#HealthBytes: 5 lifestyle habits that might ruin your sex life
09 Apr 2019


A satisfying sex life results in overall emotional, physical, and mental well-being.

However, there are many lifestyle factors that might be affecting your sex drive, and keeping you from hitting the sheets, of late.

So, in case you feel you are losing the spark in your sex life, here are 5 lifestyle habits that might be responsible and what you can do about them.


Not been hitting the gym lately?
No exercise


Exercise makes for a great way to keep your blood pumping in order.

In case you have lost connection with your gym-mates or running buddies, for that matter, chances are your blood circulation is not at its best.

Lack of exercise can significantly affect your sexual desire, by disturbing sexual hormones like estrogen and testosterone.

So, rub the dust off your sports shoes today!


Stress is a major mood-killer
Stress


If work deadlines keep you up at nights, there is a high possibility of increased cortisol levels in your body.

Cortisol is a total mood-killer and might harm testosterone and other hormonal production in body, keeping you from getting excited in bed.

Try relaxing activities like yoga and meditation to calm yourself down, and get your libido back on track again.


Get rid of those French fries, for good
Bad diet


You sure love that plate overloaded with your favorite French fries, burgers, and a can of coke by the side, but it could be ruining your sexual appetite.

Fried, salty, and even excessively sugary foods are bad choices if you want good action in bed.

For optimum sexual drive, a balanced diet (with certain must-haves like avocados, watermelons, and dark chocolates) should be preferred.


Too tired to do the deed?
Fatigue


A common problem among couples is that after a long day at work, they feel too tired for any action in the bedroom. Lack of sleep and sleeping disorders might also be responsible for your loss of interest in sex.

Get enough sound sleep each day, to maintain a healthy libido. In case you can't find a solution, consult your doctor.


Depression could also be the culprit
Mental health


When you are suffering mentally, your desire to do pretty much everything takes a toll.

Additionally, those anti-depressants might also be responsible for low sexual drive. Talk to your doctor to get over it sooner than later.

Further, if you feel under-confident about your own body, your sex drive is bound to suffer. Talk it out or try boosting your morale.
