Dr. Alvenia Fulton (1893 to 1999) started Fultonia Health and Fasting Institute on Chicago’s South Side, a combination health food store, restaurant, and herbal pharmacy. Fulton grew up on a farm in Pulaski, Tennessee and later became an ordained minister and doctor of naturopathy. If one reverse engineers her thoughts on nutrition, stress, and the environment, there are great takeaways for improving your sex life. For example, in her newspaper Chicago Defender column, “Eating for Your Health and Strength,” she shares with readers a healthy diet and stress management contributes to having enjoyable sex life more often. Similarly, getting 7 to 8 hours of sleep, time spent with a good therapist doing necessary inside work and in nature improves your sexual experiences. Dr. Fulton’s thoughts on this topic, serve as great ways to self-evaluate your sex life and starting making changes to improve it.
