in 1590 a Jesuit priest, Jose de Acosta  warned that the chile plant was "prejudicial to the health of young folks, chiefly  to the soul, for it provokes to lust".

Capsaicin stimulates our nerve endings, raising our pulse and making us sweat. Some researchers believe that eating hot foods also triggers the release of endorphins, body chemicals that gives us a natural high that is conducive to love-making.

Crab is considered an aphrodisiac in many Pacific islands as well as parts of China

According to the Smell and Taste Research Center in Chicago, the scent of lavender arouses men and can be a significant contributor to “increased penile blood flow” “the direct connection between odors and sexual response cannot be denied”

“Asparagus stirs up lust in man and woman" (Nicholas Culpepper 1616-1654)
The inability to reach orgasm in both men and women is linked with a lack of histamines. Histamine production appears to be triggered by folic acid, so asparagus as the leading folic acid containing vegetable can help people reach their sexual peak!

Chocolate contains a stimulant called phenylethylamine, considered by some researchers as the "love chemical" as it gives you a feeling of well-being and excitement that is very similar to the endorphins giving us a natural high.
