Sexuality: Natural Sexuality Aphrodisiacs – Do They Work?

Researchers at the University of Guelph in Ontario, Canada, have done extensive review of dozens of studies investigating aphrodisiac powers. According to the results, reported in Live Science (livescience.com), substances with the most potential were Korean (red) ginseng and saffron.

Ginseng likely works in much the same way as does Viagra. Most probably, it relaxes muscles and improves blood flow to the genital region.

In addition, in animal studies, ginger, garlic, cloves, and nutmeg proved to be at least moderately effective. Aphrodisiacs are substances that increase sexual desire, or libido, and — possibly — enhance sexual pleasure.

“Sexuality is an integral part of the personality of every human being. Its full development depends upon the satisfaction of basic human needs such as the desire for contact, intimacy, emotional expression, pleasure, tenderness and love. Since health is a fundamental human right, so must sexual health be a basic human right. In order to assure that human beings and societies develop healthy sexuality, the following sexual rights must be recognized, promoted, respected and defended by all societies through all means.”

With this as the basis of its presentation, the participants in the 14th World Congress of Sexuality determined eleven (11) basic Sexual Rights. These eleven fundamental Sexual Rights are listed below.  As you read them, I want you to ask yourself, “How can this Right HELP me to improve my sexual health and satisfaction?  Write down any ideas or questions that come to mind as you read:
