Eating pumpkin could give you a boost in bed, pharmacists claim. Rather than chucking out the flesh when making jack-o’-lanterns this Halloween, men should eat it to help prevent erectile dysfunction. The autumn fruit is packed full of nutrients that help prevent high blood pressure—one of the biggest causes of ED.
A pharmacist explained: “Pumpkins are high in potassium which helps counteract the adverse effects of sodium on blood pressure.” Previous research, published in the Journal of Food Biochemistry, also showed eating pumpkin seeds helps improve levels of nitric oxide in the body linked to getting erections. It is a crucial part of how Viagra works—the drug helps stimulate enzymes that increase nitric oxide production.
