If your partner is doing all the right things yet it still doesn&#8217;t spark that fire, you might need to take a step back and look at your lifestyle choices.<\/p>\n<p>Whether you can&#8217;t get through a morning without your cup of coffee, or you&#8217;ve been having one too many cheat days, we all have vices we just can&#8217;t go without&#8230;but you&#8217;d be surprised at how much they can affect your sex life.<\/p>\n<p>Ahead, you&#8217;ll find habits that may be holding you back from a better sex life.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Caffeine<\/strong><br \/>\nYour sex life can depend on how you handle caffeine on a regular basis. If coffee makes you jittery, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.health.com\/food\/coffee-sex-drive\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">it may spike your anxiety<\/a> in the bedroom, which can affect how much you&#8217;re enjoying sex. It can also make it harder for you to get an orgasm!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Alcohol<\/strong><br \/>\nIf you&#8217;re trying to get pregnant, you should lay off the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drinkaware.co.uk\/alcohol-facts\/how-alcohol-affects-relationships\/is-alcohol-affecting-your-sex-life\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">extra cocktails<\/a> at happy hour. Alcohol can make it harder for women to get pregnant when consumed in larger amounts. Men also tend to suffer from impotence when they&#8217;ve had too much to drink (which isn&#8217;t fun for anyone).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Smoking<\/strong><br \/>\nIf you needed another reason to quit smoking, here it is. We&#8217;ve heard it time and time again that smoking can cause a bevy of health issues, but it <a href=\"http:\/\/www.webmd.com\/men\/features\/want-better-sex#1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">can also hurt your sexual performance<\/a>. Cigarettes can lower your libido and make sex become mundane or uninteresting.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Unhealthy Food<\/strong><br \/>\nHaving a diet that consists more of burgers and fries than kale salads, doesn&#8217;t just affect your\u00a0waistline, but also your sex life. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.muscleandfitness.com\/nutrition\/meal-plans\/5-ways-unhealthy-diet-can-ruin-your-sex-life\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Poor eating habits<\/a> can negatively affect your testosterone levels. A lower testosterone level can leave you tired, in a bad mood, and with a low sex drive.<\/p>\n<p>xx, The FabFitFun Team<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":"Does it feel like you're just never in the mood for sex?
