Coffee Before Sex
Coffee = better hanky panky @Julia Grandoni @Alexx
TikTok famous surgeon Dr Karan Raja has given his two cents about this tip.
His clip initially had two women who stated that it’s effective.
One stated that increases your orgasm by 50%.
Another attached clip had a woman tried it, giving a clue that it may have worked for her.
He jumps in, debunking whether it’s true or not.
Effects of Coffee in General
We should also look at what coffee really is: a stimulant.
This is because coffee contains caffeine, a stimulant that has many effects.
When one drinks coffee, it is commonly known that you’re more energised.
Once you’ve downed a shot, you may no longer feel drowsy or sleepy.
Another thing you may also note is that you’re more alert.
Once consumed, you’re able to concentrate on work and other various things.
Not only that, coffee also makes you feel more active.
This is because it activates your adrenal glands, increasing the adrenaline in your body.
So perhaps it’s the effects of alertness, increased heart rate and alertness that makes you more active.
Debunking the ‘Tip’
Despite the note that it’s not exactly true, Dr Karan has stated that it actually may be effective.
When consumed on a low dose, coffee or drinks with caffeine causes a vasoconstrictor effect.
This is when your blood vessels constrict, narrowing the blood vessels.
But if you consume them at a high dose, it gives an opposite effect, called the vasodilator effect.
This is when the blood vessels widen, improving blood flow.
Arousal and orgasm are based around on how much blood flows to your privates.
In theory, the better your circulation, the more arousal and orgasm you’ll get.
But this has only been proven to a study that are done on rats.
Scientists gave a small dose of caffeine to female rats.
And those who have a dose of them were more likely to mate.
So simply put, it may help you in climaxing during those sexy times.
Determining Your Coffee Intake
Though it is effective, consumption of coffee or caffeine also has other side effects.
One of which is your stool.
Some people tend to poop after their morning joe.
This is because it triggers your stomach to release gastrin.
Gastrin then triggers your gut to peristalsis, that moves the food in your stomach.
Another thing you also have to note that coffee can trigger some negative things.
Some people can get anxiety and restlessness.
And this may have to do with high consumption of it.
Have Fun Under the Sheets
At the end of the day, it’s a choice you may choose.
Despite the benefits this simple tip has, there are also other things you need to look for.
So have fun with your partner and enjoy your marriage!
