Women Who Eat Apples Have Better Sex?

July 11, 2014

In other words, nuns who eat apples are basically just wasting them.

According to Newser, a recent study suggests that women who eat one or two apples on a daily basis are going to “experience a better sexual quality of life than women classified as having no regular apple consumption.”

The results were published in the Archives of Gynecology and Obstetrics after scientists studied 781 Italian women between the ages of 18 and 43 who didn’t have a history of sexual disorder, were not suffering from depression, and were not taking prescription medication.

The experiment took place from September 2011 to April 2012. When the dust had settled, researchers found that women who ate apples on a regular basis experienced better lubrication and overall sexual function.

Apples contain polyphenols and antioxidants that “increase blood flow to the genitalia” as well as Phloridzin, which improves vaginal lubrication. Some researchers believe that those benefits are found only in the apple’s peel.

Remember, ladies: an apple a day keeps the doctor away. Well, unless you’re plowing him. Then he’ll apparently be knocking down your door every night.
