Ayurveda Says You Should Drink This After Sex (Recipe)

Ayurveda says: Drink this after sex.

With research continuing to reveal the many health benefits of the big “O,” it might be surprising to learn of Ayurveda’s precautionary perspective.

According to Ayurveda, Indian traditional medicine, orgasm’s “cost” the body hard-earned ojas. Ojas are the body’s vital energy. Overspending of this energy can lead to a weakened immune system, a depleted sense of wholeness, and feelings of overall disconnection.

But, fear not! Your pleasures are still encouraged by Ayurveda. In fact, Ayurveda offers many suggestions to manage sexual energy throughout life. This includes delicious, coinciding Ayurvedic recipes like this one.

This drink is packed with ojas-building ingredients designed to boost immunity and revitalize strength after body-quaking lovemaking.
