Introduction

Strongyloides infection is a worm infection caused by a roundworm named strongyloides stercoralis. It is a parasitic roundworm which causes this disease. The patient often does not show any symptoms or asymptomatic. This infection is commonly found in hot and moist areas or areas associated with agricultural or improper hygiene activity. This condition is generally managed by maintaining proper hygiene. This infection spreads mainly by contaminated soil and water. Children are more prone to this disease because of a lack of knowledge about hygiene. It can affect our digestive system badly on prolonged infection periods and also leads to immunodeficiency.

Healthy Sexual Life

Introduction

There are many couple now a days who find it difficulty to talk about Sex even under good environment. Whenever any Sexual problem occurs either the partner feels ashamed, hurt or there is a feeling of guilt which should not occur in any of the patients. There are many reasons why people suffer from suppressed sexual urges due to health conditions like weakness, obesity, diabetes and many more.

Ayurvedic Tips To Maintain Sexual Life

It is important to know what is the underlying cause that is stopping the urge and making the sexual life unpleasurable. This includes causes like lack of stamina, stressed life, depression, excessive alcohol intake, weight gain, reduced physical activity, not taking proper nutrition or not taking enough sleep. There can also be some neurological or hormonal condition resulting in reduced sexual life.

According to Ayurveda it is important to maintain the Dosha like if you are kapha with a strong body with a stable mind then you are able to have healthy sexual intercourse. If you are particularly Vata with less fat and less muscular than you have nervous temperament as well as sensitivity too in order to save the ojas. For Pitta type people it is always in the moderate form. Pitta people are not sensitive as Vata and not heart as the kapha people. Here are some ways that will help you in maintaining the healthy sex life including

1. Eat in Order to Love

If you want a strong libido then you need to add smoothies and salads into your diet. It is scientifically proven that you are able to burn 300 calories each time when you perform sexual intercourse. So, eating spinach or lettuce is not going to help it. Instead, you include foods that are good cooked in high quality oils like clarified butter, olive oil or coconut oil. Avoid eating raw foods as it may cause drying and will reduce your vital juices as well. Try to drink milk that is spiced up with turmeric, cardamom and other species. Spiced milk is one of the best drinks to make your life healthy as well.

2. Connect with Your Partner

The sex life is not only based on lust it’s also based on trust as well as connection. In order to maintain it you should express your feelings to the partner and should talk about your ons and offs. It is important to grow together as a couple and it is better to perform meditation in the morning with some herbal tea. It is better to hold hands with each other or say some sweet thing to each other in order to make the relationship full of love. As written in the Fundamentals of Ayurveda, Vasant Lad says that when both the partners trust each other and, in that relationship, they are able to make love with awareness.

3. Yoga

It is very important to build your ojas in order to make your sex life fulfilling. So, to support your reproductive system and libido you should focus more on the grounding yoga poses like squats, seated twists, prone backbends and standing lunges. Perform Nadi Shodhana which is the Alternate Nostril breath method helping you to relax the body. It is even better if you perform yoga with your partner and this will help in building trust as well as bond.

4. Use Oils

It is better to include Oil in the diet and using coconut oil as a natural lubricant is better. As the commercial lube contains chemicals that can interrupt in your sex life. Giving each other a foot massage and oil massages can help in building the ojas which will help in protecting the body from illness. Men’s reproductive systems are cool by nature and Women reproductive systems are hot. Coconut oil works for both the partners and it’s better to avoid sesame oil because they have a heating effect.
