Damiana

The Damiana leaves have a long-standing reputation for possessing remarkable aphrodisiac properties. They are obtained from a small aromatic shrub of the Turneraceae plant family that can grow up to two meters in height. The shrub bears small yellow flowers that bloom in summer and then small fruits that taste similar to figs. Damiana is a natural aphrodisiac also used in herbal medicine, in two species, Tumera and Tumera aphrodisiaca. Both species are native to the southwest United States, Mexico, and Central America.

For centuries, ancient peoples of Mexico and Central America, including the Maya and Aztecs, have used Damiana leaves not only as an aphrodisiac but also as a tonic to improve their overall health. In fact, it is believed that the ancient Maya used the herb to focus sexual energies.

Research on its composition has found that the main components of Damiana leaves and stems are volatile oils, flavonoids, gonzalitosina, arbutin, tannin, and damianin. In addition to these, Damiana also contains essential oils, cyanogenic glycosides, thymol, and traces of phosphorus. Some studies have shown that consuming the plant helps with better digestion and brings more oxygen to the genital areas. Therefore, this helps men achieve erection more easily and maintain it for longer periods. Furthermore, consistent use of Damiana leads to increased sensitivity in erotic areas, particularly the genitals, which in turn can help a person experience greater sexual pleasure.

Cacao

Cacao possesses substances that influence our moods, energy, and sexual function in truly extraordinary ways, in fact, it also has fantastic benefits for heart health.

A 2004 study found that men who regularly consumed cacao had better performance in the bedroom compared to men who consumed little or none. This could be due to the fact that this substance reduces stress levels by increasing serotonin and dopamine. Furthermore, other studies suggest that the reason is that cacao increases blood flow and relaxes blood vessels. Cacao also contains theobromine, an alkaloid similar to caffeine, and phenylethylamine, a chemical believed to create a feeling of peace and love.

Cacao contains histamine, which facilitates pleasure for both men and women, phenylalanine, an amino acid associated with exciting nerve toning, phenylethylamine, an aromatic amine that activates central pleasure-related neurotransmitters, and finally theobromine, a stimulating alkaloid on the central nervous system similar to caffeine.

To take advantage of the effects of theobromine, present in the shells of cacao beans, making a decoction of them could be useful. To benefit from the properties of the other substances, cacao powder or even chocolate with a high percentage of cacao can be used.
