Oysters, chocolate and ginger are all famous aphrodisiacs, but here are some that you may not have heard of.

Asparagus.  French newlyweds dined on three courses of asparagus the night before their wedding. Asparagus is packed with potassium, calcium and vitamin E, all of which give you extra energy.

Honey.  Hippocrates prescribed it for sexual vigor and it is a traditional gift at Indian weddings.  The word honeymoon is based on the tradition that newlyweds drank honey drinks until the first moon of their new marriage.

Rosemary.  In medieval times, rosemary plants were placed in bedrooms during lovemaking.  Then women would bathe with the leaves to use ‘scent memory’ to entice their men.
