FROM THE HEART: A
note from Jay & Roshmi
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello ,
Today's article is not an article at all. It
is an appeal to you for HELP!
Roshmi & I had a very clear perception of what
we were setting out to accomplish when we decided to launch
Young Again Forever. We were going to reveal a secret to everyone
who had a genuine interest in continuing to look and feel youthful
throughout their "Golden Years".
We had stumbled onto a little known Tibetan technique
that originated in a monastery in Tibet, that was rumoured among
locals in India to restore ones youthful appearance and energy.
Sceptical as always, we decided to give it a try.
The results within 3 months elicited so many excited
responses from friends and acquaintances that we decided to
create a video that demonstrated the technique.
And that's how Young Again Forever was born.
As Roshmi & I have always been interested in
maintaining excellent health by using natural products and techniques
as much as possible, we have subscribed to different reputable
natural health newsletters over the years.
So we decided to publish selected health information,
that had been proven by clinical studies to be effective, for
our readers.
So, 'To Your Health, Letter' was conceived. We
spend a lot of time researching health information and products,
and there is sooooo much information on such a vast number of
health topics. Now, here's where we would like your help. We'd
like YOU to tell us what you want to read; which are the areas
that will be of interest to YOU?
We have also been approached by reputable established
companies to offer their natural products to you. So, tell us
what is YOUR particular area of interest in Natural Health?
What kind of product information would YOU find useful?
Let us know at jay@youngagainforever.com so we
can select the information and products as per your requirement.
After all, this is your newsletter and is intended to bring
you topics and opportunities that will benefit you.
So please be an active participant in this project
to streamline your newsletter. Become a co-editor!
We look forward to hearing from you.
Enjoy the newsletter. With your help, it will
become even more useful to you, and to all our other readers.
Be well & happy.

FEATURE ARTICLE : DUMP VIAGRA
START EXERCISE
by : Jay Chatterjee & Roshmi Raychaudhuri
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Since its discovery, Viagra has been the stock
remedy for all manner of libido related ills, from total loss
of ability to intermittent and temporary problems with 'getting
a raise'!
In such a scenario, the cause of the problem
may arise (!!) from an area of the body quite far removed ---
from the heart, or the brain. And those on medication would
do well to remember that mixing nitrates, the popular medication
for many heart problems, with viagra can cause extreme drop
in blood pressure leading to cardio- circulatory shock. In fact,
the cocktail can prove lethal.
The good news is that sexual dysfunction may not
be as untreatable as doctors previously thought. Recently, a
group of Italian researchers found that there is one safe treatment
for the problem: regular exercise.
The high level of stimulation suggested by the
phrase 'blood coursing through the veins', does have physical
manifestations to support it. Men as well as women require good
blood flow to the genitals for arousal and erections. And can
there be anything better or more effective than exercise to
keep the blood circulating?
In an another large, long-term study, researchers
found that men who burned at least 200 calories a day through
exercise were less likely to become impotent, than men who were
inactive.
Researchers monitored the lifestyle of nearly
600 men, who initially had no problems with impotence, over
a period of 9 years. Examining a variety of lifestyle factors
believed to contribute to impotence, eg smoking, heavy drinking,
inactivity and obesity they found that men who had been active
to begin with, as well as those who took up exercise during
the study period, were at lower risk of experiencing impotence.
Occasional impotence is normal. At some point
in his life, every man will experience difficulty, sometimes
temporary, in achieving and maintaining an erection. But persistent,
long-term difficulty may be indicative of a physical cause,
and should prompt you to seek medical advice.
In fact, impotence can be an early warning sign
of coronary artery disease, since the penis is more sensitive
to slow-downs in blood flow than is the heart. (Doppler ultrasound
scanning is an imaging technique which can now be used to measure
blood flow to the penis).
But, men take heart! Exercise may protect you
from impotence the same way it can prevent heart attacks; by
keeping your blood vessels clear.
Just 30 minutes a day of moderate aerobic activity,
such as walking or stair climbing, accumulated in short bursts,
can do the trick. The American Heart Association also recommends
weight training or trying proven stress-busters such as yoga
and tai chi, which are increasingly used in cardiac rehabilitation.
A study on the effects of bicycling, found that 40 minutes of
bicycling 3 times a week increased sexual functioning by 76%.
Keeping your arteries clear may well be the way
to rock solid erections. So another aspect of a good sex regimen
(& to ward off impotence) is proper diet. This would involve
eating lots of fruits and vegetables, grains and legumes. Stick
to a low calorie diet, getting not more than 20% of your total
calories from fat. To quote Julie Walsh, MRSD, spokeswoman for
the American Dietetic Association, " A diet that's healthy for
you overall will be healthy for your sex life - period".
The effectiveness of so called aphrodisiac foods
is yet to be confirmed. But if, like us, you are fond of oysters
and asparagus, go ahead, they are low in calories and can put
you in the right frame of mind.
Impotence can also occur as a side effect of
drugs, including anti-depressants, so avoid taking medications
without consulting a doctor.
Men who do all of the above things and still have
problems with impotence, should consult a competent naturally-oriented
physician, to investigate other possible causes. Strangely,
only 1 out of 10 people affected actually do so. Impotence,
is after all, more of a symptom that needs to be treated than
a disease in itself!
Impotence affects about a quarter of men by the
age of 65, and there is no cure. So the most important thing
we can do is to PREVENT it!
Unfortunately, not only does impotence have physical
manifestations, it can have a depressing effect on male psyche,
striking as it does at the intrinsic 'manhood' of the male.
This tendency towards depression, too, can be countered by the
proven mood enhancing effects of exercise.
After a study of 156 severely depressed men and
women over 50, Duke University researchers suggested that 16
weeks of aerobic exercise may be as effective in alleviating
depression as a 16-week regimen of antidepressant drugs.
Exercise provides a balancing effect also on another
area which may negatively impact on sexual performance - the
mind. In many cases, impotence is the result of psychological
causes rather than physical ones. In such cases, the relaxing
and tension-freeing properties of exercise will contribute to
the more conducive state of mind that is essential for good
sexual performance.
Exercise, follow a good diet, keep yourself tension
free. These simple steps will not only ward off possible impotence,
but also improve your health in every way.
And if you are already experiencing some symptoms,
remember that in most cases the causes can be treated. And if
not, all manner of physical aids are now available to help achieve
and maintain an erection.
All said and done, the outlook for impotence
is good.

***** STAY SHARP THERAPY
STEP 1 *****
Nutrition,
cognitive stimulation and exercise are
the 3 steps to stop or slow age-related deterioration .
STEP 1: NUTRITION
Cooking at more than 200 degrees
Centigrade kills nutritional content of foods, so
stick to steaming, boiling and baking,
which are the acceptable forms of cooking!
Sounds boring & tasteless? Think again!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LITTLE ACTIONS THAT PRODUCE
BIG RESULTS: Give up Glucose
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The easiest way to reduce body fat is to eliminate
Glucose, your primary energy source,
and have your body reach into your fat deposits for energy.
Glucose, is found in some fruits and vegetables,
but comes mainly from metabolism
of the foods we eat, which are turned into glucose.
Are there any sugars that are classified as "good"?
Yes! Blackstrap molasses and raw, unfiltered honey and date
sugar. These contain the enzymes and trace elements that
make them health-promoting foods. However, even these should
be used in moderation,
(or not at all, when trying to reduce body fat).
In addition, there may be other reasons for being overweight, that you
are possibly unaware of, such as over processed food, food sensitivity
or a clogged liver.

***** ARTHRITIS? BE WARNED
*****
In
the USA 16,500 people die every year from drugs
prescribed for Arthritic pain and inflammation.
In Britain the number is around 2000 deaths every year.
These NSAIDs, (non-steroidal, anti-inflammatory drugs),
which include ibuprofen and aspirin, kill pain effectively,
but irritate the stomach lining in some patients, causing
ulcers and bleeding. Severe cases may lead to death!
DO NOT BECOME A STATISTIC.

cartilage, even as it acts on the cause of the disease.

REVIEW OF THE ENVIRONMENT:
CONCERNED
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How's this for funny?.. .. reader Elora submitted
this knee-slapper:
A man is concerned that his wife is losing her
hearing so he asks his doctor for advice. He jots down the advice
and heads for home where he finds his wife cooking in the kitchen.
After re-reading the doc's advice, he stands 10 feet behind
his hard-at-work wife and asks,
"Honey, what's for dinner?"
There's no reply. So he moves to 8 feet behind
her and asks again,
"Honey, what's for dinner?"
Still no reply. He moves 5 feet behind her and
again asks,
"Honey, what's for dinner?"
And STILL no reply. So he steps right behind her
and asks,
"Honey, what's for dinner?"
In a flash his wife turns around, smacks him on
the head with a big wooden spoon and shouts, "FOR THE FOURTH
TIME... WE'RE HAVING CHICKEN!!!"

From our Readers:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello Jay,
Thank you for the follow-up emails. It certainly
does motivate me to be faithful.
I am 80 but in reasonably good condition. I had
started doing the Movements a few weeks before receiving the
video from you and am a little shy of two months into it.
It is a bit of an effort still but am finding
it much easier to do. Movement #2 is the hardest for me and
11 is all I can do. I do 15 of #3 and 13 of #4 and #5. I usually
take a mile walk afterwards.
Have only missed doing it one time. My golf seems
to have improved too. Wouldn't it be something if it continued
to do that?
Again, even though I had the paperback edition
of the course I have found your video and
follow-up emails well worth the $50.

Feature Article: THE ROSE
Contributed by Surendra
Tapuriah
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The first day of school our professor introduced
himself and Challenged us to get to know someone we didn't already
know. I stood up to look around when a gentle hand touched my
shoulder. I turned around to find a wrinkled, little old lady
beaming up at me with a smile that lit up her entire being.
She said, "Hi handsome. My name is Rose. I'm eighty-seven
years old. Can I give you a hug?" I laughed and enthusiastically
responded, "Of course you may!" and she gave me a giant squeeze.
"Why are you in college at such a young, innocent
age?" I asked. She jokingly replied, "I'm here to meet a rich
husband, get married, have a couple of kids..
" "No seriously," I asked. I was curious what
may have motivated her to be taking on this challenge at her
age.
"I always dreamed of having a college education
and now I'm getting one!" she told me. After class we walked
to the student union building and shared a chocolate milkshake.
We became instant friends. Every day for the next three months
we would leave class together and talk nonstop.
I was always mesmerized listening to this "time
machine" as she shared her wisdom and experience with me.
Over the course of the year, Rose became a campus
icon and she easily made friends wherever she went. She loved
to dress up and she reveled in the attention bestowed upon her
from the other students.
She was living it up. At the end of the semester
we invited Rose to speak at our Football banquet. I'll never
forget what she taught us. She was introduced and stepped up
to the podium. As she began to deliver her prepared speech,
she dropped her three by five cards on the floor.
Frustrated and a little embarrassed she leaned
into the microphone and simply said, "I'm sorry I'm so jittery.
I gave up beer for Lent and this whiskey is killing me! I'll
never get my speech back in order so let me just tell you what
I know."
As we laughed she cleared her throat and began,
"We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because
we stop playing.
There are only four secrets to staying young,
being happy, and achieving success. You have to laugh and find
humor every day. You've got to have a dream. When you lose your
dreams, you die. We have so many people walking around who are
dead and don't even know it!
There is a huge difference between Growing older
and growing up. If you are nineteen years old and lie in bed
for one full year and don't do one productive thing, you will
turn twenty years old. If I am eighty-seven years old and stay
in bed for a year and never do anything I will turn eightyeight.
Anybody can grow older. That doesn't take any
talent or ability. The idea is to grow up by always finding
the opportunity in change. Have no regrets. The elderly usually
don't have regrets for what we did, but rather for things we
did not do. The only people who fear death are those with regrets."
She concluded her speech by courageously singing
"The Rose." She challenged each of us to study the lyrics and
live them out in our daily lives.
At the year's end Rose finished the college degree
she had begun all those years ago. One week after graduation
Rose died peacefully in her sleep. Over two thousand college
students attended her funeral in tribute to the wonderful woman
who taught by example that it's never too late to be all you
can possibly be.
When you finish reading this, please send this
peaceful word of advice to your friends and family, they'll
really enjoy it! These words have been passed along in loving
memory of ROSE.
REMEMBER, GROWING OLDER IS MANDATORY. GROWING
UP IS OPTIONAL.
We make a Living by what we get, We make a Life
by what we give. God promises a safe landing, not a calm passage.
If God brings you to it--He will bring you through it.

GUEST COLUMN: by
Kathleen Dohoney
IS FLYING A PAIN IN THE
EAR ?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You're on a flight that's about to land, and
you begin to feel as though twin elephants are sitting on your
eardrums. Or you're driving to a ski resort, and your ears begin
to snap, crackle and pop like breakfast cereal. Or you're at
the top of a mountain and you realize you can't hear a thing.
What's behind the discomfort is excess pressure
in the middle ear, the air-filled chamber behind the eardrum
that includes your three "hearing'' bones. The middle ear is
connected with the upper part of the throat by the Eustachian
tube. The tube's job is to equalize air pressure in the middle
ear. With every swallow or yawn, it opens.
During airplane travel, the ears are subjected
to large swings in barometric pressure. The discomfort can feel
especially nasty on descent, when the Eustachian tube may be
squeezed closed as a result of the vacuum-like pressure. The
eardrum is stretched inward, impairing hearing and causing pain.
If you're congested from a cold or allergies,
you may have even bigger problems. "If your Eustachian tube
is blocked from congestion, allergy or whatever reason and air
can't get in or out, you get a pressure change, and that causes
pain,'' says Sig Soli, head of the department of human communication
sciences and devices at House Ear Institute, a leading research
and clinical center in Los Angeles.
Worst-case scenario? All that pressure could burst
the eardrum, he says. Dr. John House, president of the institute
and a physician who treats ear, nose and throat disorders, offers
this simple guideline: "If you can't clear your ears on the
ground, you should stay at sea level.''
But Soli and House know many congested travelers
won't or can't heed those words. If you must fly or you have
a problem with your ears at altitude, take some simple precautions
and pack some ear first-aid treatments.
With a doctor's approval, adults can take a decongestant.
"If it's a short flight, take the decongestant before leaving,''
House says.
If it's a long flight, eight hours or so, you
might take it an hour or so before the scheduled landing. "People
usually have more trouble with the landing than the takeoff,''
House says. You also can use nasal spray.
Choose your decongestants according to whether
you want to sleep, advises Harold Washington Jr., manager of
Bevans Pharmacy in Los Angeles and past president of the California
Pharmacists Association. Among the over-the-counter options
he recommends are Actifed and Sudafed. "If you want to sleep
on the flight, Actifed will make you more drowsy than Sudafed,''
he says.
Whichever decongestant you choose, take it an
hour before boarding, Washington suggests. Don't take a decongestant
that will make you drowsy if you plan to drive. Soli says devices
called Earplanes, which House Institute scientists helped develop,
are worth trying.
They're available over the counter in adult and
child sizes for about $5.50 a pair and can be used twice before
they're discarded. In the center is a filter that allows air
to flow through slowly, helping regulate air pressure naturally.
The devices can be worn for the entire flight or inserted upon
boarding and reinserted before descent.
If you still feel pressure in your ears on descent,
experts recommend the Valsalva maneuver: Hold your nose and
blow out gently to equalize the pressure. If you hear your ears
popping, "it means your ears are equalizing the pressure," and
that's a good thing, House says. (Be sure to blow gently and
stop when you hear the popping sound.)
If your ears stay clogged after a flight or other
trip to a high altitude and won't clear within a day, see a
doctor to rule out barotrauma, caused by the changes in pressure.
"We sometimes see blood in the middle ear,'' House says of some
of his patients with barotrauma. "They actually bleed into the
middle ear from the pressure."
Treatment options for barotrauma include decongestants,
corticosteroid medicines or making a tiny incision in the eardrum.
The incision, called a myringotomy, is done in adults with the
help of a topical anesthetic, House says. It allows backed-up
fluid to clear out of the middle ear. The incision usually closes
within a few days.
The Eustachian tube functions better in adults
than in children, so if you're taking young ones to a high altitude,
pay special attention to them.

Sitting on our butts.
staring at the computer screen
isn't going to do much for our health! And yet, for
some of us, it is unavoidable. Utilize download time
to do the following simple shape up maneuvers.
a). Grip the arms of your chair and push your butt
off the seat of the chair. Hold this position to a count
of 20 and relax. Do this several times. To start, you
can rest your feet on the floor for support.
This exercise has a terrific effect on the upper arms,
an area which can show up flab in the most toned bodies.
b). Stretch both legs straight out, parallel to the floor,
pointing your toes downwards, till you feel a gentle
stretch on your calves. Hold to the count of 25,
and release. Do this in sets of 5 whenever you can.
