Dr.
Mercola on prostate surgery: - "While many doctors think immediately
of eliminating the problem, they think very little of the treatment's devastating
side effects that seriously diminish the patient's quality of life. And,
for the 40,000 American men who have their prostates removed each year,
35 percent of the men afflicted find themselves dealing with the return
of the disease within just five years."
Of
the hundreds of animal species with a prostate gland, only humans and dogs
are known to suffer from prostate cancer and prostatic hyperplasia (an
overgrowth of prostate tissue). The prostate is a walnut-sized gland that
surrounds the urethra, the tube that drains the bladder through the penis
(see figure 41). It is responsible for the production of fluid that car-ries
the sperm when ejaculating. Other prostate problems include infection—both
acute and chronic prostatitis. The majority of men will have some sort
of prostate problem in their lifetimes.
Not all prostate enlargement is cancerous. In fact most enlarged prostates
are benign. Hypertrophy of the prostate is caused by an enlargement of
the cells in the gland, unlike cancer, which is enlargement caused by an
increase in the number of cells. This condition is age related and increases
from an incidence of 8% in 30 to 40 year olds, to over 80% in men over
80. Enlargement of the gland often leads to impaired flow from the bladder.
Symptoms are frequent and difficult urination, a weak urinary stream, straining,
dribbling, incomplete emptying and recurrent urine infections.
GLUTATHIONE IN THE HUMAN MALE
Researchers have found that abnormal growth in these tissues often cor-responds
to deficiencies in glutathione enzymes (GSH).
One is glutathione-S-transferase, which has several sub-types. The balance
of these sub-types varies from normal prostate tissue to hypertrophic prostates
to cancerous prostates. Several researchers propose that deficiencies in
this GSH enzyme system increase the likelihood of developing both an enlarged
prostate and prostate cancer. One of the more significant series of papers
to be published on glutathione and prostate cancer comes from the University
of Wisconsin. Researchers there describe male hormones (androgens) as a
source of oxidative stress, particularly in cancerous prostate cells. An
article in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute claims that androgens
stimulate free radical damage and also deplete glutathione. Given the natural
decline of glutathione levels in males as they age, the article suggests
that "unop-posed androgen pro-oxidant stress" contributes to prostate cancer.
Dr. Bounous M.D -
"Every day our bodies are exposed to factors that drain our levels of glutathione:
Stress, pollution, radiation, infection, drugs, poor diet, aging, injury
and fatigue. These all contribute to glutathione
depletion which, in turn, leads to cellular aging, disease and death."
Natural defense against oxidative stress is weakened by the decline
of GSH en-zymes. This is an interesting model for the development of prostate
cancer. Another finding links the loss of glutathione activity to prostate
cancer. The function of a particular glutathione enzyme glutathione-S-transferase-pi-i
(GSTP1) is almost universally lost in both cancerous and pre-cancerous
prostate cells. The inactivation of this glutathione enzyme is an early
event in the development of prostate cancer. Many studies have linked the
loss of GSTP 1 to malignant transformation of prostatic tissues. more...
CASE STUDY
Franklin was a semi-retired general practitioner who at age 68 scored
a PSA reading of over 8 micrograms/liter on a routine screening exam, suggesting
a high possibility of prostate cancer. In continued tests, a urologist
took a cystoscopic biopsy and confirmed the diagnosis. Four out of Franklin's
six biopsy sites tested positive for high-grade tumor. For personal and
practical reasons, Franklin delayed aggressive treatment and opted to take
30 grams/day of Immunocal,
a protein isolate that raises glutathione levels. Bimonthly PSA levels
showed a gradual decline, his latest reading being 3.8 u/L. He is still
being closely followed by his urologist, and his decision to undergo chemotherapy,
radiotherapy or surgery will be deferred unless his PSA levels rise again.
Glutathione
System in Defense of Prostate Problems
Patricia A.L. Kongshavn,
Ph.D Former Professor: Department of Medicine, McGill University,
Montreal, Canada
It has been proposed that deficiency in this glutathione enzyme system
increases the likelihood of developing both an enlarged prostate and prostate
cancer (1).
Studies are in progress to investigate the benefit of using Immunocal
as a complementary treatment for prostate cancer since this dietary supplement
is already proven to raise intracellular glutathione in normal adults (5).
A number of case reports describing the beneficial effects of this treatment
in prostate cancer patients have recently been published by Bounous (6).
In these patients PSA (prostate specific antigen) values fell, indicating
reduction of the tumor mass. Immunocal is also indicated for use as a prophylaxis
against benign hypertrophy as well as cancer since both conditions appear
to be related to deficiency in the glutathione enzyme system.
In summary, there is increasing evidence that the glutathione
system provides a vitally important defense against prostate problems.
Therefore, dietary treatments to support or enhance this system, in particular
Immunocal
and selenium, could be very important in maintaining a healthy gland as
well as providing protection against the development of prostate cancer.
Dr. Jimmy Gutman, M.D
- "Clinical evidence links low glutathione
GSH levels to the most common illnesses of our time as well as newly emerging
diseases. Glutathione levels diminish as we age and many diseases normally
associated with aging have been linked to glutathione deficiency."
Dr. Allan Somersall M.D
- "To raise glutathione levels GSH is
to reduce premature oxidation, to quench destructive free radicals and
help detoxify the poisons inside each cell when it needs to. Only Immunocal
is clinically proven to do that in a safe, effective and convenient way."
Prostate Cancer: A 66 year old male medical report on
25/08/2001 showed Carcino Embryonic Antigen (CEA) : 5.4v ng/ml & Prostatic
specific antigen : 21.7v ng/ml. And doctor recommended him for chemotheraphy.
He went to another doctor for a 2nd opinion and was advised to take Immunocal
from 28/08/2001 (20gm per day). He went for check-up after 30 days and
the report showed CEA : 3.0ng/ml & PSA 4.9h ng/ml. After 53 days, he
went for another check-up and the medical report showed CEA : 2.5 ng/ml
& PSA : 2.8 ng/ml. At 95 days, another medical report showed CEA 2.5
ng/ml & PSA 2.1 ng/ml. The doctor said that he is totally cancer-free.
One man who had been taken off Chemotherapy after developing
heart toxicity from the chemotherapy treatments [for his Prostate
Cancer] had a PSA reading of 208 (that is through the roof!). Roy's PSA
was 70 when he had cancer. After one month of taking Immunocal, his PSA
reading dropped to 28! The following month it dropped to 11! He then went
on vacation like he had done before he was ill. Immunocal
turned his situation around and gave him his life back!

"In January 1991 I was diagnosed with Advanced Prostate Cancer. Bone
scans and other tests indicated no spread so it was decided to operate.
During the operation it was discovered that the cancer had spread to the
Lymph glands making it stage four. The operation was not completed as that
would not be the answer.."

quoted from another book, "How to fight Cancer and
Win" by Fischer. There are three chapters on oils describing the work
of Dr. Johanna Budwig in Germany.
She is a Biochemist and blood specialist who has been treating cancer of
all kinds with nothing but cottage cheese and Flaxseed Oil for over 16
years. She says that people with cancer have blood that is low in Omega
3 and Omega 6 fatty acids and the blood has a greenish cast. Flaxseed
oil is 56% Omega 3 and 16% Omega 6. Recently I read that most people
have blood that is 80% deficient in Omega 3. Dr. Budwig has taken patients
sometimes given only hours to live and restored them to health."
"From physicals done in 1994 the doctor said that my bloodwork was excellent
and Mary Anna's was the best he'd seen so far in her case. As I record
this in October 1996 all physicals since then have shown the same result.
Though as of July, 2001 I still have some cancer activity, I am in no danger.
A body scan and other tests done in November were all normal. I quit the
Lupron and Eulexin in October of 1995. For a man diagnosed with advanced,
semi aggressive, prostate cancer to be alive in ten years with all tests
normal is not common." Read

Prostate Health with Marine Phytoplankton
(Marine Fatty Acids) "In June 2006 I was diagnosed
with prostate cancer. I was introduced to Marine Phytoplankton at about
the same time so I started taking three caps per day. A week later blood
tests confirmed that I had the fastest growing cancer, with a 10 out of
10 for bad rating. I was sent for a physical test that confirmed the cancer
was outside the prostate; that was not a good sign. I continued taking
the Marine Phytoplankton at triple doses and
finally last Friday we had the scan results. We were very worried, but
the doctor said that the cancer had not gone any further and that it was
confined. I have felt very well since starting Marine Phytoplankton and
now look forward to even better results over the coming weeks." J. G.
Dr.
Jerry Tennant, M.D. says that marine phytoplankton
contains almost everything one needs to sustain life and to restore health
by providing the raw materials to make new cells that function normally.
Marine phytoplankton has been called "the most nutritionally dense foods
on the planet". Containing a
wide range of trace elements, amino acids, vitamins, minerals, chlorophyll,
enzymes and cellular materials, marine phytoplankton promotes and maintains
optimum health by boosting and supporting all systems within the body.
Its antioxidants and unique polysaccharides can halt the genetic mutations
that can lead to cancer. Both high levels of saccharides and adaptogens
increase energy and stamina by improving our ability to consume and use
oxygen. Adaptogens also improve cardiovascular health by strengthening
the heart and circulation. more about marine
phytoplankton's healing power
Medical researchers in New Zealand provide convincing evidence that
an increased consumption of fish oils helps reduce
the risk of developing prostate cancer. Their study involved 317 men who
had been diagnosed with prostate cancer during 1996-97 and 480 age-matched
controls. Blood samples were obtained from all participants and the erythrocyte
(red blood cell) phosphatidylcholine fraction of the plasma was analyzed
for EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), the two
main components of fish oils. Evaluation of the collected data showed a
clear correlation between blood level of EPA and DHA and the presence of
prostate cancer. The researchers speculate that fish oils may prevent the
progression of prostate cancer by inhibiting the biosynthesis of eicosanoids
from arachidonic acid. Norrish,

Testicular Cancer
Chemotherapy
given to testicular cancer patients causes long-term neurological damage
including hearing loss and Raynaud-like phenomena
Long-term survivors of testicular cancer who were treated with cisplatin-based
chemotherapy had more severe side effects, including neurological side
effects and Raynaud-like phenomena, than men who were not treated with
chemotherapy, according to a new study published online November 25, 2009
in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute. Marianne Brydøy,
M.D., of the Department of Oncology, Haukeland University Hospital, in
Bergen, Norway, and colleagues conducted a cross-sectional study to assess
the prevalence of these known side effects among long-term testicular cancer
survivors in Norway according to the treatment they had received. Side
effects include sensory neuropathy, tinnitus, hearing impairment, and Raynaud-like
phenomena (discoloration of the hands or feet on exposure to cold).
Researchers invited 1,814 men who were treated for unilateral testicular
cancer during 1980-1994 to participate in a national multicenter follow-up
survey conducted during 1998-2002. A total of 1,409 participants, who were
allocated to three groups based on cisplatin administration, were assessable
in this study. The researchers found that at 4-21 years after the initiation
of treatment for testicular cancer, men who had received any chemotherapy
had statistically significantly higher odds for increasing severity of
all assessed symptoms compared with men not treated with chemotherapy.
Treated men also had more hearing impairment, as measured by audiometry,
particularly those who had received dose-intensive chemotherapy. "A major
aim in the treatment of testicular cancer is to minimize toxic effects
without compromising the high cure rate," the authors write. "Our data
favor the use of chemotherapy regimens that contain 20 mg/m2 cisplatin
per day to limit ototoxicity."
Ralph W. Moss, Ph.D.
- "Conventional cancer therapy is so toxic and dehumanizing that I
fear it far more than I fear death from cancer. We know that conventional
therapy doesn't work--if it did, you would not fear cancer any more than
you fear pneumonia. It is the utter lack of certainty as to the outcome
of conventional treatment that virtually screams for more freedom of choice
in the area of cancer therapy. Yet most alternative therapies regardless
of potential or proven benefit, are outlawed, which forces patients to
submit to the failures that we know don't work, because there's no other
choice. I started as a believer in chemotherapy. As a science writer
at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York, I wrote articles
praising the latest advances in chemotherapy. Because chemotherapy drugs
were general cellular poisons, they could be terribly toxic. They were
also very expensive for patients and for society as a whole. When I learned
about the links between the pharmaceutical industry and the cancer establishment
(later detailed in my book, The Cancer Industry) I understood the commercial
reason that such an inadequate modality was so heavily promoted." Questioning

A preliminary report on the use of transfer factors
for treating stage D3 hormone-unresponsive metastatic prostate cancer
As conventional treatments are unsuccessful, the survival rate of stage
D3 prostate cancer patients is poor. Reports have suggested the existence
of humoral and cell-mediated immunity (CMI) against prostate cancer tumour-associated
antigens (TAA). These observations prompted us to treat stage D3 prostate
cancer patients with an in vitro produced transfer factor (TF) able to
transfer, in vitro and in vivo, CMI against bladder and prostate TAA.

Rob Robertson, M.D. conducted the following studies: Twenty patients,
12 men and 8 women, were selected for this in vivo study. The average
age was 49.3. The twenty individuals were each level 3 or level 4
cancer patients. Each patient was basically sent home by his or her
oncologist to die. The average life expectancy was 3.7 months.
The protocol was to place each patient on 9 capsules per day of Transfer
Factor Plus. The patients were given a number of other general
nutrients. After eight months, 16 of these individuals were still
living and were either in remission, improving or stabilized.

The
Natural Prostate Cure
"I had asked for a second opinion concerning my diagnosis and treatment
options from a radiation oncologist (My urologist is a surgeon whose primary
method is surgical removal of the gland). I was surprised by the radiation
oncologist's list of treatment options; external radiation therapy, intensity
modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), internal radiation therapy (brachytherapy),
AND DIET/SUPPLEMENT therapy! This was a refreshing surprise to me, and
the oncologist spent well over an hour going over the diet regimen (which
he PERSONALLY follows). It was this revelation that I would eventually
read about in Roger Mason's book "The Natural Prostate Cure". Having an
oncologist relate all this to me in ADVANCE of ever reading the book only
served to reinforce the information contained in its very informative 73
short pages which I read in one afternoon.
After reading a booklet "Understanding Radiation Therapy" (a 40 page
booklet from The American Cancer Society), I was sick in my stomach from
the seemingly 'grotesque' procedures, and the strong possibility of horrible
side effects! The bottom line (from reading it): No predictions or guarantees
can be made as to outcomes regarding surgical or radiation procedures!
It is just too full of "maybe's, if's, possibly's & unknown's". Even
with my approach of seeking a natural cure, the responsibility is mine;
the choice is mine & the decision is mine! And I must say that decision
MUST be an individual one, and MUST be made on an individual basis by the
individual, and FOR the individual. All doctors, surgeons, oncologists
& therapists should honor that decision, and stay off the patient's
back! All of the foregoing is strictly MY opinion based on what I've read,
seen & heard. But, the radiation oncologist visit, and Roger Mason's
book "The Natural Prostate Cure" weighed positively on my decision to go
the natural route. I gave it a five star rating NOT because it was lengthy
and full of multiple syllable words, but because it was short, factual,
science-based and made a lot of common sense!" an amazon.com reviewer

Dr. Clapp was determined not to become another statistic. Refusing to have
surgery, radiation or chemotherapy, he embarked on a personal mission to
investigate alternative treatments. The results of Larry Clapp's extraordinary
journey became the basis of the healing program that ultimately cured his
cancer. He hows how to stop prostate trouble in its tracks, using nutrition,

commonly-held belief in the medical community is that benign prostate enlargement
and cancer is a normal part of male aging, a fact of life to which we should
unquestioningly resign ourselves. But attorney Larry Clapp didn't buy it
when he was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 1991. He refused to have
surgery, radiation or chemotherapy, and opted instead to investigate alternatives,
finding that prostate problems don't exist in other cultures, and concluding
that prostate illness was neither inevitable nor incurable. Clapp propelled
himself into an intensive research effort to evaluate both traditional
and alternative healing methods, and the results became the basis of the
healing program that ultimately cured his cancer. Saw palmetto extract
continues to be used as a primary treatment for both short-term and long-term

Joe
and Andrew's Cesium Chloride Cancer Survival Story
Joe: "I worked closely with Joe for several years in the television
industry. In year 2000 at age 56, an ultrasound during a routine physical
at the VA revealed a prostate tumor. Based on a subsequent needle biopsy,
they diagnosed him with moderate to aggressive prostate cancer with a Gleason
score of 4+3 = 7. The first doctor he saw recommended surgery to remove
the prostate. Not satisfied with that, he saw another doctor who recommended
radiation “seeding”, whereby they insert radiation pellets into specific
areas of the prostate and tumor. Since he didn't like that option, either,
he started looking into alternative cancer treatment and settled in on
cesium chloride, considered to be a big-gun natural cancer cure."
Andrew: "I was diagnosed with prostate cancer July 21, 2006 with
a PSA of about 7.0 and a Gleason score of 3+3 = 6. I turned down surgery,
radiation, and chemotherapy in favor of cesium chloride, an easy and safe
high pH alternative cancer treatment you can do at home. Three and a half
months after I started taking cesium chloride, my PSA plummeted to 3.35---well
below normal for my age---and I haven't seen a cancer doctor since."

Holistic benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)
and prostrate cancer holistic treatments
Dr. Whitaker - "I'm in my mid-50s, the age when prostate problems
become more likely. From the annoying symptoms of an enlarged prostate
to the threat of prostate cancer, disorders affecting the prostate gland
become increasingly common -- as does the possibility of being urged to
undergo increasingly invasive procedures to diagnose and treat these disorders.
However, I have no measurable problems with my prostate gland, and like
the cowboy who demands to be buried with his boots on, I plan to be buried
with an intact prostate gland. If you're one of the 75 percent of men 50
years and older with enlargement of the prostate gland, a condition called
benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), you know the routine: Increasingly
frequent nighttime visits to the bathroom, a sense of urgency, trouble
getting started, and a urinary flow that's more of a dribble than a steady
stream. " Dr. Whitaker
Beginning for most men between the ages of 40 and 60, and affecting
virtually all of us by the time we are 80, the prostate gland undergoes
a second growth spurt. It is triggered by an increase in the activity of
an enzyme called 5-alpha-reductase, which is concentrated in the prostate,
testicles, and scalp and converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone
(DHT).
Increased levels of DHT are responsible for two of the least pleasant
aspects of male aging: male-pattern baldness (receding hairline) and prostate
growth. The prostate gland, which produces semen, sits like a doughnut
around the urethra, the tube that carries urine from the bladder to the
penis. The gland's accelerated growth chokes off the urethra and interferes
with normal urinary flow. Unlike prostate cancer, BPH is not a life-threatening
disease, yet it definitely reduces quality of life.
At its worst, BPH can lead to urinary tract infections or sometimes
even complete blockage of the urethra. However, there are natural remedies
available to help you maintain prostate health and relieve the symptoms
of BPH. more

Julian Whitaker MD - "The fact is that the overwhelming majority
of prostate cancers are buried, untouched, with their hosts. Doctors discover
cancerous changes in almost 30 percent of the prostates they check during
routine autopsies of men over age 60 — even when the men neither died from
prostate cancer nor knew there was a tumor. In autopsies of men over 90
who die from other causes, prostate cancer is found in virtually all of
them. According to the National Cancer Institute, your risk of getting
prostate cancer takes a giant leap if it runs in your family. If you have
a father or brother who had prostate cancer before age 65, your chances
of getting it are doubled. If you have more than one relative who's had
prostate cancer,
your
chance of getting it may jump up to six times the average. That said, researchers
estimate that 80 to 90 percent of all cancers can be prevented by lifestyle
choices. The things you do every day — what you eat and drink, how active
you are, how much sleep you get, your stress level — all of these affect
your health and your risk of prostate cancer. But let's look at prostate
cancer for what it is — a mostly slow-growing cancer that becomes more
common with increasing age, but which is rarely deadly. A Diagnosis
of Prostate Cancer Is NOT a Death Sentence!"

Herbal Remedy for Prostate Cancer
“Natural Approach To Prostate Health” by
Dr. Elson Haas
The annual medical check-up
- enshrined for decades as a cornerstone of preventative care - is a waste
of time and money, doctors now admit. Around 44 million adults in America
had a routine medical check-up between 2002 and 2004, and a range of unnecessary
tests - costing $350m a year - were ordered. These included tests on blood
count, serum electrolytes, and urine, plus a check on heart health. But,
says Dr. Ateev Mehrotra from the University of Pittsburgh Medical Centre,
these tests shouldn't be carried out routinely. Instead, they should be
ordered only if the doctor has a good reason to do so. General preventative
advice is often given either during other surgery visits or from other
sources. The only regular check-ups worth preserving are mammogram and
cervical smear tests, he says. (Source: Archives of Internal Medicine,

The
Nurturing Father
by James Kimmel, Ph.D.
Studies of groups of people
living outside civilization have indicated that it is rare for children
to have fathers who are absent or who are not nurturing. In hunter-gatherer
societies, both mother and father, as well as other male and female members
of the group, are usually described by anthropologists
as
indulgent of, and nurturing toward, all children. Despite the commonly
held belief in Western civilization that the individual is primarily governed
in his behavior by selfish motives and instincts, that "man is a beast
to man", it is much more probable that our prehistoric ancestors were individuals
who cared for, and about, each other. The idea that the human individual
is basically selfish and uncaring of others, and that to become socialized,
he must repress and control his self-serving impulses, ignores the human
nurturing necessity and its powerful influence on individual development
and group living.
Both
male and female evolved to continue their development after birth in relation
to a nurturing mother. The natural nurturing process does more than keep
infants alive. It initiates them into a way of living in which there is
someone who cares for and about them. Nurtured children learn that security
and satisfaction are found in attachment to another human. For these reasons,
sociability and socialization are natural outcomes of appropriate mothering.
Our requirement of mothering is the root of our connection to each other.
The mother in her attachment and commitment to her child establishes that
human life is about affirming the life of another as well as oneself. more

Fish
oils help prevent prostate cancer
Medical researchers in New Zealand provide convincing evidence that
an increased consumption of fish oils helps reduce the risk of developing
prostate cancer. Their study involved 317 men who had been diagnosed with
prostate cancer during 1996-97 and 480 age-matched controls.

Stoll's book The Omega-3 Connection. He is a Harvard psychiatrist who
has done a great job compiling evidence supporting the use of fish oils.
STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN. Several studies have shown an inverse relationship
between blood levels of fish
oils (eicosapentaenoic acid [EPA] and docosahexaenoic acid [DHA]) and
the risk of prostate cancer. A study just completed by medical researchers
at the Karolinska Institute confirms this association. The Swedish study
involved 3136 pairs of male twins born between 1886 and 1925. The participants
completed food frequency questionnaires in 1961 and 1967 and were then
followed up for 30 years. By December 31, 1997 the researchers had recorded
466 diagnoses of prostate cancer (340 fatal ones). The average age of diagnosis
was 76.7 years. After adjusting for other known risk factors the researchers
conclude that men who never eat fish have a two- to three-fold higher risk
of prostate cancer than do men who eat moderate to high amounts. The researchers
emphasize that only fatty fish such as salmon, herring and mackerel, which
contain high amounts of omega-3 fatty acids (EPA
and DHA), would be expected to be beneficial. Terry,

Impotence
/ Erectile Disfunction (ED)/ Sexual Stamina
Special
Report: Supercharging Your Ejaculatory Control According to the
Kinsey Institute Report, the average male ejaculates in less than 2 minutes
after insertion. On the contrary, the average woman needs at least 8-10
minutes of continuous stimulation in order to reach orgasm. Of course,
many women need an even longer period of stimulation during intercourse
in order to climax. Considering these facts, it's certainly no surprise
that premature ejaculation is virtually every woman's number one complaint
when it comes to intercourse. Having the ability to last is truly the most
important aspect of a healthy and mutually-fulfilling sexual relationship.
So even if you think you're doing okay by lasting 5 minutes or so during
sex, chances are that it's still not enough to satisfy her completely.
It is estimated that 30 million American men suffer from ED and the
problem is solvable for the majority of them. A man is considered impotent
if he does not have the ability to achieve or maintain an erection adequate
for normal sexual intercourse. Erections occur from a combination of brain
stimuli, blood vessel and nerve function and hormonal action. Impotence
may include certain factors, which prevent the male sperm from impregnating
the female ovum, the inability to achieve or maintain erection, premature
ejaculation, or the inability to ejaculate the sperm. Click

Proprietary
Formula for Penis Enhancement based on Ayurveda - the Oldest and Most Holistic,
Comprehensive Medical System Available
There
are numerous causes of impotence, which may include the following: certain
medications and drugs, such as alcohol, cigarettes, antidepressants, antihistamines,
antihypertentives, blood pressure medication, chemotherapy, diuretics,
narcotics, nicotine, sedatives, steroids if abused, stomach acid inhibiters,
and ulcer medications. Certain ailments may contribute to ED such as, atherosclerosis,
clogged arteries, peripheral vascular disease, psychological stress, low
sperm count, diabetes, depression, or lack of desire.
According to a Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) study
reported on in February 1999 approximately 43 percent of women and 31 percent
of men suffer sexual inadequacy for one reason or another. The reasons
cited included low desire, frigidity, performance anxiety, premature ejaculation
and/or pain during intercourse. This is thought to actually be an underestimation
of the real level of sexual dysfunction in the U.S. Research indicated
that many of the sexual concerns were likely treatable, as they are due
to physical or emotional health issues.
Many women in particular still complain of a lack of sexual desire for
two years after childbirth due to the hormonal and personal changes that
occur. Low libido, lack of sexual desire, and lack of sexual fulfillment
are a few of the potential symptoms that are not resolved for many people.
FDA
Was Told of Viagra-Blindness Link Months Ago More
than 13 months before a scientific journal reported that Viagra had been
linked to a rare form of blindness in some men, a Food and Drug Administration
safety officer made the same observation from monitoring adverse event
reports and told her supervisors that doctors and patients should be warned
of the findings.
Sexually
As Strong as a Horse India Herbs has a seasoned
group of Ayurvedic doctors specialized in Vajikarana, one of the eight
major specialties of Ayurveda (the ancient science dealing with medicine).
Vajikarana is "a process or a drug, which make a man sexually as strong
as a horse and able to copulate for long and frequently with many wives
and partners." Vajikarana prescribes the therapeutic use of various
aphrodisiacs and tonic preparations for enhancing the reproductive capabilities
and vigor of men while strengthening the body and overall well-being.
Western medicine relies on aggressive prescription drugs and surgery
to deal with many problems related to sexual dysfunction. Unfortunately,
these methods often result in unwanted and even dangerous side effects.
Non-medical methods of penis enhancement through exercise using
weights,
straps, rings, and pumps have proven destructive to muscle tissue.
And natural pills provide fleeting, inconsistent results. India Herbs'
Vajikarana scientists combine a proprietary herbal formula based on centuries
old wisdom with advice on diet, exercise, mental training, and relaxation
to help men reach their peak and overcome sexual concerns through safe,
natural means.

Impotence:
A Cultural History
Men have been complaining about failed erections ever since Ovid, but
as University of Victoria historian McLaren (Sexual Blackmail: A Modern
History) shows, their significance, and with it our conceptions of masculinity,
have changed over the centuries. In the medieval world, for example, the
primary concern was with whether a man was capable of consummating his
marriage; it would take centuries for the physical and psychological causes
to take center stage. And though everything from excessive masturbation
to coitus interruptus was put forth as an explanation, just about every
era, from the ancient Greeks to modern antifeminists, has found some way
to put the blame on women. (In the 19th century, doctors claimed men could
be put off not just by women who were reluctant but those who were too
eager.) After considering the early 20th-century "quack" remedies of gland
injections and vacuum pumps, McLaren devotes his final chapter to the cultural
changes wrought by Viagra and other drugs created to treat "erectile dysfunction."
Far from eliminating the fear of impotence, he suggests such medications
may actually lead to more anxiety, as pharmaceutical companies attempt
to convince men that sexual activity is vital to their well-being. Perhaps
one day McLaren will write about those problems with the wide-ranging verve
of this lively history.
The
Viagra Alternative: The Complete Guide to Overcoming Erectile Dysfunction
Naturally by Marc, M.D. Bonnard
Editorial Reviews and Book Description: The most comprehensive guide
to natural, safe, and permanent cures for impotence. * One of Europe's
leading sex therapists introduces psychological and sexual techniques that
can help the more than 30 million men who suffer from impotence. * Emphasizes
holistic cures that treat body, mind, and spirit, including herbal remedies,
homeopathy, yoga, aromatherapy, and diet changes.
When Viagra burst on the scene in 1998 it became the best-selling drug
of all time, surpassing even Prozac. More than 30 million men suffer from
impotence, and the introduction of a pill that could solve their problems
revolutionized the treatment of erectile dysfunction. Or did it? Viagra
has now been implicated in more than 69 deaths, as well as heart attacks,
hypertension, color blindness, and other health problems, and more and
more evidence shows that impotence can rarely be cured by a "magic pill."
In fact, taking Viagra may end up accentuating the greater underlying problem
of which the impotence is a symptom, whether it be lack of physical well-being,
poor psychological health, or relationship difficulties. For those men
who wish to avoid the risks of Viagra, The Viagra Alternative offers the
most up-to-date information on natural, safe, and long-term cures for impotence.
"I was one of the first people in line when Viagra, the acclaimed
wonder drug, first came out. Unfortunately, my problems could not be overcome
by a mere blue pill. The wonderful techniques employed by this book, including
the numerous nonpharmaceutical organic natural remedies were a great help
to me. The writing was brilliant, and recipes were as easy as one, two,
three." an amazon.com reviewer

Safe Asian Medicine - Revive Your Sex Drive
What Drives Your Sex Drive? Your libido (sex drive) is regulated by the
hormone testosterone. Although classified as a male hormone, testosterone
is produced by both men and women. As you age, your body produces less
testosterone. The result? Your interest in sex may diminish significantly.
The noted herbalist Ron Teeguarden reports that in Chinese studies, Goji
(lycium) berry was shown to markedly increase testosterone levels in the
blood, thereby increasing libido in both men and women. The Goji (lycium)
berry is revered as one of the premier sexual tonic herbs in all of Asian
medicine, and is legendary for helping to spark the passions. In fact,
an old Chinese proverb cautions men who are traveling far from their wives
and families: "He who travels one thousand kilometers from home should
not eat Goji!” more

Male Menopause: andropause
MENOPAUSE
NOT ONLY HAPPENS TO AGING WOMEN, BUT ALSO TO MEN
The state of menopause is not excluded to aging women, but also to
middle-aged and elderly men. Many of the symptoms accompanying the
male menopause and the aging process in men are similar to those of hypogonadism.
They include a decrease in such things as libido and sexual activity, less
signs of virilism such as a thinning of male hair or beard growth, a decrease
in muscle mass and strength, lack of energy, ostopenia (weakened or soft
bones), a decrease in cognitive functions, irritability, excessive sweating
with occasional hot flushes, and a lowering of the feeling of general well-being.
We can attribute at least some of these symptoms to an age associated decrease
in testosterone levels.
A man often begins to experience changes in his body somewhere between
ages 40 and 55. These bodily changes may be accompanied by changes in attitudes
and moods. During this time a man frequently begins to question his values,
accomplishments and the direction of his life. The entire gestalt of these
changes has led to the notion of the mid-life crisis.
The
Andropause Mystery: Unraveling Truths About the Male Menopause by Robert
Tan
"At least women are more fortunate than men to be able to know and understand
about their menopause through the distinct point. I am sure it causes great
confusion to many men when they grow older due to physical and physiological
changes, due to lack of understanding about male menopauseand distinct
point. This book has unraveled the truth, which will be able to help men
and women to understand better about male menopause. I recommend that this
book not only for men, also equally for women. It helps the men to understand
better about themselves and be able to prepare for the aging process, and
the women to understand their male partner better." an amazon.com reviewer

Protecting Your Bones Naturally
Dr. Mercola - "Many of you have or will eventually suffer from
osteoporosis. But the drugs designed to treat it are dangerous and loaded
with side effects. Fortunately, there are safe, natural treatments you
can use instead." more...
Study show that women who got the most calcium
from dairy products actually broke more bones than women who rarely drank
milk. The bone-thinning condition called osteoporosis can lead to
small and not-so-small fractures. Although many people think of calcium
in the diet as good protection for their bones, this is not at all the
whole story. In fact, in a 12-year Harvard study of 78,000 women, those
who got the most calcium from dairy products actually broke more bones
than women who rarely drank milk. Similarly, a 1994 study of elderly men
and women in Sydney, Australia, showed that higher dairy product consumption
was associated with increased fracture risk. Those with the highest dairy
product consumption had approximately double the risk of hip fracture compared
to those with the lowest consumption. To protect your bones you do need
calcium in your diet, but you also need to keep calcium in your bones.

The Reproductive System - Infertillity
Inability to conceive after at least a year of regular sexual intercourse

in the man or the woman or both. Identification of the underlying causation
is the key to successful treatment.
Why
Vasectomy Is Risky?
Some men suffer some pretty severe side effects after undergoing the
operation. How does vasectomy affect a man’s body? This is a reasonable
question, which unfortunately is rarely answered, even after significant
effects occur. Let’s use an analogy of a 40-year-old fire hose. You
hook this fire hose up to a hydrant and turn on the water. Let the
hose represent the epididymis portion of the testicles and the vas deferens,
which would measure some 20 feet in length if stretched out, and let the
water represent the 50,000 sperm cells a minute that a man’s body manufactures,
even after vasectomy. Now, tie a knot in the fire hose. What happens?
Something is going to rupture, right? That’s why fire departments
don’t use 40-year-old fire hoses, and why men develop ruptures in their
testicles after their vas is tied off during the vasectomy procedure.
Actually, the technical term for this phenomena is a “blowout.”
According to Campbell’s Urology (a textbook for urology students and doctors)
“The brunt of pressure-induced damage after vasectomy falls on the epididymis
and efferent ductules…. It is likely that, in time, all vasectomized men
develop ‘blowouts’ in either the epididymis or efferent ducts.” I
wish I had known this before I had my vasectomy and started experiencing
some of the negative effects of that rupturing process.
Autoimmune Responses
But that’s not all. When the rupturing occurs, sperm cells enter
the blood stream, where they were not naturally intended to be. As
a matter of fact, nature makes a very specific point of keeping sperm cells
out of the blood stream, because sperm cells have very strong enzymes on
their surfaces and only half a DNA strand. What does the body think
is happening? The immune system is sent on full alert to fight off
a perceived infection, and the body becomes
“autoimmune”,
i.e. the body goes to war on itself. Again from Campbell’s Urology:
“Vasectomy results in violation of the blood-testis barrier producing detectable
levels of serum antisperm antibodies in 60 to 80 per cent of men….”
Once this reaction starts, it is difficult to stop, even with a vasectomy
reversal. It would have been good to know this also before it began
happening in me.
Tinnitus (Ringing and Other Ear Noise)
My life was no longer my own. I couldn’t work (the loud noise
in my ears was making it impossible to deal with my myriad of responsibilities
at the office); I was short tempered with my family (after all, didn’t
they realize that every little noise they made aggravated an 
already
precarious situation?); my health was suffering (I couldn’t eat or sleep
normally); and I was growing more and more depressed. I was reaching
my breaking point and I knew it. Something had to be done and it
had to be done quickly or I was going to lose my mind. It was time to take
action!
I took a few weeks off of work. I switched several doctors and complained
about the stabbing pulsing sounds and other symptoms I was experiencing.
But the only answer I got was that surgery was my only option. Unbelievable
I thought, only to later find out that in the vast majority of cases, surgeries
are completely unnecessary and can often lead to irreversible results.
Deep down, I felt there must have been another option, a healthier
alternative. Learn

another. I was also a victim of the never-ending flow of propaganda from
the medical establishment (which I think of as the
"disease" establishment because they focus on disease rather than on prevention
and wellness) who wants to maintain a monopoly on the word "cure" and who
wants us to believe that we have no control over our own health and that
our only hope to get "well" is with drugs, surgery and radiation. When
I turned to holistic health therapy, I lost 60 pounds in 3 months effortlessly.
(and never had to struggle again to keep my weight down) and my energy
level and stamina improved dramatically. I was able to function better
overall. I became calmer, centered and focused, and generally I felt happier
and became much healthier. Shirley Learn

Hair
Loss / Baldness / Alopecia
From the American Institute of Preventive Medicine:
"Most men and women experience hair loss as they get older; indeed,
most men have some degree of baldness by age 60. This is quite normal and
affects some persons more than others, especially if baldness runs in the
family. Sudden or abnormal hair loss could, however, result from:
-
Taking certain medications (like some used in treating cancer, circulatory
disorders, ulcers or arthritis)
-
Following a crash diet
-
Hormonal changes such as with menopause or andropause
-
A prolonged or serious illness
-

What
Every Parent Should Know BEFORE Their Childen Are Vaccinated! Why
are a growing number of parents and health care professionals around the
world questioning vaccination? The controversy stems from the thousands
of deaths and permanent disabilities attributed to vaccination annually,
as well as the many published medical studies, government statistics,
congressional
testimonies, and other credible sources that directly contradict commonly
held assumptions about vaccine safety and effectiveness.
Bart Classen, a Maryland physician, published data showing that diabetes
rates rose significantly in New Zealand following a massive hepatitis B
vaccine campaign in young children, and that diabetes rates also went up
sharply in Finland after three new childhood vaccines were introduced.

In fall 1997, two influential professional magazines featured articles
asking the question: Has the decrease of infectious diseases in childhood
through the mass use of vaccines been replaced with an increase in chronic
diseases such as diabetes and asthma? The Economist, a prestigious international
magazine read by world leaders in government, business and public policy,
and Science News, a magazine read by both health care
professionals
and the general public, explored the reported links between vaccines and
chronic diseases in their November 22, 1997 issues.

Hearing: "You mean to tell me that since 1929, we've been using Thimerosal,
and the only test that you know of is from 1929, and every one of
those people had mennigitis, and they all died?" For nearly an hour, Burton
repeatedly asked FDA and CDC officials what they knew and when they knew
it. (Thimerosal contains a related mercury compound called ethyl mercury.
Mercury is a toxic metal that can cause immune, sensory, neurological,
motor, and behavioral dysfunctions.)
