Healthy eating leads to a healthy sex lifePosted Sep 26th 2006 11:03AM by Sarah J. GimFiled under: Books, How To, New Products, Health & MedicalIf you've been ignoring all the tips, tricks, news and wagging fingers from your friends and family about eating healthier, maybe this will change your mind about adding dark green leafy vegetables and fiber to your diet. According to health psychologist Lynn Edlen-Nezin and Robert Fried, authors of the book Great Food, Great Sex, the healthier your diet, the better your sex life. Edlen-Nezin says that because the "plumbing is all connected, everything that's good for your heart is good for your sexual health."So what do they recommend? Everything that's been touted for cardiovascular health is good for sexual health because they contribute in some way to blood-flow through the body: fruits, vegetables, lean meats, whole grains, and anti-oxidant rich foods. Just don't expect high performance after dinner of grilled chicken breast on a bed of blackberries, walnuts, and wheatberries. We know there's no such thing as instant magic.
