-What is acupuncture?
Medical News Today says, "Acupuncture is a form of treatment that involves inserting very thin needles through a person’s skin at specific points on the body, to various depths."

-What are the benefits of acupuncture?
It can help relieve pain, and it is used for a wide range of other complaints.

- What is "great sex"
Physiologically, great sex is when our nerves are firing strong rapid impulses to and from our genitals. It's when our blood vessels are delivering adequate blood flow. "Pleasure, climax, arousal, lubrication; they're all dependent on blood flow".

What we eat can affect how quickly our nerves carry signals to our genitals. What we eat can affect our sex hormones. Certain meals increase blood flow while other foods stiffen blood vessels! This is how our diet affects our sex life.

"There are foods we can eat in the short term for great sex and there are foods we can eat in the long term for great sex".
 
"One of the best things you can put in your body for sexual pleasure is leaves & greens." Greens promote optimum blood flow and can even repair blood vessels.
