The human body responds to the five senses of sight, sound, smell, taste, and touch, which the Italians, as usual, have turned into an art form, and in the videos in this series, you’ll be provided with some great ideas that’ll help stimulate your senses to a level that helps you appreciate why Italians love their food so much.
This video is the first that identifies four of 31 such foods and ingredients that help validate those 12 reasons why Italian food and ingredients are regarded as aphrodisiacs.
If you’re a follower of the vegan or vegetarian lifestyle, you’ll love this, because this video will cover 4 aphrodisiacs Italians love in the form of nuts, seeds and vegetables.
We’ll call these 4 aphrodisiacs the A-Team, and you’ll soon see why:
1. Almonds.
Since biblical times, almonds have been a symbol of fertility.
To this day, almonds play a role in wedding ceremonies, such as the throwing of candy-covered almonds as confetti.
However, almonds do have some real substance to them, as they’re rich in Omega-3 fatty acids – vital for producing testosterone, the hormone that aids the male sex drive.
2. Anise.
This is a seed that dates back to medieval Italy, and is thought to have both aphrodisiac and, anti-ageing qualities.
Anise contains oestrogenic compounds which induce similar effects in women, similar to the way testosterone impacts men.
Its flavour resembles that of aniseed or liquorice, so it’s no surprise that there are a number of aniseed liqueurs in southern and central Italy.
3. Artichokes.
These were introduced to Sicily by the Arabs, and were considered as enhancing sexual prowess and sex appeal.
Owing to the artichoke’s reputation as an erotic energy boost, women were forbidden to eat them!
Today, artichokes are recognised for their high antioxidant level and healthy nutrients, such as iron, a vital compound for maintaining a healthy body…. and a healthy sex life!
Nowadays, artichokes are added to salads, risottos, pasta dishes and even as a creamy spread on crostini.
And if you fancy an after-dinner drink, why not try the artichoke liqueur, pronounced ‘Cheenar’.
4. Asparagus.
In the 16th century, there was something known as the ‘Doctrine of Signatures’, which basically said that if a food item was reminiscent of a part of the body, then it will be good for that part of the body.
So, as asparagus supposedly looks phallic by nature, then it enhances that sexual part of the body!
That’s why it’s regarded as an aphrodisiac.
In addition, asparagus also contains:
(1) vitamin B, which increases histamine, which is good for a healthy libido in both sexes; and
(2) folate, which is important for reproduction in men and women.
So, if these four aphrodisiacs – the A-Team – have caught your imagination, then you’re in for a treat in the next video, where you’ll learn some fascinating stories about aphrodisiacs that are actually backed by science.
