A study in the Archives of Gynecology and Obstetrics says that women who eat one to two apples a day are better at sex than women who are not regular apple eaters. Scientists followed 781 Italian women aged 18 to 43 with no history of sexual disorder and who were not taking prescription medicine or suffering from depression, and learned that those who eat apples regularly had better "lubrication and overall sexual function."
The researchers didn't establish causation—it's possible, for instance, that women who eat more apples are healthier overall, which contributes to better sexual function. But, like chocolate and red wine, apples contain polyphenols and antioxidants, which can increase blood flow to the genitalia, as well as phloridzin, a type of estrogen similar to the female sex hormone estradiol that improves vaginal lubrication.
