Looking for a way to bring diversity to your sex life and further ignite sparks in your marriage or relationship?

American researchers at OnePoll studied over 2000 people and results of their findings show that people who like hot foods like it hot in the bedroom too. According to their findings as reported on New York post, those who enjoy and prefer spicy food have twice the amount of sex that people who don't have.

That's to say; if people who like spicy food do it 12 times in a month, those who do not would have sex only six times all month long.
