Garlic: Known to have a number of health benefits, garlic is a great aphrodisiac that has no side-effects. This root, works as a tonic for people suffering from a lack of libido, or those who are unable to maintain an erection.

Onion: This root is only second to garlic when it comes to its aphrodisiac properties.
