Male Enhancement
Bananas are rich in potassium which reduces sodium in the body. Sodium causes the body to retain water which decreases blood flow. Decreased blood flow in turn decreases libido. Bananas are a powerful and natural way to combat erectile dysfunction.
Blueberries and Cherries are among the best sources of antioxidants which increase the production of nitric oxide – a key factor in male sexual satisfaction.
Ginger is rich in antioxidant and anti-inflammatory nutrients that enhance blood flow and the sensitivity of nerve endings.
Watermelon is a rich source of the amino acid citrulline which converts to nitric oxide and stimulates the flow of blood.
Foods that Harm the Sexual Experience for Men & Women
Processed Sugar is not only unhealthy, it diminishes testosterone in men, thus lowering male libido.
Trans Fats are so unhealthy that they are now banned by the FDA. One of their effects is decreased blood flow which diminishes sexual ability in women and men. Trans fats are still found in many junk foods.
Canned Foods are lined with ‘BPA,’ a substance which, in high amounts cause erectile dysfunction. Look for "PBA FREE" labels on cans.
Soy lowers libido in men by diminishing testosterone.
Salt in large amounts causes erectile dysfunction which even medication cannot undo.
Alcohol diminishes inhibition and lessens stress, but too much decreases sexual performance and sensation.
Alkaline balance is very important for our health. Our enzymatic, immunologic, and repair mechanisms all function their best in an alkaline environment. Juicing with our raw foods can help reverse the damage.
The human body has three ways of regulating blood pH. Carbon dioxide, is mildly acidic; its levels can be controlled by changes in your breathing rate. For example, when we exercise we produce lactic acid and carbon dioxide. Lactic acid is acidic, and the exhalation of carbon dioxide excretes acids. The kidneys also can excrete excess acid during urination. Finally, the blood is filled with special chemical mixes known as buffers, which work by resisting any sudden changes in pH.
Everything we eat or drink affects our pH. Animal based foods such as meat and dairy products are mainly acidic, while plant-based foods like fruits and veggies are mostly alkaline. We do need both acid and alkaline foods in our diet to help our bodies maintain appropriate pH levels, though our culture with the convince of fast-foods and overly processed foods have made the majority of us overly acid. We design our cleanses to realkalize your body.
