<p><span style="font-size:16px;"><strong><span style="color: rgb(47, 79, 79);"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>additional notes on this subject</em></span></span></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#2f4f4f;"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>I don&#39;t have any health issues, never been sick a day in my life at age 50, but I always take caution when &quot;experimenting&quot; with herbs, often when taking something new, taking a very small amount and making sure there are no adverse reactions. I&#39;m not scared of experimenting with new herbs, I&#39;m more scared of missing out on a herb that will keep me healthy and well for decades.</em></span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-16622" height="550" src="http://www.gaiahealthblog.com/wordpress1/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/denzel2.jpg" style="" title="denzel2" width="735" /></p>
<p><span style="color:#2f4f4f;"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>The only issue I have with some of the herbs and superfoods on this list is they can disrupt my sleep (with the exception of Maca, which seemed to help my sleep). However, I cannot just abandon my experimentation, because the overall health benefits seem to be too great. I found out that my number one entry on the list Vitamin D, can cause sleep issues if not accompanied by a Magnesium supplement, since Vitamin D depleted the body of Magnesium, which Magnesium depletions causes anxiety and insomnia, and most of us are Magnesium deficient anyway.</em></span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-17577" height="550" src="http://www.gaiahealthblog.com/wordpress1/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/tumblr_mdihhrvu0e1qcgj2fo1_1280.jpeg" style="border: 1px solid rgb(63, 48, 21);" title="tumblr_mdihhrvu0e1qcgj2fo1_1280" width="735" /></p>
<p><span style="color:#2f4f4f;"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>I am convinced I&#39;ll master the sleep thing and as I learn more, and of course I will keep my readers posted. But each man has to go through that process for himself. It&#39;s not like my sleep is &quot;horrible&quot; but I can wake up here and there, and I&#39;m spoiled by my perfect sleep. Hopefully, the Magnesium supplementation with Vitamin D will resolve everything, and because I think Vitamin D is IMPERATIVE for overall male health,&nbsp; I can&#39;t see myself not taking it the rest of my life. It&#39;s funny that 1000 IU of Vitamin D from Salmon helps me sleep like a rock though, but at times 400 IU from a supplement causes minor sleep issues. Could be the Salmon contains Magnesium in balance. The body is a strange machine.</em></span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#2f4f4f;"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>My married friend says he has no sleep issues at all, so probably a gazillion factors play into that.</em></span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#2f4f4f;"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>Every man has to learn his own biochemistry, and learn how to take herbs that work for you.</em></span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#2f4f4f;"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>I&#39;m not a big fan of taking anything that doesn&#39;t make me &quot;feel good&quot;. My body tells me what to take and what to stop taking</em></span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-10860" height="1000" src="http://www.gaiahealthblog.com/wordpress1/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/denzel-washington-gq-shoot-4.jpg" style="border: 1px solid rgb(63, 48, 21);" title="denzel-washington-gq-shoot-4" width="735" /></p>
<p><span style="color:#2f4f4f;"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>I&#39;m not a big fan of looking at this &quot;Male Enhancement&quot; as finding the right &quot;Pill to Pop&quot; to get an erection. I think it is more a rebalance of the body&#39;s biochemistry to a more youthful state.</em></span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#2f4f4f;"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>Most people don&#39;t know this, but Testosterone is not actually &quot;lost&quot; as we get older, but it gets bound in the bloodstream. Herbs can re-activate it naturally, hence comes the term &quot;free testosterone&quot;, which is the important measurement when taking a Testosterone blood test.</em></span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#2f4f4f;"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>If possible, I would recommend taking a Testosterone test to see what your levels are before supplementation, and then see where it is afterwards. However, I found the test hard to interpret, and you might have to get help from&nbsp; a doctor, or naturopath to interpret your results.</em></span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#2f4f4f;"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>Same goes for a Vitamin D test in that it is a valuable test to take. Easy to interpret though. </em></span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-16630" height="1000" src="http://www.gaiahealthblog.com/wordpress1/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/denzel_washington_gq_magazine_cover1.jpg" style="border: 1px solid rgb(63, 48, 21);" title="denzel_washington_gq_magazine_cover" width="735" /></p>
<p><span style="color:#2f4f4f;"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>In general, men who already have prostate issues should not experiment with testosterone and &quot;male enhancement&quot; herbs without knowing what they are doing.</em></span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#2f4f4f;"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>If a person is not having a well balanced nutritional diet, all this may be for naught.</em></span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#2f4f4f;"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em><strong>Penis shrinkage does not happen from natural testosterone boosters,</strong> it&#39;s the opposite concept as with external artificial steroids, Human Growth Hormones, and external synthetic Testosterone that the athletes are taking. Once you start &quot;juicing&quot;, and body starts getting synthetic testosterone from the outside, it will stop producing it on the inside, thus comes penis shrinkage from those synthetic drugs (refer to Barry Bonds&#39;s girlfriend&#39;s testimony at his trial).</em></span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-17597" height="1000" src="http://www.gaiahealthblog.com/wordpress1/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/denzel-11.jpg" style="border: 1px solid rgb(63, 48, 21);" title="denzel-1" width="735" /></p>
<p><span style="color:#2f4f4f;"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>As mentioned before, natural Male Enhancement herbs do not contain Testosterone, but work to naturally &quot;unlock&quot; the testosterone that is bound up within the body. Ain&#39;t no way I would take something to make my penis shrink, as I&#39;m sure is the same with most guys.</em></span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#2f4f4f;"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>Conceptually, natural male enhancers supposedly help one gain a little penis and testicle size, since the body is producing its own testosterone at full throttle. Not sure if that is true or not, I&#39;m not a &quot;grab a ruler&quot; kinda guy. I&#39;m in the middle of the bell curve with penis size, what I (and women) call &quot;nice, decent, and acceptable&quot; and I&#39;m cool with that. At age 50, it is what it is. Hope that is not TMI, but candid talk makes for better healthy conversation.</em></span></span></span></p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color:#2f4f4f;"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>&quot;Things are never as bad as they seem, you just gotta learn to see the forest for the trees&quot;<br />
	&#8211;Huey Lewis</em></span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p><span style="color:#3f3015;"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>There is a 222 acre nature park named Tualatin Hills near Nike World Headquarters in Beaverton Oregon, and I started walking through it to get to work, and at lunch, since the weather has got warm.</em></span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3f3015;"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>I try not to be the type that portrays that he has got it all together, I&#39;m in general pleased with my personal, spiritual and mental development, but one &quot;stickler&quot; about me is that so far as having a still and quiet mind, on a scale of 1 to 10, ten being a totally quite minded &quot;Zen Master&quot;, I would have to rate myself about a 2.</em></span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3f3015;"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>&#8230;..However, walking amongst the trees to work through the Tualatin Hills has bumped my stillness up a couple of points.</em></span></span></span><span id="more-17369"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-17379" height="700" src="http://www.gaiahealthblog.com/wordpress1/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/trees2.jpg" style="border: 1px solid rgb(63, 48, 21);" title="trees2" width="735" /></p>
<p><span style="color:#3f3015;"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>Upon entering one end of the park, as all reality of the external world around me diminishes to insignificance, I was amazed how much &quot;noise&quot; is in my mind. However, the sound of the whistling trees, the songs of the birds has an undeniably calming effect on the psyche.</em></span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3f3015;"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>I seemed to feel the &quot;irrelevance&quot; of all my irrelevant thoughts. The folly of my mind, as if these trees really care about the worthless meeting taking place at the job in an hour.</em></span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3f3015;"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>My mind settles down about a hundred paces into the park and a Walt Whitman poem comes to mind, a poem I read dozens of times, but never &quot;felt&quot; it until now.</em></span></span></span></p>

	Master of all, or mistress of all&mdash;aplomb in the midst of irrational things,<br />
	Imbued as they&mdash;passive, receptive, silent as they,<br />
	Finding my occupation, poverty, notoriety, foibles, crimes, less important than I thought;</em></span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color:#2f4f4f;"><span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>Me private, or public, or menial, or solitary&mdash;all these subordinate,<br />

<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color:#2f4f4f;"><span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>A river man, or a man of the woods, or of any farm-life in These States, or of the coast, or the lakes, or Canada,<br />

<p><span style="color:#3f3015;"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>BTW, with Whitman, either you get him or you don&#39;t, so I don&#39;t wanna explain that poem.

<p><span style="color:#3f3015;"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>But that&#39;s OK. I know the totality of what my mind creates is really just noise, those thoughts are not the real me, the real me is the silence in the forest from whence I just came.

<p><span style="color:#3f3015;"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: georgia,serif;"><em>If there is one thing I&#39;ve learned from my physical and mental journey is that it is a process, and I have all spring, summer and fall to have the forest speak to me, and I can sense these trees will keep reminding me wherever I go, that I should strive to become like those trees, just stand tall, rise and grab the sunlight, and just exist in harmony and balance&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;.and with a quiet mind</em></span></span></span></p>

But I am advising women to at least look into what mother nature has to offer us for our wellness. I have brought similar herbs into my regiment, but I always&nbsp; do EXTENSIVE homework, monitor my body&#39;s reactions to new products, and be it right or wrong, trust my god given instincts.</em></span></span></span></p>
