Why Not Try Fruits Instead of Pfizer?!!

Image
By John Smith Since the creation of enhancement pills, many a good man has been completely religious to the idea that this is the only way to go. When Pfizer Viagra first hit the pharmacy shelves in 1998, it was received with mixed feelings some of doubt, some of excitement, and some of fear. Yet today it's become such a widely recognized name for the cure of ED, that it's hard to miss it. Most men are quick to rush to the doctor for a prescription for the little blue pill as soon as they notice that things are not going as they should be, and while there are times when a Viagra prescription may be required for genuine ED reasons, most of the times you can boost your masculine libido by natural means, that way you don't have to worry about any nasty side effects or other problems. Fruits produce one such avenue for boosting libido. Some of these fruits are: Watermelon is top of the list of stimulating fruits. It has received world acclaim in recent times as the ...

Meat and fish are useful for men

Image
Men, especially the elderly, can get a lot of benefits for physical and mental health if they are dieting based on meat and fish. In a study of Japanese scientists, which lasted seven years, attended by more than 1,000 elderly men. Volunteers who "leaned" on meat and fish, thus reducing by 39 percent the risk of reducing the mental and physical functions (compared with men who did not practically eat animal protein). Unfortunately, the same trend was not seen in women. Initially, participants were asked to give details about their diet, including the consumption of animal protein. Health status, as well as social and intellectual aspects of volunteers was recorded twice - at the beginning of the study and seven years later. The volunteers were divided into four groups, depending on how much meat and fish are eating. At the end of about a quarter of the study participants showed a decline of intellectual and other skills. Basically this sad trend was observed among those...

Why do men masturbate?

Image
Sexologists say that 90% of adult men masturbate periodically. With single men is clear, but why is it necessary for those who have a permanent partner? What is the reason? Lonely. Well this is, in principle, has been said. You are on a business trip, visiting mom at work, you have the critical days, you're at it for something blows, but you never know there is more reasons. What now, in elementary pleasures deny yourself? Wrong time. Say you had a hard day, you're tired, went to bed early. And if you suddenly wake up from rhythmic movements near, do not rush to turn on the lights and start to resent. On the side of your man is, one might say, caring, he did not bother you in the name of his libido. So just select one of the two behaviors. Or gently whisper in your ear, "Oh, you're ready, I see - well, I do not mind" - and join. Or convince yourself that you all primereschilos awake and sleep on. In any case, can not go wrong. Lazily. Reverse situation: ...

What can I expect from a Good Hair Treatment Clinic

Image

You should first look for a clinic that can offer free consults to work out what treatment will be best for your hair loss, as well as clinics that can guide you through a range of different treatments and services. The best hair treatment clinics will also be able to advise and perform hair transplant surgeries, after assessing your suitability for an operation.

Lung cancer and stigma: The USA's biggest cancer

Image
The USA's biggest cancer killer gets a disproportionately small share of public attention and research dollars. One big reason is that lung cancer is seen largely as a self-inflicted "smoker's disease," says a new report from FairWarning, a nonprofit online publication. The fact that many people with the disease die too quickly to become advocates for their own cause also plays a role. With many dying within a few months, "there's not much time to fit a walkathon in," one expert says. Lice treatment: A new prescription lotion for head lice called ivermectin left 75% of kids pest-free two weeks after one treatment in a new study, meaning it may work better than older remedies. But it wasn't tested directly against other treatments and lacks long-term safety data. So some experts say it's still a last resort.

Syphilis epidemic rising in the Canada and U.S.

Image
The resurgence of syphilis has risen dramatically over the past 20 years in the United States and Canada --- from 177 cases in 1993 to 1,750 cases in 2010. It is temporarily shutting down the porn industry in Southern California. Adult Production Health & Safety Services (APHSS) sounded the alarm about "recent unsubstantiated rumors of syphilis among adult performers." The usual annual testing for syphilis is in September, but because of the alarm the agency opened up their semi-annual syphilis testing immediately. Other sexually transmitted diseases, such as gonorrhea and chlamydia, are also on the rise. According to Huffington Post, " Syphilis infection rates jumped by 18 percent from 2010 to 2011, and there was also a five percent increase in chlamydia and 1.5 percent increase in gonorrhea cases." And truthfully, the syphilis outbreak cluster among California porn performs is not surprising because of their business. But sexually transmitted diseases ar...

There are just as many cases of male infertility as there are of female infertility . However, due to the complexity of the reproductive process, there are many more causes of female infertility than there are causes of male infertility.

Depression And Substance Abuse

Image
Substance abuse disorders (including alcohol and prescription drugs) frequently co-exist with depression. Substance abuse must be discontinued in order to clarify the diagnosis and maximize the effectiveness of psychiatric interventions. Additional treatment is necessary if the depression remains after the substance use and withdrawal effects have ended. Individuals or family members with concerns about the co-occurence of depression with another illness or chemical dependency, should discuss these issues with the physician. Many factors can contribute to depression. Some people become depressed for a combination of reasons. For others, a single factor appears to trigger depression. Some become depressed for no apparent reason. Regardless of the cause, depression needs to be diagnosed and rated. Check any symptoms experienced for more than 2 weeks. If four or more of the symptoms for depression or mania have been checked, physical and psychological evaluation by a physician and...

Do not Sit on Your Wallet

Image
This is something which we are not focusing in our daily life but can produce multiple problems in spine especially for those who have long sitting hours. Make sure that when you sit in your office chair your wallet should be not in your back pocket (Not only Wallet don't sit with anything in your back pocket). Your wallet can be real pain for your back and the waist, and it can even lead to shooting pains down the legs. Sitting on a wallet for prolonged hours every day can compress sciatic nerve which passes beneath piriformis muscle and leads to piriformis syndrome, low back pain and self-inflicted sciatica. The wallet acts as a wedge that forces the pelvis, spine and body out of alignment. Just as you would not sit on a brief case or a rock for an extended period of time, you should not sit on your wallet. Anyone who drives more than a half hour sitting on a wallet is a candidate for sciatica or back pain. The healthiest option is to move the wallet to your front pocket. I...

Workout for Lower Abs

Image
Lower abs is situated in the lower part of belly. It is considered a problem area by people who are working over abdominal muscles since a long time. Belly fat tends to accumulate more in this area. Hardly would you have heard from anyone complaining about their upper abdominal fat, rather people always grumble about their lower abdominal fat. So at times, it definitely becomes quite frustrating for people who perform endless exercises for a flat toned abdominal region yet never get to see visible results. There are numerous reasons contributing for this: Majority people follow traditional exercises, not knowing if it is suitable for them or not. Every human body differs structurally. Hence, every individual requires an exercise schedule made serving to his body needs only. Some people do not pay much attention to the food supplements. Some go on a crash diet dreaming for a fast fat reduction and hence experiencing malnutrition. While some of them keep on eating unnecessary fats, whi...

Types Of Drug And Alcohol Treatment

Image
There are several levels of drug and alcohol treatment. Before we look for a drug rehab or alcohol treatmentalcohol treatment program, we have to look at the level of care needed for the severity of the problem. Just as there are various levels of use of mood altering drugs, there are various levels of treatment. Here are some levels of care and examples of what may be appropriate for a situation. Brief Therapy/Intervention - This is usually a very short duration program, but can be very effective. Perhaps a person who really is not involved with alcohol over does it one time on a birthday or New Years and is caught on their first DUI. They may be mandated to attend alcohol classes where education is provided for a few weeks. Detoxification - The idea that this is treatment is a common misconception. The purpose of a 'Detox' is to safely monitor and de-escalate an incident of intoxification. Generally, as soon as you are medically stable (which is not recovery treatment) ...

Definition Of Addiction

Image
How many legitimate definitions of addiction are there? There are hundreds-literally hundreds. Which one is the best? Actually, there are several good ones. Read on. Morse & Flavin's (RM Morse,DK Flavin JAMA, 1992 Am Med Assoc) definition of addiction represents the one traditionally utilized by treatment centers and substance abuse counselors. It is very good and touches all of the bases. Published in The Journal of the American Medical Association, Vol. 68, No.8, Morse & Flavin defined addiction thusly (paraphrased for simplicity): Addiction is a primary, progressive, chronic disease with genetic, psychosocial, and environmental factors influencing its development and manifestations. The disease is often progressive and fatal. It is characterized by impaired control over use of the substance, preoccupation with the substance, use of the substance despite adverse consequences, and distortions in thinking. Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (1994) ...

Liver Cancer Screening, Study Doubts Value

Image
Screening people with alcoholic liver damage for signs of cancer may not be worth the expense or other downsides, a new report says. Alcoholism can lead to cirrhosis, or scarring, of the liver. People with cirrhosis have a higher-than-average risk of developing liver cancer, but it is not clear whether screening people with cirrhosis for the cancer extends lives. In the new study, Danish researchers found that for alcoholic cirrhosis patients in their country, the risk of liver cancer is so low that screening may not be justified. Of nearly 8,500 Danish adults hospitalized for alcoholic cirrhosis, the chance of developing liver cancer in the next five years was 1 percent, the study found. That's well below the risk that justifies cancer screening, based on U.S. guidelines for cost-effectiveness. In the U.S., an abdominal ultrasound would typically cost a few hundred dollars. Follow-up tests, if needed, could cost much more. But there are more than costs to consider when i...

Seven Point Weight Loss Strategy

Image
You must have undergone a lot of crash programs to lose weight but the extra pounds keep coming back. It's not that you just need to work for a few days control your diet and then let the weight return. There needs to be a strategy in place instead of a plan. The short term weight loss courses available in abundance in the market are not only short lived but are also dangerous for the health of an individual. It's not always necessary that you follow some old advice from a medical book that had been written when obesity was in its infancy. Times have changed and so have many habits of individuals. While going in for shopping we tend to look at the ingredients of the packaged stuff that we are buying. Very few people know that food items that have numbers etched on them are quite high on fats and preservatives that will not really go down well with your health. You need to make sure that you purchase food items that are low on fats and preservatives. Make it a practice for the...

Men's desks are germier than women's

Image
You'd probably rather not think about it, but there are hundreds of species of bacteria on your desk, according researchers who sampled offices in three U.S. cities. The study identified at least 500 species of bacteria in the offices, and found that men's offices tended to be germier than women's. And although offices in New York City and San Francisco had similar types of bacteria, those in the Golden State were less contaminated than those in the Big Apple, the researchers said. But don't go running for the hand sanitizer just yet although the findings have an "ick" factor, bacteria in your office are not necessarily something to worry about, the researchers said. After all, many bacteria are harmless, and actually helpmaintain human health. "You shouldn't be worried in your own office it's you; it's just a reflection of who you are," said study researcher Scott Kelley, an associate professor of biology at San Diego State Unive...

Cialis And Similar Yet Natural Alternatives

Image
BY: Nitin Vaghela Cialis is a drug that is used in the treatment of Erectile Dysfunction (ED). The problem is more common in older men although men of any age can suffer. How it works A complicated series of actions and reactions must occur for a man to gain and maintain an erection. The end result is that chemicals are released in order to relax certain muscles and allow blood flow to the penis to increase, thus causing erection. Erection ceases when a chemical called phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) is released and breaks down the other chemical, causing the blood flow to decrease and the penis to return to its flaccid state. Cialis' active ingredient is Tadalafil. This works to inhibit PDE5, meaning the chemicals that cause increased blood flow to the penis remain intact for longer, resulting in a longer asting erection. Is it Safe? As with any medication, men need to consult a doctor before using Cialis. Because tadalifil is a blood thinner, there are certain medicati...
