Aphrodisiac 5: Chilli
Average rating: 3 out of 5 star rating

The body's reaction to eating chilli is similar to the feelings you experience when having sex, such as an increased heart rate and circulation and sweating. Red chillis are more potent than green. They also contain a substance called capsaicin which gives the body a temporary high.
