Headaches? Try … an orgasm!
Recent studies have shown that having an orgasm is not only enjoyable; it is useful also for your health!
orgasm and sexual arousal in general, they release two hormones, DHEA and oxytocin, which helps to reduce the risk of breast cancer and also have beneficial effects on the smooth functioning of the heart.
The findings apply to the delight of the healthy both for women than for men.
The male would benefit to the problems of the prostate, while the fair sex would be in the orgasm a valuable ally against the migraine.
These findings are the result of several studies carried out during these last years, and published recently in an article in the Los Angeles Times.
Projects of research, made known between 2003 and 2004, revealed that middle-aged men, who had had at least four orgasms a week between 20 and 50, were less affected by prostate cancer, having reduced the Ben 1 / 3 chance of contracting cancer. Some researchers believe that ‘ejaculation can clean up by prostate cancer cells.
Laboratory tests have shown that women were more able to bear the pain when a vibrator was inserted into the vagina (I hope no one uses against headaches!). When the excitement leads to the orgasm, their pain threshold reached even doubled! That’s why the climax of the pleasure away the hassle of migraine.
Beyond the specific benefits for individual complaints, it seems that orgasm has a positive impact on general health, as a source of physical and mental.
One study lasted 10 years and led the men of Wales, has evidenced that those among them who had two or more orgasms a week halved their odds of dying than those not sexually active.
What remains to say: make love, you will live better and longer! And if your partner does not want let him read this article, if it is true that health is the most important, will be convinced!

The brains of smokers behaves differently from that of non-smokers
Unpleasant and unflattering news coming for heavy smokers: after a few years ago, research conducted by scientists from the universities of Aberdeen and Edinburgh who noted a correlation between smoking habits and progressive deterioration of intelligence, probably caused by stress Oxidative the brain, along with other organs, is submitted by the smoke, comes the news that the bad habit of smoking also harms the ability of decision making. This was stated by a group of neurologists at Baylor College in Houston, Texas, led by Read Montague expert studies on decision-making skills.
U.S. scientists have discovered that decision-making processes of smokers are different, and less effective than those of nonsmokers. Who smokes in fact, when presented with a number of alternatives among which to make a choice, do not evaluate the possible consequences of options rejected. The subjects of the study, published in Nature Neuroscience, and non-smokers, were involved in a game when he was asked to invest money (virtual), choosing between two types of investment. At the end of the game was told they had won thanks to their choice and they would have won if they had opted for the alternative investment.
The figure is quite extraordinary that when he was asked to repeat the experience of smokers, unlike non-smokers, they made their choices without taking into account the lessons learned in previous rounds. To find out how this is possible an MRI was performed during the execution of the game. This however did not detect any difference between the brain activities of two groups of subjects, not just the smokers were able to store or use the information received. Smoking therefore exposed not only to the risk of developing cancer and cardiovascular diseases, but also to show just … awake. I wonder if this, again, disheartening discovery on the damage caused by smoking cannot finally lead to the most die-hard smokers to quit or at least, to take refuge in the electronic cigarette.

Plastic Surgery 3-D: all the stages of an intervention in three dimensions!
American Society of Plastic Surgeons (American Association of Plastic Surgeons) offers a new tool for those who want to get an idea of what will happen, before you go under the knife. Obviously this is a video incorporating live action beauty (we are not there yet!), but a three-dimensional graphics program that, through cartoons, shows patients what effect will surgery and what will happen in surgery, step by step.
The effect is amazingly realistic and makes more than a thousand pictures and simple descriptions of what the final outcome of the operation. Responsible 3-D animation, which surgeons say they love them because they relieve the detailed explanation on how it will be too!
Three-dimensional images of the interventions are from Understand.com.
With this tool you can see step by step what happens in every type of intervention cosmetic surgery, hair transplantation by a simple remake of the breast.
It seems that many patients feel calmer after seeing what happens and all the steps of the intervention.
And thank the surgeons!
