Pine nuts, the perfect ingredient for a love potion
Pine nuts are very rich in zinc, an essential element to help with fertility and sex drive.
Their aphrodisiac reputation apparently started in regards to the effort that was required in order to collect them.
A great health ally, it is not only good to increase sexdrive and to protect the sexual organs from diseases, but it is a wonderful friend for the brain and to protect against cardiovascular problems.
It is also interesting to note that the Pinus Gerardiana is considered the perfect pine nut type to create your love potion.
