Masturbation prevents Prostate Cancer
This article made me laugh in a while, but what it says may be true. Some say that masturbation is a bad thing to do. But this article made me think that it is a good thing, well scientifically speaking. It is said that carcinogens builds up and causes cancer if a person does not ejaculate regularly. Well, just read this article to have a better view of what I am saying.

Frequent masturbation may help men cut their risk of contracting prostate cancer, Australian researchers have found. It is believed that carcinogens may build up in the prostate if men do not ejaculate regularly, BBC News reported on Wednesday. The researchers surveyed more than 1,000 men who had developed prostate cancer, and 1,250 men who had not. They found that men who had ejaculated the most between the ages of 20 and 50 were the least likely to get cancer. Men who ejaculated more than five times each week were a third less likely to develop prostate cancer.
Sexual intercourse may not have the same effect because of the higher risk of contracting a sexually transmitted disease, which could in turn raise the risk of cancer. “Had we been able to remove ejaculations associated with sexual intercourse, there should have been an even stronger protective effect of ejaculations,” Graham Giles of the Cancer Council Victoria, who led the researchers, said in the article.
The prostate produces a fluid that is incorporated into ejaculation, which activates sperm and prevents them from sticking together. Studies on animals have shown that carcinogens like 3-methylchloranthrene can be harbored in the prostate. Frequent ejaculation encourages the cancer-inducing fluids to “flush out.”

To Eat or Not to Eat
I got this from Yahoo, saying that some foods from a fast food chain would give you less calories compared to others. More of, its a matter of choosing the right food from the right fast food chain. To have a better view of what I’m saying, just read this article.
”
Take, for example, America’s two most famous burgers: the Whopper with Cheese and the Big Mac. A fair fight, right? Well, if you go for the Arch alternative, you’ll save 220 calories over the BK Behemoth. (A Big Mac has 540 calories and 29 grams of fat, compared to the Whopper’s 760 calories and 47 grams of fat!)
Use that strategy for every burger you eat in 2008, and you’ll save 22,000 calories - the equivalent of almost six pounds of body fat. You don’t have to (nor should you) live on Big Macs; pick an even leaner burger and save even more.
See, the way you pick your favorite fixes - from burgers to banana splits - could help you make the transition from chubby to chiseled. In researching our new book Eat This, Not That!, we found that the most effective weight-loss strategy doesn’t require you to abandon the foods you love, but simply to make better choices when selecting them.
Supplement that approach with plenty of fresh produce and lean protein throughout the week, and you’ll trade failed diets and wild weight fluctuations for healthy eating patterns and a lean, new you. And once you learn how it’s done, you can stay that way forever. Who wouldn’t make that swap?”
For example:
“Beer
Drink This:
Guinness Draught
125 calories
10 g carbohydrates
Not That!
Sierra Nevada Pale Ale
175 calories
15 g carbohydrates
Save 50 calories a beer!
Surprised? Most people think of Guinness as a beer milkshake: dark, thick, and rich enough to inspire guilt at first sip. But switch out a six-pack a week and you’ve just saved yourself more than four pounds this year. Extend those savings even further with Beck’s Premier Light: At 64 calories a bottle, it doesn’t get any lighter than this.
Doughnut
Eat This:
Dunkin’ Donuts Glazed Donut
230 calories
10 g fat
12 g sugars
Not That!
Dunkin’ Donuts Glazed Cake Donut
330 calories
18 g fat
18 g sugars
Save 100 calories and 8 grams of fat!
Both are cloaked in sugar, but their original doughnuts are light and airy because they’re made with yeast, and cake donuts are heavy and dense because they’re made with cake batter. Remember: Cake is not a breakfast food. ”
So it really is a matter of choice.

Finally, I got my own blog. But still, this website of mine is still undergoing some improvements for it to look better and be reader friendly. Soon, it will be done. Just a couple of tweaks here and there.
