FETTUCINE ALFREDO CAN MAKE YOUR NOODLE LIMP

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (Wireless Flash) – Want to avoid becoming a wet noodle in the bedroom? Then don’t eat fettuccine alfredo just before romance. That’s according to fitness trainer and cookbook author Jyl Steinback, who says high-fat, high-carbohydrate pasta dishes can kill your libido by making you fall asleep before you even hit the sheets. She also suggests avoiding clam chowder, pudding and turkey, which all contain the sleep-inducing amino acid tryptophan. On the other hand, if you want to spice up your sex life, eat meals with plenty of garlic and onions. Those foods may make your breath stink, but Steinback says they increase sexual arousal.
