MODERATION in EVERYTHING is GOOD!

Moderation.....NOT frequent, NOT every freakin' day! Occasionally...IS GOOD.....If you are dying for that order of trans fat-laiden french fries, or that burger (with grease dripping from the fatty meat, white flour bun and mayonaise!) , EAT IT!!!

Moderation not only in food, but in medications, etc. For example, regardless of what Dr. Mercola or anyone else believes or preaches, I see nothing wrong with statin-therapy for controlling cholesterol. MODERATION dear folks. I am not talking about taking 20 mg per day of Crestor, and I would personally would try something a little more conservative than Lipitor....but I do believe in the A.M.A. (Amer. Medical Assoc.) because it works.....If you have high cholesterol/triglycerides or low HDL try Niacin therapy and purchase some Plant/Phyto-sterols first...but if you nor your physician are happy with the results of supplement therapy, then statins are the next course of action and they will work. They save lifes, they halt plaque formation in its tracks and actually reduce plaque in certain cases....
Do you know what high cholesterol leads to? E.D....friends....that's right, erectile disfunction....impotence.....the inability to have sexual intercourse, who wants that!
I highly recommend the following book: What you must know about STAIN DRUGS, by Dr. Jay S. Cohen, MD...
He recommends the more conservative (as in weaker versions) of statins, such as Mevacor and Pravachol and using lower doses in the beginning, increasing if necessary.....Disclosure: I take 10 mg of Pravachol per day myself.....not because I have high cholesterol, but as a way to prevent heart disease, as I am diabetic.....I also consume a glass of red wine everynight, 7 days per week!
Moderation, Baby!

Dr Mercola is full of S _ _ T!!!

Dr Mercola of http://www.mercola.com/ is an alarmist with a capital "A." He is an extremist when it comes to how you should eat and bath and etc, etc. He likes to bring on fear and worry and wants us to shun whole grains and Soy and to avoid use cell phones for fear of brain cancer....
His recent writings are concerning Lasic surgery and the long term dangers involved. Look it, I had the procedure performed two years ago and other than occasional dry eyes I am fine and see 20/20, Baby! Whatever danger lurks 15 years from now, I am sure they will have a procedure available to "correct" the damage done. Quite frankly I am a type 1 diabetic and my eyes will always be a concern, as well as my feet, my penis, etc. Monitoring and managing my blood sugar levels are paramount and I am doing a good job of that.
The point is, avoid the alarmists and nay-sayers out there. They will have you believe male hormone replacement therapy is harmful and will cause all sorts of cancers (testicles, prostate, etc.) when the facts are these: Hormone replacement therapy (testosterone injections or patch/gels) is the fountain of youth for older men. It dramatically increases sense of well-being, libido, muscle size, it decreases fat and is generally physically and emotionally beneficial to men. Dr. Mercola is definitely an alarmist....A big wimp....a "chicken little."
Hey, this is my blog and I can say whatever I want.....And I am usually politically INcorrect....

Lack Of Sex In My Marriage

I am at a loss to know what we can do about his sexual performance problem. When we do finally make love he finishes before I can be satisfied.

Does your husband have a desire to improve the quantity of your sex life? If not then they may not be a lot that you can do. Does he have a lot of stress in his life, this can affect really affect the libido. I would encourage him to have his tetesterone hormonal level evaluated just in case that is the problem. He may also have....
