Health Update On Intrinsic Causes of Impotence

All over the world, thousands of men suffer from impotence due to various causes. These may be psychological, lifestyle or physical issues that may remain untreated and lead to sexual disorders. Often, men suffering from impotence are unable to recognize and admit to this problem. Rather than ignoring it, you need to gain knowledge about the ailment and how to deal with its causes.

Some of the main reasons leading to impotence include:

  • Heart Diseases – People suffering from cardiovascular and heart diseases may have blocked arteries. These curtail the flow of blood to the penis and hamper the ability to achieve an erection. Impotence can be prevented by reducing the hardening of arteries due to hypertension, smoking, high cholesterol and diabetes.
  • Diabetes – If you are a diabetes patient, your nerves may deteriorate and cause impotence. By keeping your blood sugar at normal levels, you can maintain proper blood flow and decrease chances of impotence.
  • Nervous Disorders – Impotence may be caused by Parkinson’s disease, spinal cord problems and multiple sclerosis.
  • Aging – As you grow older, the testosterone production in the body declines. This can also reduce the ability to form an erection and trigger sexual dysfunction.
  • Smoking and Drugs – Impotence may be a side effect of certain drugs, be it personally taken or prescription based. If you smoke regularly, you are more prone to impotence than non-smokers.
  • Alcohol – Too much drinking can also lead you to experience impotence temporarily. However, addicts may suffer from hormonal imbalance due to excessive alcohol consumption and nerve damage.

Once you have recognized impotence and want to get treatment, consult a doctor for determining the right course of action. They may recommend medications like Viagra, Levitra or Cialis after running several tests. Apart from serious health problems, your doctor may just prescribe oral medication to treat impotence.

The electronic cigarette experience

no-smokingI was amazed when I saw a friend of mine smoking in a pub in London. It’s not legal I thought. Now I understand why he was smoking! He bought an electronic cigarette.

In the United Kingdom it’s legal to smoke electronic cigarettes where usually normal cigarettes are not allowed. I’m talking about pubs, restaurants, stations, trains and so on.

But let’s see the pros and cons of electronic cigarette:

Pros

  • Cheaper than cigarettes

  • You can smoke it almost anywhere

  • There is no combustion of tobacco

  • No flame or smoke

  • Some experts say it’s not as unhealthy as normal cigarettes

Cons

  • Battery can finish while you are smoking without warning

  • Some experts say that you smoke more as a cartridge lasts longer than a normal cigarette

  • Made in China – Some brands are not that good

  • Some brands could sell dangerous version – toxic or not really controlled

  • Flavour is similar but not identical to cigarettes

Who should buy an electronic cigarette

I think that the electronic cigarette is something interesting to try. I use it myself now, and I have many friends that use it. But I have some friends and people that I know that don’t like the feel of the electronic cigarette – they think that it’s not the same thing.

How to chose the right brand

You can find electronic cigarettes online and in bricks and mortar shops. Prices vary a lot, and so does quality. Be careful to avoid electronic cigarettes that contain diethylene glycol – as the American FDA warns it can be toxic.

A UK based shop that sells electronic cigarettes also online is e-cigy.com. There products are registered and certified from the European Authorities like the ROHS, UKAS, GMP and SGS.

When you buy electronic cigarettes always check if they are certified buy those authorities.

Smoking and its consequences

Cigarette burning in ashtray uid 1344167Would you dare buy an edible product that had written on the package the following phrase, “Caution, this product is harmful to your health? Would you pay for a product that definitely is bad for your health? It may seem foolish to do this, but the worst is that millions of people are right now consuming a product that causes thousands of illnesses. The cigarette is a carrier of very dangerous toxic and we can say that they are so powerful poisons that cause lung cancer in all smokers, if they don’t die of some other disease. It was found in a cigarette, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide, nicotine, pyridine, and other harmful substances. When inhaled in cigarette smoke, the poisons are absorbed, and through the blood it goes through the whole smoker’s body to achieve the finest cells of the nervous system. Nicotine has a constrictor action on blood vessels, thus preventing tissue nervous irrigation, and while intoxicate brain cells. Blood pressure increases and heart rate became faster by the excitation of the heart. Acting on the respiratory systems and other nerves systems, will result in difficulty in breathing.

However, it is not only nicotine that acts against the nervous system. Depending on the number of cigarettes smoked, it can cause irritation to the central nerve system and even respiratory paralysis by inhibiting the nervous control.

When a smoker feels anxiety, nausea, vomiting, cold sweat, abundant saliva, dizziness, headaches, ringing in the ears, are actually caused by smoking. Although smokers imagine that to smoke will calm him down, this is just a self-suggestion. Not a single scientist in the world, no doctor or researcher who disagrees with this view. Smoking produces melancholy, depression and even nervousness. Reduces the ability to think properly and even memory lost.

Usually a smoker hears from the doctor: “You need to stop smoking, if not, you will worse your respiratory and cardiac problems.” But while giving this advice, the doctor keeps on his desk a package of cigarettes. How can induce someone to leave a harmful addiction, when you do not give an example? How parents, educators, young people can refer to stop smoking, when they own living with a cigarette between his fingers? To talk without giving the example does not work.

The fear of death and disease are not enough strong arguments. Once the individual has experienced a pleasant feeling, even if it is something poisonous, he will try other times. It is not easy arguing with a smoker, an alcoholic or drug addict. They will not hear the voice of reason.
