Chinese Sexual Health Advice

Monday, November 9th, 2009

Today no one can avoid being influenced by advertisements. We are no longer free to choose the things we want, for advertising exerts a subtle influence on us. Advertisers have made a close study of human nature and have classified all our little weaknesses.

Medical authorities on sex questions tell us that an overwhelming majority of aphrodisiacs now flooding our market have hormone constituents which can stimulate blood circulation in the human body, speedily suffusing the spongy tissue of the male penis with blood in a small multiple of ten minutes to effect the erection of the male penis. At the same time, this will promote abnormally excessive secretion of determiners governing the sexual vigor. In this way, the aim of making strong the sexual desire is reached, and the male sexual partner’s function in sexual life is accomplished in a short spell.

But after the exhilaration, there will come the long period of suffering. Such drugs, if used over a long time, will damage the blood circulation system in male penis, numbing the nerves in the spongy tissue. Moreover, the secretion of determiners of sexual vigor will be thrown into disorder, the sexual energy will be overdrawn, resulting in drug dependence and further weakening of the man’s constitution and his sinking into a fearful swamp.

The majority of traditional Chinese medicines adopt two or more than two ingredients. They are particular about sticking to the analogy of a monarch being aided by ministers. In a medicine of two or more than two ingredients, each ingredient possibly may play an unimportant role, but several ingredients, put together, may produce a synergetic effect, reinforcing the therapeutic effect of each other and reducing the toxic side effect at the same tine. Western medicines are particular about making clear the structural formula of the effective component in pursuit of higher and higher purity. But this is often the cause of the big toxic effect of the Western medicine. Western herbal medicines are mostly of a single ingredient each. Even if two or more ingredients are used, the analogy of a monarch being aided by ministers is not emphasized. The process of roasting, baking and simmering in preparing the traditional Chinese medicine is simply not understood.
