Aphrodisiacs were first sought out as a remedy for various sexual anxieties including fears of inadequate performance as well as a need to increase fertility. Procreation was an important moral and religious issue and aphrodisiacs were sought to insure both male and female potency.
Aphrodisiac food has been a part of human history for thousands of years. From the ancient Aztecs and the grand Roman Empire to our current technologically advanced culture, people have long regarded specific foods as libido enhancers. From Cupid's arrow to Spanish fly, world cultures are infused with the lore 每 and the lure 每 of ways to stimulate, increase and prolong sexual ardor.
Despite long-standing literary and popular interest in aphrodisiacs, almost no scientific studies have been conducted on them. Most writings on the subject are little more than unscientific compilations of traditional or folkloric material. Foods are revered as an aphrodisiac for different reasons. Asparagus is considered an aphrodisiac simply for its phallic shape. Pine nuts have been used to stimulate the libido as far back as medieval times. They are rich in zinc, a key mineral for maintaining male potency. While these foods do not contain any chemical agents that affect a direct physiological reaction, one cannot deny the effects of a meal prepared with love. Chocolate and oysters, however, are a whole other story!
