Why are oysters considered an aphrodisiac?

Question

Can anyone help me understand this?

Answer 1

Like many foods of the sea, the oyster’s slightly salty/sweet scent, a smell not dissimilar to the most potent female pheromone, TMA, has proven to be mildly stirring. Although the serving of nutrients in a single oyster is negligible, oysters are loaded with zinc, a key nutrient for testosterone production, (important for stimulating libido in both men and women). Foods high in both protein and zinc, like oysters, have been credited with keeping men virile well into old age, although the quantity of required oysters may be overwhelming. (Even in his sexual prime, Casanova supposedly consumed 50 oysters each day to keep his libido in top form).

Answer 3

I guess it is because of zinc. Oysters are the best source for zinc, 100g raw oysters contain 65.6mg, top of the chart, 2nd is crab meat, contains only 9.1mg per 100g. Adults need 12mg, pregnant women need 16mg per day respectively.

Here is the introduction of this mineral:

Zinc is required to assist our appetite as well as our sense of smell and taste. It helps fight infections, improves imunity, maintains healthy nails, skin, hair, tissue growth and repair, and IS NECESSARY FOR SEXUAL DEVELOPMENT AND REPRODUCTION. Zinc is involved in the action of many enzymes that control various chemical rections in the body.

The signs of dificiency of zine are loss of taste, smell and appetite, poor growth and wound healing, reduced libido and sperm count, late onset of puberty, dry flaky skin, dandruff and increased susceptibility to infection. People at rish of deficiency include alcoholics, vegans, children and elderly people with poor diets.
