Foods that raise libido

What do you make of this list? Especially the comments regarding honey and oatmeal? It states that oats contain a chemical that releases test in the body and that honey has boron which helps the body use estrogen. What is this all about?

The list is an ok one in theory.

There are, however, some issues with it when looking more closely:

Pomegranate is positive because it acts as a NO-agonist, which would certainly be vasodilatory; however - the blood sugar association with the actual juice in a society where over 75% harbor some sort of insulin resistance and its a vicious cycle with low test causing insulin resistance mind you or minimally suggested as a precursor to pre-diabetic scenarios, I am unsure this is so clear.

About boron - conspicuous by its absence is the notion that anything over 1mg supplemental per day could actually increase estrogen as well. The studied dose increasing both E and T was 2.5mg. Now, it also causes increasing progesterone-related post-menopausal sides in women as well, so I am unsure how I would employ this in say, the post-cycle and/or hypogonadal male with true suppression states, BUT it is hugely important for Vitamin D, copper, magnesium, and calcium metabolism - so that is why you cannot just throw various supplemental conglomerates together and call it a day.

Oatmeal also harbors the same issues as other items and so would honey in theory. Both do fit in some diets, but I think there rationale for suggesting them is solely because they are part of many person's bbing diet. That is not to mean anything more in this scenario than decreased fat would likely lend itself to increased libido in my estimation.

The highest testosterone-producing items from the food chain are fats and oils. Always have been, always will be yet they are left out; likely due to caloric density.

After having done CKD and now my mass building diet, I have to agree, the biggest libido boost comes from all those fats and oils. As well as that lean CKD figure, which does more for my libido than anything else, in my experience.

pushin carbs in a carb laden society, shocker.... I love the carbs aren't the enemy articles, theres a big "no sh!t" but most just don't read and develop the diet that works for them, they follow the diets that work for society and fail miserably, or have short-term success.
