If you’re a chocolate freak, the makers of K Sensual, Chocolate For Women Only , give you a new excuse to indulge.

The fruit of 12 years of research by Dr Roger Hirsh, a Beverley Hills-based practitioner of Oriental medicine, acupuncturist and herbalist, and manufactured by K Chocolatier, K Sensual is being touted as “an all-natural herbal chocolate that physically releases your sensuality, creating an intensified sexual experience”.

Naturally occurring mood enhancers include hare’s ear root, peony root, mint, matrimony vine fruit, horney goat weed, fleshy broomrape, raspberry fruit and licorice root.

Should you eat it? Depends on your motivation and wallet. K Sensual costs $50 for 14 pieces, and the general consensus is that it probably just has a placebo effect — you think it will work, so it will. That said, if the idea works for you, go for it girl!

Blow Him Off!
How to let a guy down gently? Don’t lie to him if you don’t want to see him again, but do choose your words carefully. Say you had a great time, but you don’t think the two of you go together. It also helps to put the onus on yourself — mention that you have some very ex-boyfriend issues.

Guys like honesty as much as women, but have very fragile egos (so what’s new, we say); and if he behaved fairly decently through the date(s), be the bigger person girl!

Smart Choice
Despite fantasising over the likes of Brad Pitt, it seems women are genetically programmed to pick brains over good looks when it comes to choosing a mate, according to a study at the University of Ulm in Germany. Scientists say this sexual selection process of weeding out the least intelligent of the species has resulted in the human brain tripling in size over the past 2.5 million years.

Try Something New
Want to give a tired relationship a new spark? Bring something new to bed. Why not try stripping? Get yourself a DVD of ‘Striptease’ and watch Demi Moore (right) carefully.

Guaranteed result: You’ll shock yourself a little; AND you’ll get him shaken and stirred.

Can’t make that big a move? Try new sexy lingerie...
