If dinner precedes the “night of love”, it’s worth lightening it both in terms of food and alcohol. Maximum champagne in a symbolic amount, Oleg Gulko, a sexologist and psychotherapist at the Karpovka+ research and clinical center, told socialbites.ca.
“With regard to aphrodisiac products, science has found no confirmatory effect from them on the day of admission. But you can use them in a regular diet, as a healthy diet with vitamins and trace elements will always help keep the body in good shape. This will also help with sex,” said Gulko.
At the same time, according to the expert, aphrodisiacs also have exciting and stimulating properties. However, if the couple is planning their first sex after dinner, it is better to give preference to sedatives.
“As my clients’ stories show, if something goes wrong at a meeting like this, it’s a direct result of anxiety. Therefore, alcohol appeared in popular recommendations, as it can eliminate such experiences at the time of admission. For some, it can also prolong sexual intercourse, but this is not a guaranteed effect, ”explained the sexologist.
In addition, there are a number of risks associated with drinking alcohol for both men and women, including loss of erection, tenderness, and difficulty reaching orgasm.
“Alcohol as a way to help in these situations is not a very reliable ingredient because a lot depends on what kind of alcohol, its amount and the effect it has on a particular person. The main thing in such a dinner is the atmosphere, which helps to adapt to the next intimate mood. The main course at such a “dinner” will be an opportunity to taste each other and get real pleasure from it,” said the specialist.
Formerly sexologist Gulko saidMasturbation improves sleep, relieves stress and helps fight hangovers.
