A warning was recently issued by doctors who were of the view that expectant mothers who eat for two could jeopardize their health for decades.

It was revealed by doctors that women who put too much of weight in pregnancy are more than four times as likely to be obese as twenty years later as those who follow guidelines of doctors.

From Dailymail.co.uk:

Being obese can take nine years off a person’s life and raise the risk of health problems including diabetes, heart disease, stroke, infertility, depression and some cancers.

Experts said there had been too much emphasis on ensuring babies were born at a healthy weight and not on the health needs of mothers.

The news came as it also emerged that men who are obese at 20 are twice as likely to die young.

The research on mothers-to-be questioned the traditional approach of encouraging them to eat more.

Philip James, an obesity advisor for the Government and the World Health Organisation, said: ‘We need to move from the old story of saying eat what you fancy and put on 26lb.

‘The study is the first to show that excess pregnancy weight gain tends to persist for decades’, said Dr Abdullah Al Mamun, of the University of Queensland.

Sex and desire have always been seen as very important parts of human life but most of us tend to ignore the safety and healthy bedroom rules for a quick, unplanned, and steamy session of sex.

Dr. Barry Buffman, a Board Certified urologist and the director of the Los Angeles Boston Medical Group, has given ten top sex myths that are most common among the male community.

From Timesofindia.indiatimes.com:

The first myth concerns the belief that a woman will not get pregnant if a guy ”pulls out” before ejaculation.

Men do not always know when ejaculatory fluid begins to seep out – and even ahead of a perceptible orgasm, pre-ejaculate (which includes sperm) is released and is enough to get a woman pregnant.

The second myth concerns thinking about someone else during the act, which is a bad thing to do.

A large part of the sexual experience starts with your brain, not your body, and sometimes your brain can wander. If you are committed to your lady, and your relationship is in a good place, it’s okay to think about Angelina Jolie or Megan Fox every now and then.

The third myth is the belief that premature ejaculation only affects young men.

Some men do find that premature ejaculation begins at the onset of sexual maturity, but plenty of men also find it to be an issue later in life. In fact, premature ejaculation affects 30 per cent of men at sometime in their lives.

Often, early ejaculation in men who are in their 30s or older is a co-symptom of erectile dysfunction or fatigue, poor cardiovascular conditioning, depression, anxiety, or neurological symptoms.

The fourth myth is about the belief that oral sex is safer than vaginal sex.

From teenagers to former President Bill Clinton, oral sex seems to have the stigma of a “free pass” as far as sexual relationships go. Yes, it does count as sex, and yes, you can get a sexually transmitted disease from oral sex.

In addition to that, penis size is in no direct relation to the amount of satisfaction that can be experienced with sex. Moreover, a man’s readiness for sex may be influenced by factors such as diet, sleep, health, stress, medical conditions, self confidence, and relationship disharmony.

Cigarette smoking never spares a single body system undisturbed therefore try n quit!!

It has been proved that the younger you start smoking the lesser are the chances for you of quitting nicotine addiction. Google shows a lot of pictures of people living with the smoke day and night and ruining their lives. Although most of them get influenced in their teens as a part of youth style or just to hang around with young generation who says it’s cool! Some think that smoking is the right passage to adulthood. Most of the times teenagers who are trying to quit, get into a situation of stress or depression and they may start smoking again. Once that willpower is overcome by the urge of smoking it becomes very difficult for the person to regain the courage back to force oneself to quit smoking. Google search engine may help you search a good solution as how to quit smoking. Therefore it is very important for the closest people around to counsel the addict with love and care. Among young people addiction to nicotine can cause lots of short term health risks to avoid chances of severe depression and suicide attempts.
