7 Vital Vitamins for Pregnant Women

When you are pregnant it is very important your baby gets the right vitamins and minerals. If your diet is currently lacking in certain vitamins or minerals this can seriously affect the development of your unborn child. In this article I outline seven vital vitamins for pregnant women and explain why they are important.

1) Vitamin A:- This vitamin assists in the development of a baby”s bones and teeth. Not getting enough Vitamin A can lead to your baby suffering from eyesight problems. There are multiple dietary sources of Vitamin A including; carrots, sweet potatoes, liver, eggs and mangos.

2) Vitamin B12:- This vitamim works with Folic Acid to help create healthy red blood cells in your baby. Vitamin B12 can be found in; dairy products, shellfish, eggs, poultry and red meat, as well as vegan products such as soy milk and tofu.

3) Vitamin C:- This Vitamin is essential for the healthy development of your baby”s immune system. Vitamin C is largely found in fruits and vegetables such as; citrus fruits, rasberries, green beans, papaya, brocolli, tomatoes and bell peppers.

4) Vitamin D:- This vitamin is required for healthy bone development in your baby as it helps the body ingest calcium. Babies require a relatively high level of Vitamin D whilst they are growing. Many products are fortified with Vitamin D including; fortified milk, baby formula milk, eggs and fatty fish. You can also get some of your Vitamin D requirements by spending time in the sun.

5) Vitamin B9 (Folic Acid/Folate):- Folic Acid is very important for the replication of DNA, cell growth and tissue formation. A Folic Acid deficiency can create a number of neural tube defects in your baby such as spina bifida, a condition where the spinal cord does not form properly. Folic Acid can be found in; oranges, leafy vegetables, broccoli, pasta, sunflower seeds and strawberries.

6) Vitamin B3 (Niacin):- Niacin helps build the placenta in pregnant women. It can be found in; whole grains, fortified cereals, bread products, milk, meats and peanuts.

7) Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin):- Riboflavin helps the baby develop bones, muscles and a nervous system. Not getting enough Riboflavin can lead to pre-ecclampsia (a condition causing abnormally high blood pressure and fluid retention in expectant mothers) and also suppress the development of the baby”s immune system. Riboflavin can be sourced in; meat, fish, eggs and fortified cereals.

As you can see consuming the right vitamins makes a significant contribution to the healthy development of your unborn child. I hope this article gives you some sound advice on the topic. However, it is important that you consult your doctor also as they are trained in this area and can provide you with professional advice on vitamins and possible supplementation.

Natural Way to Get Rid of Parasites

Parasites do not belong to bacteria or virus. They are live and quite bigger than bacteria or virus. However, parasites and worms can bring you a big health problem. Such parasites occur generally during the summer months and can affect various human organs such as stomach, colons, liver, kidney, bloods and in some bad case, even the brain. Parasites rest inside those organs and feed themselves with the food you eat or the blood you have. They initially may not produce any symptoms but later on, they can suck up your energy levels and can make organs weaker and luckily, there is a natural way to get rid of parasites in every folk medical science.

Parasites – threats to internal organs

Human parasite and worm is nowadays, upcoming health ailment in all societies. Parasites” infestation could be primarily due to many diseases, illness and infections. Intestinal parasites can be cleansed off in very effective manner with the help of some natural therapies. Parasites, especially intestinal parasites are generally caused by two main types namely; protozoa or helminths.

Common symptoms of parasite infestation include diarrhea, flatulance or bloating, vomiting or nausea, abdominal pain, disturbed digestion and fatigue or weakness. In children, significant weight loss without any other symptoms indicates worms or parasites” infestation. They also produce typical symptoms such as itching around anus, redness around anus, polyphagia (over eating, excess hunger) etc.

Natural way to get rid of parasites

Colon cleansing is the most effective treatment for intestinal cleansing that can get all the parasites out of the body. Generally such cleansing includes the use of a high fiber or roughage diet and supplements like Psyllium husks, citrus pectin, garlic, pumpkin (preferably seeds), ripe papaya”s extract, activated charcoal, roots of the beets and/or linseeds. However, there is no clinical data or laboratory researches favoring these all as anti-parasite treatment but they are very effective since they are still prescribed in alternative medicines.

Garlic and ginger have been found very effective in Ascaris (roundworm), Giardia lamblia, Plasmodium, and Leishmania infestations. One can go for any formula containing garlic or can eat raw garlic pods. Another colon cleansing herb includes goldenseal (Hydrastis Canadensis). The herb has been prescribed historically for worms” infestations and also to cure infections of the mucous membranes present in various human tracts such as respiratory, gastrointestinal etc. Black walnut is another safe and effective remedy for cleansing the colon and to treat parasites. Black walnut”s unripe hulls” juice is used to treat various parasites. As said before, pumpkin seeds (Curcubita pepo) are considered to be very beneficial in treating tapeworms and roundworms.

Some of the folk medicinal science such as Ayurveda believes that Neem is the best herb for treating worms or parasites in any herbal science. Simple decoction of the Neem leaves taken early in the morning for about 15-30 days can kill all the parasites present in the intestines. This is because Neem contains some volatile substances that are good for human intestines but poisonous to the parasites.

Women Who Have Been Active Early in Sexual Activity Can Have A Cervical Cancer

Studies reveal that cancer of the cervix occurs more often in women who become sexually active in early life. Cervix cancers may cause by a human papilloma virus (HPV). This virus is spread through sex and it can cause infection in the cervix or any part of woman sex organ. However, this virus never last long because the body can fight this virus (HPV), unlike the HIV. But if the body can”t fight the virus it will affect the cervix and turns into pre- cancer cells.

As of now most cervix cancers can be prevented and can be cure if diagnosed earlier through the use of Pap smear test. During the test, if the doctor can detect the abnormal cells she will recommend directly a medication so that the women can recover easily or if the cancer its already in full bloom operation would be a good option.

Cervix cancer may not cause any symptom or symptom less in its early stage. But in time, it too usually cause abnormal bleeding or increased vaginal discharge. Women who have cervical cancer can feel moderate pain during sexual intercourse. The years of greatest risk for cancer of the cervix are when the women reached the age of forty to forty- nine years old.

To avoid the risk of cancer of the cervix physician advise the women to have a pap smear once in every two years. Pap smear is done by using the metal instrument speculum to open the vagina and examine the cervix. A cotton wool is used to rub off in the surface of the cervix to get the sample cells to be used in laboratory. The sample cells will be examine under the microscope to determine the presence of pre-cancers cells that may develop into cervix cancers.

Women who have cervix cancer may experience loss of appetite, fatigue pelvic and back pain. They also have a heavy bleeding during their monthly period.

The causes of cervix cancer may either from chlamydia infection, dietary factors, hormonal contraception, multiple pregnancies, uses the hormonal drugs diethylstilbestrol (DES). It also happen to a woman who have had many sexual partners, or whose partner with many sexual contacts. More cases of cervical cancer occur among women who use oral contraceptive than among those who rely on diaphragm.

Today Papanicolau test or pap smear for cervical cancer screening has been credited to increase the awareness of women about cervical cancer and it also reduce the incidence rate of this kind of cancer in some developed countries. Collopscope is also used to detect the cancer cells presents in the cervix it is the magnifying instrument to examine the cervix if it shows inflammatory changes or any abnormal cells.

Erectile Dysfunction Herbal Remedies – How To Cure ED Naturally

Erectile dysfunction (ED) represents inability to achieve or maintain erection with sufficient rigidity and duration to permit satisfactory sexual performance.

There are many causes, psychological, neurological, physical and other associated medical conditions such as diabetes mellitus, heart disease, hypertension and cigarette smoking which result in ED.

Currently, various treatment options are available for erectile dysfunction. They are PDE5 inhibitors, injection therapy, other oral prescription medicine, vacuum devices, surgical implants, herbal or over-the-counter medications.

The FDA does not approve over-the-counter medicines or herbal remedies for erectile dysfunction, as these are not under its jurisdiction. So, those interested in using herbal medications are advised to consult their physicians so as to determine the appropriate herb, dosage and side-effects.

Some of the herbal remedies used for correcting ED are:

L-arginine: It is an amino acid used by body to make nitric oxide which signals smooth muscle around the blood vessels leading to relaxation and this process dilates the blood vessels and helps in increase blood flow.

Relaxation of smooth muscle in the penis leads to enhanced blood flow and further leading to an erection. L-arginine can be found naturally in food such as meat, poultry, dairy and fish and is available as oral L-arginine supplement.

Propionyl-L-Carnitine: Propionyl-L-carnitine enhances and improves erectile function, orgasm, sexual intercourse satisfaction, and general sexual well-being.

Gingko: This herb is used by people who experience sexual dysfunction as a side effect caused by antidepressant drugs. This herb relaxes smooth muscle and enhances blood flow inside penis. It has 50% success rate as per one study.

Zinc: High level of mineral zinc deficiency which is associated with diabetes, long-term use of diuretics, digestive disorders, and certain liver and kidney diseases, sometimes leads to erectile dysfunction.

Ashwagandha: The herb ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) which is also called Indian Ginseng increases stamina, energy, and sexual function. Side-effects of ashwagandha include drowsiness.

Yohimbe: This is a bark of West African yohimbe tree which is a source of yohimbine. Yohimbine is a compound which stimulates blood flow to the penis thus increasing libido and decreasing the time between ejaculations.

Side effects generally include anxiety, dizziness, nausea, and drop in blood pressure, fatigue, abdominal pain, hallucinations, and paralysis. Due to its fatal qualities it is generally not recommended.

Tongkat ali: It works by increasing level of hormone testosterone. Testosterone is responsible for the growth and development of penis, testicles, prostate, scrotum and seminal vesicles. Normal testosterone levels help in maintaining energy level, fertility, as well as sexual desire.

Tribulus terrestris: It is herb which has been used in traditional medicines of China for centuries. Tribulus is often used for infertility, low libido and erectile dysfunction.

Gamma-Butyrolactone (GBL): GBL can be found in products which are marketed for improvement in sexual function. This substance can cause toxic and fatal side-effects which include seizures and coma.

Thus, with so many choices before a person who wants to improve erectile dysfunction with herbal remedies, it is imperative to choose the correct remedy after evaluating the risks factors and side effects. One must always consult physician and herbalist before undergoing such remedial measures.

Condom Use May Lead to Difficulties in Erection!

Condoms are one of the most successful aids for family planning and they also act as protection against STDs. Condom use is advertised even by the governments nowadays. In fact in certain countries condoms are distributed free of cost by the government in order to protect the population from the curse of the STDs which includes AIDS.

Condom use is a good way for family planning. However, condoms are not 100% contraceptive. Sometimes people miraculously get pregnant even after condom use. But condoms are the most user friendly form of contraceptives and also the most successful. However, they are not without side effects but I will talk about it a little later first let me discuss certain other aspects of condoms and condom use.

Condoms, as is obvious have a very big commercial market. So much so that today there is a neck to neck competition between the various brands of condoms. Today condoms come in various flavours also- strawberry, apple, buttery, dotted, stripped etc etc. But there are many couples who find condoms to be an obstacle to a satisfactory sex life. They feel sex is much more fun, exciting, and sexy without a condom. They prefer other contraceptive means to condoms or what many couples do is ejaculate outside. But these means apart from being doubtful also don”t serve to protect the people from the bane of the STDs. Inspite of all these risk factors condoms are a strict no-no for many couples. Among these class of condom boycotting people there are some who have multiple sex partners. Thus the chances of STDs are at their prime in case of these people.

Interestingly the people who do not use condoms in most of their sexual exploits find it difficult to maintain an erection when they do use a condom. This is the side effect of condom that I was referring to earlier on in the article. Difficulty in maintaining an erection is a probable side effect of condom use. But this side effect is more seen in the people who are not regular users of condoms as compared to the ones who are regular. This might be because of the fact that the first types of people have grown so used to having sex without condoms that they can”t get the kicks with a condom on. Though this difficulty of maintaining an erection is referred to as a condom side effect, yet it might have more to do with the psyche of the person than the condom. In spite of everything, I for one would always advice condom use, until and unless you are planning a family with your spouse.

As far as difficulties in erection are concerned, today there is an answer to that problem also. The ED drugs like cialis online are available everywhere and so today a person can easily buy cialis. In case you prefer to buy cialis online make sure that you get a prescription beforehand and the online pharmacy is selling genuine medicines.

Boosting Fertility: Protecting Yourself from Plastics

We drink from plastic bottles and use plastic food wraps all the time but a growing number of scientists are getting concerned about the safety of these products, along with tin cans and dental sealants.

This is because some substances in certain plastics used to make various products have been shown to have substances such as nonylphenol and octylphenol, biphenolic compounds and phthalates which can have a negative effect on reproductive hormones and fertility.

One such chemical is bisphenol-A, a synthetic oestrogen used in the manufacture of many food containers, cans and baby bottles and dental sealants.

To illustrate the power of this chemical, some male workers developed breasts after inhaling dust containing bisphenol-A and one study showed that women with a history of miscarriage can have as much as three times the chemical bisphenol-A in their blood compared to women who have never miscarried.

Other research has raised questions about the safety of cling film made of a type of plastic called polyvinyl chloride (PVC) which contains plasticisers. Some animal studies suggest that PVC may be an endocrine or hormone disruptor.

Other research on phthalates – chemicals which are used in commercial products as softeners of plastics, solvents in perfumes and additives to hair sprays, lubricants and insect repellents – has shown that they have the potential to be reproductive toxins.

Until we know more about the effects of common plastics on our reproductive health use the simple strategies below to protect yourself:

- Use plastic wraps and cookware made of polyethylene which doesn”t contain plasticisers. If the product doesn”t make this clear, don”t buy it.

- When you reheat or cook food don”t let plastic wrap touch it.

- Don”t wrap food in cling film; use paper instead. Immediately remove cling film wrap from food you buy and transfer them to a bag or container. Better yet ask the person on the deli to wrap your food in paper.

- Don”t store fatty food in plastic wrap. Xenoestrogens are lipophilic (fat loving) and will tend to leach into foods with a high fat content.

- If you buy hard cheese wrapped in plastic use a knife to shave off the surface layer

- Avoid food that needs to be microwaved in a plastic container. Better still avoid microwaving food altogether.

- Use glass bottles. Cans and plastic bottles of fizzy drink contain six times the amount of aluminium compared to the same beverages in glass bottles. There is always a small amount of residue that dissolves into drinks from the lining of a can or from a plastic bottle. Glass bottles are much better than plastic.

- Refill your own non-plastic water bottle instead of using toxic plastic water bottles. While it”s good for your health to carry your own water and drink it throughout the day, if it”s in a clear polycarbonate plastic bottle, it can be leaching a toxic substance into your water-even if the bottle is sitting on table at room temperature.
