VigRX Plus







VIGRX Plus
IMPORTANT**************************************If you do decide to order any of these products, please bear in mind that only your initial order is covered by the manufacturer's money-back guarantee. We strongly suggest that you order either a 3 or 4 month supply. Orders in excess of 4 month's supply are a waste of money; regardless of the tempting quantity discounts on offer. Likewise, ordering just 1 or 2 month's supply is also throwing your money away, as you will ruin the continuity of treatment whilst you order additional product.************************************** VigRX Plus is our top rated product for this category. It is not only a good product with solid results, but the customer service and return policy (guarantee) make it the top overall performer.
VigRX Plus contains a number of plant compounds including the following herbs: Epimedium sagittatum is known to unlock testosterone in the body, thereby boosting sexual desire and performance. Ginko biloba has been used for many centuries to increase blood circulation in the brain and body extremities, including the sex organs. Saw palmetto extract is used for balancing sex related hormones and in nourishing the prostate.
Hawthorn Berry is known to help with the circulatory system in several ways, and as erections are totally dependent on good circulation, this herb has tremendous beneficial properties. Muria puama and Catuaba are two South American plants known as aphrodisiacs and aids to flagging sexual health in older men.
Not only is the history of these ingredients impressive, but the VigRX Plus formula is well backed by clinical research that shows the effectiveness of each one.
Users of VigRX Plus find it to be very effective in increasing sexual performance overall, with libido enhancement and erection enhancement being the two most popular results.

sex & drugs

Powders, pills and sexy thrills have been the subject of more songs and urban legends than we can count. Putting some of the more romantic ideas to one side, here's TheSite's take on the real highs and lows of chemical lurve.




LSD/ Magic mushrooms

High: Some users report an increased sexual awareness while tripping.

Low: Trips are unpredictable. Hallucinating unpleasantly during sex could be traumatic, while a heavy dose may leave users totally turned off.


Cocaine

High: Cocaine is a stimulant drug. In small doses it can increase sexual arousal and make orgasms and erections easier.

Low: In larger amounts, cocaine can still fuel sexual desire, while decreasing the ability to actually perform properly. Problems achieving erection and orgasm are very common.


Amphetamines (speed)

High: The initial rush may lift the libido, but the feeling is unlikely to last.

Low: Male users may find the penis is less sensitive or responsive, and ejaculation difficult to achieve. As a result, sex can last a long time - which places both partners at risk of chafing (rubbed raw skin). Painfully funny on paper. Pure pain, in reality.


Cannabis

High: Users can feel less inhibited and unfriendly, while the increased sensory perception can turn stoners all touchy-feely.

Low: Blokes on dope risk a reduction in testosterone production, and a drop in sperm count, while females may experience some fertility problems due to changes in ovulation and menstrual cycles.


Ecstasy

High: An increased sense of warmth and empathy towards sexual partner. Some users feel they are more physically aroused, (although others report a loss of sensation and delayed orgasm).

Low: Increases the chances of risky sexual behaviour. A recent study showed users were more likely not to bother using condoms or other forms of contraception. Also, the drug-induced sense of loving everyone around you could mean you wind up sleeping with someone you don't really like at all.


Opiates

High: Drugs such as heroin, morphine and codeine belong to a drug group called opiates, which have a painkilling, detached effect. Codeine, in particular, is a feature in some strong over-the-counter painkilling products, so about the only appeal there, sex-wise, is that headaches won't wash as an excuse.

Low: Opiate misuse can lead to full time problems such as impotence, lowered libido and difficulty attaining orgasm.


Poppers (alkyl nitrites)

High: Some users take poppers during sex because they enjoy the brief, intense head rush and relaxant effect. Particularly popular among gay men.
Low: Alkyl nitrites reduce blood pressure. This means Viagra users should steer clear as the combination could be fatal.

The potential effect of a drug on sex is just one of many factors to consider before taking any substance. Knowledge is power, so get wise to the risks involved right

Sex Drugs and Aphrodisiacs

Sex Drugs and Aphrodisiacs





Almost every vitamin purports to augment potency. As if males are that stupid and penis-centered.

I read an article about sex drug and aphrodisiacs, and immediately went to a health food store and purchased all the legal ones.
May 1995: After taking the minimum recommended dose of all of them after a double-cheeseburger lunch, I can safely say they induce an altered state. In spite of my few fours hours sleep last night, I am a bit peppy, and feel actually flushed and tingly sometimes - in my extremities. The back of my neck was burning something feirce, now it has calmed to a low warmpth.

I introduced about six sex sustaining substances into my body at each meal for two weeks. I started masturbating like a fiend, even though I had been diagnosed with an STD, on medication and not supposed to edjaculate. I had two wet dreams within four days, so seemed something my body was into.

I stopped using them soon, because it was like I was fifteen again, stimulating myself at the cost of productivity and relationships.

I haven't yet tried any of these in the proper circumstances
(what's the use of sustained erection alone?)


Legal Highs
Health Food Store Purchasables
Vitamin B3: Niacin
I took one of these capsules every morning for a couple weeks. I've found the effects are accentuated on a full stomach. Niacin makes me flush something terrible, my skin feels prikly all over, starting on my neck, and spreading to my face, chest and arms. People really freak out when they see me. I made the mistake of taking Niacin and trying to hitchhike in Palo Alto, I think people thought I was on drugs.
But hey, it's neat to feel weird every morning. It's only mildly unpleasant, and it's easy to think it feels cool.
I stopped taking 500 mg every morning when I developed terrible stomach gas - causing me pain when I swallow. I think 500mg is too much for my scrawny ass.
L-Arginine
An Amino Acid that provides nitrogen, which in turn "helps ensure quicker, larger, harder, and longer-lasting erections."
Personally, I wouldn't trace the root of my present sexual problems to this. I need a reason to have erections before I want harder and longer-lasting ones.
Vitamin B-5: pantothenic acid
Reported to increase sexual stamina and relax muscles.
Yohimbe
Augments male sex drive. From Africa, where it was reported to fuel extended orgiastic rituals. I could only find it in liquid extract, bitter tasting bark juice squeeze bottle, diluted in water, puckers your mouth.
I get a persistent woody oftentimes when I drink it. The kind of hard on that doesn't quit. Like when you were young in high school and your penis would get hard against the school desk for no reason and it would last and last and strain against your pants. Having a yohimbe woody is sometimes painful, like you're still hard even after you've edjaculated. That can be useful.
A friend took it, after several months without her period, that day she started bleeding.
Herbal Ecstacy
A big marketing campaign, these butterfly identified blue pills litter the head shops of the Haight. At $20 for 10, and 5 to 10 to get off, it's cheaper than the real thing.
I took some of it, after Jeeks reported (after 15 on an empty stomach) that he couldn't believe it was legal. I didn't find it all that amazing, just peppizing, but I was also on GHB at the time.
Harder to Find
In search of these, I visited six pharmacies in Reynoso, Mexico, just across the border. None of them had this stuff in the straight form, I had to look them up in a Physician's Desk Reference to get the manufactured name under which the drug was sold. Even then, the pharmacies only carried those drugs that are produced in Mexico, which is a very few.
Testosterone
I figure I might have enough of this, but I'm still trying to find a little extra...
Bromocriptine
I found this drug for sale across the border, under the name of Parlodel (mfg. Sandoz Pharmecuiticals). It is supposed to enhance libido, and sustain erection, again, I am waiting for more favourable circumstances.
Deprenyl
I asked my uncle about this one, he sez my grampa takes this for his parkinsons. He sez it wrenches Grampa's stomach, he has to take another drug to compensate.
Deprenyl was listed under Selegiline Hydrochloride, which is not manufactured in Mexico (at least not where I was at).
My sister Lynn was after Deprenyl to sustain vitality.

causes of impotance

Many conditions can cause impotence
Since an erection requires a sequence of events, impotence can occur when any of the events is disrupted. The sequence includes nerve impulses in the brain, spinal column, and area of the penis, and response in muscles, fibrous tissues, veins, and arteries in and near the corpora cavernosa.
Damage to arteries, smooth muscles, and fibrous tissues, often as a result of disease, is the most common cause of impotence. Diseases--including diabetes, kidney disease, chronic alcoholism, multiple sclerosis, atherosclerosis, and vascular disease--account for about 70 percent of cases of impotence. Between 35 and 50 percent of men with diabetes experience impotence.
Surgery (for example, prostate surgery) can injure nerves and arteries near the penis, causing impotence. Injury to the penis, spinal cord, prostate, bladder, and pelvis can lead to impotence by harming nerves, smooth muscles, arteries, and fibrous tissues of the corpora cavernosa.
Also, many common medicines produce impotence as a side effect. These include high blood pressure drugs, antihistamines, antidepressants, tranquilizers, appetite suppressants, and cimetidine (an ulcer drug).
Experts believe that psychological factors cause 10 to 20 percent of cases of impotence. These factors include stress, anxiety, guilt, depression, low self-esteem, and fear of sexual failure. Such factors are broadly associated with more than 80 percent of cases of impotence, usually as secondary reactions to underlying physical causes.
Other possible causes of impotence are smoking, which affects blood flow in veins and arteries, and hormonal abnormalities, such as insufficient testosterone.
Points To Remember
Impotence is a consistent inability to sustain an erection sufficient for sexual intercourse.
Impotence affects 10 to 15 million American men.
Impotence usually has a physical cause.
Impotence is treatable in all age groups.
Treatments include psychotherapy, drug therapy, vacuum devices, and surgery.

Erectile Dysfunction

Erectile Dysfunction
Is Erectile Dysfunction the same thing as impotence?
Yes. Impotence is the old-fashioned term. Erectile Dysfunction, in its sole definition, is the inability to get or keep an erection firm enough for sexual intercourse.

Nerve pulses in the brain, spinal column, and around the penis, and fibrous tissues, muscles, and veins in and around the corpora cavernosa must all be sequentially correct to allow for an erection. Because an erection involves these specific sequences to occur, Erectile Dysfunction happens when any of those events are interrupted.

Erectile Dysfunction affects 15-30 million men in America. Not only are the men affected, but so are their partners.

If a man occasionally experiences symptoms of Erectile Dysfunction, it does not mean he has Erectile Dysfunction. An occasion problem is normal and is should not be exaggerated. If a man experiences these problems for more than two months, he should consult a specialist.

Is Erectile Dysfunction new?
Because the strong culture of silence among men has been lifted, Erectile Dysfunction can now be discussed. This release has allowed men to realize their potency and success as a man does not rise and fall just because they live with Erectile Dysfunction. Though men now have freedom to talk about Erectile Dysfunction, they may initially feel the shame, embarrassment, inadequacy, and feel as though they have lost something.

As the insurgence of treatments and drugs became widely available, the acceptance and willingness to talk about Erectile Dysfunction became widely welcomed.

Viagra may have single-handedly lifted the code of silence in regards to Erectile Dysfunction with its popular introduction in 1998.

There were only a reported 7.7 doctor visits for every 1,000 men in American in 1985. In 1999, that number almost tripled to a whopping 22.3 doctor visits.

What causes Erectile Dysfunction?
Put simply, anything that causes injury or disrupts blood flow to the penis is a potential cause of Erectile Dysfunction.

Diabetes is a causation of Erectile Dysfunction. This is the case especially if nerve damage was sustained because a man has lived with diabetes for a long period of time.

Cardiovascular disorders can cause Erectile Dysfunction.

Prostate cancer operations can cause Erectile Dysfunction.

Side effects from prescription drugs are a leading cause for Erectile Dysfunction.

Not surprising, age plays its part in the development of Erectile Dysfunction. However, Erectile Dysfunction is not defined as being an undeniable passage into aging. About 5% of men older than 40 experience Erectile Dysfunction. Another 15-25% of men older than 65 live with Erectile Dysfunction.

Multiple sclerosis is one cause of Erectile Dysfunction.

Hormonal disorders can also cause Erectile Dysfunction.

Alcohol and drug abuse cause Erectile Dysfunction.

Emotional problems can also lead to Erectile Dysfunction. Anxiety, depression, fear of not performing, guilt, and low self-esteem are responsible for 20% of the Erectile Dysfunction cases reported.

Who is at risk for Erectile Dysfunction?
Men who abuse their bodies with alcohol and drugs
Men who are anxious, depressed, or stressed
Men who take certain prescriptions
Men who have suffered trauma or surgery damage
Men who have chronic diseases or disorders
Men who are overweight and don’t exercise
Smokers lead the pack (no pun intended) as a cause of Erectile Dysfunction.
What are the warning signs of Erectile Dysfunction?
If a man begins to notice some warning signs such as orgasms taking longer to achieve, less intense orgasms, direct stimulation needed where it wasn’t before, a reduced volume of ejaculate, or longer recovery periods between erections, medical advice should be sought.

How is Erectile Dysfunction diagnosed?
Talk to a specialist. He will ask you questions that involve your medical history, as well as your sexual history. Share your concerns with him honestly. Your answers will direct him to the correct diagnosis.

Your medical provider may want to perform a physical exam to rule out other problems or to reveal systemic problems.

Several tests may be scheduled for proper diagnosis: blood counts, lipid profile, measurements of creatinine, liver enzymes, free testosterone in the blood, and urinalysis.

If necessary, specialized tests like an ultrasonography to test the arterial circulation in the genital organs, neurological evaluation to assess nerve damage, cavernosometry to measure the penile vascular pressure, or a cavernosonography to allow abnormalities in the blood flow to and from the penis to be traced with an injected dye, may be scheduled.

Monitoring erections while a man sleeps is another test, but because it has been proven inconclusive, no warrant is provided here.

Sometimes a medical provider may schedule a psychosocial exam to reveal possible psychological reasons for Erectile Dysfunction.

How can Erectile Dysfunction be treated?
Discuss with your specialist the possibility of your Erectile Dysfunction being caused by a medication you currently take. Certain medications are a big cause of Erectile Dysfunction. In fact, this reason accounts for 20-25% of the Erectile Dysfunction cases.

For others, simple lifestyle changes can reverse their Erectile Dysfunction. Quit smoking. Lose weight. Exercise. Reduce stress. Get enough sleep. Get regular physical examinations.

Therapy and surgery are rare, but recommended when necessary.

Of course, there are drugs. Viagra, Levitra, and Cialis. These inhibitors are not recommended for more than one dose a day, and they come with certain side effects.

Furthermore, men who take nitrate-based drugs or alpha-blockers should not take an inhibitor such as Viagra, Levitra, or Cialis.

Men who have suffered from a stroke or heart attack within the last six months should not take Viagra, Levitra, or Cialis.

Drugs, like Caverject, are directly injected into the penis, but they come with side effects.

Muse, a system for pellet insertion, is fast acting, but causes side effects that involve aching, redness, burning sensation, and bleeding.

Mechanical vacuum devices involve several parts and they must remain intact during sexual activity.

Oral testosterone is another option, but it may cause liver damage and is most often ineffective.

Surgery is an option, but all surgeries come with risks. For Erectile Dysfunction, it’s the younger men who make the best candidates.

Natural supplements. More than 74% of Americans now look for alternative methods for their physical needs. Research what’s available to make the choice that’s right for you.

How is a man supposed to live with Erectile Dysfunction?
Communication is key. Talk to your partner. Learn everything you can about Erectile Dysfunction together. Talk to your doctor. Ask him questions. Some couples find success in counseling. Treatment always proves more successful when there’s teamwork.

Erectile Dysfunction is not a life-long battle. Research happens everyday. You don’t have to lose hope... because there is hope.

New Hope for Smokers with Back Pain

New Hope for Smokers with Back Pain




There’s a unique drug now on the market for smokers trying to quit - Chantix (manufactured and distributed by Pfizer). It was actually approved by the FDA in May 2006 and given priority FDA review because of its significant potential benefit to public health.

Chantix, a prescription drug indicated for smoking cessation, is different because it acts on the brain in two ways: by providing some nicotine effects to ease withdrawal symptoms and by blocking the effects of nicotine from cigarettes if patients resume smoking.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), an estimated 44.5 million adults in the United States smoke cigarettes and more than 8.6 million of them have at least one serious illness caused by smoking. In particular, smokers are nearly 3 times as likely to develop chronic low back pain as non-smokers.

According to a user survey conducted on Spine-health.com, about 30% of the chronic back pain population self reports having a smoking addiction. Couple this with the fact that about 80% of those same people are candidates for back surgery – and we have trouble. Smokers are at higher risk for healing problems after fusion surgery, which means that potentially the chronic back pain problem and the smoking addiction will remain after surgery if smokers with back pain don’t quit.

It is common for back surgeons to ask their patients to quit smoking prior to surgery and commit to not smoking for at least three months after surgery (and hopefully longer, from an overall health standpoint). In recent months, we have heard anecdotally from some of our physician members that they have seen great results using Chantix with their back pain patients. Other smoking cessation aids include:Zyban (pill), Nicotrol (nasal spray), Nicorette (gum), Nicoderm CQ (patches), Habitrol (patches), Commit (lozenges), and counseling and support groups.If you are a smoker with back pain, you should consider talking to your doctor about smoking cessation aids – to help you quit smoking and to ease your back pain.
