Carrie Moon 68826 Report post Posted December 16, 2012 Perhaps you want to start early on a New Year's resolution.. Perhaps you don't need a reason other than to live longer and be more resilient. I have a strong interest in health. Lately there are a bunch of documentaries and blogs I've found online that I find really good. Please add to this if you find some similar!

oldblueeyez 15475 Report post Posted December 16, 2012 I'm glad I'm not the only health nut here. But I'm not trying to live longer....what the hell's the use of living to 90 only to slowly fade into dementia? I'm just trying to make sure my next 25 years remain healthy and fun. Once I hit 70, if I do, who the hell cares. People are telling me I look ten years younger than I am and it's because I've eliminated fast and processed foods, gone mostly veggie, and boosted my intake of potent, scientifically proven natural antioxidants. I'll tell you something. During the summer I bought organic black grapes. I ate them all that evening. That night I had a hardon that simply would not go away ( I was tired and didn't feel like jerking off). It was no coincidence, as I bought them again later in the week and the same damn thing happened. Antioxidants, polyphenols, lycopene, resveratrol, etc., etc.,... it's all good shit, and science backs it up. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oldblueeyez 15475 Report post Posted December 16, 2012 I had no idea grapes had that effect. Picking some up tomorrow :) They weren't blue or red or purple grapes, they were black organic. Whatever they did, they did it well! I've found that gelatinized maca root (Nativas brand) really boosts the libido too; interestingly, raw maca root did not. Maca works for women as well as men. It seems to boost semen volume as well, if that's a concern. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nature's viagra! I tried watermelon when I heard about it's side effects. I would eat it daily (produce section had fresh cut up watermelon for sale). No side effects Turns out you need something like six cups of watermelon to get the desired effects, but another side effect with that amount of watermelon, diarrhea :-( Now I never took that amount daily, probably explains why it didn't work for me. http://www.buzzle.com/articles/can-watermelon-boost-your-sex-life.html But l-argenine, in pill form, does work...emphasis, for me. Along with adding "Tribulus 20000" I'm not saying watermelon doesn't work, it just didn't work for me...but we are all wired differently aren't we. Anyone needing an assist may just have to do trial and error research like I did to find what works for you. But for health resolutions, I'm going to start a routine of walking everyday plus eat more good foods and less bad ones...my cat is mad already, he knows no more Hagen Das in 2013 :-) RG 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oldblueeyez 15475 Report post Posted December 29, 2012 Just thought I'd chime back in here. There's a new Canadian product called bioflavia (bioflavia.ca) which consists of dried powdered organic dark grape skin. I dropped a teaspoon of it in the half bottle of organic red wine I had left in the fridge, then drank it. Some people scoff at organic, but when it comes to resveratrol, it matters very much because it's a compound produced by the grape vine to fight off mould, and if the grapes are sprayed with fungicides, the plant has a much smaller need to produce resveratrol. There's a technique to drinking wine for health purposes. As the resveratrol and other good stuff is mostly destroyed once it enters the stomach, you have to swish it around your mouth and especially let it get under the tongue (sublingual absorption), then swallow. Anyway, I had hardons all night and whacked off twice this morning! Woo hoo! I also woke up 5 pounds lighter than I usually do! 185 here I come!!!!!!!!!! :P Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drlove 37204 Report post Posted December 30, 2012 I bought a Vitamix about a month and a half ago, and it's made it so easy to get my daily fruit and vegetable intake that I was missing. I'm totally impressed with it so far, since it liquifies everything, including things like the skin, stem, seeds and the core which is where a lot of the nutrients lie. Admittedly, it's a bit more expensive than your average blender, but well worth the money IMHO. I use it almost every day... highly recommended.

I've had my vitamix over 5 years now and I couldn't live without it! I also have an easygreens sprouter so I have fresh sprouts almost every day as well.
