If you love chocolate, you are in for a treat! Dark chocolate contains phenylethylamine, also known as the love drug, that helps boost the feel-good emotion in the body and naturally improves your sex drive. Make sure you consume at least 75% cacao to get the excitement flowing in the body. Also, the antioxidants and fiber in the chocolate feed the good bacteria in the gut and ensure better gut and overall health.

Apples are rich in quercetin which is a flavonoid that helps tackle erectile dysfunction and improves blood circulation for better sexual performance. Apples also boost gut health with the help of pectin which works as a prebiotic and boosts the production of gut bacteria in the gut.
