Cheese

Many adults are lactose intolerant and you must definitely stay away from cheese. To avoid discomfort in the stomach, avoid that pizza, pasta, or burger that contains a huge amount of cheese.

Beer

Beer causes uncomfortable belly bloating and can lead to farts, burps, and awkward situations. Definitely not a good drink to have before sex.

Coffee

Another beverage that you should stay away from is coffee. Excess caffeine raises your stress hormone - cortisol. This lowers your libido and you can't relax.

Beans

While beans have many health benefits, the after-effects can include bloating, a sluggish feeling and also an increase in flatulence levels.

Onion And Garlic

Onion and garlic can give us bread breath and can even alter the odour of secretions. Just stay away from them!

Energy Drinks

Loaded with artificial sweeteners and full of sugar, energy drinks can have an adverse impact on your sex life in the long run.

Cruciferous vegetables

There is a risk that cruciferous vegetables like cauliflower, and broccoli will make you gassy, something that you will not want before sex.

Fruits

This might sound surprising, but avoid fruits, especially after meals. Some experts say that because fruits get digested easily, people tend to overeat and this can cause cramping, gas, and general discomfort.

Mint

It might be the reason for fresh breath but according to some studies, menthol present in peppermint can lower testosterone levels and this can reduce your sex drive.
