Man and woman under a white duvet

Whether you're looking to improve libido, optimize fertility, or increase energy levels, sexual well-being is an essential component of overall balance. Here are the natural ingredients and micronutrients recognized as powerful allies for everyone's sexual well-being.

1. Vitamins B6, B12, and C: Energy, Fertility, and Libido

Vitamin B6 is essential for regulating sex hormones, as it contributes to the synthesis of serotonin and dopamine, neurotransmitters that influence desire and mood.

Vitamin B12 improves blood circulation and is essential for proper erectile function and sperm vitality.

Finally, Vitamin C protects sperm cells from oxidative stress and enhances their motility. It promotes vasodilation and improves blood flow to the genitals, positively impacting libido and sexual response.
