This study sort of blew my mind. Researchers in Australia suggest that alcohol improves (instead of dampens) a man's sexual performance. Pass him a beer and keep reading...
Everyone's heard that too much booze can make it, um, hard for men to perform in the sack, but a study of 1,580 Australian men found that moderate drinkers had 30 percent fewer erectile dysfunction problems than teetotalers. Even binge drinkers had lower rates of ED than those who never drank. (Public service announcement: Binge drinking causes a whole host of other health problems, so please don't tell your man to go on a bender.)
"We found that, compared to those who have never touched alcohol, many people do benefit from some alcohol, including some people who drink outside the guidelines,'' study author Dr. Kew-Kim Chew told The Sunday Telegraph. Men who drank up to 20 drinks per week appeared to have the best erectile function.
