			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Nolvadex is a branded name for <strong>Tamoxifen Citrate</strong>. Nolvadex is a <em>non-steroidal anti-estrogen</em>, belongs to prescriptions for treatment of breast cancer. In combination with other drugs, it is also applied in treatment of certain types of cancers. Nolvadex is also indicated for women with high risk of <strong>breast cancer</strong>. This medication is prescribed to reduce the risk of breast cancer developing for patients with Ductal carcinoma in situ. Nolvadex belongs to Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators group. The active component of Nolvadex is Tamoxifen Citrate affecting the estrogen receptors and blocking it from growing.<br />
Nolvadex helps to prevent gynecomastia, edema, and female-type fat distribution, in case if an estrogen level is too high. Sometimes, androgen level in blood is too low and it may lead to such effects. If you have been using exogenous steroids for a long time, it may cause depression of endogenous androgens.</p>
<p><span id="more-1154"></span><br />
This drug is supplied as non-steroidal antiestrogen pills administered orally. The drug is available in 10mg and <em>20mg pills</em>, containing 15.2mg and 30.4mg of Tamoxifen Citrate correspondingly.<br />
The drug can be taken irrespectively of food with a full glass of water. Follow the doctor&#8217;s recommendation during the treatment with Nolvadex. Do not exceed the prescribed dosage. Self-treatment is not recommended. A standard dose in treatment of breast cancer is 20-40mg.<br />
Nolvadex may cause certain side effects but they are confirmed to be rare. You may observe certain allergic reactions like breathing difficulty, hives, and swelling. Sometimes Nolvadex may cause the following serious adverse side effects: headache, sudden numbness, chest pain, coughing blood, irregular menstrual periods and unusual vaginal bleeding discharge, and vision and speech problems.<br />
For more detailed information about this medication, ask your doctor or pharmacist. To <a title="buy nolvadex without prescription" href="http://store.femalecare.net/item/nolvadex.html">buy nolvadex without prescription</a> visit our <a href="http://store.femalecare.net/">online drugstore</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Clomid</strong> releases the hormones required for ovulation. Generally, it is applied in treatment of female infertility. Clomid provides an ovulation, in the cases when female ovaries produce a follicle under hormonal stimulation deficiency conditions.  Navigating through the Internet, you have the possibility to find <em>Clomid without a prescription</em> at <a href=" http://store.femalecare.net/item/women_s_health/clomid.html">online pharmacies</a>.</p>
<p>Clomid affects the estrogen receptors in the hypophysis cerebri and ovaries. Taking Clomid provides binding the estrogen receptors to the hypophysis cerebri. While you on Clomid, follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone are developing and affecting the estrogens in the pituitary gland. However, Clomid is proved not to affect the estrogen level in blood.</p>
<p>Clomid is an effective antagonist inhibiting the estrogen receptors. Clomid helps the estrogen receptors in the pituitary gland to be bound selectively, and decreases the inhibition of the pituitary gland and hypothalamus, providing faster restoration of their functions.</p>
<p><span id="more-1142"></span></p>
<p>Clomid is recommended to be taken strictly under the doctor.s prescription. Clomid is typically indicated as one <strong>50mg pill</strong> once a day at bedtime, starting on the fifth day of the menstrual cycle, during five days. Each dose should be taken with a full glass of water after a meal. If the drug effect is not revealed, the doctor may increase a dosage up to 150mg.</p>
<p>Take care when driving, operating machinery, or involving into any unsafe activities. During treatment, in rare cases, Clomid may cause visual side-effects such as temporal blurred vision or other.</p>
<p>Self-treatment with Clomid is not allowed, first consult the doctor, especially if you suspect pregnancy, have thyroid or another endocrine disorder, uterine fibroids, liver disease, or experience unusual vaginal discharges or bleeding.</p>
<p>For additional and detailed information about Clomid, refer to your pharmacist.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of the most impressive natural agents that has been shown to combat aging, reduce risk of degenerative disease and help optimize health and well-being is the daily ingestion of ground flaxseed.</p>
<p>Flaxseeds are the richest source of a wondrous bioactive substance known as SLD (secoisolariciresinol diglycoside) that provides the body with a multitude of benefits. In fact, flaxseeds contain 800 times more SLD and related compounds (mammalian lignan precursors) than any other food on earth. Ingesting the equivalent of two heaping tablespoons of ground flaxseed (flaxseed powder) or approximately 40-50 gm of flaxseed is of great value in protecting female reproductive organs, and the male prostate gland from disease processes, keeping cholesterol within a safe range, supporting liver and gallbladder function, improving large bowel health, reversing fibrocystic breast disease, possibly supporting bone density and improving the texture and smoothness of the skin (an effect that almost everyone notices within the first few weeks of use). Here&#8217;s how and why flaxseed should be part of your daily wellness plan whether you are a woman or man.</p>
<h2><strong><span id="more-458"></span>Flaxseed and Breast Health</strong></h2>
<p>The SLD in flaxseeds are converted by large bowel bacteria into two estrogen-like substances known as enterolactone and enterodiol.</p>
<p>Enterolactone and enterodiol are classified as phytoestrogens (plant-based estrogens), which means they can bind to estrogen receptors on breast tissue, the endometrium of the uterus and cells on the cervix, and tone down the over stimulation of the body&#8217;s more potent estrogens to these tissues. This is important because over stimulation of these tissues by the body&#8217;s estrogens (or hormone replacement therapy or the birth control pill) is linked to an increased risk of breast cancer, endometrial cancer and cancer of the cervix.<br />
The phytoestrogens derived from flaxseed are so effective at protecting a woman&#8217;s reproductive tissues from estrogen over stimulation that a recently published Toronto-based hospital study demonstrated that flaxseed supplementation greatly improved symptoms in women who suffered from cyclical mastalgia.<br />
Other studies have demonstrated that flaxseed supplementation can normalize estrogen production and reduce the build up of more cancer permissive estrogens (decrease synthesis of 16-alpha hydroxyestrone). Furthermore, flaxseed ingestion has been shown to directly slow down the breast cell division rate (antiproliferative), which is a factor in the prevention of breast cancer development. All indicators suggest that every adult woman (by age 16) should capitalize upon the benefits of flaxseed as it impacts the lifelong health of reproductive tissues.</p>
<h2><strong>Flaxseed and Prostate Health</strong></h2>
<p>The phytoestrogens derived from flaxseed helps to preserve prostate health in various ways. These phytoestrogens (enterolactone and enterodiol) block the over production of estrone hormone within fat cells. With weight gain, fat cells become larger and tend to manufacture more estrone hormone, which encourages prostate cells to synthesize more dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT, in turn, stimulates rapid cell division of prostate cells leading to prostate enlargement. DHT also promotes the growth of any existing prostate cancer cells. By age 50, 15 to 30 percent of men already have some cancer cells present within the prostate gland. Keeping DHT levels in check is considered to be an important step in preventing those cancer cells from dividing and spreading en masse throughout the prostate gland and metastasizing to other parts of the body. Thus, the ingestion of flaxseed on a daily basis provides important bioactive agents that indirectly slow the rate of prostate cell division, reducing the chances of prostate enlargement (benign prostatic hyperplasia) and hindering the promotion of cancer development. These same phytoestrogens also bind to receptors on the prostate gland helping to block the influence of other hormones, which may stimulate rapid prostate cell division. Other herbal compounds such as saw palmetto, pygeum africanum, soy isoflavonoids and beta-sitosterol can also block the build up of DHT and support prostate health. However, the daily ingestion of 50 gm of ground flaxseed each day should be included as a primary anti-aging, disease prevention strategy used by every adult male; as prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men and prostate enlargement problems will affect 80 percent of men if they live to old age.</p>
<h2><strong>Flaxseed and Cholesterol</strong></h2>
<p>Studies reveal that the same amount of flaxseed required to help maintain male and female reproductive tissue health (approximately 40-50 gm ground flaxseed) can also lower blood cholesterol by up to 10 percent in people with high cholesterol levels. More importantly, it lowers the bad cholesterol (LDL-cholesterol) by approximately 15 percent and concentrations of lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] by 7 percent. Lp(a) is now recognized as a significant risk factor for heart disease and flaxseed supplementation is the only known dietary intervention that can lower Lp(a) into a safer range if it is elevated. As it turns out, flaxseed contains soluble dietary fiber, which has proven cholesterol-lowering effects. All in all, daily flaxseed supplementation factors into a heart-healthy lifestyle program as well.</p>
<h2><strong>Flaxseed and Bowel Function</strong></h2>
<p>Flaxseed also contains insoluble dietary fiber, which acts as a bulking agent or roughage in the promotion of more regular bowel movements. Studies indicate that flaxseed supplementation provides a natural and gentle laxation effect, which is associated with relieving constipation, and promoting the health of the large bowel. Most people ingest less than half of the recommended amount of dietary fiber. By providing both soluble and insoluble dietary fiber, flaxseed is one of the few natural nutrition products that can help to keep cholesterol levels in check and maintain more optimal bowel function at the same time.</p>
<h2><strong>Flaxseed and Liver &amp; Gallbladder Support</strong></h2>
<p>The daily ingestion of ground flaxseed has been shown to improve the flow of bile from the liver to the gallbladder, and ultimately into the intestinal tract. This effect helps to reduce the chances of gallstone formation and related gallbladder disease. Essentially, flaxseed supplementation induces a type of liver flushing effect, preventing the stagnation of bile, which can harden into stones if not eliminated in a timely fashion. Flaxseed supplementation also helps to prevent the conversion of bile into cholesterol, further facilitating a cholesterol-lowering effect by this action in the liver.</p>
<h2><strong>Flaxseed and Your Skin</strong></h2>
<p>Although the mechanism of action remains a mystery, virtually everyone who begins using flaxseed supplementation on a daily basis comments on the improved texture and smoothness of their skin all over their body. This is an effect that is usually noticed within the first month of using flaxseed on a daily basis. For those of us who use it, this is a wonderful additional benefit to its other premiere health-enhancing attributes.</p>
<h2><strong>How to Use Flaxseed</strong></h2>
<p>You can purchase ground flaxseeds (often marketed as flaxseed powder) or you can grind whole flaxseeds in a coffee grinder on a daily basis to maximize freshness of the product. Make sure your flaxseeds or powder are from organic sources.</p>
<p>Studies reveal that ingesting 40-50 gm of ground flaxseed per day provides the health-promoting benefits reviewed in this article.</p>
<p>This is the equivalent of two heaping tablespoons of ground flaxseed (flaxseed powder).</p>
<p>It can be mixed into a protein shake or fruit juice (e.g., orange juice). Many people sprinkle it on to their cereal or mix it into a bowl of low-fat yogurt. It can also be baked into low-fat muffins or flax-bread. The important thing is that you consume at least 25 gm per day, but more ideally 40-50 gm through whatever delivery system works for you. The best news is that it has a nutty, flavorful taste that is very palatable and enjoyable.</p>
<p>Flaxseed is truly one of nature&#8217;s gifts that you should incorporate into a proactive, anti-aging, disease prevention lifestyle. I personally recommend that you use it on a daily basis throughout your life.</p>
