Love is difficult to define. It is ah affection and liking, a desire to share and mental propinquity. While sex requires physical attraction and compatibility. Love is not ignored but the emphasis is largely on physical gratification. Love marriage at the height of passion is a risky matter because relationship based only on sex is almost certainly doomed in the long run.

While in a arranged marriage sex and love are likely to grow slowly but more harmoniously.

Actually speaking sex has been biologically evolved and love has been culturally evolved. Man can separate love and sex while woman finds herself unable to do so.

Why female does not generally get aroused by seeing a nude body of male?

Seeing bared body of female, mate is immediately aroused but the sight alone of his genitals does not inevitably cause her pulse to fasten. She is relatively calm in face of nude male body unless it implies to immediate love making because seeing children from the very beginning in nude form, it does not excite her.

Does verbal or written delineations of sexual situations also excite the male more than female?

Yes, the more realistically the female sexual parts are described the more directly is the male stimulation. Seeing, hearing, reading about sexually coloured objects or situations is enough to trigger the male but in female tactile mode of stimulation is needed.

Ideal difference is between 2 to 5 years according to one survey but even a bride of twenty who has chosen a male of thirty is not heading for an erotically desert in her middle and later years. The span of male sexual vitality has lengthened appreciably in past few decades. Chronical age difference has no meaning other than the emotional maturity, which each one brings to the marriage.

Food choices are one of the most individual parts of your life-style. Even family members who eat most meals together choose different amounts and different combinations of food. There is an almost unlimited variety of foods that fit into a heart-healthy diet.

Medical experts have identified certain nutrient components of food—fat cholesterol, sodium, and calories— that relate to heart disease. Your doctor will probably discuss with you individual recommendations, in terms such as grams of fat, milligrams of cholesterol and sodium, etc. Sometimes it is difficult to take the next step of translating these recommendations into everyday food choices. Registered dietitians are available to help you take the next step. Your doctor can refer you to one for help. This section briefly reviews some common recommendations and then helps you pull these facts together into an overall plan for eating more healthfully.

Unfortunately, many people get discouraged by nutrition advice because they mistakenly think that they cannot eat their favorite foods. A more positive and encouraging approach is to consider that no food is forbidden. Good health comes from eating a variety of foods—meats, dairy products, and especially vegetables, fruits, and grains—in moderate amounts. You may have to change some of your routine grocery purchases, some of your cooking methods, and the amounts of some foods you are accustomed to eating, but you do not have to take the enjoyment out of eating. In fact, you will probably discover some new tastes, and your new eating habits can lead to improvement in the way you look and feel.

The following section reviews the most common recommendations about fat, cholesterol, sodium, and calories. The recommendations form the basis for practical changes in food selections you can try in your own meals.

It was only twenty years later that questions arose about the possible side effects of oestrogen. The whole history of health and medicine demonstrates the wisdom of skepticism about any ‘wonder’ substance that hits the headlines. I am suspicious about anything that is claimed to cure such a wide range of symptoms. And what is so ‘natural’ about the idea of women taking progesterone? As explained, production of both oestrogen and progesterone decline at the menopause. And while we go on making some oestrogen all our lives the production of progesterone will stop completely. So are we seriously suggesting that nature has got this all wrong? At a time in our lives when both hormones are dropping and progesterone can be absent, why then should we be adding it back in? Progesterone is needed to maintain a pregnancy, so we can understand why the body doesn’t need it at the menopause. Why replace it?

What, actually, could be more unnatural than doctoring ourselves with progesterone, when Mother Nature has arranged for its removal from the body in the normal course of events? The thinking behind the growing popularity of progesterone therapy is as follows. As inhabitants of an industrialized world we are being constantly bombarded by xenoestrogens – substances which have an oestrogenic effect on the body. These xenoestrogens are nearly all petro-chemically based and can come from packaging, plastics, foods and pesticides. They have been found in formula baby milk, presumed to have originated from the packaging used to contain the milk. They are believed to have a devastating effect on fertility, reproduction and health for both humans and wildlife. A number of disturbing developments are increasingly blamed on these chemicals. In the West it is reckoned that men’s sperm count may have dropped by 50 per cent in the last ten years. Other studies have linked these chemicals to the increase in breast and testicular cancers and to endometriosis, a painful uterine disorder. This major environmental factor lies behind the theory of oestrogen dominance.

The suggestion is that many of us are suffering from oestrogen dominance because of the increased amount of xenoestrogens we encounter daily. So, the argument goes, the answer is to balance all this unwanted oestrogen with progesterone – natural progesterone. I believe that our lifestyles and our environment have a profound effect on our hormones. That is why we must take a lot of care over our nutrition, which has such an impact on the body’s biochemical processes. I don’t however believe that the answer is to introduce ever more hormones into our bodies. And the question we should ask is, just how ‘natural’ is progesterone anyway?
