What Your Kitchen Cupboard Says About Your Relationship

Cupboard Culprit: Salty snacks

What they say about your relationship: “If your pantry is stocked with chips and processed hydrolyzed-oil snacks, you’re the type of person who puts no effort into cooking,” says about.com’s “Guide to Local Foods” Molly Watson, a chef, former cooking instructor and recipe developer. And if you're not putting much effort into cooking, it stands to reason that you don't put much effort into heating things up in the bedroom. More important, food is fuel when it comes to revving it up in bed. According to Watson, recent research found that "excessive sugar, salt, saturated fat and highly processed foods are linked to frigidity, difficulty reaching orgasm and lack of interest in sex. Cutting back on these foods will help revive and preserve sexual vitality and enhance overall well-being."

What you should replace them with: "Stock your pantry with simple, fresh ingredients so you can make healthy meals like pasta, rice, couscous, fruits and veggies," says Watson. Jacquie Noelle, author of the "Better Sex Through Yoga" series, is living proof that a healthier kitchen translates to a hotter sex life. After she lost her libido due to chronic fatigue syndrome, she eliminated salty foods from her diet. She told forbes.com, "I started to feel good and wanted to have sex."
