Man health questions... hormone levels
Most of the physical problems unique to men are
caused by imbalances in thir hormone levels, especially in the level
of testosterone. Produced in the testes and in the adrenal glands,
testosterone develops a man's muscles, deepens his voice and makes
him fertile. On the negative side, testosterone can also cause the
prostate to enlarge, and high testosterone levels have been blamed
for overaggressive behavior.
Baldness
It's not easy for a man to go bald. Hair and lots
of it - is an age-old symbol of virility. Many men think that they
look better with a full head of hair than without. The truth is
that there is no cure for baldness-the best such products can do
is to slow the loss of any remaining hair.
Man health questions... healthy hair
Healthy hair grows in a cyclical pattern; a strand
of hair grows for a while, then it falls out and its root takes
a rest before sprouting again. Balding occurs when hair roots never
"wake up" again! This is the case with "male pattern
baldness," which is especially common when hair growth begins
to slow, around age 50 or 60. It is the male hormone testosterone,
helped along by certain genes, that encourages hair roots to shut
down. Herbs can help! Take herbs as a nutrients for your hair...

Although herbs will not bring hair back once it
is gone (there is no wonder cure), a few herbs do seem to slow hair
loss, especially aloe vera gel, nettle and rosemary. For centuries,
both men and women have massaged rosemary in olive oil into their
scalps to keep their hair healthy and lush. The massage itself serves
an important function: It stimulates circulation and encourages
hair roots to grow. Herbs such aloe vera not only is good
for hair, but also serves as protection against sun and wind for
a scalp that becomes exposed when hair begins to thin.
While it is difficult to know for sure that the
herbs are helping, all the men know who use them swear that they
can tell the difference. When you use any hair-growth treatment,
remember that the scalp is the most important area to address. Hair
itself is dead. Certain types of hair conditioners can make it look
a little thicker or smooth it down, but little else can be done.
The scalp, however, is very much alive and can respond to herbal
treatments.

Testosterone
Of course, testosterone, genes and poor circulation
are not the only factors that cause men to lose their locks. Unlike
the man who sprouts it, the body considers hair one of its least
important assets. It is one of the first things to go when a serious
illness, nervous-system disease or advancing years demand their
share of limited nutrients. Some drug treatments, especially ones
for arthritis, gout, depression, high blood pressure and heart problems,
can also shut down hair growth. So can radiation therapy and the
various scalp problems that fall under the umbrella of dermatitis.
If you think that any of these could be causing your baldness, choose
herbs to help treat the specific condition.

Shoulders pains
The shoulder is the most mobile joint in the human body. The joint
includes four tendons. The purpose of a tendon is to hold muscle
to bone. Together, these four "rotator cuff" tendons stabilize
the upper arm bone to the shoulder socket and allow a wide range
of motion in the shoulder.
Any swelling, inflammation, tearing, or bony changes around these
tendons causes pain when a person tries to move the arm above the
head, behind the back, or straight out in front...click
