Health / 7 Reasons To Get Circumcised by JSmart4u(m): 1:15pm On Jan 10, 2016 |
Male circumcision is one of the most hotly debated sexual health issues in the medical community, and it’s also widely discussed among everyday men and women. Why it is such a controversial topic? Well, part of the reason might be because there’s no definitive evidence that being circumcised is better, medically speaking, than being uncircumcised – and vice versa. However, there are certain things that we are sure of when it comes to circumcision, which involves a minor surgical procedure to remove the foreskin (the sleeve of skin around the head of the penis). These factors offer compelling reasons for men to get the snip. Here are some of the advantages of circumcisions: Circumcision does not affect male sexual drive or functioning. When a guy is not circumcised, moisture can get trapped between his penis and the foreskin, which creates an ideal environment for bacteria to grow. This means there’s a higher risk of infection and it’s easier to spread viruses to others. Removing the foreskin gets rid of the wet, warm and dark environment that can sustain viruses such as HIV and other sexually transmitted infections such as syphilis, herpes and cancroids. Being circumcised reduces your female partner’s risk of cervical cancer. By getting circumcised, you not only reduce your own HIV and STI risk, but your partner’s too. It can be difficult to keep an uncircumcised penis fresh 100% of the time. Circumcision simplifies the task of keeping the penis clean and keeps you fresher, giving you more confidence. Some women prefer circumcised joysticks due to personal preference, as well as the reasons listed here. The procedure: What to expect and recovery time A medical male circumcision takes about 30 minutes and is done under anaesthetic by a doctor. The foreskin is snipped off and a few stitches are used to close the incision. These fall out on their own once the penis has healed. Afterwards you may experience some discomfort for a day or two, but generally it isn’t very painful. There should be no more swelling after two to three weeks, and complete recovery in adult men takes around four to six weeks.

Health / 10 Core Benefits Of The Moderate Use Of Marijuana by JSmart4u(m): 12:12pm On Jan 10, 2016 |
10. Treatment of Glaucoma If you are one of the millions who have been suffering from glaucoma, then smoking marijuana can help you get the best eyesight and relieve pressure from they eyes. Intraocular pressure can increase in certain individuals, especially those who have diabetes. Glaucoma is serious disease that can cause blindness. 9. Manage Epileptic Seizures People who suffer from epileptic disorders or seizures can get tremendous relief and relaxation from smoking marijuana. 8. Pain Reliever Marijuana ingestion can benefit your health when used to lessen the pain of MS, Rheumatoid arthritis and migraines. Also those sufferers of HIV, amputation, alcoholism and spinal surgery who are experiencing nerve pain seem to have a lessening of their pain when they are on a medical marijuana treatment protocol. Marijuana, in the 2010 Canadian study, was found in these patients to be many more times more effective then aspirin in limiting their perception of pain. Medicinal marijuana is administered in more controlled dosages, and strengths that is found on the street. It is a stated goal of physicians to “do no harm.” The lessening of a patient’s pain, represents the epitome of this goal. 7. Prevents the Spread of Cancer There is a chemical found in marijuana that has been shown to inhibit the growth of cancer cells. Researchers believe the process is that cannabidiol turns off the Id-1 gene. Cancer cells duplicate this gene in higher numbers than non- cancerous cells. Researchers also studied breast cancer cells in the lab that contained Id-1 in high quantities. They were treated with cannibidiol. The result of this treatment was a lower incidence of Id-1 and the remaining genes were found to be less invasive. There have been studies done in the US, Spain and Israel that posit that chemicals in marijuana can actually mean the death of cancer cells. 6. THC Reduces the Growth of Alzheimer’s THC can help to slow down the progression of Alzheimer’s disease. A study from 2006 found that chemicals in this drug can help keep amyloid plaques from forming. This will help keep you from getting this disease, and legalizing this drug could have everything to do with finding a cure. 5. Reduces the Spread of HIV Cannabis is highly regarded in the medical community for it’s effectiveness in treating patients with HIV. People who have contracted the disease suffer from weight loss and body aches amongst other many things however, a new research that suggest cannabis might be able to halt the spread of the disease altogether has come to light. Additionally, a study was conducted in Louisiana; in this research scientists gave a daily dose of THC to primates who had contracted an animal form of the HIV. Over the course of the study, scientists found that the damage to immune system in the primates’ stomach had decreased. 4. Relieves Arthritis Pain Marijuana will help with rheumatoid arthritis pain, swelling and allow them to have restful sleep .According to a 2011 study, where a cannabis based pain killer was given to rheumatoid arthritic patients, there was a marked decrease in observable pain, compared to the administration of a placebo. Rheumatoid arthritis can be an extremely debilitating disease, striking the joints of the affected patients. The subsequent swelling causes a reduction in the range of motion. But this kind of arthritis is different than osteoarthritis, the kind one gets with old age. RA is an autoimmune disease, meaning in effect your body is attacking healthy cells. Any age group can get it, and any gender, but women are stricken the most. 3. Slows Metabolism, Helps with Weight Loss Another use for medicinal marijuana is stimulating appetite. Recent studies by the National Cancer Institute indicate that the inhalation of cannabis can lead to an increased consumption of calories. Conversely, studies published in the American Journal of Medicine suggested that pot smokers are skinnier than the average person. They studied their levels of the hormone insulin and their blood sugar levels, and even though marijuana users consume more calories, they tend to have a healthier metabolism and a better reaction to sugars. The study analyzed data from more than 4,500 adult Americans — 579 of whom were current marijuana smokers, meaning they had smoked in the last month. About 2,000 had used marijuana in the past, while another 2,000 had never used the drug. 2. Calms Tremors in Parkinson’s Patients Research has shown for patients suffering from the debilitating disease Parkinson, smoking pot can help reduce pain and tremors. It has been show to increase sleep quality as well as improving fine motor skills. Much of this research has been conducted in Israel. Being able to release muscle tension, is another benefit of medical marijuana. A study done by the American Cancer Society shows that patients suffering from multiple sclerosis (MS), who used a liquid form of cannabis, encountered a reduced in muscle spasms as well shaking. Another study done on eight MS patients, in advanced stages, showed a reduction in tremors and muscle stiffness. 1. Helps Veterans Afflicted with PTSD Marijuana is a safer and less harmful alternative to traditional PTSD treatment. The relaxing effect marijuana has on the user without the fuzzy mental state caused by antidepressants can allow soldiers to relieve their anxiety without having to feel medicated. Antidepressants and other drugs prescribed for PTSD possess a high risk for addiction and are not recommended for use over long periods of time. Marijuana use can fluctuate, wane, or increase depending on the state of the patient with little no side effects based upon the amount of usage. There are no conclusive studies that indicate marijuana is addicting in the traditional sense of drug addiction such as substances with opiates. Marijuana may be the safest anti depressant on the market. Conclusion: Marijuana when smoked moderately causes no negetive effects unless smoked in high doses at a time.This is quite normal as all medications come with specific dosage requirements. Research has been conducted on this matter with no links to death or ill mental health,for this reason there has been revolution to legalize marijuana use as a recreational drug as at 2015. Currently many have decriminalized its use e.g about 4 states in America,Germany,Argentina,mexico e.t.c with more countries joining the league. All stigmas relating to marijuana use should be made desolate and more interest entailed to the discovery of its other beneficial uses.

Crime / The Hypocrisy Of Nigerians Over Paris Attacks by JSmart4u(m): 4:46pm On Nov 18, 2015 |
i want to share an article i wrote concerning the
way Nigerians are showing ungratefulness for
fellow Nigerians showing support over the Paris
Attacks. The article begins below'
Over the weekend, Nigerians have been ranting
about why we focus more on praying for Paris
current problem of terror attacks and forget about
what is happening in our own country. Their bone
of contention is that they say international
communities did not regard us as important when
Boko Haram started fresh in Nigeria.
This baffled me because with the rate at which
Nigerians are addicted to the use of social media
in sourcing news information, i could not help but
wonder why we easily forget what they
international communities did to support us.
We have forgotten that we became a serious new
matter for international news agencies for months
especially when the Chibok girls were kidnapped.
With the hash tag #bringbackourgirls, a lot of
prominent figure heads and celebrities voiced out
to boko haram to free the Chibok girls and few
efforts were made in the country to rescue them
but were not successful. Where do we start from,
Malia Obama, P. Diddy, Pharrell and many other
people i can't count supported us. But our
memories seem to fade easily and e dey chook
me for eye.
The same Paris we keep saying we should not
carry their matter on our heads like someone
selling gala and yoghurt on our heads also
supported us as people trooped out en-masse in
front of their Eiffel Tower to protest with the #
bringbackourgirls hashtag...
This is no photoshop from the various pictures
you can see. Now because Paris received more
global attention compared to when the Chiboks
girls were kidnapped, i do not know why the beef
became so strong but in my opinion, is not
warranted for.Why? If a person wants to display
serious maturity in any situation they find
themselves in, it is never done with the use of bad
mouthing rather, show support, France will
respect you when they needed international
support. Issues like this, is what they cherish
most and it will develop and improve bilateral
relations between us and them. That way, you
have proven that you are the bigger man and not
all the ranting we are doing.We should not allow
the 'third world' name we are being called to
allow us be intimidated because i still believe that
one day we would be ranked amongst the great
nations of the world. US, Britain, Russia, China
etc did not develop in a day or decade but life na
turn by turn. How old are we since independence?
In conclusion, we are all members of the
international communities and as such, we are
always inter-dependent on one another. If you feel
that you are treated with evil, you should not pay
back with evil because nothing gets solved by
paying back like that.

Op you all are so senseless and weak.south Africa dare not mess with Nigerians. I even heard boko haram gave serious warning to south Africa concerning the xenophobic attacks. Can u face boko haram. Just because we are quiet doesn't mean we don't know what to do. I bet many of you are lazy dagha smokers and drunkards with an alarming rate of hiv. I just wish foreigners can just leave ur country so that the remaining little number of ur people get infected and die of aids. Foreigners are even the reason why aids haven't killed u all,bcuz instead of infecting ur fellow south Africans,u infect foreigners. OP u lack a reasonable mans mentality,thinking that all foreigners are crime conscious as south African mentality. Fusek msunu ga nyoga dear half brother. 1 Like |
