BASIL It's an old-wives-tale that leaves of basil, secretly placed under the dishes on the table, would deter people from wanting to eat those items. As a technique for reducing your weight, we seriously doubt the effectiveness of this tip, but we do recommend a little basil in your soups and stews -- maybe in tandem with that garlic. The boost in flavor may help you to feel satisfied sooner. Used to replace salt, herbs can naturally cut down your sodium intake and reduce water weight, as well.
- Some herbal ingredients stimulate generally the function of the neural system. Since sexual response and feelings are dependent of a well working neural system, the herbs will also increase the sexual response.
- Other herbal ingredients generally improve the body's blood circulation. The better blood flow and the better control of the blood flow will then make the genital organs work better and engorge better upon sexual stimulation. Better engorgement will stimulate the feeling bodies at the nerve endings in the sexual organs and thus give stronger physical feelings.
- There are components in some herbs that stimulate tissue growth and regeneration. Such components can make structures in the sexual organs grow stronger and more capable to do their work.
