Vitamin D is the sexiest vitamin of all time

Earlier this week I wrote an article for my other blog THE SEX FILES about how the cold and long-ass winter is destroying relationships.  And winter is winning. People have run out of things to do. Boredom and exhaustion are putting a strain on relationships, not only with our lovahs, but with ourselves and our friends.

Relationships aren’t just emotional and the issues we have with our SO aren’t always about communication, philandering and compatibility. Sometimes the issues that we are having with our partner are rooted in physical and chemical imbalances. Especially if you’re feeling the effects of a winter where you’re lacking sunshine, fresh air and exercise, a lot of the fights that we have or communication issues are actually us being naturally depressed, anxious, exhausted and blah.

This is an amazing realization, because there is SUCH an easy fix! Get more of the vitamins and nutrients that feed your body and you can change the whole mood of winter around.

If your sex life has taken a nose dive over the past few months, it’s not your fault. Or your partner. GET MORE VITAMIN D.

Also do the other things to improve your health and create a lifestyle that makes you feel supah-sexy. Healthy feels sexy to me.

For both men and women, Vitamin D improves sex drive. It also improves a lot of the emotional symptoms that cause lack of mojo; like depression, exhaustion, headaches (no she’s not lying), weight gain etc.

If you’re not in the mood, you may just need to rebalance your hormones which has a huge effect on your sex drive and ability to turn it on.

Your body is still driven by it’s drive to procreate. When you improve your fertility, you will feel more in line with your sexuality.

It’s hard to get sexy when you feel sick all the time. Get your immune system functioning at it’s best and you’ll feel better overall, including in the bedroom (or on the kitchen table)

The complex way Vitamin D affects your body is hard to sum up, but from my experience I can say, it makes me feel…. happy.

Side note – don’t trust over the counter vitamins. They are rarely what they say and rarely effective. Email me if you want suggestions on a good Vitamin recommendation.  emily@emilystraubel.com
