Health / Techniques To Stop Premature Ejaculation - These Amazing Tips Will Make You Last by emydedon: 10:45am On Aug 11, 2013
Hungry kisses, passionate caressing and touching plagues your brain then suddenly the magic spell disappeared because you had premature ejaculation. Come to think of it, it certainly ruins the mood especially for women who are in bed with you.

Premature ejaculation is quite a common dilemma that men face when they are having sexual activity. It is embarrassing and can make you lose face in front of the person you want to share your bed with. It can lead to many problems that further complicate your social and sexual life. You may suffer diminished self-esteem; make unhappy and unsatisfied partners and the worst of it all you will be labeled as "not man enough." All of these for what seems like a pretty simple problem of reaching that orgasmic platform too early that your partner has not tasted half of the pleasure from sex alone. I understand you completely and I want to point out that you are not alone. At least about 10 to 15 percent of the male population will experience this prematurity and unfortunately, you became part of this meager population. But, do not lose hope because you are about to discover a way to free yourself from the bondage that this problem is causing you.

Develop a Pattern of Thrusting

There are techniques during sexual intercourse that focuses on stimulating your partner more than yourself. It is a well-known fact that women takes longer to stimulate and arouse than men therefore you should realize that you need the time to excite her first before exciting yourself. The first method would be in your thrusting. Do not give in to deep thrusting at the first cycle of sexual intercourse. But, do combine deep and shallow thrusting all throughout the entire duration. It is one of the most commendable techniques in order for you to avoid getting too much excitation thereby preventing premature ejaculation. Start by shallow thrusts because this will stimulate not your penis but your partner's most sensitive areas around and a couple inches inside the vagina. Now, you can go deep thrusting to make her want for more but return to the shallow thrusting if you do not trust yourself enough not to reach the orgasmic platform. Let me tell you, it is too easy to lose yourself when you are thrusting deeply. Make your partner reach the plateau first and follow through because compared to you, women takes longer to reach it.

Avoid Being too Pressured

Anxiety over your performance on bed will likely make you lose your focus entirely. This is one of the major problems for most young men who have had little sexual experience. But, if you already achieve that phase of advance experience and you still suffer premature ejaculation, this is where the problem of anxiety comes in. You will not be able to focus on the pleasure you are giving because you are too engrossed on thinking that you will disappoint her. Now, the best (if you are man enough to admit it) technique would be to find a partner who is open minded and is willing to help you. This may be a tough challenge but if you really want to be man enough then you should talk this issue over with her. Besides, if you base your relationship not on sex alone then it would be easy to open up. This will totally remove your anxiety because your partner understands and is willing to help you last longer.

Health / 5 Ways To Last Longer In Bed...... by emydedon: 9:07pm On Aug 09, 2013
Like I said, most guys are looking for ways to last longer in bed.
This article provides several proven techniques for stopping premature ejaculation.
1. Put an end to poor masturbation habits. Bad masturbation habits one of the leading causes of premature ejaculation. The reason is that most teenage guys masturbate with the goal of ejaculating as quickly as possible. When you’re alone in the bathroom, checking out a dirty magazine, or watching an adult film, what’s the motivation to keep it going for 15, 30, 45 or 60 minutes? If you’re one of those guys who goes into the shower and “rubs one out” in a few minutes, you need to put a stop to that bad habit pronto. That bad habit could be preventing you from lasting longer in bed.
2. Use extra lubrication. Here’s a quick tip that can help you last longer tonight. Using extra lubrication will help decrease the sensitivity and the pleasurable sensations. Yeah, it’ll still feel good of course, but there won’t be as much friction, so it won’t be as intense.
3. Wear a condom. Wearing a condom is of course always a good idea if you’re not with a long-term partner (and not looking to have a kid any time soon). Wearing a condom also helps to dampen the sensation enough to help you last longer. There are also some specialty condoms on the market that are specifically made to help stop premature ejaculation.
4. Focus on your breathing. Focusing on your breathing while in bed is a great and often overlooked tip that can help you last longer. It works for two reasons: it takes your mind away from any performance concerns, and it physically calms your body, which helps you regain control. Here’s a more specific tip about specifically what you should focus on when paying attention to your breathing: exhale when you’re thrusting in, and inhale when you’re pulling out. Trust me, this one works like gangbusters.
5. Practice meditation. To take it a step further, you should focus on your breathing in your everyday life. It’ll not only help you last longer, it’ll improve your overall happiness and well-being. The best way to start is to take a few minutes out of your day to just sit there are breath in and out. Make sure your belly is expanding. And aim for about 4-5 seconds in and 5-6 seconds out. If you can fit in 10 to 20 minutes a day, your stress levels will really start to decrease. Having the ability to get into this “meditative state” will do wonders for your sexual stamina.

Health / Earliest Signs Of Pregnancy - The Shocking Truth by emydedon: 4:48pm On Jun 09, 2013
Whether you're planning on a baby or not, there are a few early pregnant symptoms that will answer the question, "Am I Pregnant?" These earliest signs of pregnancy can be easy to spot. If not, you can always take a pregnancy test.

The most common indication that you could possibly be pregnant is a missed period. Keeping track of your menstrual cycles can cut down on all the guess work but, you still may not know for sure. Besides missing a period, there are a few symptoms to look for.

If you have nausea and or vomiting, you may be experiencing one of the earliest signs of pregnancy. While this symptom can add stress & possibly embarrassing moments to your everyday life, it should only last during the first trimester. If you're still experiencing nausea and/or vomiting further into your second and third trimesters you should talk to your doctor about possible medications.

Your changing hormone levels are the main culprit for most of the earliest signs of pregnancy. Breast tenderness or swollen breasts may begin to be a bother. What can you do to relieve pain? The best thing to do is buy a more supportive bra. Keep in mind that your breasts will become larger throughout pregnancy so, buy a larger size to accommodate for this change during your nine months of pregnancy.

The once pleasant smell of a candle or perfume may now seem like toxic gas. Your sensitivity to smell is most likely caused by the rising levels of HCG hormones in your body. Your sense of smell, taste may seem quite strange and unfamiliar because of the sensitivity from the hormones, this is indeed an experience that some mothers will notice when pregnant.

Are you suddenly sleepy all the time? Fatigue is a common sign of pregnancy. While the cause is not entirely known, most signs point to hormones. Remember, your body is creating life. Growing a baby is exhausting work. While you may still have all your normal responsibilities of life it is important to listen to your body. Don't over-exhaust yourself and stress with the daily chores, let your husband and family help out whenever they can to ease the work load.

Due to your bodies rising blood flow, you will need to use the bathroom more often. Frequent urination will be one of the first signs of pregnancy and last until the very end. You may be getting up several times during the night to urinate losing even more sleep.

Many women may not experience any of these symptoms. If you're still wondering, "Am I pregnant?" after reviewing these early pregnant symptoms, a pregnancy test is a relativity easy way to find out or a visit to your doctor.
Romance / Unhappy In Bed? Should You Talk To Your Partner? by emydedon: 12:47pm On May 24, 2013
Are you in a relationship? If you are, are you currently happy with your sex life or the level of intimacy that you and your partner share? If not, you may be unsure as to how to proceed. You may be interested in talking to your partner, but you may also be nervous and fearful at the same time.

So, is it a good idea to let your partner know that you are unhappy in bed? Of course it is. A dull or boring sex life can have a negative impact on a relationship. It is also important to note that an open line of communication is an important component of a happy and healthy relationship, both in the physical and emotional sense. If you cannot talk to your partner about sex, how do you honestly expect your relationship to continue on?

As it was previously stated, communication is key to a successful relationship and not just in the bedroom. If you can talk to your partner about sex, you can likely talk to them about anything. This means that your relationship is less likely to suffer from a lack of communication or poor communication. This may translate into less arguments and more time in the bedroom.

Another reason why you should talk to your partner if you are currently unhappy with the intimacy received is because it will improve. The last thing that your partner wants to hear is that they aren’t providing you with enough pleasure and excitement. As soon as your wants, needs, and desires are openly discussed, your intimacy levels may skyrocket. It is also important to note that you will eventually end up being more satisfied in bed.

Another reason why all intimacy problems should be discussed with your partner is because they too can be satisfied more. When you do bring about the discussion of sex but sure not to just focus on your wants, needs and desires. Ask your partner for input as well. They may have their own suggestions. To have a happy and healthy relationship, as well as sex life, both of you need to be satisfied. Pleasure should not be one sided only.

Although there are a number of pros and cons to talking about your unhappiness in bed with your partner, there are also a number of downsides to doing so as well. One of those being difficulty. For many men and women, the subject of sex can be discomforting to talk about. Add in the fact that you are expressing displeasure or the need for change and an uncomfortable situation may ensure.

It is also important to note that talking about your unhappiness in bed can also have an adverse, negative effect on your relationship. Yes, it is important to have an open line of communication in any serious relationship, but there are some things that people just do not want to hear. Do not be surprised if your partner gets defensive when talking to you. In fact, you may want to prepare for it. It is natural for both men and women to get defensive when they are essentially being told that their sex isn’t good enough and needs improvement.

If you do decide to talk to your partner about improving your intimacy in the bedroom, just be sure to use caution and your best judgment. Do not criticize your partner and try to not make them feel inadequate. Gently approaching the situation has a number of benefits, including the elimination of hurt feelings. It also better allows you to have an open, honest, and mature discussion.

As a reminder, there are a number of pros and cons to talking to your partner about your unhappiness with your intimacy. With that being, the end result is often well worth the discussion. Just remember to be careful about your approach, as how you start the conversation and what you say during it may have a significant impact on the outcome.Get more by send a blanket email to greatsextips at listwire.com
Religion / The Power Of Praise And Worship For Infertility by emydedon: 8:55am On May 24, 2013
Today I will love to share with you the importance of Praise and Worship in receiving your blessing from God. Do doctors tell you that you are infertile? Have low or no sperm count?

Have you been told you are too old to have a baby? If you answered "Yes," I am here to tell you that health, happiness, and a new family have all already been guaranteed to you. There is a way to have the child you so desire.

Imagine the sound of a child's laughter filling your home!

Picture having a family that daily brings you all the joy, peace, and love you could have ever dreamed of.

Visualize your baby growing healthily inside of you, ready to lead a full and abundant life with you.

I am here to tell you today that all of these dreams can be a reality, YOUR reality.

The easiest way to obtain victory over all theses situations is to praise and worship God. Praise means to glorify or extol God. To magnify and bless Him.

The Bible tells us that God inhabits the praises of His people. (Psalms 22: 3). What does the word inhabit mean? It means God lives in, dwells in, manifest himself in “the praises of His people. When we praise God, we have the Lord as a boarder, an in-dweller in us.

For many of you who face difficult or seemingly impossible situations, what you need to do is praise God. When you want God to inhabit your circumstances or difficulties you can do nothing better than to praise Him.

For when you praise him you are assured of His abiding presence inhabiting every life situation that may confront you. The only thing you and I can ever offer to God is our praise. We cannot give him money. There is nothing we can give him except praise.

How wonderful it is that God says in Psalms 50: 23 “that he who sacrifices thank-offerings honours me and he prepares the way so that I may show him the salvation of God.” So you see when you start to offer God a sacrifice of praise these are some of the benefits available to you.

Benefits of praise.

Praise unlocks the windows of Heaven Praise causes doubt to flee Praise brings down showers of blessings Praise brings down the love and peace of God Praise brings freedom from bondage Praise changes every situation Praise establishes your heart in God and brings God into the circumstances Praise is the master key to God’s store house

When you become established in praise you become a true worshipper of God - and you thus prepare your way to reap God’s blessings. In writing on praise, I would like to share from the Bible about David. May the Holy Spirit quicken your understanding and help you understand the truth of the power of praise in Jesus’ name.

DAVID What was David’s secret? All his confidence and trust was in the Lord. His boasting was not of any man, but it was of the Lord. David said to Goliath, “You come against me with swords and spear and javelin, but I come against you in the name of the Lord Almighty”. (I Samuel 17: 45)

We see in the life of David a beautiful example of God’s hand of protection overshadowing and preserving him from destruction. In his youth David was attacked by lions and bears and later in life he encountered a giant (Goliath) on the field of battle. Against all these overwhelming odds, David was not killed but rather he destroyed those that were bent on destroying him. David said, “All those gathered here will know that it is not by sword or spear that the Lord saves. For the battle is the Lord’s and he will give all of you into our hands.” (I Samuel 17: 47)

You can learn from David; his boasting and confidence was not of what any human could do, it was based on what God could do for him. David lived a life of praise; In the Bible there are Psalms of praise, written by David to God. In Psalms 34: 1, he declared: “I will bless the Lord at all times; his praise shall continually be in my mouth.”

This was his secret, God’s praise. David knew the power of praise. He knew God dwelt in our praises and nothing could stop him praising God. David listed some of God’s benefits to him for his life of praise as:

Redemption from destruction, Forgiveness for all our sins, healing of all diseases.

David attributed all theses benefits to his continued praise to God. God fights our battles when we praise him. As you start to praise Him, He will fight for you.

Praise is the Christian’s gun of battle. When the battles of life rage hard, the Christian who is fully armed with praise is well clothed for battle. God has commanded us to give him praise at all times. His praise should be to be continually on our lips. When God’s praise is continually on your lips you cannot be defeated. I encourage all the couples who face impossible situations to lift up their voices in praise of God. As you do that the peace and glory of God will come upon you. You say that you don’t know how to praise God.

The Psalms are full of praise songs. You can use Psalm 100, 159, 150, 117 to praise God. When I started my walk with God, all I knew was “glory to God” and I used to repeat that over and over again and the glory of God used to hit me so hard that I could hardly move. Praise him any way you know. The important thing is the heart of the person who is praising. As you praise Him, His blessing flows into your life.


Summary:
You praise will bring you victory when facing infertility or difficult problems

Health / Tips For Dealing With Attention Dysfunction Problems by emydedon: 1:05pm On May 22, 2013
In the age of Viagra, you'd think that erectile dysfunction would be a thing of the past. Unfortunately, it's not the case. Erectile dysfunction problems still occur and millions of men worldwide still suffer from this condition.

Erectile dysfunction is also known as impotence and the very word itself does not connote pleasant things. While it's not often discussed, erectile dysfunction is fairly common - in the U.S. alone, at least 10 million men have serious erectile dysfunction problems and the number of men experiencing impotence increase with age. So how do you deal with a very private problem?

Knowing erectile dysfunction
It's normal for men to lose their erection sometimes. It is only when the erection is not sustained in order to have sex at least half of the time does the lack of fullness and hardness becomes a problem. Erectile dysfunction or ED is a condition in which erection that is sufficient for sexual penetration or satisfaction is not attained by a man. It is not the same as loss of sexual appetite, lack of orgasm or premature ejaculation.

Dealing with erectile dysfunction problems
Erectile dysfunction may be caused by different factors. Some of these factors may be psychological problems or medical problems. Stress, for example, is a common cause of erectile dysfunction. Difficulties at home or at work can cause impotence and so will certain ailments. If you're unsure of what your main problem is, here are some things you can do:


Manage or stop drug use
Erectile dysfunction problems may even be caused by drug use, whether for recreation or for treatment. Drugs such as hormones, tricyclic anti-depressants, muscle relaxants, diuretics, beta-blockers and H2 blockers are common culprits. Addictive substances may also cause problems. To solve your erectile problems, talk to your doctor about possible alternatives. If you're using recreational drugs, you might want to stop.

Manage your disease
Erectile dysfunction problems are sometimes caused by certain diseases and conditions. Diabetes mellitus is to blame for about 40% of ED problems in the U.S. while vascular diseases account for 30%. Surgeries involving the pelvis or genitals can also cause impotence and so can injuries to the spinal cord, endocrine problems and multiple sclerosis.

Use drugs and other devices
There are drugs that may be used to treat the physical problems of impotence, which may be taken orally or through injections. Sildenafil (brand name Viagra) may be prescribed and used safely, as long as you are not taking nitrates for heart problems. There are also drugs that are injected directly into the penis and produce an erection that could last about one hour.

Some devices, such as vacuum or constriction rings, can be very helpful in getting and keeping an erection. There are also implants that are inserted into the man's penis that may either be semi-rigid or inflatable, allowing more control. There are many different kinds and styles of these devices and are very useful if the erectile dysfunction problem is due to physical cause.

Get counseling
If a man has erectile dysfunction, he doesn't have to suffer in secret. Erectile dysfunction can cause a man to lose confidence and may even lead to relationship problems. Counseling, whether just for the man or with his partner, can be very helpful, especially when there is a need for reassurance for overcoming the causes. At times like these, a man will need all the support and love he needs, especially coming from his partner.
Health / Reasons Why Pregnant Women Consume Food Rich In Sugar: How To Avoid It by emydedon: 3:56pm On May 21, 2013
One of the biggest problems why women like to consume sugar during pregnancy is because it is socially acceptable, unlike other habits. Many women are pressured to give up most of their habits for nine months due to concern for their baby's health and well-being. This is why many pregnant women give in to their cravings and eat sugary foods even if it may be unhealthy for them and the baby.

The Disadvantages of Excessive Sugar Intake

Eating foods with refined sugar is bad for anyone's health due to several reasons. Too much sugar intake causes extreme weight gain, gum disease, tooth decay, elevation in blood sugar, diabetes, and many more health problems. Pregnant women have greater risks of absorbing more sugar into the bloodstream. This causes their pancreas to work overtime to regulate blood pressure levels. If the pancreas fails, blood sugar levels will increase and cause many health problems, especially during pregnancy. This may even lead to gestational diabetes.

Healthy Alternatives

Due to the potential health issues they may encounter, pregnant women should be more careful when it concerns their health. There are healthy alternatives that can provide the sweet taste that pregnant women crave without consuming too much sugar. Some healthy options are fresh fruits that provide natural sweetness without added sugar. Honey and plain yogurt are other nutritious alternatives for the mother and baby. Instead of drinking soda, coffee, and other unhealthy beverages, fruit juice and fresh water is much better.

Artificial Sweeteners

Artificial sweeteners can be added to specific foods and beverages to increase or maintain their sweetness without using real sugar. Aspartame is an example of an alternative sweetener for people who want to lessen their caloric intake. It is made up of two amino acids called aspartic acid and phenylalanine. The artificial sweetener is present in dietary beverages and sugar-free candy.

Staying Healthy During Pregnancy

Pregnant women must be cautious when choosing what to eat or drink to protect the health and development of the baby. The American Pregnancy Association notes that using aspartame is beneficial for individuals attempting to lose weight. Pregnant women must exert more effort if they want to stay healthy and fit. Pregnant women can drink beverages containing aspartame in moderation. Just like any other food products, too much intake will always be harmful to the body.

Pregnancy is one of the most difficult stages a woman may experience in her life. She must not only be concerned with her general health, but the well being of the child within her as well. Nurturing the health of the unborn child for 9 months is important for child labor and lesser risks. One of the best ways to stay health during pregnancy is to eat nutritional foods.

There may be some issues and debates related to aspartame and pregnancy, but many research materials and studies show that it is safe to use. For more assurance, pregnant women must discuss their food intake and the effects of aspartame with a doctor. This is to ensure they stay healthy and avoid unnecessary health problems during pregnancy.
Health / Feed Your Baby's Brain During Pregnancy by emydedon: 1:20pm On May 19, 2013
Hello Mothers To Be,
Certain foods have been proven to positively affect your baby's memory and capacity to learn, and others can hinder proper brain development. Here, what to eat and what to avoid while you're pregnant.

Pop Your Prenatal Vitamin Daily

Taking it will help ensure that you get the balance of nutrients your baby needs, like folic acid and vitamin B12 to make red blood cells, vitamin C to produce collagen, vitamin D for bone building, and zinc for brain development. If your vitamin upsets your stomach, don't just ditch it: Try taking it with a meal, or talk to your doctor about switching brands.
Get Omega-3s

Fish, rich in omega-3 fatty acids, may boost your baby's brainpower. In a study from Harvard Medical School, the more fish women ate during the second trimester, the higher their babies scored on a mental-development test at 6 months of age. Omega-3s are found in brain-cell membranes, so there are plenty of ways they can influence brain function, says Lisa Eliot, PhD, assistant professor at Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science, in Chicago. If you don't like fish, talk to your doctor about taking a fish-oil supplement.
Be Mindful of Mercury

Fish is good for your baby's brain, but you do need to take a few precautions. Mercury contamination in some fish may be harmful. The Food and Drug Administration advises all pregnant women to avoid shark, tilefish, king mackerel, and swordfish completely, since they contain the highest levels. Some lower-mercury options: salmon, catfish, pollack, whitefish, tilapia, and shrimp. Even with these varieties, you should limit all fish to 12 ounces (about two meals) per week. And opt for canned light tuna over canned white albacore, which has more mercury.
Munch on Fruits and Veggies

Produce contains antioxidants, which are good for your baby. "Antioxidants protect the baby's brain tissue from damage," says nutritionist Elizabeth Somer, RD, author of Nutrition for a Healthy Pregnancy. Choose deep-colored produce -- like dark leafy greens, papaya, blueberries, and tomatoes -- for the biggest antioxidant punch. Just remember to wash all fruits and vegetables thoroughly, even fruits that have a rind (since cutting it will drag germs through the flesh).
Avoid Alcohol

Though fetal alcohol syndrome is associated with heavy alcohol abuse during pregnancy, even moderate amounts of beer, wine, or liquor can harm a baby's brain, according to the March of Dimes. Light to moderate drinking can lead to problems with learning, attention, memory, and social skills down the road.
Boost Protein

Your body needs more protein right now to build cells and make hormones for your growing baby. In fact, your protein intake must jump by 10 extra grams per day. Some good protein boosters: a yogurt smoothie at breakfast, a cup of bean soup at lunch, peanut butter on whole-grain crackers for a snack, or a 3-ounce portion of lean beef (tenderloin and sirloin are good choices) at dinner.
Pump Up Iron

Your iron intake needs to double during pregnancy, since iron helps deliver life-sustaining oxygen to your baby. Trouble is, many women enter pregnancy already deficient, says Somer. If your baby's deprived of oxygen in the womb, the risk of poor growth -- and lower IQ -- increases. Ask your doctor to test you for iron deficiency. Then make sure your diet includes iron-rich foods like lean beef, chicken, legumes, and fortified breakfast cereal.
Don't Gain Too Much

You're eating for two now, but packing on too many pounds during pregnancy ups your chances of a premature delivery -- and babies born early may be at a disadvantage when it comes to learning. "Premature delivery is one of the greatest risk factors for mental impairment," says Dr. Lise Eliot. "There's a strong link between birth weight, IQ score, and school achievement." What's the connection? Babies born early miss out on the unique nourishment that the placenta provides, are exposed to stimuli they're normally protected from in the womb, and are more vulnerable to infection. To keep your weight healthy, follow these guidelines:

If you're currently a normal weight, gain 25-35 pounds.
f you're currently overweight, gain 15-25 pounds.
If you're currently underweight, gain 28-40 pounds.

Watch For Food Poisoning

Toxoplasmosis, an illness caused by a parasite found in undercooked meat and eggs, produces flulike symptoms for the mom but potentially devastating consequences for the baby -- including blindness, hearing loss, and mental retardation. To help prevent it:

Wash your hands, cutting boards, and knives in hot, soapy water before and after preparing food.
Cook meats to at least 160 degrees F.
At restaurants, don't order meats rare or medium rare.
Skip tiramisu and Caesar salad dressing made with raw eggs.

Health / The Best Foods For Pregnant Women by emydedon: 12:18pm On May 18, 2013
Being pregnant is the fulfilment of every woman's dream and, indeed, a very exciting phase. But unfortunately, not all pregnant women have knowledge on what they should eat and what they shouldn't. Many people, for a fact, know that everything that a pregnant woman eats will also be the food that the baby inside the tummy will be digesting, and this is the reason why future mothers must see to it that they eat the right kind of foods. The following are some of the foods that should be in the list of all expecting mothers:

1. Avocado. Avocados are very rich in vitamins, such as folic acid, are perfect for pregnant women as it is essential in the development of the nervous system and brain of the baby. It also has vitamin C, potassium and vitamin B6 that aids in the growth of the baby's brain and tissues. When eating whole grain bread, avocado spread is a great alternative for mayonnaise. However, avocados are also packed with fat (but it's a good one though), which means that this should only be taken in large amounts if you are trying to gain weight during pregnancy.

2. Broccoli. If you want your baby to have stronger bones, broccoli should regularly be included in your diet. It has lots of vitamin C, A, folic acid and, of course, calcium. It can either be stir-fried with chicken or seafood or simply steamed.

3. Carrots. This is packed with vitamin A, which is important in the development of the teeth, eyes and bones of the baby. This can be eaten raw or be included in fresh salads, cakes or meatloaves. Other vitamins that can be found in carrots are vitamin C, B6 and fiber.

4. Eggs. Eggs are rich in protein and DHA. DHA can help a lot in the formation of the retina and brain of the baby.

5. Edamame. Edamame are soybeans that are cooked and they actually taste good. Believe it or not, these beans, which serve as a snack to many, are loaded with vitamin A, vitamin B, folic acid, calcium and protein. Aside from being a snack food, edamame can also be stir-fried or mixed with pasta sauces or soups.

6. Mangoes. If you are not used to eating veggies, you can consider mangoes your best friend during pregnancy. Always treat yourself and your baby with this yummy fruit as it is rich in potassium, vitamin C and vitamin A. You can turn this into shakes, toss in salsas, or eat it simply as it is.

7. Oats. Just as much as the baby inside the womb should always be assured of good condition and good health, expecting mothers should also do the same for themselves. Oats, which are rich in fiber, can reduce the risk of hypertension, diabetes and indigestion. So, if you are aiming for a healthy pregnancy, eat oats daily.

These are only a few of the many nutritious foods that pregnant women should eat during pregnancy. The only thing that you should take note if you want to have a healthy baby inside your womb is to take care of yourself. A healthy mommy is equivalent to having a healthy baby.

Proper nutrition during pregnancy is very important for your health as well as the baby's and you must think of what healthy foods to eat because you will need all the nourishment that you can get. Proper nutrition for you and the baby involves eating foods high in vitamins and minerals.

Here are 5 tips to getting proper nutrition during pregnancy:

1. Good nutrition should be prioritized and you should consult your doctor on what foods to eat for your baby's growth as well for your physical wellness. Proper nutrition begins by going on a balanced diet. Never skip meals and avoid foods that contain caffeine. It is also important to drink lots of water, at least 8 glasses per day.

2. Probably the most important mineral that you need to take is calcium. The suggested amount of calcium needed by pregnant women is 1,200mg. It is 400mg more than the recommended daily intake. Dairy products such as milk, cheese, pudding and yogurts are good sources of calcium. Other sources of calcium include salmon, broccoli, beans and a calcium-enriched orange juice.

3. Folic acid is also essential for proper nutrition during pregnancy. It is important for the baby's fetal brain and spine development. Pregnant women should take at least 400 micrograms of folic acid through their entire pregnancy along with a multivitamin. Good sources of folic acid include peanuts, peanut butter, tofu and cereals. Other sources include green and leafy vegetables, squash and beets.

4. Vitamin B12 is essential for both the mother and the baby's proper brain and nerve functions and vitamin B12 can be found in animal products. For vegetarian mothers, soy milk or organic meat made from soy beans are good replacements.

5. Protein is also essential for pregnant women and protein intake should increase by 10g a day. Animal products like meats, eggs and milk are good sources of protein. Organic sources of protein include soy milk, cereals, legumes and seeds.

Your eating habits generally change throughout every trimester of your pregnancy. On your first trimester your nutritional concerns focus on morning sickness or nausea. Some methods of fighting morning sickness include frequently eating small amounts of food, hungry or not. Eating non-fat foods, foods rich in carbohydrates, potassium and dry foods are also helpful.

You should always remember that proper nutrition during pregnancy is very important for having a healthy body and a healthy baby. It is best that you consult your physician to know more about healthy eating and making healthy dietary choices.

Health / The Dangers Of Viagra by emydedon: 4:01pm On May 16, 2013
Let me start off by saying that I am in no way knocking the importance
of the physical relationship between a man and a woman.
If this interaction ceased to exist, so would the human race.
However, it is important to understand the risks associated
with taking drugs like Viagra for erectile dysfunction.
In this article, we'll cover just what Viagra is, how it works
and what the potential dangers are. Hopefully, after reading
this, you'll be able to make an informed decision as to whether
or not Viagra is the right choice for you.

Viagra is actually the brand name for the generic drug Sildenafil,
which is manufactured by Pfizer, only one of the largest drug companies
in the world. It is used for erectile dysfunction in men who are healthy
enough to have sexual activity. What many people don't know is that a
stronger form of this drug is also used to treat high blood pressure in the lungs.
So it is important to know that you can't substitute one form of this drug for another.

Another thing that people who use, or plan to use, Viagra need to know
is that this drug does not protect against sexually transmitted diseases.
Therefore it is important to use protection during sexual activity even
if you are using this drug.

The drug has to be taken at least 30 minutes before having sexual activity.
Taking it more than 4 hours before sexual activity is too long and the drug
will not be as effective after that amount of time.

Side effects from this drug include stomach upset, headaches, dizziness,
or even light headedness. In more extreme cases, diarrhea is possible.

The real danger of Viagra, is the possible loss of eyesight in one or even both eyes.
This can be temporary or permanent in extreme cases. If you have heart disease,
diabetes or high cholesterol or a history of eye problems, this risk is greatly increased.
Also, in combination with certain drugs that contain nitroglycerin or isosorbide,
fatalities may occur.

If you're going to take Viagra, this drug can only be prescribed by a doctor
who will first examine you to determine if you can take Viagra safely.
If you have any of the conditions mentioned above, most likely your
doctor will not prescribe Viagra for your condition.

The truth is, most forms of erectile dysfunction can be treated naturally.

The dangers of Viagra are quite real. Know the facts
before you decide to take this drug.

To YOUR Health,

The general yeast infection facts that you must
know…
What is yeast?
Yeast is a fungus, so it is a close cousin of mushrooms, toadstools,
truffles and puffballs. According to current scientific research, over
100,000 different types of fungus have already been identified, but
some estimates suggest that as many as 1.5 million different strains of
fungi could exist.
Fungi are not plants, because they lack the chlorophyll that is a primary
characteristic of plants. Another factor that distinguishes fungi from
plants is their inability to make their own food.
They inhabit climates that range anywhere from cool to tropical, and
can be found even in the air that we breathe every day. Fungi will most
commonly be found in moist environs, so that they thrive in leftover
foods and fruit materials, damp, windfall leafs, soil, manure, brackish
water and any other similar environment where nourishment is readily
available.
Many fungi are ‘good’ as far as man is concerned. For example, in
addition to mushrooms and truffles, without fungus we would have no
bread or beer, because it is the yeast that is added to the bread or beer
making process that turns it into what it eventually becomes. Without
fungus, the world would be one enormous landfill site, because it is
fungus that breaks down trash and thereby returns it to the constituent
parts that are eventually returned to the soil.
So, fungi have many characteristics for which we should be grateful.
That is not however always true…
You are covered in (and full of) fungus….
Whilst it may sound a bit unpleasant, almost from the moment we are
born, every person on the face of the earth is living in their own
personal primordial soup of micro-organisms such as bacteria, fungi and
yeast. These microbes live on your skin, in your mouth, nose and
digestive tract so that every part of you both externally and internally is
awash with microbes from the moment you are born until you take your
very last breath.
It is estimated that among these micro-organisms that live on and in
you throughout your life, there are several hundred different types of
yeasts. Fortunately, only a very small handful of these yeast cultures
are potentially harmful, with the primary cause of yeast infections being
one particular strain known as Candida albicans
This is a yeast that lives in the mouth, throat, nose, intestines and all
over the skin of most normal human being. It is also considered to be a
normal part of the internal lining of the bowel, and in its normal state
actually helps to ensure that regular, normal bowel movements are
maintained.
Candida albicans first attaches itself to newborn babies either during or
very shortly after birth, but it remains essentially harmless even to a
baby as long as that baby has an immune system that is strong enough
to keep the growth of the yeast culture in check.
By the age of six months, around 90% of babies will test positive for
the presence of Candida albicans. This is why babies whose immune
systems are somehow weakened are often prone to oral thrush in the
first few months of their life, as this is a yeast infection caused by
Candida.
By the time we are adults, almost every person plays host to Candida
albicans. However, for the vast majority of the time, this is not going to
cause any kind of problem at all, any more than any other of the
millions of microbes on your body will do.
This is because for most of the time, there is a balance between all of
these different strains of microbes, and as long as this balance is
maintained, you will remain healthy and infection free. For example,
there are other bacteria on your skin that fight against Candida albicans
for the same food sources, and consequently this keeps the Candida cell
growth in check.
It is only when this balance is somehow upset that the conditions will
prevail whereby a yeast infection can begin to set in.
A general overview of how yeast infections happen…
Yeast infections that occur as a result of Candida albicans are generally
referred to by the group name Candiasis and can take many different
forms. However, the etymology of how such an infection develops is
always pretty similar, irrespective of the particular part of the body that
is under attack.
As a general rule, Candida albicans is a yeast which exists in a single
cell form. In this form, it remains essentially harmless.
However, all fungi are on a constant watch for sources of nutrition, and
once such a nutritional source is located, many millions of these single
cell Candida yeast organisms will gravitate towards that source of
nutrition. When they do so, they become a mold, and it is at this point
where the risk of a yeast infection has begun to develop.
