Men struggling with sexual performance should stop ‘whining’ and, instead, pour a glass of wine.
A recent study has revealed that moderate consumption of red wine can enhance male sexual performance. Yep, contrary to popular belief, red wine can help with erectile dysfunction, boost testosterone levels, and improve male fertility.
The study also highlighted the positive effects of red wine on female sexual function. Moderate consumption of one to two glasses a day showed higher scores for sexual desire and vaginal lubrication in women compared to teetotalers.
The secret? Polyphenols, which are powerful antioxidants that improve the function of the heart and blood vessels. By increasing blood flow throughout the body, including the sexual organs, red wine can improve sexual performance.
Interestingly, the study found that older women tended to benefit more from red wine consumption, as they were more likely to be moderate drinkers. This correlation was intriguing since age usually inversely correlates with sexual function.
Polyphenols also play a crucial role in preventing oxidative stress, which can damage cells and lead to various health problems such as cancer, heart disease, and stroke.
So, next time you’re looking to spice things up in the bedroom, pour yourself a glass of red wine!
