सांडे के तेल के फायदे, उपयोग और नुकसान

सांडे का तेल आम तौर पर कौतूहल का विषय़ होता है। इस लेकर लोगों की अलग अलग धारणाएं हैं। कुछ लोग इसे सेक्स समस्याओं का इलाज बताते हैं। कुछ लोग इसके फायदों को कपोल कल्पना मानते हैं। आमतौर पर सांडे का तेल एक आयुर्वेदिक तत्वों का मिश्रण माना जाता है जो एक जीव के ग्रंथियों से मिलता है।

इस तेल की बिक्री दुकानों से ज्यादा फुटपाथ, बसों, रेलवे स्टेशन पर की जाती है। इसके फायदे का दावा करने वाले कहते हैं कि यह लिंग की कमजोरी, शीघ्र पतन समेत कई सेक्स समस्याओं में कारगर है। वहीं बहुत से लोग इसे लगाने से एलर्जी, जलन आदि की शिकायत करते हैं।

क्योंकि यह जीव को मारकर प्राप्त किया जाता है ऐसे में सरकार ने इस तेल पर प्रतिबंध लगा दिया है। आइए जानते हैं सांडे का तेल क्या होता है, इसे कैसे बनाया जाता है, इसे फायदे और नुकसान क्या हैं?

क्या होता है सांडे का तेल

सांडा रेतीले इलाकों में पाया जाना वाला एक का जीव होता है। यह देखने में बड़ी छिपकली जैसा होता है और भारत में राजस्थान और आसपास के मरुस्थल मे ज्यादा संख्या में पाया जाता है। सांडे का तेल इसी जीव को मारकर के इसके अंदर पाई जाने वाली एक ग्रंथि से प्राप्त होता है। इस तेल को समान्य तौर पर सेक्स से जुड़ी समस्याओं से निजात दिलाने वाला माना जाता है। सांडे का तेल लिंग की कमजोरी, स्तंभन दोष, शीघ्र पतन , लिंग की नसों में होने वाला ढीलापन आदि समस्या को दूर करता है। इसके अलावा यह भी दावा किया जाता है कि सांडे का तेल लगाने से सेक्स के समय उत्तेजना बढ़ जाती है। सांडे के तेल से लिंग के साइज, उसकी मोटाई आदि की समस्या  भी दूर होने का दावा किया जाता है।

कैसे बनता है सांडे का तेल

गर्म रेगिस्तान में पाई जाने वाली एक सरीसृप सांडा की पूंछ के नीचे एक छोटी से ग्रंथि में सांडे का तेल पाया जाता है। इस ग्रंथि को पूंछ के नीचे से अलग किया जाता है और इसी थैली जैसी ग्रंथी को पिघलाकर सांडे का तेल बनाया जाता है। इस तेल को बनाने के लिए ग्रंथि को गर्म पानी में खौलाया जाता है और ठंडा कर इसे अलग कर इससे तेल बनया जाता है। वैसे सांडे के तेल को लेकर बाजार में बहुत से लोग सड़क किनारे से लेकर अलग अलग दुकानों और हकीम बैद्यों के यहां मिल जाएंगे। पर विशेषज्ञ मानते हैं कि असली तेल मिलना बहुत ही कठिन होता है। सरकार के प्रतिबंध के बाद तो यह और भी मुश्किल हो गया है। ऐसे में यह तेल पुराने हकीमों, खानदानी वैद्यों के पास मिल सकता है।

कैसे काम करता है सांडे का तेल

विशेषज्ञों के मुताबिक इस तेल में गर्मी बहुत होती है। क्योंकि इसकी तासीर गर्म होती है से में जब यह लिंग पर लगाया जाता है तो लिंग में खून का संचालन तेज होता है। सांडे के तेल की तासीर से लिंग में खून का सर्कुलेशन बहुत बढ़ जाता है। ऐसा होने से लिंग का स्तंभन ज्यादा बेहतर होता है। इसके अलावा कई तरह के अन्य फायदा भी होते हैं।

कैसे लगाएँ सांडे का तेल

सांडे का तेल लगाने का तरीका बहुत ही आसान है। इस तेल को लगाने के लिए इसकी कुछ बूंद हाथ में लेकर इसे अपने लिंग पर मालिश करनी होती है। इस मालिश में तेल को आगे से पीछे की ओर या पीछे से आगे की ओर लगाना होता है। ध्यान देने वाली बात है कि इसे लिंग के ऊपरी भाग यानी लिंग शीर्ष पर नहीं लगाना चाहिए इससे एलर्जी समेत कई तरह के नुकसान हो सकते हैं। यदि आप इस तेल को लगाने और कामोत्तेजक बनाना चाहते हैं तो आप इसे अपने पार्टनर से भी लगवा सकते हैं। इससे आपको चरम सुख मिल सकता है।

साडें के तेल के फायदे

स्तंभन दोष

इन दिनों जीवनशैली की आपाधापी और स्ट्रेस की वजह से पुरुषों में स्तंभन दोष की समस्या बहुत आम है। इस समस्या के लिए सांडे का तेल उपयोगी हो सकता है। इस तेल में अश्वगंधा, लौंग और धतूरे में पाए जाने वाली तत्व पाए जाते हैं। ऐसे में यह तेल स्तंभन दोष को दूर करने में सहायक है। यह बात और है कि इस संबंध को अभी वैज्ञानिक शोध के माध्यम से स्थापित नहीं किया गया है।

शीघ्रपतन

सांडे के तेल में पाए जाने वाले तत्व शरीर में रक्त प्रवाह को बेहतर बनाते हैं। इससे समय से पहले या फिर शीघ्र पतन की समस्या से निजात मिल जाती है। इस तेल में वो तत्व मौजूद होते हैं जो शतावरी, अश्वगंधा  और लौंग में मिलते हैं। यह ज्यादा उत्तेजित नसों को आराम पहुंचाते हैं जिससे शीघ्रपतन नहीं होता है। 

सूजन एं ब्लड शुगर

सांडे के तेल में वही तत्व पाए जाते हैं जो जीरे में पाए जाते हैं ऐसे में यह तत्व शरीर में सूजन को कम करने में सहायक होते हैं। इसी तरह यह तत्व फेफड़ों  में भी खून की आपूर्ति को बेहतर बनाते हैं जिसे आपको फायदा मिलता है। यही तत्व ब्लड में शुगर लेवल को मैनेज करता है।   

इसके अलावा सांडे के तेल के और भी फायदे हैं

  • यह  सेक्स पावर और कॉन्फिडेंस बढ़ता है
  • लिंग की नसे अगर कमजोर हो तो उसे दुरुस्त बनाता है

सांडे के तेल के नुकसान

विशेषज्ञों मे कुछ लोग ऐसे भी हैं जिनके मुताबिक सांडे के तेल के फायदे सिर्फ कपोल कल्पना हैं। उनका मानना है कि सांडे की ग्रंथि से निकलने वाली चर्बी किसी भी दूसरे वसा की तरह ही होती है। ऐसा वैज्ञानिक जांच से प्रमाणित भी किया जा सकता है। ऐसे में यह दावा करना कि सांडे के तेल में ऐसी कोई विशेषता है जो यौन रोगों का इलाज कर सके तो यह दावा सिर्फ हवाई ही माना जा सकता है।

इसके अलावा बहुत से ऐसे लोगों को नुकसान देखने को मिले हैं जैसे

  • उन्हें एलर्जी हो जाती है
  • सांडे का तेल लगाने वाली जगह जिसमें कई बार प्लास्टिक सर्जरी तक करानी पड़ती है
  • कई बार तेल वाली जगह पर दाने निकल सकते हैं
  • तेल से होने वाली एलर्जी कभी कभी गंभीर रूप ले लेती है जिससे सांस में तकलीफ भी हो सकती है।

डाक्टरों को मानना है कि सांडे के तेल का अगर इस्तेमाल करना भी है तो पहले विशेषज्ञों से सलाह लेकर ही इस्तेमाल करना चाहिए। क्योंकि इरेक्टाइल डिस्फंक्शन यानी स्तंभन दोष के दो तिहाई रोगी साइकोथिरैपी से ही ठीक हो जाते हैं।

Chronic Diseases - How Is Homeopathy Effective In It?

Chronic Diseases - How Is Homeopathy Effective In It?

The human body, like all living forms, goes through a lifecycle. Just as you see a plant from a small tender sapling to a tender tree to an old firm tree to a withering age where the branches grow weak and gradually break off.  The tree finally grows weak, becomes susceptible to attacks by worms and insects, and finally breaks down. The same is true for the human body too. While we always go through acute diseases due to infections, allergies and accidents, there is a bunch of diseases which affect us for longer durations. 

These chronic diseases can be due to various reasons - allergic, infective, autoimmune, structural, psychological, physiological, malignant, functional, psychosomatic, iatrogenic and many others. 

Homeopathy believes that each chronic disease has its own set of symptoms, many of which are not obvious. It is the entire set of symptoms which need to be unravelled and treated. Homeopathy believes in providing a holistic cure for the patient, not just the disease that is manifested.

With homeopathy, be ready to look at yourself slightly differently and holistically. Not many would believe that a problem in the lungs or the brain could be linked to watery eyes or skin eruptions.  The first discussion with a homeopath could run into a couple of hours covering a wide range of topics including personality type, fears, griefs, weather reactions, food desires, sleep and dream patterns, genetic factors, past sexual life, and a lot of physical/emotional parameters. For someone who is looking for a quick "medicine" to heal the current problem, this may sound absurd and even irritating. For homeopathy to work, it is important for the patient to understand how it aims to work. It takes a lot of patience and duration for the holistic treatment to take effect. The homeopath needs to identify the "direction of cure" based on these and monitor it over a period of time. In the initial phase, there could be an aggravation of symptoms, but that will soon subside. Homeopathy believes in "like treats like," so soon after the treatment begins, there could be increased symptoms in other, perceived non-related parts. The doctor would usually explain what to expect, so watch out for other erupting symptoms and keep your doctor informed.

One thing homeopathy patients vouch for is the pay-off on this patience.  Not many would have relapse of the symptoms as they are cured, not just given palliative care. Homeopathy does cure a lot of diseases, in the true sense of the word.

Swimming Vs Running - Which One Should You Go For?

Swimming Vs Running - Which One Should You Go For?

Swimming or running? Having to prioritize between the two can be quite a daunting task. While swimming has its loyal followers, one cannot ignore the health benefits of running either. In fact, swimming and running are like two faces of the same coin. What is suitable for one may not be an ideal choice for another. While swimming may be helpful for some, others might benefit from running. Following the mad rush does not make any sense. Know what are your requirements, strengths, and weaknesses and then choose between the two.

This article is an attempt to clear your confusion and thus, help you choose between the two.

  1. Injury: Running and swimming can both result in an injury. However, running is more intense. Thus, chances and frequency of an injury (muscle cramps, ligament tear, sprain or fracture) are slightly more in the case of running. In comparison, swimming is less strenuous. There is less probability of a sprain or a fracture in swimming.
  2. Body workout: If you are looking for a complete body workout, swimming is what the doctors have just advised. The different strokes in swimming ensure maximum muscular movements. Every part of your body, from head toe, are involved in swimming. Running, however, is not a complete body workout.
  3. Joint problems: For people with joint problems or associated conditions such as arthritis (especially Rheumatoid Arthritis), running might be highly uncomfortable and risky, aggravating the problems further. Under such circumstances, swimming comes as a much-needed breather. Not only is it safe, but also comfortable (people with severe arthritis should, however, consult the doctor before swimming). Swimming is an excellent exercise for improving the motor skills and also building on the core strength.
  4. Calories burned: Finally some good news for the runners. If you are looking for a high-calorie burnout (where you have to sweat it out literally), running is what you just need. Swimming also helps to burn the calories, but running has a slightly higher impact. As per a survey, you burn close to 700 calories by running for seven miles per hour. Surprising, you burn only 550 calories (per hour) by swimming 50 yards per minute.
  5. Bone health: If swimming is good for the joints, running is important for your bones. Running plays a pivotal role in improving and increasing the bone density in a person.
  6. Hormonal affect: Swimming is believed to improve your cognitive abilities. Endorphins, also known as the "Feel Good" hormone is known to lift your spirits. It enhances your mood like never before. Swimming releases this important hormone in your body. No wonder you feel so good and relaxed after swimming.

Both swimming and running come with their own sets of merits and demerits. Choosing between the two can be an uphill task.

Caring For Yourself After Surgery!

Caring For Yourself After Surgery!

You probably think many more things can go wrong during surgery as compared to after surgery. However, you are wrong. The chances of infection after surgery are very high and it used to be the highest cause of unsuccessful surgery in the past before it was known just how deadly infection is. A doctor, however, cannot monitor everything afterwards. Therefore, it is crucial you know and takes care after the surgery.

Here are some ways in which you can do so:

1. Keep it dry
It is crucial that you keep the incision dry for whatever period of time the doctor tells you to keep it dry as otherwise the chances of infection increase dramatically. Some of the things you should do to keep it dry is to not take a bath, scrub the incisions or put lotions on it. In fact, you should also not expose it to sunlight.

2. Keep the incisions
You must trust your doctor as the doctor is trained and usually knows better than you. Therefore, if the doctor tells you to keep the incisions then keep them. Do not scrub, rub or put powder on them either.

3. Check for signs of infection
This may be the easiest thing to do as there are many symptoms of an infection. These include a change in the colour, size, or odour of the incision, fever, redness, hardening or heating of the surrounding area or in extreme cases more bleeding and pain than usual.

4. Changing a dressing
This is a major cause of infections among surgery patients and the only way to prevent it is to follow the doctor's instructions to a tee. Once again, trust your doctor and remember to wash your hands and put on medical gloves. Do not put alcohol, iodine or hydrogen peroxide either.

You must see your doctor if there are any changes in your body or a feeling of weakness, uneasyness, unwellness or fever.

Old Age Problems - How Can Counselling Be Of Help?

Old Age Problems - How Can Counselling Be Of Help?

Old age is the most fathomed stage of any human’s lifecycle. By the time all the hair are greyish white, teeth are weak, and falling off; there is almost nothing left to fuel the sparks of desire to live. It is scientifically proven that during old age an average human faces the maximum amount of problems.

When an individual is all old and wise, they often become victims of various psychological conditions, which include depression, loneliness, and anxiety. All these terms are overlooked as they are old people waiting for the death, but what their children and younger ones, fail to realize is that all they need is a little bit of guidance and counseling to feel better and stay happy and content till their last breath.

Why is counseling required in old age?

  • To get rid of the depressive lows: When a person turns old, he/she is compelled to let go of numerous things that he/she never wanted to live without. Some of these include—they are forced to retire from their job, they are distanced from their family, and they become entirely obsolete with no purpose for continuing their lives. All these situations often make the elderly feel that there is nothing left for them anymore. It makes them feel sad and depressed and at the same time might make them lonely. They know that they are not physically fit for the job, but they still have a feeling of uselessness deep down in their heart.
  • To rev up social interaction: By going to a counselor, the old people can speak their hearts out, feel connected to someone, and can seek help for the things that no one could understand. Counselors can suggest them activities that include social interaction and more, that could use up their free time and keep them occupied. They can recommend small yet efficient and meaningful exercises, which include reading books or watching movies to keep their mind diverted and distracted. A counselor can do wonders and provide excellent facilities, as well.
  • To get help in case of traumas: Counseling is also essential in case of individuals who have suffered a significant trauma in their old age. This includes losing a family member in some accident or being entirely neglected by one's own family. Even in India, many families consider their parents and grandparents to be a burden and send them to old age homes without thinking how they would feel. In such cases, counseling becomes essential to ensure that our elders have a stable mind and are satisfied with the life they have led.

Counseling at old age is not a shameful thing or activity in vain. It is very much essential to ensure that our elders are confident and happy during their last stage of life.

Brain Tumor - Know The Types & Symptoms Of It!

Brain Tumor - Know The Types & Symptoms Of It!

Brain tumours vary in shape and size and the same is the case with their symptoms. The location of the tumour affects the symptoms greatly. Just like in any other type of a malignant tumour, brain tumour has a rapid growth and proliferation of abnormal cells that may have its origin in affected site or areas adjacent to it.

As per studies, every 2 in 1,00,000 people are said to be affected by brain tumour in India. However, it may come as a relief to some as not all brain tumors are cancerous or life threatening. Some are benign tumors and seldom pose any threat to the affected individual.

Types of Brain Tumor:

Brain tumors may be primary or secondary.

  1. Primary brain tumor: Here the abnormal mass of cells that originated in the brain do not metastasize to the other organs. Based on their location in the brain, the primary brain tumors may be of the following types.
    • Gliomas: One of the most common types of primary brain tumors, gliomas can have their origin in the spinal cord or the brain. Some of the common types of gliomas include Astrocytomas (originates in the cerebrum of the brain), Glioblastomas (these tumors form from the Astrocytes which form the supportive tissues of the brain), Ependymoma (these develop from the ependymal cells which are present within the CNS), Oligodendrogliomas (these tumors are found to arise from the oligodendrocytes).
    • Schwannomas: Also called as Acoustic neuromas, these primary brain tumors form on the nerves that play an important role in regulating the balance and hearing from the inner ear to the brain.
    • Meningiomas: These type of tumors are usually benign and have their origin in the meninges (membranes surrounding the spinal cord and the brain).
    • Primitive neuroectodermal tumors (PNETs): Primitive neuroectodermal tumors (PNETs) are rare malignant tumors that originate from the fetal(embryonic) cells in the brain.
    • Pituitary adenomas: As the name suggests, these tumors arise from the pituitary gland located at the base of the brain.
    • Medulloblastomas: Common among the children, these malignant primary tumors develop in the brain (lower back) and gradually spread via the spinal fluid.
    • Other types of primary brain tumors include Craniopharyngiomas and the Germ cell tumors.
  2. Secondary brain tumors: Unlike the primary brain tumors, these tumors have their origin in the other body parts and organs (mostly in the lungs, skin, colon, breast, and kidney) and then gradually metastasize to the brain. The secondary brain tumors are found to be more common.

Symptoms or warning signs associated with brain tumors:

Some of the signs and symptoms that may be indicative of a brain tumor include

  1. People with brain tumors often get seizures (due to the irritation caused by the tumors in the brain).
  2. A headache (mild to severe depending on the part of the brain affected by the tumor).
  3. A person experiences numbness or a tingling sensation in the legs and arms.
  4. There may be difficulties in walking or balancing.
  5. A person finds it difficult to concentrate.
  6. There may be some problems with hearing, speech or even vision.
  7. A person may experience weakness restricted to only one part of the body.

The symptoms may not necessarily indicate a brain tumor but it is always wise not to neglect the symptoms either.

Day Hunger - How To Manage It?

Day Hunger - How To Manage It?

Many people feel hungry throughout the day. They are lethargic until they lay their hands on food. These sessions of hunger go on like a vicious circle and if not resisted it can lead to health issues.

Some ways are given below to prevent unnecessary hunger:

  1. A high- fibre diet can prevent unnecessary hunger - Your diet should be rich in fibre. The body takes a longer span of time to digest fibre-rich food. It also makes you feel full for hours together. Having fibre will keep your bowel movements in control and is therefore healthy. Remember to add extra fibre to your bowl of cereals or salad to keep pangs of hunger at bay.
     
  2. Divide one heavy meal into two smaller meals - Eating heavy meals and that too less frequently is really bad for your health. This can make you feel hungry time and again. To control the constant rumbling inside your tummy, you should divide one big meal into two or more smaller meals. For instance, if you were supposed to eat sandwiches, boiled eggs and soup for lunch, you should probably eat sandwiches at noon and eat the soup and eggs any time later in the day.
  3. Never be a fast eater - Jumping on your food is the worst way of tackling things. Research studies show how a human brain takes more than twenty minutes to tell your body it is full and satisfied. If you don't wish to overeat throughout the day, you must consume your food slowly. This way the brain takes more time in realizing it is full and thus further time in feeling subsequent hunger.
     
  4. Eat sufficiently during mealtime - Many tend to eat inadequately during mealtime and as soon as they are done with their food they feel hungry. It is important to fill yourself sufficiently when you are already eating. A person snacking on carrots and corns can keep away from binge eating.
     
  5. Drink more glasses of water - Every person should drink around three to four litres of water. Drinking water half an hour after a meal can keep your gustatory concerns in check for long. Water keeps you hydrated, helps in digestion and controls unnecessary hunger.
     
  6. Eat a good amount of protein - Protein makes you full in very little time and thus doesn't need to be consumed in great quantities. It will make you feel content for long as your blood sugar levels are in balance through protein consumption. Protein takes time to be digested.

Osteopenia - Know Symptoms Of It!

We may be lost in progression and may have a lot to achieve in life, there may be things that we just cannot let go off, such as success and in such a rush for advancement and success we may be overlooking health in the bargain. Though we may not realize it, as age progresses, the health takes a toll and the disease-fighting and sustenance abilities of the body also start to decline. One of the most common problems that a lot of people go through is the weakening of the bones.

There may be instances, particularly in women, where they may feel fatigued and tired and this is something that most women may ignore so that they may be able to concentrate on the other aspects of life. However, more than often, the problems that the women face are known to be symptoms of health issues such as Osteopenia. Osteopenia is a problem of the bones where they gradually lose their natural ability to make sufficient amount of calcium necessary for the health and safety of the bone structure and when the problem takes a severe turn it may lead to osteoporosis.

Knowing the symptoms:
The problem of osteopenia may not have obvious symptoms in the beginning but people who suffer from the problem may complain of the following issues:

  1. A lot of people may experience lower back pain when they are suffering from osteopenia.
  2. The back pain may also arise from the hunching of the back which is another symptom of the health issue.
  3. There have been instances of patients suffering from lowering of the height when they are suffering from the bone-related issue.
  4. The fracturing of bones becomes more likely for people who suffer from the problem.
  5. Lots of people may also end up losing teeth due to the issue.
  6. One of the biggest symptoms is that the patients of osteopenia usually also develop osteoporosis in the advanced stages of the issue.

Treating Osteopenia:
Though there is no confirmed cure for the issue, it is possible to be able to control the problem and limit its ill-effects or symptoms. With a revision of dietary habits to include foods that help in the increase of calcium, you may be able to control the problem to a great extent. It may also be possible to keep the issue under check by following healthy lifestyle habits such as quitting smoking or following regular exercise routines or taking the right treatment or medications as suggested by a specialist. Sometimes a disease can be a result of an underlying illness that you are unaware of, which is why self-diagnosis or treatment may not be advised and it is always wiser to take help from your physician.
