Erectile Dysfunction: Reasons & Solutions

Herbal impotence treatments are growing in popularity. Slowly but surely, more men are willing to seek treatment for this condition that significantly impacts one of life’s most precious pastimes. If you have signs of impotence, read on to find out how an herbal remedies can alleviate this problem.

The most notable symptom of impotence is erectile dysfunction. In simple terms, this means a man is either not able to achieve an erection at all, or he has difficulty maintaining an erection long enough to penetrate and/or fulfill his sexual partner.

Causes of Erectile Dysfunction:

• Inadequate blood flow to the penis due to poor circulation or narrowed arteries is one cause of erectile dysfunction.
• A change in hormone levels, particularly low testosterone also plays a role.
• Problems within a person’s nervous system can also impact a man’s erection. The spinal cord acts as the main line of communication between the brain and the male genitals so any disruption to the nervous system will negatively affect this communication

An herbal impotence treatment that is made with the right combination of ingredients will target each of these areas.

* Siberian (Oriental) Ginseng, also known as eleuthero coccus semiosis has been heralded in eastern civilizations for decades as the herb that will increase a man’s vitality. Specifically this herb helps improve blood flow to the penis (and throughout the body). With more blood where it is needed, Siberian Ginseng greatly improves stamina.

* Smilax Ornate restores potency levels by assisting in the production of the male hormone testosterone. The steroidal saparins in this ingredient are believed to be capable of copying the functionality of some hormones found in humans.

* Glycyrrhiza Glabrate also helps promote the production of another important hormone, hydrocortisone by stimulating the adrenal cortex.

* Turn aria Aphrodisiacs stimulates the nervous system which in turn increases a man’s sex drive and overall energy level.

* Kola Vera is another performance stimulant.

Try these Natural Home Remedies for UTI

• Stay Hydrated. Drinking plenty of water is good for your body and it can also dilute and help flush out the bacteria that is causing the UTI. This is especially helpful as a preventative measure.

• Apply Heat. A UTI can be very painful. Heat applied to the abdomen, right over the bladder, can help soothe the aches and pains. Try this when the discomfort gets difficult to handle.

• Turn To Cranberry Juice. This tried-and-true method of getting rid of UTIs has been around for decades. Though studies are not conclusive, many people swear that their UTIs are lessened or eliminated by regular helpings of cranberry juice. But a word of caution: Don’t try this if you take the blood thinner warfarin, as bleeding could result.

• Avoid Irritant Foods. Processed foods that can make a UTI worse include cheese, dairy products, chocolate and spicy foods. Try to avoid all processed foods if you can, especially processed flours and sugars, and indulge in veggies and fruits instead.

• Avoid Artificial Sweetener. Artificial sweeteners such as aspartame can irritate the bladder and make a UTI worse. Avoiding these for a few weeks while you wait for the UTI to clear is a good idea.

• Try Baking Soda. A touch of baking soda in your glass of water – about one teaspoon – can help flush out your system, thus getting the bacteria out of your body faster.

• Eat Plenty of Blueberries. The antioxidant properties of blueberries can help with a host of ailments, including UTIs. They are also from the same plant family as cranberries, so the juice can help clear things up too.

• Indulge In Pineapples. The enzyme Bromelain is found in pineapples, and studies have shown that it can help clear up a UTI, especially when used in conjunction with antibiotics. So eat up!

• Try Vitamin C. This vitamin helps acidify the urine, which prevents bacteria from taking hold. Some doctors prescribe at least 5,000 mg of this per day – check with your doctor to make sure this is okay for you before you start taking such high doses.

• Go To the Bathroom. This sounds very simple, but it’s true – going when you feel the urge means you can fight off UTIs before they have a chance to start. So don’t hold your urine! Get to the bathroom as soon as you can when you feel the urge to go.

• Wear Cotton Clothing. Comfortable cotton clothing can help your skin breathe, and that can stop bacteria. Men should choose boxer shorts, and women should choose underwear with a cotton lining. If you already have a UTI, cotton makes a much more comfortable undergarment.

• Ditch Those Nasty Drinks. Drinks that include caffeine, such as sodas or coffee, or those that contain citrus juices might make a UTI worse. The same goes for alcohol. In addition, drinks like this dehydrate you, and that can make a UTI linger.

• Take OTC Pain Killers. Don’t suffer through the pain if you don’t have to! Over the counter pain relievers can work wonders for the pain of a UTI. But remember that these medications only mask the pain, so you still need to try out other home remedies at the same time.
• Clean Up Before And After Sexy Time. When you and your partner make love, be sure to urinate immediately afterward to help remove any bacteria that might have found its way to your urethra. Clean the area before you make love as well, to cut down on passing UTI bacteria around. Finally, if you use a diaphragm, consider using condoms instead – diaphragms might make UTIs worse.

 

How to Teach a Dyslexic Child

 

Dyslexia is a learning disability that causes an individual to struggle with reading and writing. It can also affect other areas of a person's life: focus, memory skills, and organization. When you understand how to teach a dyslexic child, you can help build their self-awareness as well as their cognitive skills by using teaching methods with a multi-sensory approach. This will help them not only in the classroom, but for the rest of their lives.

1.Utilize a multi-sensory approach to teaching. Multi-sensory teaching involves many senses at the same time: touch, sight, movement, and sound. Though this is extremely helpful for a dyslexic child, all students can benefit from this.

·         Write note cards. This provides something tangible for students to look at while also giving them something to hold. Having them read the note card out loud also engages their motor and auditory skills.

·         Make sand trays. Sand trays are simply tray-like containers that contain sand (or beans or shaving cream). Students can use these to spell words or draw pictures in the sand. This engages their sense of touch.

·         Incorporate fun activities into their learning time. Games and other creative activities get the dyslexic child more involved in the learning process. This makes learning more fun and rewarding, as it gives them a sense of accomplishment.

·         Use color intentionally. Visual cues help individuals with dyslexia to understand written material. Use color on the blackboard or marker board. Write decimals in math problems in a different color. Grade in a color other than red, as red carries a universally negative connotation.

2.Use time wisely. Dyslexic children often struggle with focusing. Other things may distract them, or they may have a hard time listening to a long lecture or watching a lengthy video. Dyslexic children may also struggle with short-term memory, making it difficult for them to take notes or understand simple instructions.

·         Take your time. Do not rush through a class lecture. Give students time to copy anything written on the board. Make sure dyslexic students understand you before moving on to another section.

·         Repeat yourself often. Since dyslexic children may struggle with short-term memory, it is challenging for them to remember what you say. Repeat instructions, key words, and concepts so students are more likely to remember what you say, at least long enough to write it down.

·         Incorporate short breaks regularly. A dyslexic child often struggles to sit for long periods of time. Take short breaks throughout the day to divide long lectures. You can also move from activity to activity. For example, lecture, game, back to lecture, followed by a learning activity.

·         Use appropriate time limits. It takes dyslexic children longer to complete assignments other students may have no problem completing. Allow dyslexic students more time to take exams and quizzes and to complete homework so they do not feel rushed.

3.Provide handouts. Again, since dyslexic children struggle with short-term memory, providing them with some sort of outline as you are lecturing is helpful, especially following long lectures. Write homework instructions directly on the assignment so they know what is expected. Use visual cues, such as asterisks and bullets, to highlight important directives or information. It is also beneficial to let them

4.Model organizational structures. Help individuals with dyslexia to develop organizational skills that will benefit them for the rest of their lives. Model these in your classroom, but also encourage them to apply them at home.

·         Use folders to separate different classes or class topics. This makes homework assignments and handouts easier to find. Color-code these if possible.

·         Stick to a daily routine. Schedules help dyslexic children know what to expect and what is coming up next. If possible, post your routine, using both words and images, on a classroom wall for students to refer to.

·         Encourage dyslexic children to use an assignment book or calendar. Have them write daily assignments in their assignment book. Check these before they leave school to ensure they understand the directions

5.Utilize other resources. Do not feel like you are the only teacher for a dyslexic student. There are several resources available to help dyslexic children learn.

·         Encourage peer tutoring. Peer resources and social support are probably one of the strongest resources you can offer. Students can read aloud to each other, review notes, or conduct lab experiments together.

·         Bring a specialist into the classroom. This helps prevent the dyslexic child from feeling different and benefits the other students as well.

·         Utilize appropriate technology. Games, word processors, voice activated software, and digital voice recording can all be very useful for a child with dyslexia.
