Forget Viagra! Beer Can Significantly Enhance Sexual Performance

Great news for men worldwide- drinking beer, like popping Viagra, can transform any average Joe into a Casanova sex god, according to an American sex therapist.

Sex researcher Dr. Kat van Kirk, author of The Married Sex Solution: A Realistic Guide to Saving Your Sex Life, insists that downing a couple of pints increases sexual prowess.

Dr. van Kirk explains that phytoestrogens in beer can help prevent premature ejaculation by stalling orgasm, according to Medical Daily.

Beer's magical abilities don't stop at preventing rookie bedroom embarrassments; the popular adult beverage can also help men sustain longer and harder erections.

How? Dr. van Kirk explains that iron in darker brews accelerates red blood cells' ability to produce more hemoglobin. More hemoglobin means higher levels of oxygen content in blood, better blood circulation and therefore more formidable erections, according to The Independent.

New research suggests that beer can also boost sexual stamina. A study published in the European Journal of Epidemiology revealed that moderate beer drinkers had significantly lower risks of cardiovascular disease compared to their teetotaling counterparts. This lower risk of cardiovascular disease translates into lower rates of stroke, heart attacks, heart disease... and longer sessions of cardio-heavy bedroom acrobatics, according to Askmen.

So, forget the urban legend of "whiskey d*#k," and help yourself to a few pints the next time you're about to impress a lover.
