Erectile dysfunction is a sexual dysfunction characterized by the inability to develop or maintain an erection of the penis sufficient for satisfactory sexual performance. An erection occurs as a hydraulic effect due to blood entering and being retained in sponge-like bodies within the penis. The process is most often initiated as a result of sexual arousal, when signals are transmitted from the brain to nerves in the penis. Erectile dysfunction is indicated when an erection is difficult to produce. There are various circulatory causes, including alteration of the voltage-gated potassium channel as in the case of arsenic poisoning from drinking water. The most important organic causes are cardiovascular disease and diabetes, neurological problems (for example, trauma from prostatectomy surgery), hormonal insufficiencies (hypogonadism) and drug side effects. It is important to realize that erectile dysfunction can signal underlying risk for cardiovascular disease. Risk Factors A variety of risk factors can contribute to erectile dysfunction. They include: • Medical conditions, particularly diabetes or heart problems. • Using tobacco, which restricts blood flow to veins and arteries. Over time tobacco use can cause chronic health problems that lead to erectile dysfunction. • Being overweight, especially if you're very overweight (obese). • Certain medical treatments, such as prostate surgery or radiation treatment for cancer. • Injuries, particularly if they damage the ...
Knoflook behoort samen met uien, bieslook en prei tot de looksoorten. De bakermat van knoflook ligt in Kazachstan, Oezbekistan en Kirgizië. Daar komt de plant in het wild voor. De Zeeuwse kleigrond is geschikt voor knoflookteelt. De plant vergt wel veel van de bodem en daarom wordt een stuk grond maar eens in de zeven jaar voor knoflookteelt gebruikt. Zodra tweederde van de plant geel verkleurt kan de knoflook met loof en al worden gerooid. Als het bolomwindsel mooi wit is en vliezig aanvoelt, moeten de bollen nog nadrogen. Knoflook wordt niet gezaaid maar vegetatief vermeerderd: de tenen worden uitgeplant. Elke teen wordt weer een nieuwe bol knoflook. Je kunt ze in het najaar planten, maar ook in het voorjaar. papaver somniferum slaapbol blauwmaanzaad breadseed poppy opium poppy Papaver is de bron van opium en de chemische afgeleiden daarvan; morfine en heroïne. In Amerika en Europa zijn papaverzaden legaal, omdat ze geen van de alkaloïden bevatten die wel aanwezig zijn in de volgroeide papaverplant, zoals morfine, codeïne, papaverine, en thebaïne. Deze variant van het papaverzaad, Lilac single, is hetzelfde als maanzaad, dat vanwege de uitgesproken smaak vooral gebruikt wordt om brood en taart mee te decoreren. Papaver somniferum, ofwel de opium poppy plant, kan ongeveer 1 meter hoog worden. De plant groeide van oorsprong in Zuidoost-Europa en west-Azië, maar heeft zich verder over deze continenten verspreid, alwaar hij nu in het wild groeit, vaak als onkruid ...
