New Food & Sex Research
AddThis Social Bookmark Button

Trust me when I say that if I weren't a nutrition writer/expert, I probably
would have become a sex/marriage therapist. Definitely this popular topic is
in my top three favorite things to talk about. Someday I'll write a book
merging my two favorite topics (food & sex), but in the meantime, I'll just
have to blog!

A new study (with rats) just came out that basically found that the female rats loaded on caffeine weren't exactly "shy" about wanting and getting sex, again and again. Since it was shots of "caffeine" that seemed to create these wanton rats, what does this possibly imply about cultures that are absolutely rabid about their caffeinated tea drinking? (England...Asia...just to name a couple)

The researchers say it's too early to say whether caffeine will have similar
effects on human females...but I might just get my stock in Starbucks right
now (LOL)...but here's a thought...maybe the caffeinated-charged rats just
got more sex because they couldn't get to sleep?

Well, geez Elaine, you are trying to choke me on a Friday morning. Interesting theory. Wish it applied in my house. Maybe I really ought to be better at setting the coffee pot up before I go to work.

Hi,
I have a friend and I need some guidance.

He is diabetic, and of course well over weight. He is now taking coumadin for the rest of his life.

I am not pleased with the guidance he is getting. He thinks it is ok to have a salad once in a while etc. I am reading up on coumadin and it mentions foods high in Vitamin K will cause a reaction.

My friend truly counts on me and has thus far given up brownies, ice cream soda etc. However, I need help.

Any suggestions would be helpful. I have suggested he get a nutritionist, but he states thats why he has me. Well, I need guidance.

Thanks
