 Foods: Fuel for Sex
By: Cindy Tshola.
Who compiled this list? May be the researchers need to extend their research and consult from African nutritionists what drives the sexual prowess of African men. None of the African foods is on this list yet the sex drive of most African men is rated very high. No wonder many men are polygamous in Africa yet they are able to keep with their duties! You may agree or disagree with me but the list is fishy and misses the most important foods. May be the secret is in foods like yam, peanuts, yuca, millet, corn, green banana, potatoes, rice, which are rampant in African diets! You can't mess with a man who is fed on Ugali (corn meal) for a lifetime, exercises the body by walking long journeys to collect water, firewood, and tills his garden to provide food for the family. Nevertheless, I agree with the authors that being overweight could cause reduction in sex drive due to low self esteem and it related health effects.
Here is the list called Fuel for Sex!
Researchers have found that many foods contain hundreds of chemical compounds that have very specific, and sometimes sex-enhancing, effects.
You can make nutrition as complicated as you like, but you should follow the basics—keeping your weight down, eating less junk food, and getting the right mix of protein, carbs, and fats. You're going to have more energy than you did before. Simple as that.
Energy, of course, is one thing, and sexual energy and capacity are something else altogether. Which brings us to the subject of food and sex. In the past few decades, researchers have gotten pretty good at decoding the chemical mix in the foods we eat. What they've discovered is that many foods contain hundreds of chemical compounds that have very specific, and sometimes sex-enhancing, effects.
They're not aphrodisiacs, in the sense of driving up libido and inflaming desire. Rather, many of these chemicals essentially fine-tune the machinery of sex by reducing cholesterol buildup and enhancing blood flow, stimulating the release of feel-good brain chemicals and hormones, and giving your body the chemical energy it needs to work at top capacity.
From Built For Sex, a Rodale Inc. book
Chilies
They contain capsaicin, a chemical compound that causes your heart to race and your skin to flush—a sure sign that blood flow is on the fast track. They dilate blood vessels and help all of that blood get where it's needed.

The sun somehow feels closer here, more intense, more personal. As Philip Lolua waits under a tree for a scoop of food, heat waves dance up from the desert floor, blurring the dead animal carcasses sprawled in front of him. So much of his green pasture land has turned to dust. His once mighty herd of goats, sheep and camels have died of thirst. He says his 3-year-old son recently died of hunger. And Mr. Lolua does not look to be far from death himself.

EU seeks to renew Zimbabwe ties

Mr Mugabe is under pressure to end politically-motivated violence
Senior EU officials will visit Zimbabwe this weekend to push for progress that could deliver a normalisation of ties.
It will be the first such visit since the EU imposed sanctions targeting Zimbabwe's President Robert Mugabe and his top aides in 2002.
This week southern African leaders urged the international community to lift sanctions against Zimbabwe, now that it has a power-sharing government.
But senior EU officials say there is no plan to lift sanctions.
They say it is just a preparatory visit, to re-establish a political dialogue.
The EU acknowledges that significant progress has been made, but it is mindful that President Mugabe has still not fulfilled all his promises to end harassment of the opposition, and to respect human rights, the BBC's Peter Nettleship reports.

UNAA Convention Updates Live! Part 1
Traveling to Chicago was with a few minor incidences, I could not connect to my flight in Hertsfield-Jackson International Airport in Atlanta. The plane landed and got entangled in a long queue, more or less like Matatus (taxis) on Ben Kiwanuka Street, by the time I took a train to my gate, it was too late to catch the plane. Thank God this is not EBB because I was imediately re-booked on the next flight out (in 1 hrs time); Delta Airlines neither asked me any questions nor charged me extra fees. If I missed my flight in EBB I probably would have to wait at least two days or probably a week. However, flying is no longer exciting, given that I checked in one bag and still had to pay for it! What happened to those days when flying was fun? The pretzels they give out taste like eating sponge, those little things have no taste at all! The only fun yesterday was the handsome and young flight attendant who happens to be from France, he heard my exotic accent and sensed I was not from the US. So he asked if I am from Africa. He happens to have been to Cote D'Ivoire and he loved it. I talked to him about the rich and diverse African culture and about African music and of course Myafricanmusic.com. Since I had on board access to the internet, I showed the website and he watched one video of Ndombolo, there wasn't much time so he had to proceed with his flight duties. In a nutshell he was impressed by what he saw and promised to be a supporter and regular listener. |
