I don't need no Viagra, I got Watermelons!


If you realised that your hubby's/bf's sex drive have been on the uphill recently and you're sure he is not taking any enhancement drugs, chances are, he has been taking loads of watermelon recently.

Why?

A research done in Lubbock, Texas have found out that, fresh watermelon has effects similar to Viagra.

Apparently, watermelon contain an ingredient called citrulline that can trigger production of a compound that helps relax the body's blood vessel, similar to what happens when a man takes Viagra.

Found in the flesh and rind of watermelons, citrulline reacts with the body's enzymes when consumed in large quantities and is changed into arginine, an amino acid that benefits the heart and the circulatory and immune system.

"Arginine boost nitric oxide, which relaxes blood vessels, the same basic effect that Viagra has, to treat erectile dysfunction and maybe even prevent it" said Bhimu Patil, a researcher and director of Texas A&M's Fruit and Vegetable Improvement Centre.


So, if your dissatisfied with your hubby/bf's "performance" in bed or simply want to spice up your life, you may want to feed him more watermelons! He might turn into a work horse without him noticing it!
