On the other hand, the pleasant and appetizing flavor of some foods is responsible for the release of endorphins, which allows the person to relax and experience a pleasure that can also stimulate another type of appetite.<\/p>\n<p>When we talk about aphrodisiac foods we always think of those usual three \/ four that are considered as such in different cultures, which are, to name a few, oysters, chili peppers, truffles and chocolate.<br \/>\nBut in many cultures and traditions there are other foods that are invested with this particular power and that are, for the most part, unsuspected.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Avocado<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" style=\"max-width: 100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/demo.ilpatriarca.it\/public\/Files\/rif000002\/96\/avocado.jpg\" alt=\"avocado\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Avocado has been considered a sinful fruit since ancient times because of its shape: in 5000 BC, in fact, the Aztecs associated it with male genitalia.<\/p>\n<p>Exported to Europe around the eighteenth century, it became inevitable on the table of Louis XV, who apparently found the secret of libido in avocado.<\/p>\n<p>We come to the concrete facts: avocado contains precious essential fatty acids, such as Omega-3, capable of preserving the health of the heart and arteries, also ensuring the proper functioning of the microcirculation, which is fundamental at the level of the genitals for a healthy sexual life.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Asparagus<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" style=\"max-width: 100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/demo.ilpatriarca.it\/public\/Files\/rif000002\/96\/asparagi.jpg\" alt=\"asparagi\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The exploitation of the aphrodisiac power of this vegetable, which also has an evocative form, has very ancient origins: in France, in the nineteenth century, asparagus was served to boyfriends the day before the wedding, with the hope that they would intensify the sexual desire.<br \/>\nScience tells us, however, that asparagus contains a high amount of vitamin B, which increases the production of histamine, a fundamental molecule for increasing libido.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Parmigiano<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" style=\"max-width: 100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/demo.ilpatriarca.it\/public\/Files\/rif000002\/96\/parmigiano-reggiano.jpg\" alt=\"parmigiano reggiano\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This Italian cheese, one of the most famous in the world, owes its reputation as an aphrodisiac to its high nutritional value. The improvement of sexual activity is linked to free amino acids such as tyrosine, closely linked to libido and responsible for an increase in
