In the Philippines, May is harvest season. As the temperature peaks, our local markets overflow with vibrant, sun-ripened fruits. But beyond being a refreshing snack for a beach trip, many of these “summer staples” are actually natural bedroom performance enhancers.
If you’re looking to boost your summer “stamina”, the secret might be sitting right on your fruit plate. Here is how to use fruits to fuel your summer fire.
1. Watermelon
If there were a king of summer fruits, the watermelon would be at the throne for its abundance in an amino acid called L-citrulline. It is the precursor to relaxing the muscles of your blood vessels, allowing them to dilate. This process, known as vasodilation, is the all-important mechanism required for erectile function and physical endurance.
2. Mangoes
Philippine mangoes aren’t just sweet; they are loaded with potassium. Potassium helps lower blood pressure and ensures your heart doesn’t have to work overtime during physical exertion– helping your muscles be less prone to cramping and fatigue.
3. The Sexy Summer Recipe
To get these nutrients into your system efficiently, skip the heavy desserts and try this smoothie:
- 2 Cups Fresh Watermelon (Chilled)
- 1 Ripe Mango
- 1/2 Inch Fresh Ginger
- Coconut Water
- Ice Cubes
Drink this in the afternoon to let the nutrients do its thing. By the time the sun goes down, your blood vessels are primed for better flow..
4. Completing the Vibe
While the smoothie sets the internal stage, the right gear finishes the vibe. PREMIERE Condoms Cool Watermelon is the perfect thematic “full circle” experience. Unlike other condoms, it offers an actual watermelon taste (not just a scent!) and a cooling sensation that combats the 40°C heat index.
Summer performance is a mix of what you put into your body and what you put on it. This May, leverage the power of L-citrulline and potassium from our local fruit basket. By pairing your internal “vasodilation diet” with the cooling, flavored sensation of PREMIERE Cool Watermelon, you’re ensuring a high-performance summer that’s as sweet as our fruit basket.
