The relationship between food and women's sexual health is very intriguing. Several authors stated that the daily use of some foods or beverages, such as chocolate or red wine, are associated with a better female sexual quality of life in terms of sexual desire or lubrication. Recently, a national multicenter cross-sectional study suggest a potential relationship between regular daily apple consumption and better sexuality in our young women population, highlighting the role of some phytoestrogen such as phloridzin, a dihydrochalcone glycoside, that is contained under the apple pee. Here, we evaluate the role of daily apple consumption in the female sexual quality of life, by using a narrative review of the current literature.

Abstract

The relationship between food and women's sexual health is very intriguing. Several authors stated that the daily use of some foods or beverages, such as chocolate or red wine, are associated with a better female sexual quality of life in terms of sexual desire or lubrication. Recently, a national multicenter cross-sectional study suggest a potential relationship between regular daily apple consumption and better sexuality in our young women population, highlighting the role of some phytoestrogen such as phloridzin, a dihydrochalcone glycoside, that is contained under the apple pee. Here, we evaluate the role of daily apple consumption in the female sexual quality of life, by using a narrative review of the current literature.
