13.Enhances Sexual Drive
Avoid, all those under 18 years of age! This remains rated PG for your consumption. Stinging nettle can increase a man’s libido or sex drive, particularly for couples who wish to “relive the magic” of their youth.
As males age, they may find it difficult to maintain their drive. Stinging nettle can maintain testosterone levels and prevent premature ejaculation. Additionally, the lignans in the plant possess a unique property that interacts with sex hormone-binding globulins (SHBG) to preserve testosterone in the bloodstream.
Stinging nettle is in the same category as other natural aphrodisiacs such as ginseng, cherries, and pomegranates, all of which are popular choices for stimulating “steamy” bedroom romance. In contrast to other synthetic aphrodisiacs, stinging nettle does not contribute to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), or prostate enlargement. If you’re seeking to reignite the spark in your relationship, perhaps a sip of this tea will do the trick.
