Sexual Performance Anxiety – All is not lost there is hope with Dr. Dalal

Sexual performance

Sexual Performance Anxiety can frustrate your sexual fulfillment. Seeking for help in good time will help you recover from this problem.

Sex is supposed to be a pleasurable experience, but it’s hard to feel sexy or intimate with your partner when you have sexual performance anxiety which comes when you’re constantly wondering;

  • Am I doing this right?
  • Is my partner enjoying this?
  • Do I look fat?
  • Will I satisfy my partner?
  • Will I keep my erection?

With all these questions and worries you become too preoccupied to enjoy sex. Constant worry over your appearance or ability in bed can make sex stressful, boring and nerve-wracking. It can even make you want to avoid having sex in totality to avoid the feeling of disgrace. However it is important to know that sex is more than just a physical response and being aroused is tied into your emotions too. When your mind is too stressed out to focus on sex, your body can’t get excited either. We want to explore some of the sexual performance anxieties and possible solution which will help reignite your sex life.

Causes of Sexual Performance Anxiety

It is common knowledge that the human brain is at the center of all body functions controlling every activities taking place within the body this also include sex and anything around it. When planning to have sex it will be important that your brain is in absorber state to execute the functions relating to sex performances. There are very many different kinds of worries which can lead to sexual performance anxiety some of them may include:

  • Fear that you won’t perform well in bed and satisfy your partner sexually
  • Poor body image, including concern over your weight
  • Difficulties in your relationship
  • A man’s worry that his penis won’t measure up
  • A man’s concern about ejaculating prematurely or taking too long to reach orgasm
  • A woman’s anxiety about not being able to have an orgasm or enjoy the sexual experience

These are realistic concerns that anyone can experience and especially if you’re coming from a background of sexual dysfunctions of any kind. When they happen the body will always find a way of responding back by releasing stress hormones like epinephrine and norepinephrine in a series of reactions designed to basically confront and prepare your body for any forms of threats. Remember the kind of threats we are referring to does not include your partner, these reactions are intended to counterproductive to intimacy. I want to believe that by now you’re able to draw the line and position yourself as either having problems relating to sex or not, I want to address that person suffering silently in isolation because of sexual dysfunction.

Symptoms of Sexual Performance Anxiety

Your state of mind can have a big impact on your ability to get aroused. Even if you’re with someone who you find sexually appealing, worrying about whether you’ll be able to please your partner can make it impossible for you to do just that.

In men, one of the effects of the stress hormones is to constrict blood vessels. When there is inadequate blood flowing into the penis, erection becomes difficult let alone sustaining it, this is because erection is possible only with adequacy of blood. Erection dysfunction affects even those men who normally don’t have any trouble getting excited; they too can become unable to get an erection when they’re overcome by sexual performance anxiety.

Even though sexual performance anxiety isn’t diagnosed as often in women as it is in men, but it can also affect there arousal too. Anxiety can prevent women from getting lubricated enough to have sex, and it can take away the physical desire to make love. These are some of the symptoms that when you notice frequently, then you need to start getting professional solution from the experts timely before the condition deteriorates further. Help is within reach if only you can make that very important call today.

Anxiety can take both men and women out of the mind-set needed to have sex. When your focus is diverted on whether you’ll perform well or not, you will lose concentration and this will adversely affect your performance in bed. Anyone who is distracted in anyway will not be attentive to love making which can make them feel like failures even more and this just compounds the magnitude of the problem that is already out of hand. Even if you are able to get aroused, you may be too distracted to reach orgasm and you can understand the consequences of that.

Sexual performance anxiety leads to a perpetual cycle. You become so anxious about sex that you can’t perform, which leads to even more sexual performance anxiety.

Weight Loss and Stress the Missing Link

October 23, 2013

Understanding Weight Loss and Stress

Weight loss and Stress are linked, it is hard to lose weight when– Stress…Is Everywhere! says Dr. Dalal Akoury

Weight Loss and Stress

Understanding Weight Loss and Stress

Lets face it people, stress will always be in our lives… to a certain degree anyways.  It is almost a way of life in the 21st century.  Stress can be a major prohibiting factor to weight loss and can even contribute to weight gain.  Chronic stress can be tied to an increase in appetite and ultimately stress-induced weight gain.  It all starts in our neuroendocrine system.  This system activates a hormones in response to stress or life threatening situations.  The hormones released during this response is adrenaline, corticotrophin releasing hormone (CRH), and cortisol.  Elevated levels of adrenaline and CRH cause a decreased appetite.  This result is usually temporary.  Cortisol on the other hand is there to support and replenish our body after the stressors have gone.  This elevated level of cortisol remains for a long period of time and tends to increase appetite.  For most people, increased appetite means increase in weight gain!

 Weight Loss – Stress A Tyrannosaurs Rex  or a Late Electric Bill?

This response from the neuroendocrine system is doing what it is supposed to do but it was not designed for the 21st century stressors.  The increase in hormones was intended for life threatening situations such as, a tyrannosaurs rex trying to eat your entire family as it was in the time of cavemen.  The calories or stored food in the body we would have used to fight off the tyrannosaurs rex in the beginning of time is not being expended in modern day.  Now “we” mope around and fuss and dwell on our stressors and anger.  Eating has become our stress reliever.  At this point or neuroendocrine system is confused and has not received the necessary signals to know if we fought off that tyrannosaurs rex or not.  This causes us to feel hungry because the hormones are still being released to restore calories lost and our depleted food stores.

AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center team and Dr. Dalal Akoury reminds us that – Weight Loss  a ndStress – Cortisol and the Adrenals – are all connected

Cortisol is actually made in the Adrenal Cortex.  It controls the strength of our immune system, normalizes blood sugar, and regulates blood pressure.  This production is due to adrenal cortical stimulating hormone (ACTH) produced in the pituitary gland.  If the adrenals are producing to much of the cortisol, the motions for increased susceptibility to infections and cancer will occur, along with weight gain around the belly area and your immune system can be compromised.  Opposite of that, if too little cortisol is produced chronic fatigue can occur and so can exhaustion.  An overactive immune system could develop as could autoimmune disease.

Dr. Dalal Akoury founder of AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center describes the Weight and  Stress connection – Let’s Correct That Cortisol Level!!

 Weight Loss and Stress the Missing Link

Stress reduction is an essential part of all efforts to normalize cortisol. Stress is the stimuli that caused the cortisol levels to get out of hand to begin with. Each individual should explore and find the stress reduction techniques that work best for themselves. Meditation, physical activities, attitude changes, just to name a few are good paths to explore. Without stress reduction, therapeutic and support measures will ultimately fail.

Get plenty of rest.  Rest must be handled as a scheduled and straight forward strategy, choice, and course of action. That may sound obvious but how well do you really schedule your rest?  Otherwise it gets lost and forgotten in the high strung pace of life.

A low glycemic diet is also important. Sugar handling stress increases cortisol levels. Elevated cortisol, then disturbs the sugar handling situation, contributing towards the development of high insulin levels and possibly diabetes. Diet alone without stress reduction will not help you lose weight because weight loss and stress are connected.

Weight Loss and Stress

Understanding Weight Loss and Stress

Nutritional supplementation is highly recommended in restoring normal cortisol levels. We suggest a Integrative Therapeutic Cortisol Manager.  Our product will support a healthy sleeping habit without using habit forming ingredients.  Due to the more normal sleeping pattern, the stressors associated with the unhealthy sleeping pattern will disappear.  Phosphatidylserine is the main active ingredient in our Integrative Therapeutic Cortisol Manager and is believed to facilitate the repair of the cortisol receptors in the hypothalamus. It is believed that the cortisol receptors get damaged by high cortisol levels reducing the ability of the hypothalamus to sense and correct high cortisone levels. Because Phosphatidylserine helps repair the feedback control apparatus, it is useful in correcting both high and low cortisol levels.

Another nutritional supplement that is necessary are adaptogen herbs.  Adaptogens are an entire category of herbs that assist the body in coping with stress by restoring hypothalamic cortisol receptor sensitivity.  A combination of these adaptogens are all researched for their effects on increasing stamina, mental alertness and work performance.

The AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center team and it’s founder Dr. Dalal Akoury  describe that Weight gain is caused by  Stress and Having Healthy SEX will help weight loss

The adrenals are a big deal in many people’s sex lives. People usually feel sexier on vacation when the stress level is down. They can relax and also make up their sleep deficit. Many couples complain that they are just too tired to be interested in sex. A great rule for rebuilding the adrenals is “rest is best.” I can guarantee that if one spouse is feeling fearful and anxious, he or she is definitely not feeling very sexy. Remember Weight loss and stress are closely linked.

All of the adrenal hormones, and all the sex hormones for that matter, are steroids. Steroids are made from cholesterol. You need good sources of cholesterol. Forget the margarine and only eat butter. Keep up a good protein intake, which will also provide good sources of cholesterol.  Remember, healthy sex equals healthy adrenals!

Influenza, Conquer naturally, Dr. Akoury

October 19, 2013

  Conquering the Influenza

 AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center – Influenza Season is Serious Business – Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

Conquering the Flu

Conquering the Flu

Influenza season is serious, particularly this year as the H1N1 (“swine”)

Influenza reached pandemic status throughout the world as of July, according to the Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta (CDC) and the World Health Organization (WHO).

An average of 36,000 people die every year from seasonal flu, and 200,000 are hospitalized with serious complications. The H1N1 virus seems to impact a greater diversity of ages and has been of particular concern among pregnant women. Though not considered a high-risk group, H1N1 seems to prefer the under-25 generation. The CDC believes the elder generation may have developed a persistent immunity years ago to a similar viral strain, which still protects them and has rendered much of that age group immune to the current infection.

Like many viral infections, influenza is spread by touch, so easily and quickly runs through a population – be that a household or a schoolroom, a town or a cruise ship. A person is contagious from the day they become infected, before they are even sick, and up to a week or more afterward. Symptoms of this year’s H1N1 virus are similar to those of past years, and include fever and chills, cough, sore throat, runny/stuffy nose, head and body aches, chills, and fatigue. Many have also reported diarrhea and vomiting. For most people, H1N1 causes mild symptoms, and they recover in a few days, though respiratory symptoms tend to linger. For some, however, significant illness – requiring hospitalization – and even death has occurred. It is definitely best to avoid becoming infected.

Dr. Dalal Akoury the Founder of  AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center  explains–  The InfluenzaVirus Remains Active –

Did you know that the Influenza virus can remain alive and active for up to eight hours on a doorknob or tabletop? Did you also know that the most natural cleaners (soap, hydrogen peroxide) are equally effective as the more toxic commercial cleaners? Do yourself a favor and use the mildest method possible – your immune system will thank you in the long run – and use it often on bedside tables, lamps, doorknobs, and bathroom areas. Wash dishes and linins daily while people in your home are ill as well.

As with other infections, many of the best ways to avoid getting sick are the easiest to do, and most are common sense. These include:

  • Cover nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze – and then throw the tissue away immediately.
  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose, or mouth, as these areas are most susceptible to germs.
  • Wash your hands often, especially after you cough/sneeze, touch someone (e.g., handshakes, hugs, etc), or visit public areas. Use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer if washing is not available (rub until hands are dry).
    • Remember, effective hand washing requires soap, the friction of vigorously rubbing hands together for 20 seconds (that’s singing Happy Birthday twice), and running water to rinse it all away. Wash both sides of hands, between fingers, and up past the wrist.
  • Stay away from close contact with people who are sick. If you are sick, wait until your fever has been gone for 24 hours (without fever-reducing medication) before you go out or are around others.
  • Follow the advice of public health workers regarding school closures, and avoiding crowds as much as possible.

Dr. Dalal Akoury the Founder of  AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center  recommends – Know Your Risk Potential to get the Flu – 

The groups generally considered high-risk during Influenza season are the very young, very old, and those whose immune systems aren’t

Conquering the Flu

Conquering the Flu

working properly. As mentioned, this year’s H1N1 seems to be affecting those between 5 and 25 and pregnant women, and SC is just now seeing rising cases of Influenza. Though usually a mild illness, there are warning signs that indicate a need for immediate medical attention. In children, very fast or difficult breathing, a bluish or gray cast to the skin, and not waking up or interacting with others are trouble signs, as are a general refusal to drink fluids, or being uncharacteristically irritable. If adults begin to suffer difficulty in breathing, shortness of breath, pain or pressure in chest or abdomen, dizziness, or confusion, they should seek immediate medical attention. Severe or persistent vomiting or symptoms that are gone only to come back worse than they were before are indications that medical care is needed no matter the age.

It is also important to be prepared in case you do get sick, when you will have to stay home for a week or so. Stock up on tissues, food, and liquids like tea and Emergen-C. If you need medical attention, be sure to tell the office that you have the Influenza, so you can be brought in the back door and avoid infecting others.

Dr. Dalal Akoury the Founder of  AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center  stresses that you should Enhance Your Immune System overcome the Influenza

Remember, an influenza infection typically lasts 5 to 7 days. The treatment at AWAREmed can substantially decrease this time, and make sufferers feel better as they recover. Among the modalities used at AWAREmed are those specifically targeted toward enhancing the immune system, and when the immune system is functioning at an optimal level, it is easier for the body to either fight off an infection altogether, or to get it under control more quickly. Argentyn 23TM is one such agent, one that uses modern scientific methods to deliver silver hydrosols in a sub-nanometer size. Homeopathy may also be used, which works much like a vaccine in a “like cures like” sort of way, as well as hydrotherapy, which calms the spirit as it enhances the immune system. IV nutrition can be an amazing treatment, whether to deliver much needed fluids or to administer disease-busting nutrients and the antioxidants to clean up the mess left behind. AWAREmed’s new  state of the art IV Meditation room offers a soothing atmosphere where patients can relax, be nurtured, and receive the treatments designed especially for the Influenza

GMO foods and Your Health. What is a GMO foods?

October 19, 2013
Your Health and GMO foods. What is a GMO foods?

Dr. Dalal Akoury

 Your Health and GMO foods.  What is a GMO foods?

Here at AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center, we believe that people should be as healthy as they can possibly be! But sometimes we don’t know the right foods to eat, and which to avoid. Thats why we’re here to help you understand what GMOs are and why they should be avoided. Please feel free to email us if you have any other questions. Dr. Dalal Akoury

A GMO is the DNA of an organism that has been altered in an unnatural way. It is also known as “modern biotechnology” or “gene technology”. These organisms are used to create a genetically modified plant, which is then used to grow food crops.

This is a controversial topic and it has many views on its advantages and disadvantages:

Your Health and GMO foods. What is a GMO foods?

Your Health and GMO foods. What is a GMO foods?

Advantages:

–          It has been tested many times, there are numerous studies that have traced the effects of GMOs foods on animals. Most of these studies have shown that GMO Foods are safe and not harmful to consume.

–          It is easier for farming. GMO Foods allow plants/crops to be altered to grow in environments that usually would not be sustainable for normal plants to grow.

–          It can be grown in larger quantities, so this makes the price of food lower. If the farming doesn’t take that much work then that means there is more of it. This will lead to food that isn’t as expensive, which will make food more attainable and accessible for people of all income statuses.

Disadvantages:

–           It can affect human health. Most of the studies that have been performed are on animals, rather than humans. The danger is that we do not know the long term affects that it has on humans, since it has never been measured before. Many scientists are not sure if these GMO Foods will cause: exposure to allergens, antibiotic resistance, endocrine disruption, reproductive disorders and accelerated aging.

–          The FDA treats GMO Foods the same way that they treat regularly grown crops or plants.  There is not much testing required for these crops or plants to sell. They also do not have to be educationally or nutritionally labeled, which affects the consumer because they are not completely sure what they are eating and how it will affect their body.

–          There is a controversial problem on ethics. The issue is that many people feel is unethical. They think it is against the law of nature and not in the normal cycle of life to do this. Some religions are also strongly against GMO Foods for this reason; they think it is against God’s doings.

–          Most countries do not think GMOs are safe. There are almost 50 countries that have major restrictions or have banned, producing and selling GMOs. The United States is one of the countries that still approve GMO Foods.

–          They can affect our environment! Almost all of the GMOs that are harvested are resistant to herbicides. The use of toxic herbicides has increased 15 times since GMO Foods were introduced. These plants and crops have also produced what people now call, “super weeds” and “super bugs”. These have to be killed with even more toxic poisons than normal.

 

Dr. Dalal Akoury and the team of AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center  explain: Some people want to completely avoid GMO Foods, what is the best way to do it?

Buying organic food! There are absolutely no GMOs involved when buying organic food. There is an actual certification saying that they are not manipulated in any form.

AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center team and Dr. Dalal Akoury describe: The main foods that are most likely to contain 

Your Health and GMO foods. What is a GMO foods?

  • Corn: is known as a highly modified food. Almost half of the corn grown in the United States is genetically modified. Some researchers believe that this corn can lead to several health problems, including weight gain and organ failure.
  • Soy: It is estimated that 89% of soy is genetically modified. This crop can be found in tofu, different vegetarian products, and soybean oil. It is also modified to resist herbicides.
  • Sugar Beets: Some studies have shown that the United States carries genetically-modified sugar beets. They also have resistance to herbicides.
  • Aspartame: is found in diet soda, chewing gum, yogurts, cereals and many artificial sweeteners. It is found that aspartame is made with genetically modified bacteria.
  • Papayas: Most of the genetically modified papayas are from Hawaii, and the United States and Canada consume most it.
  • Canola: is also one of the main modified foods that is consumed in the United States. Canola oil is found through a series of modifying chemical actions.
  • Cotton: It is estimated that 83% of cotton contains GMOs. And has been to led to believe that it has serious health risks.
  • Dairy Products: Most dairy products contain growth hormones because many cows are injected with hormones. Organic milk is the best way to go if you want to drink it.
  • Zucchini and Yellow Squash: Small amounts of these vegetables are led to believe that they are modified to resist viruses.

What are some other foods that contain GMO’s? Explains Dr. Dalal Akoury

Your Health and GMO. What is a GMO?

Your Health and GMO. What is a GMO?

  • Veggie sausages
  • Tortilla chips
  • Most processed foods
  • High fructose corn syrup
  • Meatballs and burgers
  • Alfalfa
  • Cornbread mix and corn meal
  • Any type of protein drinks or powders that are soy-based
  • Cotton-seed oil

How do I avoid GMO’s completely? 

Dr. Dalal Akoury discusses the best solutions for health and Wellness? Select organic foods or start gardening for yourself! You can also try to modify your diet. For example, instead of using canola, soy or corn oil, you can switch them to use olive oil or safflower oil since these are less likely to contain genetic modifications. You should also try to cook healthy foods at home rather than going out to eat and having processed foods that are high in trans-fat.
