Health Tips - Normal Bedtime For Men

Sleep in teenagers - young adults (16-30 yr.) Has a different pattern than any other age. This is caused by hormonal changes that occur at the end of puberty. At this time they experienced a shift in circadian rhythm, so hours of sleep was shifted.

In general, the need to increase to 8.5 to 9.25 hours of sleep each day. But his sleep time changed, new drowsiness attacked around midnight, where someone else was asleep. When other people getting sleepy at 21:00 or 22:00, a young man eager to work exactly new, either studying or completing a job.

While in the morning had to get up early to prepare for school, college or work. In general, young people actually experience lack of sleep, so many of those who fall asleep in class or nodding off in office. Not to mention because social demands are tempting to "play" to dissolve, even in the morning.

Not surprisingly, if at the end of the week we met many young people that sleep up to much during the day. Sleep debt is allowed to accumulate throughout the week paid in a single day.

What makes a woman's body attractive?

 
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. At least, that's what we like to think, given that our society is made up of people of all shapes, colours and sizes. After all, what's attractive to one person doesn't necessarily appeal to the next.

When it comes to the female form, however, scientists believe they've discovered exactly what most people - men and women - like. The results, however, may not be quite what you'd think.

Researchers, whose study has just been published in the Journal of Evolutionary Biology, scanned the bodies of 96 women aged between 20 and 49. So that the results would be free from racial or cultural bias, the scans were shown both to Chinese and Australian volunteers, each of whom had to rate each body scan's attractiveness on a scale of one to seven.

The results were pretty consistent between all the volunteers, whether they were male, female, Chinese or Australian.

Unsurprisingly, scans of the younger, taller and lighter women were rated as the most attractive. Women with narrow waists scored more highly too. But if you thought long legs or pert boobs would be right up there on the list of top attractions, you'd be wrong. Instead long arms - particularly on taller women - were given the thumbs up.

It's hardly good news for shorties with stubby arms who are the wrong side of 25. But can you ever define attractiveness on body parts alone? Isn't that oversimplifying matters in the extreme?

Tell us what you find attractive. 

Is low libido caused by the way women's brains work?

Brain causes low libidoExperts have struggled for years to explain why some women have a low sex drive (libido). And now Detroit-based researchers think they've cracked it. Their brains simply behave differently than other women's, claim the experts.

A recent study suggested low sex drive was simply a marketing ploy to sell more drugs. But the research team from Detroit's Wayne State University claims there is such a thing as hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD) - in other words, low sex drive - after all. And they have the brain scans to prove it.

The scientists did tests on 26 women, 19 of whom had been previously diagnosed with HSDD. By showing them a series of videos, some of which contained erotic scenes, they were able to measure the women's brain activity using MRI scans.

The women who had been diagnosed with HSDD showed different brain patterns than those who had so-called normal sex drives. For instance, there are certain areas of the brain that become active when you process information about sex. In the women with HSDD, these areas remained inactive while other areas - which aren't normally associated with sexual function - were activated.

The scientists don't yet know exactly what all this means, but what they do know is that when it comes to sex, women's brains don't all work in the say way. And that's particularly relevant for those who have a low libido.

If you're experiencing a lull in your appetite for sex, there are natural remedies that may help. Talking to a counsellor who specialises in relationships could work too.

Back pain puts one in ten women off sex

Yoga stretches are good for your backForget headaches, back pain has taken over as a bigger passion killer. According to a survey of 8,000 Brits, one in ten women's sex life suffers because of it, with women more likely than men to abstain from sex because of a dodgy back.

The survey, carried out by back support manufacturer Dynaspine, found that 55% of people experienced back pain at least once a month. But back pain isn't the number one reason why we're not having sex, with one in three of us regularly making excuses to our other halves because we're simply too tired.

But sex isn't the only thing that's affected when we get back pain. According to the survey, it makes one in ten of us sleep on the floor, with 16% spending the day in bed because of back pain and 15% staying as still as possible for as long as it takes for the pain to go away.

Just over a quarter of us stop exercising when we get a bad back too, though experts these days reckon keeping moving is the best way to get over a bad back, as inactivity only makes things worse.

So next time you suffer form backache, stay as active as possible. And when your back isn't playing up, try to do some exercises that help strengthen the muscles in your back, which will help prevent the pain coming back (for advice on specific exercises, consult a physiotherapist). Gentle stretching exercises - such as yoga or Pilates - will also help keep your back flexible.

What excuse do you make for not having sex?

One in four rarely uses contraception with a new partner

One in four people forget about contraceptionThat first flush of romance can make even the most level-headed among us lose our heads when things get steamy.

At least that's the finding of a survey by the Co-operative Pharmacy, which quizzed 3,000 people about their sexual habits. The survey discovered almost a quarter of people never or only sometimes use contraception when they sleep with a new partner.

It seems all that excitement makes people forget about protecting themselves against sexually-transmitted infections (STIs) and unwanted pregnancies, as the main reason cited for not using contraception was getting carried away in the moment. And a surprisingly frank one in 10 even admitted they just couldn't be bothered about using contraception.

It looks like relationships are going out of fashion for some people too, with 11% of those questioned claiming the majority of their sexual encounters were one-night stands. A further 13% admitted they mostly had quick flings, while 2% said most of the people they slept with were strangers.

And if you thought that young people were leading the way in terms of promiscuity, think again. It's the over-50s who are engaging in the more risky side of relationships, the survey suggests, with one in three claiming to have slept around and had unprotected sex with strangers.

Of the 18-21-year-olds surveyed, 19% said they'd waited until they were 16 to have sex (though that implies an awful lot don't).

Do you think getting carried away in the moment is a poor excuse for not being responsible about sex?

Beetroot juice helps you get more out of your workout

Beetroot juice helps you get more out of your workout 
It's not the first time this year beetroot juice has been in the news, with an earlier study suggesting it helps athletes exercise for longer. But now the same researchers who brought us the original news about the distinctly unglamorous vegetable claim their latest study shows beetroot could help those of us who are less athletic get more out of our workouts too.


 Scientists from the University of Exeter's Sport and Health Sciences department have discovered that beetroot juice reduces the amount of oxygen you need to perform simple, low-intensity exercise, such as walking.

Writing in the Journal of Applied Physiology, the researchers claim test results show how drinking beetroot juice allowed volunteers to use less oxygen while walking. And what that means, they claim, is that drinking beetroot juice reduces the effort needed to exercise (walking, in this instance) by 12%.

So how does it work? According to the experts, beetroot juice widens your blood vessels and reduces blood pressure, which allows more blood flow. It also affects muscle tissue, they claim, by reducing the amount of oxygen needed by muscles during exercise. So basically you can do more exercise with less effort.

And while that may not be critical while you're young and perfectly capable of working out without any assistance, it could be a great help to people who, for instance, have heart or lung conditions.

The ingredient in beetroot that's thought to have the positive effect on physical performance is a substance called nitrate, the experts add.

Do you have any tips on how to get more out of your workout?

Exercise outdoors to burn more calories

NExercising outdoors gives you a mood boostobody could blame you for not feeling like getting out of the house and trudging off to the gym in the middle of winter. After all, it's got to be the most difficult time of year to motivate yourself. This year, however, The National Trust, has launched a month-long campaign to get the nation fit after the excesses of Christmas called The Great Outdoor Challenge.

One of the claims of the challenge is that exercising outdoors can help you burn up to a fifth more calories. Just five minutes worth of outdoor exercise every day can immediately boost your mood and self-esteem too. So you won't just shift those post-Christmas pounds but you'll beat the January blues too.

The 31-day plan has been devised by outdoor exercise specialists Eco Fitness, and is designed to help you kick start 2011 feeling energised and invigorated, rather than feeling bloated and with a massive hangover.

Outdoor workouts help you burn up to 20% more calories because your body has to work harder, thanks to all the natural, uneven surfaces you'll encounter (which also helps boost your balance and core strength). Being outdoors might also increase your levels of vitamin D - well, if it's a sunny day you may absorb some sunlight in your skin. And that not only helps improve your mood but keeps your bones strong too.

The plan can be followed in any outdoor space (even your back garden if you're lucky enough to have one big enough) and includes instructions on warming up and cooling down, along with a walking, jogging or running challenge for every day from January 1-31st.

Stay single if you want to get in shape

Single women stay fitter for longerWhen it comes to health, most studies suggest that being married is a good thing - particularly if your marriage is a happy one. But the latest report from experts from the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm suggests being married isn't so good for your physical fitness.

Having followed almost 9,000 adults over three years, the researchers discovered the couples who married during that time experienced a drop in their fitness levels. On the other hand, men who divorced during the same period shaped up, while women who remained single also saw an increase in their fitness.

It sounds pretty logical when you think about it. At least it does if you buy into the idea that once you get married, you let yourself go a bit. Not being on the dating scene any longer could, after all, make most people less motivated to stay in shape.

There again the difference in fitness levels between married couples and single people wasn't huge - but it's something that anyone getting married should bear in mind, say the researchers, whose report has just been published in the American Journal of Epidemiology. In other words, tying the knot isn't an excuse to ditch your gym membership.

Another piece of marital advice comes from US psychologists writing in the Journal of Family Psychology. If you don't have sex until your wedding night, you could end up happier and your relationship could be more stable - plus even your sex life could be better, they say.

That's a pretty amazing statement, since fewer people are bothering to even get married these days. What do you think?

The Best Moisturizer In Your Life

As an ex-smoker I must admit that there is nothing quite as bothersome as someone trying to convince you to quit. And even worse than that is the ex-smoker trying to do so, as if they are some reformed guru on the subject. Most smokers are completely aware of dangers of their behavior, and smoke regardless. An increase in education about the perils of smoking is not going to reduce the numbers of smokers, it just isn’t. Here is this author’s story of how after decades of smoking, I simply just stopped.

For me, smoking was always something that I was doing today. I did not buy cartons of cigarettes as there was a decent chance that this would be my last pack. Yeah right!! I began back in college casually smoking while having a few drinks or relaxing with friends. My cigarette smoking had steadily grown until I realized that I had reached around 1.5 – 2 packs of cigarettes per day. I am not sure why it came as a surprise, but it did. I recall thinking about the cost and how much money I was spending per year and was disappointed, but not enough to change. Cigarettes were my friends. I would smoke when I was alone, or stressed, or simply to pass the time. A relaxing Sunday afternoon was just not relaxing without my smokes. Little by little smoking had penetrated my life until it was a large part of the daily picture.

The first time that I realized it was time to quit was during work one day. Being in a competitive, high stress office had certainly contributed to my smoking in my earlier years. I always made time to go downstairs to have a cigarette (because they don’t let us smoke inside anymore) and chat with my friends / co workers. Well, on this particular day I realized that no one in the office smoked any more. We had gone through some staffing changes, but still this seemed odd. So as I stood downstairs, alone, smoking it occurred to me that I was the only person out there my age. There were some younger people smoking, but mostly just hanging out. And there were some really old people (at least they looked old) smoking heavily. It was in that instant I realized that most people my age had stopped smoking. Here I was standing between the age I was when I began smoking and the picture of what I will be if I do not stop smoking. For whatever reason the image stuck with me.

I did not alter my behavior at that time, however, I did periodically tell the story of that day to others when I stood around smoking with them. They all seemed to agree, or at least laugh at the notion. Like most smokers, I had occasionally tried to quit smoking at the request of loved ones, but never because I actually wanted to stop. I realized that I was at a crucial point, either I had to quit or I had to accept that after 15 years, I was a smoker.

Then one day it just happened. I was getting dressed for work and I looked in the mirror. The face that was looking back at me was of little resemblance. I guess I had still been imagining myself as the athletic young person I was years before, but the person looking back at me was not. This stranger in my mirror looked older and more tired than I felt, and truthfully than I was. I noticed the damage I was doing, not specifically, but that I looked older, more wrinkled. Not being of the age where wrinkles were acceptable (if they ever are) I looked as though I was not aging well. It alarmed me, I was obviously aware of the dangers of smoking, but here they were right on my face. I looked a good 10 years older than I was….very difficult for a man of my vanity to deal with. I knew that I needed to quit.

For a few months I walked around with this image in my head. I could not escape it. Every smoker I saw I noticed how bad they looked. Their skin looked terrible, wrinkles around eyes, mouth and neck. I was still smoking but the dangers seemed personified around me, in the mirror on the faces of other smokers. For me this illustrated that the invincibility of my youth had come to an end. I did not want to end up looking terribly shriveled.

And then it happened. I woke up and simply chose to not get a pack of cigarettes. No plan, no big effort, in fact I did not even know I was quitting when I smoked my last cigarette. All the anticipation of prior attempts I avoided this time. I simply stopped smoking at that moment. I did my best to stay busy that day and felt better about my ability to handle quitting. Once the day had come and gone (with only a few minor cravings) I knew I was ready to quit. And I have not looked back since.

I realized that to quit we simply need to want to. We can not be forced into it, or nagged into it by loved ones. We have to want to get healthier. For me not looking wrinkled and older than I had to, created some acknowledgement of the damage of my behavior. I would rather look and naturally be healthier than I would be a smoker, and once I realized it, not just said it….I quit.

I am happy to say that my skin and health has never been better. This story is actually what led to my interest and career in the best moisturizer creams. I am not the passionate ex-smoker, nor do I honestly care if you smoke or not. But if you want to quit, try not making such a big deal about it, don’t tell others, just quit. Despite what marketers tell you, you can do it on your own, but you have to want to.

Fast Food

Regardless of whether the tacos, hamburgers or fried chicken, we’ll keep it just the same. Fast food has become a way of life for many people. They eat three times a day. They would prefer a Big Mac than steak. But eating fast food chain is not bad for your health.

I am trying to say that fast food fare is the healthiest food on the planet, but it can be very healthy food, if the right choices.

If you have a hamburger, without cheese and Mayo. This allows you to the amount of fat in your diet. If you think that the sandwich is too dry, without Mayo, use mustard or ketchup instead.

In processed cheese, which is much fast food franchisee application is loaded with oil and other junk. You might think that cheese made from milk, but not all. Some of this is made from cooking oil and is less healthy than the type of milk.

Avoid bacon something to do. You can save significant amounts of calories in this way.

It is also a good idea to stay away from items that are fried. This includes french fries, fried fish and chicken. Frying oil they use and healthiest can create a ton of fat and calories to your worthless food.

Most fast food franchising now offer salads. Consider replacing the side salad for fries. French fries are fine, if you eat on an occasional basis, but if you have a habit of eating regularly, you should consider replacing salad.

Subway promotes their food as healthier than the typical fast food fare. And if you look at the menu, you can find some healthy alternatives. Fat and calories for each item is indicated in its offer. This is nice if you’re watching what you eat.

If you’re looking for a reasonable and healthy diet plan, we recommend the South Beach diet. He has the American Heart Association at a reasonable, healthy diet plan.

As with everything with your health, you should consult a doctor before taking any form of weight loss regimens.

8th Stay hydrated. A major problem of overweight Americans is that there is a high quality, which we mistake thirst for hunger. If you feel hungry, but very recently eaten, drink a full glass of water first and see how you feel.

9th out of the frame for easy shortcuts. There is no magic pill, and there is no magic diet, where you can eat junk waste. We are all wasting money on tricks like this, because we so desperately want to believe that, but I can assure you, do not.

10th Accept the previous nine tips as part of your everyday life. Loss is a change of lifestyle, not a temporary change. But this does not mean that you’ll have to say goodbye to all the food you want! Heck, I was eating jelly beans, as I wrote. I don ‘t care that the hypocrite?

Foam

Foams are based on the white of the egg with non-fat cheese, gelatin, and also fresh or frozen fruit, juice, vanilla, chocolate, coffee or tea.

Puddings

Try to prepare low-fat puddings, mils, eggs and Natural Flavorings, vanilla, coffee, chocolate, caramel, strawberry or lemon. You can take the place of sugar or fructose sweetens a man whose sweet savory back to the high temperatures.

Cakes

You can look forward to a savory pies, if you are with margarine butter, flour with whole flour and white sugar with fructose.

Meringues

Meringues contain egg white with a complete lack of fat. Sugar content is the only threat to your character, but may be replaced by fructose or sweetens.

Ice cream

Water, fruit, fructose, and is ready: delicious dessert with a cup with a capacity of up to fifty calories, and depending on the make.

Meal and rice cookies

When you feel that urge to eat cookies, choose those made from whole grains, low milk and fructose.

Steamed and frozen fruits are also a good option for a healthy dessert.

Cholesterol High Foods and Heart Disease

Cholesterol, without too much, it’s actually produced in the body, especially in the liver and is essential for the proper functioning body. In fact, approximately 80% of the body with the remaining 20% comes from dietary sources. Or at least it used to. With more of our “fast food” dietary cholesterol lifestyle has become a major health problem.

Cholesterol in our body should be able to function properly. It is mainly used for the cell membrane and allows them to a stable and sustainable. This is particularly important in the development of nerve tissue, the cells of the brains and spinal cord. It is also used in the bile, which is an important part of the digestive process, the absorption of fat soluble vitamins such as A, D, E and K. And some hormones, can not live without.

Unfortunately, our modern diet is a lot to us a good thing. While high cholesterol food such as meat, eggs, fat and whole milk products should be eaten in moderation, the preponderance of foods rich in saturated fats and Trans Fats that are greater culprits. Fried foods, Snack Foods, processed foods in a box, and almost anything with partially hydrogenated vegetable oils, all fall into this category.

In fact, scientific studies have shown that foods with a high fat content of these species, a greater effect on cholesterol in the blood and eat only foods with high cholesterol. This does not mean that eating a diet high in cholesterol foods is a good idea, but it is much more important to avoid saturated fat and Trans Fats that are common in our diet these days.

Supplement

If you trust your diet to keep all your nutritional needs, you can come up short. Food has so far not have the same value as it 50 years ago. When the farmers restore nutrients in the soil by mulching with natural fertilizers, and by rotating crops. Today, there is extensive use of chemicals, which finally led to depletion of soil from some of the essential components required for healthy eating. The end result is the supply of fine products, looks great, but not in the vicinity of vitamins and minerals they need, and had 50 years ago.

Today food loses also value in the process, it is subject. Canning, freezing, and even cooking fresh food costs in nutritional value. The very popular convenience “quick fix to” or “ready to eat” removes all the more necessary elements. (To say nothing of the chemical food preservatives, stabilizers, flavor-profile, artificial colors and other things you can take!)

FDA food pyramid recommends the following:

Fats, oils, sweets – use sparingly Milk, yogurt, cheese – 2-3 servings per day of meat, poultry, fish, dry beans, eggs, nuts – 2-3 servings per day Vegetable Group – 3-5 servings per day Fruit Group – 2-4 servings per day

Not looking for incredibly tough to do. If you focused, and plan your meals, and are organized enough to full fill all the requirements. So you have to make sure everyone in your household uses all carefully planned and prepared meals. (Does everyone in your house like spinach? “I’m the only one here!)

Most people today are too busy to plan and deliver a balanced, adequate meals per day. I can not imagine that somewhere long enough to eat 5 servings of vegetables in a period of 24 hours, not to notice that much, that my daughter will eat.

But even if you’re resourceful enough to accomplish this task, which is based on information available at the beginning of this report, you will probably still get short.

Data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture reflects the fact that as many as 75 servings of spinach (my favorite!) Is grown today for the same amount of iron in a serving of spinach grown in 1948.

I’m fond of spinach, but not so much!

Also consider Recommeded daily allowance (RDA) any direct all of you get enough nutrients to prevent the development of a nutritional deficiency diseases such as rickets. This is not the same as you to take the lead as much as you need to stay in optimal health.

In addition, one size does not fit all. Many health conditions, age, gender and other variables can determine what your nutritional needs. They can change on a daily basis. If a nursing mother the same requirements as in a 80-year-old man? Probably not.

Dietary supplements are most definietly a bit of insurance to protect, maintain and improve your optimum level of health care. But all supplements are not equal. It will make you a little bit to go to the local discount store and buy the weekly special they are to get rid of 2-year-old equipment that is not easy by the body, even when it was fresh. You want food that is high quality and easily absorbed and used by your body.You want to eat that has been studied, tested and proven effective.

10 Reasons Why you should NOT "go" on a Diet

The only thing growing faster than the $65 billion diet industry is the American waistline. If one of your New Years resolutions was to Go on a Diet, the only place I guarantee you will go….is up in weight.

It’s a Fact – Diets will only make you fatter.

When it comes to the latest in Diet fads, we are quite gullible and easily tempted by a Diet’s empty promised. Reason being….the diet industry KNOWS we are in search of the “quick fix” and will only play with our emotions – our desperation for the quickest way to relieve looking and feeling fat.

Diets are nothing more than Temporary Solutions with many lingering, negative side effects.

Here are the Top 10 Reasons Why you should NOT “go” on a Diet

1. Diets do NOT work.

Diets have a 99% Failure Rate. Have you noticed a pattern yet? Lose weight….quickly regain it? Over time, studies show if you diet you are more likely to be overweight than people who eat normally and make small gradual changes to their lifestyle. No, the Law of Averages does not apply to this faulty system.

2. Dieting can be Dangerous.

Any time you severely restrict the amount or types of foods you eat you put your health and life at risk. Dieting has been related to injuries and sudden deaths from electrolyte imbalance, malnutrition, and heart arrhythmia’s. Weight cycling, or yo-yo-ing weight, is associated with higher death rates – especially if some type of pills are being used. At no point should you ever place weight loss above your health.

3. Dieting Destroys your Metabolism.

Diets will cause your weight to quickly cycle up and down. Sure, you may lose weight quickly because you are simply not eating enough. In the initial stages, the first seven to nine pounds lost are water, presenting a real danger of dehydration and mineral deficiencies. Even more terrifying ins the break down of lean muscle due to inefficient nutrients and calories. If you are losing more than 3-4 pounds a week, you can be sure this is what is happening – very little fat is lost this state.

Now, any muscle loss will cause your metabolism slow to a crawl. The cumulative effect takes place for you cannot survive very long on very low calories (1200 or less) and you will eventually eat more – on top of a slower metabolism. All those excess calories will be stored as fat – causing rapid weight gain.

4. Dieting is Exhausting.

Diets are just reduced calorie Fads disguised by a clever gimmick. “Lose weight while you sleep” “Eat all you want and still lose weight” Not eating enough or cutting out certain food groups means your body may not be getting the energy it needs, or may lack certain nutrients. You will feel exhausted, light headed and experience some not-so-fun mood swings.

5. Dieting is Disruptive.

Dieting negatively affects your normal eating patterns. Diets can lead to binge eating, overeating and chaotic eating. When you diet, it is common to override your internal signals telling you to eat. You end up trying to use willpower or resist hunger signals and may even go as far as taking appetite suppressants. This results in being unable to know when you really are hungry or wore….when you’re full.

6. Dieting can lead to eating disorders.

Experts state that the high rates of eating disorders in the U.S. are due in part to people dieting, losing weight, rebounding, and becoming chronic dieters.

7. Dieting Causes Food Obsessions.

If you spend a large amount of time and energy depriving yourself of food or certain types of food – you will spend more time thinking about food and become obsessed attempts to control your weight by what you choose to eat or not eat. How long do you want to live like this?

8. Dieting Diminishes Women.

There is way too much attention focused on our appearance and an arbitrary number on the scale. In the midst of this focus – we end up avoiding what really matters to us – our dreams and ambitions. Even worse, it erodes our confidence and self-respect.

9. Dieting Intensifies Negativity.

If you diet, you are more judgmental and critical of yourself and others. Once again, wasted time and energy.

10. Diets Put Your Life on Hold.

Does this sound familiar….”I’ll be happy when I weigh “x pounds.” Guess what, the issues in your life are not related to your weight. Take responsibility and take back control of your life. Decide to be happy now and do what it takes to live a lifestyle that reflects your priorities.

So this year resolve to NOT go on a Diet. Set Yourself Free from this miserable, guaranteed to fail weight loss cycle. Do NOT let the diet industry make money by taking advantage of you. It is time to stand up for yourself and take control.

Beauty Tips
