1. Let’s say it’s 7.25pm and you’re going home (alone of
course) after an unusually hard day on the job.
2. You’re really tired, upset and frustrated.
3. Suddenly you start experiencing severe pain in your chest
that starts to drag out into your arm and up in to your jaw.
You are only about five miles from the hospital nearest your
home.
4. Unfortunately you don’t know if you’ll be able to make it
that far.
5. You have been trained in CPR, but the guy that taught the
course did not tell you how to perform it on yourself.
6. HOW TO SURVIVE A HEART ATTACK WHEN ALONE
Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack,
without help, the person whose heart is beating improperly
and who begins to feel faint, has only about 10 seconds left
before losing consciousness.
7. However, these victims can help themselves by coughing
repeatedly and very vigorously. A deep breath should be taken
before each cough, and the cough must be deep and prolonged,
as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest.
A breath and a cough must be repeated about every two
seconds without let-up until help arrives, or until the heart
is felt to be beating normally again.
8. Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and coughing
movements squeeze the heart and keep the blood circulating.
The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain
normal rhythm. In this way, heart attack victims can get to a
hospital.
9. Tell as many other people as possible about this. It could
save their lives!!
10. A cardiologist says If everyone who gets this mail
Kindly sends it to 10 people, you can bet that we’ll save at
least one life.
11. Rather than sending jokes please..contribute by
forwarding this mail which can save a person’s life….
12. If this message comes around you ……more than
once…..please don’t get irritated……U need to be n happy
that you are being reminded of how to tackle…Heart
Attacks… AGAIN…

DOES ALCOHOL INTAKE AFFECTS FERTILITY??

Alot of People just engage in certain habits for the fun of it without really considering its sight effects; after reading this article; maybe you will have a change of heart, I pray you do.

HEALTH TIPS #6
Does alcohol intake really affect fertility? How much alcohol is safe for me? What are the effects of alcohol on the growing fetus during pregnancy? WHAT, HOW, WHICH, WHEN??? Your questions will get answers now.

NOW READ BELOW...

Alcohol as we all know is harmful to the body when taken in large quantities. Its adverse effects may be seen immediately after consumption of large volume or chronic adverse effects that manifest years after prolong and consistent consumption of alcohol. To answer the question above, the answer is a Capital ‘YES’, alcohol does affect you in person & disrupts fertility in a wider angle and this affects both men and women respectively. For conception to take place, both partners must be fertile. Alcohol leads to infertility by reducing the concentration of circulating sexual hormones (hypogonadism). In this article we will look at the
various ways alcohol affects fertility in men and in women.

ALCOHOL & FEMALE FERTILITY:
Several studies carried out have shown that woman who drink heavily have decreased fertility from higher rates of ovulation failure, disorders of menstruation and the suppression of female reproductive hormones that modulates the ovarian cycle. Excessive
alcohol consumption damages the liver causing and alteration in receptors needed to activate/metabolize the female reproductive hormones. These receptors are also found in the ovaries and there are responsible for
the stimulation of the ovaries for ovulation to take place. It is also
important to note that alcohol does not only affect the ability to conceive in women, it also increases the risk of
spontaneous miscarriages, preterm labour, low birth weight babies, premature separation of the placenta from the uterus, intrauterine fetal death, birth defects and fetal alcohol syndrome. Alcohol via different mechanisms affects fertility in females. In addition to the disruption in receptors and hormonal deregulation, excessive alcohol intake affects nutritional status. Chronic alcoholics have lower levels of folate, vitamin B, vitamin E, and other essential micro-nutrients like zinc, magnesium needed for the proper functioning of the menstrual cycle.

LADIES! STAY CLEAR OF ALCOHOL, IT IS DANGEROUS TO YOUR HEALTH & FOETUS***


ALCOHOL & MEN FERTILITY:
As earlier mentioned, both partners have a role to play in fertility. Sperms are produced by the testis by direct stimulation from the testosterone secreted by the pituitary gland in the brain. Excessive alcohol
consumption disrupts the effect of testosterone on the testis from increase metabolism by the liver and desensitization of the testes to the testosterone. In addition to this, excessive alcohol intake will also lead to anxiety, brain malfunctions, indulging in destructive habits like molestation, rape & the likes etc, depression, erectile dysfunction etc. For the production of healthy sperm cells, adequate nutrition is essential. Nutrients e.g. folate, molybdenum, zinc, vitamins and magnesium obtained from nutrition which is severely impaired in men who drink alcohol leads to the production of unhealthy and defective sperms. Alcohol reduces sperm count, increases the number of defective
sperms, and decreases the motility of sperm cells/their ability to swim in the female reproductive tract to fertilize the ovum.

Waiting until when you are trying to conceive before giving up on alcohol may not be the best because of the damage it may have already caused on your reproductive system. To this end, As a general rule, it is advised to you take 0% of alcohol or no alcohol at all to reduce possible adverse effects associated with chronic alcoholism.

**MEN, EXCESSIVE ALCOHOL INTAKE WILL KILL YOU QUICKLY, ABSTAIN PLEASE!!!
