So you’re down and just can’t get up, well watermelon may be your savior. Before reaching for that phone and ordering Viagra or Cialis, you may want to take a trip down to your local grocery store and pick up a watermelon or two.
Bhimu Patil, researcher and director of the Fruit and Vegetable Improvement Center at Texas A&M University, said that watermelon delivers Viagra-like effects on blood vessels throughout the body, increasing overall libido.
When you bite into the meat of a watermelon you get a hit of citrulline amino acid, which helps your overall cardiovascular system and relaxes blood vessels, meaning as it goes down you go up.
Remember that watermelon has a lot of water in it, so make sure to get it organic; otherwise, you’ll be digesting a lot of pesticides and herbicides.
