As a woman, can you increase sex drive through diet and exercise? The answer is yes, let's talk about it.


nutrition and exercise are absolutely going to have an effect on our sex drive. And the reason for this is because we know when we have our nutrition in check, we have our exercise in check, we're going to be feeling good overall, right? That's going to have an impact on everything that happens during our day, our energy levels, how we're feeling when we're around people How are feeling around our spouse, right. So that's important to pay attention to.
