I went vegan to improve my sex life – now I romp EVERY DAY and have longer orgasms thanks to these diet hacks 0 419

MORE than a THIRD of us are interested in switching to a plant-based diet and more than two million have signed up to Veganuary – spending this month on a vegan diet.

While many believe ditching meat, eggs and dairy sounds miserable and unhealthy, one 34-year-old Sun writer tells how the diet helped more than just animals and the environment . . .

How going vegan can enhance your sex life and lead to longer orgasmsShutterstock

AFTER chowing down on a dozen oysters with a hot, spicy dressing, I was hoping to get saucy with my boyfriend in bed.

After all, the humble shellfish has long been hailed as a natural aphrodisiac. But as minutes rolled into hours, I felt nothing and the evening ended up a bit of a damp squib.

If truth be told, I’d felt more turned on after watching an episode of Antiques Roadshow. That was the last time I ate shellfish — or anything else fishy, dairy or meat-based — and I’ve not looked back since.

For the past six months I’ve been vegan, and the plant-based diet has improved more than just my waistline. My energy levels, and libido, have soared, and with it, my desire for sex.

I went from begrudgingly doing it a few times a month in the boring, spooning position after a heavy, meaty dinner to doing it most days.

Not only do our sessions now last longer, but so do my orgasms. My partner, who used to eat red meat most days, has also reported a boost between the sheets and has become a better lover too.

We’ve also shifted a few pounds, which means we have more energy for more rigorous sessions in the sack. Put simply, I believe vegans make better, more considerate lovers.

And that’s not just my opinion, it’s backed by science. Many vegan foods boost blood circulation, which increases our chances of orgasm, as there’s more blood flow down below.

Leafy greens, figs, pumpkin seeds, cayenne pepper, dark chocolate and almonds are all packed with vitamin B and zinc, which raise testosterone levels and sexual desire, increasing our appetite for sex.

Meat, eggs and dairy are high in cholesterol and saturated animal fat, which can clog our arteries and slow the flow of blood to our nether regions — leading to male impotence.

If fellas want lift-off they should combine exercise with a diet rich in flavonoids, found in fruits such as strawberries, blueberries and apples.

This could reduce their risk of developing erectile dysfunction by more than 20 per cent, according to a study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.

What’s more, research shows ditching meat and dairy can boost our level of serotonin, the happy hormone that puts us in the mood for love.

And while it’s no secret that scent and sexual arousal go hand-in-hand, another study showed that those who follow a plant-based diet smelled better than those who ate meat and dairy, increasing their sex appeal.

LENGTHENED ORGASMS

Today, more than a third of people in the UK are interested in becoming vegan, and the desire to go green is reflected on the high street.

No longer do vegans have to go to hippy shops to get grub, we can go to any supermarket and find a big range catering just for us. Even KFC now has a vegan burger.

The market is getting bigger and better, making it easier for those who want to go plant-based.

Because of this, Veganuary 2022 is expected to have more participants turning vegan than in any previous year, and I can guarantee they will improve more than just their health.

After all, better sex doesn’t start in the bedroom, it starts in the kitchen . . .  on your plate.

These are the five foods you should be eating to boost your sex driveNot only do our sessions now last longer, but so do my orgasms, says Georgette Culley

Green nibbles to get you in the mood

TOFU: During menopause many women experience a decline in their sex drive. Soybeans are one of the richest foods in phytoestrogens, which mimic our own oestrogens, which can boost lower levels of oestrogen and our libido.

QUINOA: The whole grain can help regulate hormone levels and boost libido. It’s high in protein which is needed for testosterone production.

FENUGREEK: Introducing the herb into your diet could boost your sex drive by a quarter. Try adding it to a homemade curry with lots of veggies to reap the rewards.

BASIL: The humble herb boosts female fertility and stimulates sex drive. Best used fresh but dried is fine too.

POMEGRANATE: A daily drink of pomegranate juice Increases sexual desire can improve your mood, blood circulation and raise your testosterone levels.

My view as a life-long carnivore

By Simon Boyle

I’M all for a bit of a healthy start this New Year, but let’s not get silly about it.

Go for a jog if you must, cut out the lunchtime pints, but spare me the lectures – and definitely don’t tell me you’re going to feel ten times randier for it.

Because we all know there’s nothing that fires up the pelvic engines like a solid steak and chips washed down by a decent bottle of red – a tried and tested formula that has served red-blooded males well for generations.

While a vegan meal would leave me wilting like the lettuce leaves on my plate, a hearty red meat feast is all the energy I need to start contemplating “afters”.

What better than slouching into bed together for a bit of marathon romp after a decent portion of sirloin – better yet if it was an indulgent meal for two – and don’t worry about the calories, here’s the perfect chance to burn them straight off.

So save your sleep-inducing salads, and ditch the passion-killing kale this January – fill up on meat and enjoy something truly satisfying.

Supporting Ukraine Through Purchasing Power: The Initiatives Keeping the Country’s Economy Afloat 0 173

Amidst the Russian invasion, Ukrainian creatives are launching initiatives to keep the country’s economy going by harnessing consumer power. Spend With Ukraine is one such online resource that connects consumers to Ukraine-based businesses across various industries, while the Ukrainian Emergency Art Fund allows for donations to support artists. Co-founder of Spend With Ukraine, Andrey Klen, emphasizes the importance of supporting the Ukrainian economy through purchasing decisions. He states, “Armies win battles, but economies win wars.”

Ukrainian brands are still operating and many are donating a portion of their sales to different needs to support the country. To sustain interest in supporting Ukraine through spending, increasing the visibility of these initiatives is key. As Klen says, “We want it to blow out.” These efforts not only help Ukrainian creatives but also support existing industries and provide a sense of normality in these difficult times.

Ensuring Safety and Consent in the Adult Film Industry: A Vital Discussion 0 259

One topic that may be of interest to readers in the adult film industry is the topic of workplace safety and consent.

The adult film industry, like any other industry, has a responsibility to ensure the safety and well-being of its workers. This includes providing a safe working environment, protecting workers from physical and emotional harm, and ensuring that all acts are consensual. However, the nature of the adult film industry can make it difficult to ensure that these standards are met. Actors and actresses may feel pressure to perform acts that they are not comfortable with, and there have been instances of abuse and exploitation in the industry.

To address these issues, it is essential for the industry to have clear guidelines and policies in place to protect the rights and safety of workers. This includes providing education and resources for performers, implementing strict consent protocols, and holding producers and directors accountable for ensuring a safe working environment.

Another important aspect of this topic is the importance of consent in adult film. Consent is a crucial aspect of any sexual encounter and must be obtained freely, enthusiastically, and without coercion. In the adult film industry, where performers are engaging in sexual acts on camera, it is especially important that consent is explicitly obtained and respected. This can be achieved through the use of consent forms and communication between performers before and during filming.

By discussing these topics, the industry can work towards creating a safer and more respectful environment for all performers and ensure that the rights and well-being of workers are protected.
