Stay Relaxed to Stay Sexually Fit

Ever heard of the phrase, “Work is god”, it is very appropriately said by a prudent person. Some people “Work to Live” whereas there are others who “Live to Work”, for them work is top most priority and everything else comes after it. However, in the current scenario, where globalization has taken place in most of the industries, work pressure has increased due to tuff competition. Employees have to improve in terms of quality of their work and have to meet difficult deadlines in order to remain in the competition.
As a result most employees of the corporate world lead a highly stressful life which, however, may cause some health problems which are inevitable considering the amount of stress and pressure involved, not only in office but in home as well. When a person thinks of performing better rather then focusing on the task, he is liable to fail in that task no matter if he is indulging in a project work or sexual activity, for that matter. Studies have shown that ED or erectile dysfunction can be due to psychological causes like anxiety. In other words a person too anxious to perform better while having sexual intercourse may fail even to get a hard and erect penis.
Such an individual must practice relaxation techniques like meditation in order to calm his mind and eliminate all fears pertaining to sexual performance. For it, a relaxed, stress free and happy state of mind is necessary to combat afflictions such as ED. This was a remedy when the cause is psychological in nature however, one must go for drugs like Viagra when he is dealing with a physical cause of ED like nerve damage, diabetes or an artery blockage. Viagra is an FDA approved drug which enables an ED patient to get proper erection, just few hours after its consumption.
Viagra works by relaxing muscles in penile area thereby facilitating rock hard penis. Due to emergence of other drugs in the anti-impotence market the price of viagra have came down, which is good for lower middle class people who were unable to buy viagra in past due to its hefty price. Many cheap viagra pharmacies sell it at affordable prices in your vicinity. Apart from this, one can also buy viagra online and can change his sex life just at a click of a mouse button.

Controlling Diabetes with Exercise New Findings

A new study done on individuals with type II diabetes finds that a combination of aerobic exercise and resistance training may offer the best improvements of HbA1c levels. This study compared the combination exercise to both aerobic alone, resistance exercise alone, or no exercise at all. In the research study the over 250 study subjects were put on a nine-month exercise program that included either aerobic exercise alone, resistance training alone, a combination of both, or no exercise. The exercise groups performed their prescribed program just three times per week. 63% of the subjects were women making this one of the first studies to have a significant effect on women with diabetes. The research done by Dr. Timothy Church at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge will appear in the Journal of the American Medical Association later this year and is part of the preventative medicine biomedicine research group. During the study period the individuals on the combination exercise program had an easier time keeping their HBA1c levels below 7% the generally recommended level for individuals with type II diabetes. In addition fewer people in the combination exercise group needed to take more medications over the study time period than the other three groups. While previous research has highlighted that exercise can dramatically improve both diabetic and non-diabetics health; this research is some of the first to look at optimizing a specific type of exercise program for type II diabetic individuals. Given a limited amount of time any individual has to invest in exercise, say the editorial accompanying the research paper, it is more beneficial to do a combination of aerobic exercise and resistance training rather than simply one type of exercise. It is also important to note, says Dr. Ronal Sigal, who reviewed the paper and participated in the editorial in the Journal of the American Medical Assocation, that when the researchers followed up with the subjects after the study had finished, those on the combination exercise program still had the lowest diabetes medication use. By keeping medication us low, the chances of those individuals having a healthier, longer life, is enhanced greatly. According to Dr. Church, doctors can now look at individuals diagnosed with type II diabetes and tell them that the best prescription for exercise includes a combination of aerobic and resistance training.

Numbers in our Contemporary Life (part1)

From early childhood and throughout the schooling system, we learn the “3R’s”: Reading, Writing and Arithmetic – the science of numbers. (Nowadays, you need to add a fourth “R”– Graphing!). Later, we reach a certain level in our education where were may feel rightly or wrongly (often complacently) that our levels of mastering reading and writing are satisfactory.

However… What about numbers ? Generally, we do not fully realize the extent to which numbers control and regulate our lives. We are all identified by innumerable numbers from birth to the very last moments of our lives. Just reflect only on some of our important dates: birth, starting school, finishing primary school, finishing secondary school, the admission to university and then also with every stage of our education imprinted with our marks, marks and marks (percentages!). Then other numbers: the first love (the date, some of us remember!), dates of: marriage, birth of children, the first work, salaries, divorce, then blood pressure, cholesterol and sugar levels, the first operation, the passing away (not yet?) and so on. These numbers are unique to you and unique to me. They all identify you and identify me.

Some numbers quantify information. These are essential to understanding facts, events, processes, laws etc. The US novelist, Nathanel West, 1903-1940, stated aptly: “Numbers constitute the only universal language”. Studies have shown that even rhesus monkeys can understand the relation between numbers 1 to 9 i.e., they are able to judge whether the specified number is smaller or bigger than the other number.

So, what is the present state of arithmetic ? Unfortunately, most of the people satisfy themselves on a very low level of its cognizance. (As an anecdote, I may tell you that I was approached by a lawyer who asked me: “I have to assign a plaintiff 15% of the amount demanded by defendant; how much is it?”). Most people fear numbers if they require any further calculations: making fractions, multiplying, using proportions or inverse proportions, converting to percentages or substituting to formulas. What are the implications of this fact? It often leads to impaired judgment of the average citizen regarding handling their home economics, investment and, as the case may be, the events in their own country and on our globe. As the citizens of a “global village”, we are all affected by events not only in our place or country but even in far-away-countries. Consider these numbers: people affected by HIV, bird flu, tsunami, price of a barrel of oil, tsunami in financial markets, increasing ozone hole, decreasing shoals of fish in oceans, decreasing number of polar bears, the increase in the average yearly temperature, increasing extinction of species of animals and plants. One can present endless number of examples. The numbers can be puzzling, depressing, shocking, fascinating, mystifying or upsetting. Well, they can be… An educated, intelligent and honest person will perceive them this way. A Polish film director Jerzy Konwicki (renown for his “Ashes and Diamonds”) used to say: “only a cow does not care”.

True, a cow does not know, for example, about the “mad cow” disease and does not understand what it means that a certain percentage of cows are affected by foot-and-mouth disease and blue tongue virus. There are however, unfortunately, also some examples among educated as well as decision making persons, institutions and governments who do not care. They have dubious motives to ignore some numbers (and related facts) they do not like. What will be the consequences of their arrogance to human beings in the future? A Japanese proverb says that more intelligent are those who see further…

Below there are several examples of numbers compiled from the Internet, Time and Trumpet. They may not be exact; however you may find them interesting and worthy of your attention:

65 000 – estimated population of Africa’s black rhinos in 1970
3 600 – estimated population of Africa’s black rhino in 2007
2 000 000 000 000 USD – US cost of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, so far
3 500 000 – Jews murdered in Poland by German Nazis
32 000 000 – population of Poland before II WW; 24 000 000 after the war
1500 – new HIV infections a day in South Africa
1 000 000 – Americans killed yearly by heart attacks (cardiacnetwork.net)
7:2 – ratio of average number of TV sets to children in the USA
1500 – number of hours, the average USA teenager spends watching TV
67% – percentage of Australian and USA men are overweight
1 in 12- South Africans who had access to the Internet in 2007
15-30 000 000 – men suffering from erectile dysfunction (NIH, USA government statistics)
690 000 000 – number of Asians living on $1 or less per day (Asian Dev. Bank)
142.8 – number of women raped per 100 000 in South Africa; 150 per day
66 000 000 – number of people in the USA suffering with arthritis, the most common chronic health problem in the USA
3% – rate of the green gas increasing per year
7 600 000 – number of cancer death worldwide in 2007
5 200 000 – Americans suffer from full-blown diabetes and don’t know it…yet.
14 000 – dolphins killed annually in Japan
400 000 000 – number of people in the world suffering from depression and mental disorders (WHO).

Look again at the numbers. They alone are meaningless. However, together with the descriptive information, they carry powerful information, obviously to those who are intelligent enough to understand them. Unfortunately, it does not mean yet, that those who understand them and have authority to make decision/s to change some of the numbers/trends are willing to act…

Are you already feeling depressed? You should be… You are intelligent…
Till the next time… (2).

PS: While proof reading, my wife counsels me that I have omitted three other important R’s. During a whole life one should learn: Respect for self, Respect for others and Responsibility for your own actions. She is absolutely Right!

Dad exercise diabetes/smoking?

Hello so my dad is 45 years old. He is a heavy smoker maybe pack+ a day he does drink alot. he has diabetes, who was hospitalized for his lungs(pneuomia) at one time. He’s pretty active still, not overweight. He does live a pretty wild life meaning he lives like a young person does and does some things a young adult would do which i know is not very good for his health. I am wondering if he was to start exercising what would be that best way to start? i am not too sure that jogging would be appropriate for him since he has not been use to that type of exercise and wouldnt want to rush into things. SO just wondering if anybody out there has tips is in the same situation for somebody who drinks/smokes. Whats a good start walking? he does lift weights occasionally. Thanks
