What women eat—or don't eat—can alter their libido. Here's how.
A low-quality diet that leads to obesity and metabolic syndrome can negatively affect female sexuality.
Obesity produces excessive levels of inflammation, decreased blood levels of nitric oxide, and reduced clitoral blood flow and sexual enjoyment. The Mediterranean diet may help alleviate the sexual dysfunction of obese women and reduce blood levels of inflammatory cytokines. The incidence of female sexual dysfunction, at some point in their life, is high—at least 40 percent. Women are often uncomfortable bringing up sexual concerns with their doctors; physicians are often reluctant to ask about the topic. Sexual dysfunction is likely underdiagnosed and rarely treated adequately. Obviously, sexual health is closely related to overall health.
