YOUR MARILAL HEALTH/THE SUPER SEX RESPONSE MODEL: DESIRE

Monday, May 18th, 2009

DESIRE: This term refers to frequency of sexual interaction. It does not mean “wanting” sex, only how many times you and your spouse are sexually intimate. With this use of the word “desire,” a systems orientation is necessary because it refers to interaction, not a drive state. “Low” desire and “high” desire are relative terms indicating a couple’s report of how often they are sexual together. You will understand more about this way of using the word “desire” by learning about the other nine phases of sexual response.

“You have absolutely no desire,” said the wife. “You have sex but you don’t really want it.”

“Well, you want it, you have desire,” responded the husband, “but you don’t really have it, you don’t enjoy it.”

You can see the danger in “assigning” sexual motives. I have found it helpful to use desire simply and directly as a number, a count that means nothing but number and certainly is not a symptom of the presence or absence of sexual interest or arousal.

THE JOY OF PERFECT HEALTH: VIRUSES

Monday, May 18th, 2009

With regard to viruses, most of the “facts” made available to the general public are simply not true. Viruses are not alive. This is official. They cannot move, do not have any metabolism, cannot multiply and do not have any attribute whatsoever associated with living organisms. They are simply very complex organic compounds (nucleic acids), created and modified as a result of the activity of surrounding living cells. Some of the above compounds (viruses) could be quite toxic. Bacteria can use viruses as food. Our cells use and produce viruses in the metabolic process.

The above facts indicate, that ever-present viruses and living bacteria in our body are in perfect symbiosis with it in a healthy state (the fact widely accepted by medical science) and therefore they are not the cause of disease.

When we are healthy, there is hardly any food for bacteria in our body, except in the intestines. Bacteria live there happily, helping us greatly to break down and absorb complex food as well as to dispose toxins. If our diet is healthy, we have only “friendly” bacteria, which are perfectly adapted to feed on and break down such food for us.

All bacteria are under the strict control of our mind-body system. Medicine says that our “immune system” is functioning properly.

However, when our body becomes damaged, poisoned, overloaded with toxins, it makes an effort to dispose of and/or break down dead matter and toxic deposits, wherever they may be accumulated. Modern medicine knows very well which toxins are accumulated in which organ. For example benzene goes directly and accumulates in the thymus gland. Bacteria from the intestines are allowed to enter the bloodstream and are transported to the disposal site. Very quickly these bacteria adapt to the local conditions. The bacteria most adequate to these conditions is created and the toxic/dead organic matter is transformed by it, hopefully for easier disposal by the body.

When the toxic sites are large, the population of bacteria explodes. Different types of bacteria will be adapted to the current condition in this part of the body. Bacteria in large amounts may create additional toxins which usually do not help us and cause certain symptoms, enabling us sometimes to identify their type. In this scenario, bacteria are not the cause of the disease, but they simply take advantage of any initial pre-existing toxic state in our body. Killing bacteria with antibiotics sometimes gives relief, because you give your body more time to restore the balance, reducing the rate at which toxins are neutralised and excreted.

Medicine has already tried the concept of sterile (bacteria free) body. It was shown beyond doubt, that it does not lead to a good health at all.

In view of the above, the statement that viruses or bacteria cause disease is therefore no more accurate, than saying that flies cause garbage.)
