooctanoic acid found in the lining of the popcorn bag that can kill your sex drive. It could even cause prostate problems in the long run. Rest assured that normal popcorn sold at cinemas is fine as they’re freshly popped in the popcorn machine!

#5. Alcohol
We know how wine or other alcohol can get you in the mood, but if you drink frequently, it’ll do you more harm than good. Alcohol is a depressant which can jeopardise your libido – and it applies to both sexes! Next time when you drink, drink in a 2-to-1 ratio of water to alcoholic beverages.

#6. Canned soup
Who doesn’t love a warm bowl of canned soup on a lazy day at home? Readily available at the nearest supermarket, there’s a wide variety of flavours for you to choose from! However, did you know that they are high in sodium? This can lead to an increase in blood pressure, decreasing blood flow to other parts of the body, including your genitals!

#7. Mint
Having a fresh breath is crucial, but too much mint might not give you any further benefit than just a fresh breath as the menthol in the mint will decrease your testosterone levels, killing your libido.

#8. Beetroot
It is one of the most nutritious and delicious vegetables on the market, but sadly it doesn’t benefit your performance in bed. Beetroot contains compounds that boost estrogen levels, so it’s good for females. For males, though it does not decrease or increase the testosterone levels, eating too much beetroot might cause a hormonal imbalance.
