Sex and Coffee?

Is caffeine an aphrodisiac?  Is there some magical chemical reaction in a cuppa that can rouse and arouse?  According to About.com, there may be some truth to it.

A University of Michigan urologist surveyed 744 married couples, age 60 or older, and discovered that those who were daily coffee drinkers were considerably more likely to call themselves “sexually active”--62 percent versus 38 percent of the noncoffee drinkers. Coffee-drinking men also reported less erectile dysfunction (ED). Caffeine does more than stimulate wakefulness. It also has antidepressant action that may contribute to its sex-stimulating effect.

Hmmm.  I'd like to know the stats for folx under 60.  But I'll keep this in mind when I'm in the geriatric dating pool.  Find me some frisky coffee-drinking johnny with a twinkle in his eye.

And what about chocolate?  In The Benefits of chocolate  J. Woods tells us that

Chocolate stimulates the secretion of endorphins, producing a pleasurable sensation similar to the "runner's high" a jogger feels after running several miles. Chocolate also contains a neurotransmitter, serotonin, that acts as an anti-depressant. Other substances, such as theobromine and phenylethylamine, have a stimulating effect. Scientists believe there are over three-hundred chemicals contained in chocolate which makes us feel so good!

But according to The Fat Guy at salon.com, the relationship between sex and food (or drink) is all in yer head.  Or rather, it's all about the memory and emotion that we attach to foods and the rituals surrounding foods that make them sexy.

Hey, the effects of alcohol aren't in my head, bub.  But then again, booze is a depressant, and too much alcohol puts me right to sleep.  I'm fun and uninhibited for about 5 minutes. 

After doing much personal research, my favorite concoction for reaching maximum warm-fuzzy, loosey-goosey-but-still-awake, ready-for-action is a combination of

• 1 part alcohol
• 3 parts caffeine
• 1 part chocolate

Sometimes with whipped cream. (Sometimes in the cup, and sometimes not.)  And if that's all in my head, I don't care.  It works for me!

The effects are subtle, nothing compared to a real aphrodisiac like epimedium, and too much champagne.

Coffee is a stimulant, which may increase sexual desire. The food you've mentioned like chocolate and champagne have chemicals and enzymes that cause anuy of the following: higher sensitivity in the erogenous zones, increase receptor function, and better moods. Phenylethylamine in chocolate is a neuromodulator and a stimulant.

The effects are subtle, nothing compared to a real aphrodisiac like epimedium, and too much champagne. Alcohol is proven to--if not increase the sex drive--at least an inhibition shredder. But watch out, actual performance may be compromised.
