1. Spinach

Spinach is full of the mineral magnesium that increases blood flow and increases arousal just like Viagra to make sex more pleasurable.

2. Dark Chocolate

Just like spinach, the cocoa in dark chocolate increases blood flow but through the arteries as well as relaxing the surrounding blood vessels which makes blood flow in the right places which will then increase a person’s sex drive.

3. Watermelon

Watermelon is 92% water but the remaining 8% has juice that include the nutrient, citrulline, that is good for sexual health. The body turns citrulline into an amino acid that increases nitric oxide levels that relaxes the blood vessels and just like spinach, acts like Viagra.

4. Celery

Has two steroids, androsterone and adrostenol that travel to the sweet glands which makes us attracted to the opposite sex.

5. Pumpkin Seeds

They have an excellent source of zinc which help increase testosterone levels. Zinc blocks an enzyme that converts estrogen to testosterone which has shown to be good for boosting females sex drives.

6. Red grapes

They contain the mineral boron which helps the production of estrogen and testosterone which increases the energy of sex organs and puts you in the mood quicker.

7. Peppers

One bell pepper contains 600% of your daily vitamin C needs. Vitamin C helps blood circulation to the sex organs which increases female libido. Next time you’re at the grocery store buying peppers make sure you buy red peppers over green because it is proven that red contain more vitamin C than green peppers!

8. Kidney Beans

They are rich in L-arginine which has been tested that it improves frequency of sex, females desire, and satisfaction.

9. Avocados

Most people have low sex drives when they are tired. Luckily, avocados are rich in vitamins B6 and folic acid which are great for increasing your energy levels which will then boost your libido. B6 also helps with prolactin, a protein, that enhances sex drives.

10. Salmon

Has a great source of Omega- 3 fats that helps lower blood pressure, triglycerides, improves circulation, and boosts dopamine levels to make sex more pleasurable. The better the circulation, the easier the blood flow to the sex organs to make them function as best they can.

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
