Aphrodisiac
So-called "aphrodisiacs" are valued by various cultures around the world for their sexually stimulating effects. Some natural aphrodisiacs can improve blood flow to the genitals and promote a healthy hormonal balance and immune system. This is suitable for both men and women who want to enhance their sex lives. In various situations, this can be very beneficial. For example, when one partner has a lower libido than the other. It may also be due to physical limitations caused by aging or illness. Other people may have a perfectly fine sex life but would like a little more. For all these cases, our sexual stimulants can offer a solution. These stimulants are also called aphrodisiacs, named after “Aphrodite,” the Greek goddess of love. We’d love to tell you more about how they work and the different types!

How Sexual Stimulants Work
Sexual stimulants are substances that increase your desire for sex or make you experience sensations more intensely and consciously. These sensations can be physical, but they can also be mental. For example, you might feel a tingling sensation when someone touches you, or even when someone winks at you. This experience of sensations is registered and processed in your brain. When you take an aphrodisiac, certain chemicals are released. These are absorbed into the bloodstream and processed in the brain. These substances can then influence the production of existing hormones in your brain. This can lead to the production of additional hormones that make you feel like having sex. Other substances, which would normally inhibit your sex drive, may be produced in smaller amounts. In this way, you can alter your own sexual feelings.
A sexual stimulant usually takes effect after half an hour and lasts for several hours. This means that after two people have had sex, they may still feel in the mood after a while. Many sexual stimulants also have a relaxing effect, making sex feel more pleasant and peaceful. For many people, stress is also a factor that negatively affects their sex life. Other sexual stimulants, for example, have a specific effect on the smooth muscle tissue in our bodies. In that case, the improved blood flow ensures that men can get an erection more easily and that it also lasts longer. This makes such specific aphrodisiacs an option for men who want to get it up a bit faster.
Aphrodite - goddess of fertility
Aphrodisiacs have been used since ancient times by people across all continents. The term itself is derived from the name of the Greek goddess of love, Aphrodite —the counterpart to the Romans’ Venus. This goddess is typically associated with fertility and energy. Throughout history, many types of foods have been considered aphrodisiacs. Today, we have managed to identify a large number of natural libido boosters, and many are readily available through sexual supplements as well as aphrodisiac herbs.
The main difference between the aphrodisiacs on this page and those on the herbs page is that many of the active ingredients in this category are formulated into convenient capsules or drinkable forms. So you no longer have to use a capsule machine to make your own capsules of your libido boosters. Do you want to add your aphrodisiac to a tea or perhaps even put it in your vaporizer? Then we recommend choosing the pure herbs!
Types of aphrodisiacs
There are many types of aphrodisiacs. We can distinguish them based on method of use, chemical structure, and the naturalness of the stimulants.
- Method of use: some sexual stimulants are taken as a liquid, while others are consumed in the form of a pill or powder.
- Chemical structure: one substance contains different compounds than another. This means that one type of stimulant will produce different sensations than another.
- Naturalness: Some sexual stimulants are already widely present in everyday life. Think, for example, of chocolate and strawberries. Other sexual stimulants are synthetic and available only in stores such as our own online shop.
