Let’s be real: With crazy work lives, making time for friends and bae, and trying to keep up with our ClassPass membership, worrying about your snacking habits sort of feels like the least (albeit, tastiest) of our problems.

But on the flipside, 52 percent of women felt that when they stuck to healthy snacks throughout the day, they were more inclined to get intimate later on. Who knew making solid snack choices was also an aphrodisiac?
