Vegan is the New Viagra

There are so many reasons an organic whole food plant-based diet is the greatest diet in the world, but if you’re not totally won over yet, I give you one more reason that might change your mind! Sex!

That’s right folks- cleaning up your diet and taking care of yourself inside and out and can translate to more sex, better sex, and feeling sexier in your skin! Who doesn’t want at least one of those things?

I’ve been noticing connections between sex and vegan diet all over lately! Here are just a few examples:

In the new documentary Average Joe On The Raw, the star of the experiment Seth Hayhurst brought his dwindling testosterone back into the normal range after just 60 days of eating raw!

Our favorite raw food beauty, Mimi Kirk was awarded the title of Sexiest Vegetarian Over 50- at age 71. Get her secrets about eating live food to stay young in her book Live Raw. It’s quickly become our new favorite cookbook here at Kale U because the recipes are so quick and easy and yet so creative and gourmet.

Philip McCluskey lost over 200 lbs and is still getting more and more ripped by the day- he went from 400 pounds to touring the world with his Sexy on Raw tour and sharing his fabulous energy and expertise in his books including The Sexiest Diet.

I just found Lauren DeYenno’s blog, Raw is Sexy, as I was researching for this post, and I’m so glad I did. Lauren has an incredibly inspiring story of tackling her body image issues, escaping disordered eating and ultimately finding her ideal weight and so much more through the power of raw living foods.

Everyone is out there looking for this magical pill or weight loss drug or special potion to suddenly “cure” them. No one thinks the answer is as simple as fruits and veggies. But it is.

There’s also the possibility of orgasmic heights without even having sex…

“The first time it happened to me I was in Sharon Gannon’s class at Jivamukti, and I was in forward bend. I was breathing and concentrating and suddenly, ‘Whoa!’”

Demi Moore, Carol Alt, Megan Fox, Amanda Seyfried, Natalie Portman, Alicia Silverstone, Angela Basset, Madonna, Edward Norton, David Duchovny, Jared Leto, Jason Mraz and many more celebs have mentioned that their hotness has come at least in part from their raw vegan diets, even if just experimenting or using it as a short-term plan to prepare for a role, or even lose the weight they had gained for a role.
