What you eat can impact on your sex drive, says nutritionist Lisa Guy.

Your sex drive can be affected by many factors - including age, hormones, stress, tiredness, depression and even certain medications. The good news is that you can give your libido a boost simply by eating certain foods.
Try eating a diet rich in zinc, B vitamins and essential fatty acids - these are the nutrients required for sex hormone production and reproductive function.
Here are five foods to try:

Almonds

An excellent source of omega-3 fats, which are essential for the production of testosterone, fertility and a healthy sex drive.

Bananas

High in B vitamins and potassium, which are needed for the production of the sex hormones necessary for a healthy libido in men and women.

Oysters

A rich source of zinc, which is one of the key nutrients involved in testosterone, sperm production and reproductive health.

Avocados

Contain folic acid, B6 and potassium, all necessary to increase male hormone production and enhance libido.

Pumpkin seeds

Rich in zinc and omega-3 fats, two vital nutrients necessary for testosterone production and reproductive health.
