Mediterranean diet is one of the best diet’s out there. This particular meal plan incorporates some the healthiest foods available. Fruit, vegetables, fish, healthy fats (olive oil and canola oil), red wine, and nuts are just a few of the recommended foods. The focus of this weight loss plan is not to reduce fat consumption but to make smarter choices about the foods you consume.

Raw veggies, fruit, whole wheat pasta, healthy fats, and brown rice are all major components of this diet. For instance, olive oil provides our bodies with monosaturated fat which in turn reduces our LDL cholesterol levels. That is why it is wise to consume these fats instead and saturated or trans fats. When you go to the grocery store to pick up this item, simply remember that extra virgin and virgin olive oils are the least processed. Eating nuts is also essential in this particular diet. Nuts are a great way to sustain your appetite until meal time. Try consuming walnuts, almonds or pecans. Walnuts are rich in omega 3 fatty acids which are beneficial for your heart. However, be sure not to exceed your intake of this product, a handful is enough. Furthermore, remember to avoid the honey roasted and heavily salted kind. They may taste better but their health attributes are greatly reduced.

Another important aspect of the Mediterranean diet is the substitution of red meat for fish. Red meat is highly unhealthy that is why it is important to substitute it for a variety of fish (salmon, mackerel, and herring). And as far as beverages go, this particular weight loss program revolves around red wine. Red wine has been linked to reduced risk of heart disease. It acts almost like aspirin because it thins out the blood and permits it to flow more freely. So if you ever wanted to try a healthy diet without giving up all food, this may be the right choice for you.

Inverse psoriasis is a rare form of psoriasis that actually doesn’t look much like what we think of as psoriasis at all. First of all, it doesn’t show up in the usual places we normally see psoriasis. Secondly, it is not as well treated by the usual treatments involved in psoriasis.

Inverse psoriasis begins as small, red lesions or spots in the folds of the skin. This may include the area beneath the breasts, the armpits, the creases in the groin, the skin beneath the fat folds of the abdomen, and the creases in the urogenital folds. It can also appear in the gluteal cleft or the space between your buttocks cheeks. Because inverse psoriasis requires these skin folds, it is much more common for people who are overweight to get it.

Unlike plaque-type psoriasis, inverse psoriasis does not build up as many scales and instead, the lesions look confluent, well-demarcated and very red. It can be bright red in color and can have smooth patches of skin that are itchy and sometimes painful. Anytime a patient with this disease rubs his or her skin together as in walking with thighs rubbing together or rubbing the skin in the armpits together, psoriasis worsens and is aggravated by the movement. People find it painful to move around when the disease becomes severe.

Yeast infections of the skin are commonly associated with inverse psoriasis but it is not known whether the yeast infection triggers the psoriasis or whether the irritated and sweaty skin from the psoriasis causes the yeast infection. In order to properly treat such a condition, it is important to treat both the yeast infection with a yeast infection cream or yeast infection pill, and the inverse psoriasis with the various inverse psoriasis treatments available.

The treatment of inverse psoriasis is difficult due to the high sensitivity of the affected skin. Steroid ointments and creams tend to be very effective; however, you cannot use steroid occlusive dressings because it only makes the moisture build up even more. If you overuse the steroid cream, the skin can thin out too much and you can get excess stretch marks in the skin. Because the skin involved in inverse psoriasis is already too thin, there can be systemic side effects and increased skin side effects that occur as a result of using steroid cream that is too strong or is used for too long. Diluted topical steroids such as 1-2 percent hydrocortisone cream can be used along with an antifungal cream.

Dovonex or calcipotriene is another topical agent that can work well for inverse psoriasis but it can be very irritating to this delicate skin and should be used with caution. The same holds true for coal tar preparations and anthralin cream. Irritation of the skin can only make the psoriasis worse. Some topical treatments include Protopic and Elidel, which have also been approved for eczema.

Systemic treatment is the best form of treatment in patients with a lot of skin involvement and irritation of the skin. Systemic therapy involves biologics that are given in injectable form every other week and that act directly on the immune system to reduce its activity. Enbrel and Humira are examples of biologics that are given by injection and can produce a drastic change in the appearance and symptoms of inverse psoriasis.

The French Paradox is the name given to the phenomenon in which the French, who eat several times more butter and lard than we do and who smoke more, have 2 1/2 fewer heart attacks.

Researchers believe that the answer may be, in part, due to the fact that the French outdo us in the daily consumption of red wine which, in moderation, has long been thought to be heart-healthy.

Red wine contains flavonoids and resveratrols, substances that have been linked to a lower incidence of heart disease. Both of these compounds have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Researchers believe that these substances have the effect of increasing the levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, the “good” cholesterol, thereby reducing the formation of blood clots, and they also help in preventing damage to the arteries caused by high levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) the “bad” cholesterol

The resveratrol in red wine comes from the skin of the grapes that are used in making the wine. In white wine the skins are not used. The grapes produce resveratrol as protection against fungal infection. Because of this, the amount of resversatrol in red wine varies from vineyard to vineyard depending on climate and other growing conditions. The amount of rersveratrol is greater in grapes that are grown organically or in dry regions.

For those who may consider drinking red wine as a remedy to heart conditions, a recent article posted by the Mayo Clinic urges caution. They point out in the article that while the heart-health benefits of red wine look promising, more research is needed in order to know if red wine is better for the heart than other forms of alcohol. For those who already drink red wine, they advise us to do so in moderation.

The generally accepted definition of “moderate” drinking is no more than two six ounce glasses of wine a day for men, and one six ounce glass of wine a day for women. Because men generally weigh more, and because they have more of an enzyme that metabolizes alcohol, their limits are higher than women.

In general, medical experts don’t recommend that non-drinkers start drinking red wine as a means of preventing heart disease, as alcohol can be addictive and its misuse can cause other health problems. Women may want to take into account that there may be a connection between drinking alcohol and breast cancer. For teetotalers, there are happy alternatives. According to a study conducted by the University of Wisconsin-Madison, purple grape juice, white grape juice and red wine were all tested for their heart protective effects. The results showed that purple grape juice was every bit as beneficial as red wine, perhaps even more so. Or, if you’d rather pop a capsule in your mouth when happy hour rolls around, a month’s supply of resverasol can be had for about the cost of a medium-priced bottle of wine.

In summary, a limited amount of red wine can have the beneficial effect of relaxing the body so that blood pressure is lowered, whereas too much red wine, or any other alcoholic drink, increases the risk of high blood pressure. As the old saying goes: “All things in moderation.”

The best part about learning to jelq is the variety of ways you can improve your results.

As I’ve pointed out…when I first learned how to jelq, I was doing it ALL wrong. Yet….I still got noticeable gains. It took a lot longer than necessary I’m sure. And I probably didn’t get nearly as big as I would have, had I practiced properly from jump. But kind of like sex or pizza…..there really is NO bad way to jelq, even if you’re on a budget and can’t afford to learn the right moves.

Here are great ways to speed your size gains without spending a ton of money on risky drugs, pills or supplements:

Practice with a wider variety of grips. Tension and traction are both popular…..and yet, offer different results. I recommend using them TOGETHER, with more traditional jelqing techniques, for maximum improvements to your manhood, in minimum time.

Warm UP and Warm Down: And I mean this both literally and figuratively alike. Stretching, both before and after PE exercise is a great way to get faster gains….without doing much else at all. And quite literally, using a warm compress for 3-5 minutes both before and after your exercise, is a well known “cheat” that many men use to open up the blood vessels, soften the tissue, and allow for a much more effective (and enjoyable) exercise.

Do it with Diet, too! The truth is, the foods you eat play a big role in your male enhancement exercise. Go for the GREENS, the blues, the reds and the darks, too! In other words, spinach and green leafy vegetables, blue and red berries and even dark chocolate (natural cacao) are all thought to add important anthocyanins and phytonturitents (both powerful natural anti-oxidants) to the diet that can expedite your growth in a really big way. (no pun intended) They work by opening up the blood vessels, and when combined with the natural torque and tension applied through jelqing properly….are a great way to “toughen” the spongy tissue in the penis, as well as drive more blood to the glans. Don’t take MY word for it though….give the above a try and PROVE it yourself once and for all – you deserve it.

Can Pepcid AC Cure Asian Glow?

If you turn red after a few alcoholic drinks, you might have Asian glow. Most likely, the reason why you’re reading this is because you’ve experienced it already and your friends told you what it might be.

So, What is Asian Glow?

Basically, in simple terms, it’s when your body can’t metabolize alcohol at a fast enough rate. In order to break down the alcohol, an enzyme needs to be produced. For Asian glow sufferers, this enzyme is deficient and doesn’t work properly. Because of this enzyme deficiency, the result is your body starts to accumulate toxins, which in turn causes the blushing and other symptoms.

The reference to Asians is because it affects as many as 50% of all people of Asian descent, mostly affecting Japanese, Chinese, Korean or other East Asian people. But don’t think you can’t have it, if you’re not Asian. It is not limited to Asians. Anybody can have it.

OK, So What Can I Do To Get Rid Of It?

Unfortunately, there is no magic pill you can buy over-the-counter at your local drug store that is made specifically for this condition. As I mentioned before, the root cause of this disorder, is a deficiency in a particular enzyme, ADLH2 that helps break down alcohol. If there was a pill that produced this enzyme, you have your cure.

What you do you have is some over-the-counter drugs that will help reduce the symptoms. The most popular drug that is being used for Asian glow is Pepcid AC, Zantac, Tagamet and Axid. These drugs are H2 blockers whose main purpose is to work on reducing gastric acid in your stomach and help with acid reflux condition.

So How Does This Help With My Asian Glow?

Alcohol consumption will generally irritate your stomach lining and create more gastric acid. Taking a H2 blocker like Pepcid AC will help reduce the gastric acid in your stomach and counteract the effect of the alcohol. As a result, it should slow down the effects of Asian glow on your system because it helps with the metabolism of alcohol in your body. This may not make complete sense to you but all you need to know it will help. As to the extent of how much it will help you, depends on your body.

Many Sufferers Say It Helps Them.

Forums and blogs are flooded with comments from sufferers commenting on how much Pepcid AC or like drugs have either helped them, not helped them or somewhere in between. After reading a few of these forums, you end up more confused them ever. John will say “It cures my symptoms. I can drink like a fish now”. And then, there’s Mary, who will say “I take one drink and I still get red and I still get nauseous.” Once again, what I’ve learned from reading these, is that everybody will react differently to taking these drugs. For some it will work; for some it won’t.

The best advice I can give you is to give it a try and see if it helps. If not, try some other methods that don’t involve medication. Methods such as drinking slower, drink an alcoholic beverage with lower alcoholic content, avoid mixed drinks. The main thing is to avoid the symptoms altogether. Continuing to drink and still experiencing the Asian glow symptoms is not smart. It could affect your general health in the long run.

Your ringworm cream choice is important providing you have determined the proper diagnosis.

Ringworm is not a worm but rather a fungus. The location of the ringworm is important for the proper diagnosis. The ringworm can be seen as a inflammation with a circular look to it. The ringworm outer edges will look red. The center area of the ringworm will look like normal skin with the outer area being raised and crusty. You can also experience extreme itchiness with this type of fungus.

Your ringworm cream usually works best depending on the location and type of the infected human area. The creams that are used for humans do not work as well with animals. Shampoos and dips usually are best for animal treatments. Consulting with your vet is mandatory for the proper cure and method of application.

Anti fungal creams are used mostly for treatments. Oral medication may be necessary depending on the severity of the inflammation. Athlete’s foot and jock itch will probably require more than over-the-counter medication.

Yes, ringworm can spread to other places of the body. The more difficult areas to treat are the scalp (ringworm scalp) and the toenails. Typical treatments include creams, lotions and even nail polish. In some cases, an anti fungal pill prescription by your doctor is the best method of treatment. For ringworm scalp, an anti fugal pill or a prescription ringworm cream will probably be necessary for a speedy recovery.

Over-the-counter ointments and creams typically have miconazole or clotrimazole. Brand name products are Lotrimin, Micatin, Tinactin and Monistat. Lamisil contains terbinafin which is a type of anti fungal drug. Your doctor will have a wide variety of prescription based medications such as Allylajines. Allylajines is available in a cream, gel or pill form.

Your ringworm cream choice is important providing you have determined the proper diagnosis for a speedy and healthy recovery.

Extenze is a male enhancer made in the form of an herbal supplement pill. This product is to be taken 1 pill everyday and guarantees an increase in your penis’ size, improved erection etc… But, of course, people are mostly interested in identifying if there are any possible Extenze side effects once it is used. In the internet, there can be found a lot of both positive and negative feedbacks, and everyone is just looking for the truth.

In any case, if you are taking any medication for a particular illness you have, you shouldn’t even consider using Extenze at all. If you have a chronic sickness that is being treated, Extenze might not work well for you. Hypertensive individuals are not allowed to use Extenze either since some of the product’s ingredients can cause changes in the blood pressure. It could be dangerous for one’s health if this is ignored. Other persons who are not advised to use Extenze are those with concurrent migraines, cardiovascular problems, diabetes and so on.

In some uncommon cases, Extenze caused some skin problems, like a rash or hives. People with low immunity commonly experience this kind of allergic reaction. So once you get these problems, you better stop using Extenze and seek immediate treatment for your immunity problem and allergies from your physician before these becomes a big issue in the future.

Yohimbe, a particular ingredient found in this male enhancer, might cause some problems to other people. Though the amount of yohimbe present in this product is very minimal, this is still an herb banned in many countries because of the unpredictable reactions other people get with it. Nevertheless, all remaining ingredients are totally safe as Extenze only contains natural plant extracts.

Also, you should always ask your physician to help you by assessing the ingredients of Extenze and to inform you whether it is safe for you to use. This is the probably the best preventive measure you can take in order to make sure that no untoward Extenze side effects will occur once you start using this product.

As for the rest, Extenze has no other side effects. You must have observed that Extenze side effects are only present to people who have other underlying health problems. If you are in perfect health, except for the fact that you would like an improvement in your sexual life, then Extenze will be good for you.

Cystic acne is a severe skin disorder and it has been a task for the scientists to find out its causes. An excessive production of sebum by the sebaceous glands is held responsible for cystic acne. Due to the changes in the hormonal levels known as androgens the sebaceous glands become overactive. It develops into an inflammation on the skin and red spots known as pimples appear on the skin. These pimples further goes deep into the skin thereby causing painful cysts.

Not all the acne appearing on the skin is cystic acne. Although the main cause for the formation of pimples, acne and cystic acne is similar, some symptoms differentiate cystic acne. Cystic acne is an acute condition and forms mainly due to the blockage of the skin pores with sweat, dirt and bacteria. Usually acne and pimples appear at puberty and disappear on its own in the course of time. They normally do not need any medication. When acne causes deep, painful and inflamed legions it is considered cystic. Often the situation is uncontrollable and nodules producing inflammation and pus start appearing. This condition compulsorily needs a treatment, as the painful cystic acne will not resolve on its own. Heredity is one of the main causes of cystic acne. It occurs also to women mostly during certain days of the menstrual cycle. It can also occur as a side effect to a certain kind of medications.

You can find many home remedies like creams and facial scrubs available in the market. However, before making use of them, get medical advice and go for the suitable remedy for your problem. Otherwise, you may end up aggravating the causes of cystic acne. Isotretinion is a pill taken for a course to treat cystic acne depending upon the severity of the acne condition. This pill is most popular and has proved to be more effective. Nevertheless, you should not use this drug without proper medical guidance as this pill carries side effects that are more serious. Women using these pills experience miscarriages and birth related defects during their later stages. Moreover, if you have started using these pills make sure to take birth control measures and avoid conception during the medication. The Isotretinion pills that are also known as Accutane should be strictly avoided in case of pregnancy. In spite of its side effects, this drug clears off the problem more effectively. This pill is a man made form of vitamin-A and is to be taken orally for about five to six months. It decreases the sebum production and provides a great relief. Once the drug works out you will find a clear skin, which will last for many years and you may not need any medication in future.

If the problem of cystic acne continues in spite of trying traditional treatments then you may have to get the assistance of a dermatologist. You can get an acne surgery done for the removal of cysts. The dermatologist extracts and drains the lesions with the help of sterile instruments. He may also suggest another method of treatment like Interlesional Cortico Steroid injections. In this method, the dermatologist tries to remove the cyst by directly injecting the mild steroid into the affected lesion. You can see the result very slowly but it is also an effective way to remove cysts.

The type of treatment for cystic acne depends upon the severity of the case. Hence, only a medical practitioner could properly guide you as to which remedy will suit you the best. By following his or her advice, you can avoid the causes of treat them safely.
