Read everything under the sun to improve your sex life but nothing has changed? Well, don’t worry because this study is surely going to help you out. And, you’ll be glad to hear that a change in your diet is the answer to your sex woes.

The survey reported by UK-based Hucknall Dispatch said that non-vegetarians are “selfish in bed and unhappy in their sex lives compared to vegetarians”.

Nearly 500 vegetarians — of which 38% were vegans — and 500 non-vegetarian people were surveyed by UK’s largest extra-marital portal IllicitEncounters.com to reach this conclusion.

The majority of vegetarians (57%) said they make love three-four times a week compared to most meat-eaters who only enjoyed the action between the sheets one-two times a week (49%).

Plant-based foods are high in zinc and vitamins B, which can increase libido — bananas, chickpeas, and avocados, in particular, are good for this.

Going vegan can also increase serotonin levels, which can both boost sex drive and increase happiness.

So, it’s not just about losing weight or saving the environment – turning a vegetarian can also help in steaming up things between and your partner as well.
