Because it helps in controlling elevated prolactin. It also aids in estrogen and testosterone function, as well as the production of red blood cells, serotonin, and dopamine. For men with low sperm count, Vitamin B6 has been shown to help increase these levels.

-Vitamin B12 heightens your sex drive...

Which enhances erectile function by enlarging blood vessels. It also stimulates the secretion of histamine needed for orgasm.

-Vitamin C is important for the synthesis of androgen, estrogen, and progesterone...

That are involved in your sexuality, fertility, and aiding in arousal.

-Vitamin E increases blood flow and oxygen to your genitalia...

It also is a key player in the production of your sex hormones to give you that sex drive boost.

-Magnesium helps in the production of androgen and estrogen that regulates libido...

This mineral has documented aphrodisiac effects that can improve your libido and sexual performance. It also helps to calm and relax you so that you can have an increased sex drive.

-Selenium is essential to sperm production.

Nearly half, 50%, of the selenium in your or your partner’s body is in the testes and seminal ducts.
Guys lose selenium in their semen when they ejaculate.
The importance of Selenium is its role in the antioxidant activity of Vitamin E, the “Sex Vitamin”.
Having optimal levels of Selenium is essential for your virility.

-Zinc is required for the production of testosterone and the production of sperm...

Healthy testosterone levels in both men and women are important to a healthy sex drive.
Zinc also aids in prostate health.
Your prostate has a large amount of zinc, which helps regulate prostatic fluid.
When there is a deficiency of zinc this hurts your prostate.
Without a healthy prostate, you can’t have a healthy sex life.
Studies show that women with greater sex drive have higher levels of testosterone.
To increase your testosterone, add zinc to your diet.
Zinc blocks the enzyme that converts testosterone to estrogen.
