I thought Aphrodisiacs where an old wives’ tale?

How do aphrodisiacs work?
Doctors and scientists say that aphrodisiacs work in two ways. They work by creating a sexual desire just by the fact that you know you’re eating them. Remember, your brain is your biggest sex organ! They also create desire by acting as stimulants to various parts of your body. Some increase blood flow which can help create better sensations during sexual intercourse, some produce chemicals that are associated with increased sexual desire, and then some lower your inhibitions.
