Cherries and berries and mangoes, oh my!

Red, ripe strawberries, juice flowing from fingers down to lips. The berries, the ice cream, the whipped cream. Think of the passion, think of the sensuality -- think of the calories. The good news is you can skip the whipped cream and still reap many sensual benefits of fruit while getting your heart rate pumping in fun and sexy ways. If you normally associate fruit with salads, cocktails, cleansing masks or even shampoo, it's time to investigate some of its more invigorating qualities. Fruits have long been regarded as nature's aphrodisiacs but do they really have sexual powers?

Yes, says Josey Vogels, a Canadian authority on sexual behaviour and habits. "Juicy, gushing, fleshy, ripe…you can't help but think about sex when you think about cherries or strawberries in a romantic setting," Vogels says. Indulging in fruits with aphrodisiac reputations can act as powerful foreplay, as well as provide natural sexual aids during intercourse.

Lush, fleshy, juicy tropical fruit carries perhaps the strongest links to sexual activity. No matter how you slice it, all work together to inspire deliciously messy abandon.

Cherries and berries and mangoes, oh my!
Cherries: Red, ripe cherries are pleasurable eaten freshly washed or plucked out of a bowl of its own juices. This sensuous liquid can also be used to moisten lips, nipples and other body parts for licking clean. Cherries are thought to be a strong aphrodisiac for women in particular. You don't have to prepare anything fancy in the kitchen: just have a cherry rubbed up and down your body, fed to you slowly or dipped in dark chocolate for a taste revelation.

Strawberries: Strawberries have long been associated with romance, chocolate, and sensuality, and beg to be fed to another. For fruit therapy eat them freshly washed or cover them in either white or dark chocolate. The ripe, red fruit offers natural juice to be spread on lips, waiting to be licked off.

Mangoes: The mango is known in some circles as "The Love Fruit." In India, the mango tree is thought to be able to grant wishes. Make your wishes comes true after a feast on this highly touted "natural Viagra" fruit. The Kamasutra even recommends drinking mango juice before engaging in sexual play. Loaded with zinc, sugar, and other nutrients, this fruit is reputed to increase stamina.

Bananas: Just look at it. The banana is nature's most well-known phallic symbol. And yes, it is thought to have aphrodisiac qualities beyond its appearance. The male libido may be perked up due to natural chemicals found in bananas. Put together a banana split (with an uncut banana) and top it with whipped cream and cherries. Who needs a dish when you have a willing partner's stomach nearby? Ripe bananas are great for smearing and licking.


Peaches, apricots: Many nice bottoms are described as "perfect peaches" and that's not surprising when you pick up a peach, or its smaller sexy cousin, the apricot. The Chinese have long been associating apricots and peaches with sexual ripeness and sensuality. Just caress the soft, fuzzy covering and feel the juicy flesh that awaits underneath and you'll find out why. The aroma is unmistakable and is known to have a sexual affect on men. 

Dates: Dates are particularly thought to be romantically inspiring for women. The dark, moist pungent flesh of the date is reminiscent of other dark, moist delights. In some parts of the world, there is a more practical side to eating a date. In Iran, dates are reputed to be good for someone whose sex life is in a slump.

Papaya: "Open a papaya, and what are you going to be thinking about? Exactly," says Vogels. The wet black seeds inside have been compared to another natural aphrodisiac: caviar. Follow a papaya with a mango for him and some cherries for you to balance your yin and yang.

Figs: Perhaps the fig leaves found on Adam and Eve were evidence of what actually led to their downfall. Forget the apple, the fig is thought to act as a strong sexual stimulant. It is also viewed as a symbol for fertility and love. Like oysters, widely believed to be one of the strongest food aphrodisiacs, figs are thought to resemble a woman's vulva when aroused.

Whether Valentine's Day is just around the corner, the promise of spring love is in the air or you're settling in for a cold winter, now is the perfect time to gather ripe fresh fruit for indulgencies of a sweet and juicy nature. Visiting friends need not know that your overflowing fruit basket indicates anything but a healthy appetite.
