Though celery gets little glory in the world of manly things to eat, it turns out men would be better off scarfing more of it down than those chicken wings drenched in hot buffalo sauce. The authors of a “Stay Young: Ten Proven Steps to Ultimate Health“ claim that eating celery increases pheromone levels in a man’s sweat, making him more attractive to women. Why? Celery has a naturally-occurring steroid in it – androstenone — which increases the production of pheromones through sweat. The revelation in the book, which includes recommendations such as, “have sex often” and “sleep your way to a younger you,” isn’t new.  It regularly appears on lists for men who want to improve their sexual health. The book also contains a section on fitness. Loading down the celery in thick, fat-laden ranch dressing is not recommended.
