Viagra & Heart attack - True story

Sexual problems after a heart attack are common, occurring in one-half to three-quarters of patients.

Both men and women may have less sex or feel less satisfied with sexual activity after heart attack.

A variety of factors may contribute, including side effects of drugs (such as beta blockers), depression, and fears about triggering a new heart attack or dying.

Since sexual activity is a type of physical activity, exercise testing can be used to determine if a person is at any risk of heart problems related to sex.

If a man develops chest pain after taking Viagra, Cialis or Levitra, he should not take nitrates for 24 hours (or longer in some cases).

Instead, the man should rest and wait 10 minutes to see if the pain resolves.
If the pain does not resolve or if the chest pain is severe, he should immediately call for emergency medical services

Garlic for cholesterol reduction

According to some studies, garlic might decrease blood levels of total cholesterol by a few percentage points.

Other studies, however, suggest that it might not be as beneficial as once thought. It might also have significant side effects and/or interactions with certain medicines.

Garlic might prolong bleeding and blood clotting time, so garlic and garlic supplements should not be consumed prior to surgery and should not be taken with blood-thinning medicines such as warfarin.

What Is Pilates?

Pilates is a body conditioning routine that seeks to build flexibility, strength, endurance, and coordination without adding muscle bulk.

In addition, pilates increases circulation and helps to sculpt the body and strengthen the body's "core" or "powerhouse" (torso).

People who do pilates regularly feel they have better posture, are less prone to injury, and experience better overall health.

There are two ways to exercise in pilates.

Today, most people focus on the mat exercises, which require only a floor mat and training. These exercises are designed so that your body uses its own weight as resistance.

The other method of pilates uses a variety of machines to tone and strengthen the body, again using the principle of resistance.

Kids’ Snack - Tips

Kids are always looking for snacks.

Instead of sugary sweets or chips, make it easier for them to have a healthy snack time.

The keys are to make healthful snacks in your house visible, convenient and effortless.

What are flavonoids ??

Flavonoids are water-soluble plant pigments that have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that can counteract damage to tissues.

Students from UCLA made the conclusion based on a study of the dietary habits of smokers with and without lung cancer.

The flavonoids that appeared to be most effective were catechin (found in strawberries and green and black teas), kaempferol (Brussels sprouts and apples) and quercetin, (beans, onions and apples).

Digestive and Liver Disorders in Children

Digestive disorders affecting infants and children range from simple problems that most children experience from time to time, such as vomiting or diarrhea, to more serious (and possibly life-threatening) birth defects such as tracheoesophageal fistula, or illnesses such as appendicitis.

Digestive and liver disorders can have significant effects on the health of a child.

A healthy digestive system processes the foods and liquids that we eat, replenishing vitamins, minerals, proteins, carbohydrates and fats that are vital for the body to function properly.

Occasional vomiting or diarrhea may lead to dehydration, however, long-term problems with the digestive system and/or liver can deplete these important nutrients, causing malnutrition that affects a child's physical and mental growth and development.

Some digestive disorders, such as vomiting or diarrhea, may be effectively treated by your child's physician. Other times, your child's physician may refer you to a physician who specializes in children's digestive and liver disorders. This specialist is known as a Pediatric Gastroenterologist.

This web provides an overview of the digestive system and liver, how they work, and problems that can occur in these body systems.
