People with an addiction do not have control over what they are doing, taking or using. Their addiction may reach a point at which it is harmful.

Addictions do not only include physical things we consume, such as drugs or alcohol, but may include virtually anything, such abstract things as gambling to seemingly harmless products, such as chocolate - in other words, addiction may refer to a substance dependence (e.g. drug addiction) or behavioral addiction (e.g. gambling addiction).

This article focuses mainly on addiction to physical substances.

In the past, addiction used to refer just to psychoactive substances that cross the blood-brain barrier, temporarily altering the chemical balance of the brain; this would include alcohol, tobacco and some drugs. A considerable number of psychologists, other health care professionals and lay people now insist that psychological dependency, as may be the case with gambling, sex, internet, work, exercise, etc. should also be counted as addictions, because they can also lead to feelings of guilt, shame, hopelessness, despair, failure, rejection, anxiety and/or humiliation.

When a person is addicted to something they cannot control how they use it, and become dependent on it to cope with daily life.

A habit may eventually develop into an addiction

Many of us can use substances or become engaged in activities without any significant problems. Some people, however, may experience damaging psychological and/or physical effects when their habit becomes an addiction.

Addictions and habits

With a habit you are in control of your choices, with an addiction you are not in control of your choices.

• Addiction - there is a psychological/physical component; the person is unable to control the aspects of the addiction without help because of the mental or physical conditions involved.
• Habit - it is done by choice. The person with the habit can choose to stop, and will subsequently stop successfully if they want to. The psychological/physical component is not an issue as it is with an addiction.

Addiction to substances or activities can sometimes lead to serious problems at home, work, school and socially.

The causes of addiction vary considerably, and are not often fully understood. They are generally caused by a combination of physical, mental, circumstantial and emotional factors.

Addiction, often referred to as dependency often leads to tolerance - the addicted person needs larger and more regular amounts of whatever they are addicted to in order to receive the same effect. Often, the initial reward is no longer felt, and the addiction continues because withdrawal is so unpleasant.

According to MediLexicon's Medical Dictionary:

Addiction is Habitual psychological or physiologic dependence on a substance or practice that is beyond voluntary control.

Withdrawal has many meanings, one of which is A psychological and/or physical syndrome caused by the abrupt cessation of the use of a drug in an habituated person.

According to the current Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV), published by the American Psychiatric Association:

Substance dependence is When an individual persists in use of alcohol or other drugs despite problems related to use of the substance, substance dependence may be diagnosed. Compulsive and repetitive use may result in tolerance to the effect of the drug and withdrawal symptoms when use is reduced or stopped. This, along with Substance Abuse are considered Substance Use Disorders..

Addiction may include prescription medications

Most people think of illegal drugs when they hear the word “addiction”. However, prescription drug addiction is becoming a serious public health problem in the USA and many other nations. Prescription medication abuse was described as “an epidemic” by researchers from the University of Nebraska Medical Center College of Medicine in a study they reported on in November 2012.

The scientists explained that doctors today treat pain differently than they used to years ago. This change has led to an increase in prescription drug abuse.

In the USA in the 1990s - the decade of pain treatment - not only was there a change in medication, but also policy. Pain became the fifth vital sign doctors looked out for, along with respiratory rate, blood pressure, body temperature and pulse rate. Doctors’ offices today commonly have signs in their waiting rooms asking patients to rate their experience of physical pain from 1 to 10. 

Causes of Addiction

Doctors say there is a link between the repeated use of an addictive substance and how the human brain experiences pleasure - its use has a nice reward, leading to further and more frequent use.

The addictive substance, be it nicotine, alcohol or some drug actually causes physical changes in some nerve cells in the brain. Another name for a nerve cell is a neuron. Neurons release neurotransmitters into the synapses (empty spaces) between nerve cells, which are received by receptors in other neurons.

What is a neurotransmitter?

A neurotransmitter is a chemical that a nerve cell releases, which thereby transmits an (electric) impulse from one nerve cell to another nerve cell, organ, muscle, or other tissue. Put simply, a neurotransmitter is a messenger of neurologic data from one cell to another cell.

Tolerance increases

After a while, the user of the potentially addictive substance does not get the same pleasure and has to increase the dose - his/her body’s tolerance to it increases.

Eventually, the user no longer experiences pleasure from the substance and takes it simply to prevent withdrawal symptoms - taking the substance just makes them feel normal.

Experts say that when tolerance increases, the risk of addiction is much greater.

Possible Complications Of Addiction

The following are common complications caused by a substance addiction. An addiction may affect a person's life in the following ways:

Health - addiction to a substance, be it a drug, narcotic or nicotine usually has health consequences. In the case of drug/alcohol addiction there may be mental/emotional as well as physical health problems. In the case of nicotine addiction the problems tend to be just with physical health.

Coma, unconsciousness or death - some drugs, taken in high doses or together with other substances may be extremely dangerous.

Some diseases - people who inject drugs have a risk of developing HIV/AIDS or hepatitis if they share needles. Some substances, including specific drugs or alcohol can lead towards more risky sexual behavior (unprotected sex), increasing the probability of developing sexually transmitted diseases.

Accidental injuries/death - people with a drug/alcohol addiction have a higher risk of falling over, or driving dangerously when under the influence.

Suicide - the risk of suicide is significantly higher for a person who is addicted to a drug/alcohol, compared with non-addicted individuals. This is not the case with nicotine dependence.

Relationship problems - social, family and marital relationships can be severely strained, leading to family breakups, etc.

Child neglect/abuse - the percentage of neglected or abused children who have one or both parents with an addiction problem is higher compared to those whose parents are healthy. These figures apply to some drugs and alcohol, not to just nicotine dependence.

Unemployment, poverty and homelessness - a significant number of drug/alcohol addicts find themselves without work or anywhere to live.

Problems with the law - if the substance is expensive, the addicted individual may resort to crime in order to secure his/her supply, making it more likely there will be problems with police, including imprisonment.

Signs And Symptoms Of Addiction

A symptom is something the patient senses and describes, while a sign is something other people, such as the doctor notice. For example, sleepiness may be a symptom while dilated pupils may be a sign.

Substance dependence - when a person is addicted to a substance, such as a drug, alcohol or nicotine, they are not able to control the use of that substance. They continue taking it, even though it may cause harm (the individual may or may not be aware of the potential harm).

Substance dependence can cause powerful cravings. The addict may want to give up (quit), but finds it extremely difficult to do so without help.

The signs and symptoms of substance dependence vary according to the individual, the substance they are addicted to, their family history (genetics), and personal circumstances.

Signs and symptoms of substance addiction may include:

• The person takes the substance and cannot stop - in many cases, such as nicotine, alcohol or drug dependence, at least one serious attempt was made to give up, but unsuccessfully.
• Withdrawal symptoms - when body levels of that substance go below a certain level the patient has physical and mood-related symptoms. There are cravings, bouts of moodiness, bad temper, poor focus, a feeling of being depressed and empty, frustration, anger, bitterness and resentment.
• There may suddenly be increased appetite. Insomnia is a common symptom of withdrawal. In some cases the individual may have constipation or diarrhea. With some substances, withdrawal can trigger violence, trembling, seizures, hallucinations, and sweats.
• Addiction continues despite health problem awareness - the individual continues taking the substance regularly, even though they have developed illnesses linked to it. For example, a smoker may continue smoking even after a lung or heart condition develops.
• Social and/or recreational sacrifices - some activities are given up because of an addiction to something. For example, an alcoholic may turn down an invitation to go camping or spend a day out on a boat if no alcohol is available, a smoker may decide not to meet up with friends in a smoke-free pub or restaurant.
• Maintaining a good supply - people who are addicted to a substance will always make sure they have a good supply of it, even if they do not have much money. Sacrifices may be made in the house budget to make sure the substance is as plentiful as possible.
• Taking risks (1) - in some cases the addicted individual make take risks to make sure he/she can obtain his/her substance, such as stealing or trading sex for money/drugs.
• Taking risks (2) - while under the influence of some substances the addict may engage in risky activities, such as driving fast.
• Dealing with problems - an addicted person commonly feels they need their drug to deal with their problems.
• Obsession - an addicted person may spend more and more time and energy focusing on ways of getting hold of their substance, and in some cases how to use it.
• Secrecy and solitude - in many cases the addict may take their substance alone, and even in secret.
• Denial - a significant number of people who are addicted to a substance are in denial. They are not aware (or refuse to acknowledge) that they have a problem.
• Excess consumption - in some addictions, such as alcohol, some drugs and even nicotine, the individual consumes it to excess. The consequence can be blackouts (cannot remember chunks of time) or physical symptoms, such as a sore throat and bad persistent cough (heavy smokers).
• Dropping hobbies and activities - as the addiction progresses the individual may stop doing things he/she used to enjoy a lot. This may even be the case with smokers who find they cannot physically cope with taking part in their favorite sport.
• Having stashes - the addicted individual may have small stocks of their substance hidden away in different parts of the house or car; often in unlikely places.
• Taking an initial large dose - this is common with alcoholism. The individual may gulp drinks down in order to get drunk and then feel good.
• Having problems with the law - this is more a characteristic of some drug and alcohol addictions (not nicotine, for example). This may be either because the substance impairs judgment and the individual takes risks they would not take if they were sober, or in order to get hold of the substance they break the law.
• Financial difficulties - if the substance is expensive the addicted individual may sacrifice a lot to make sure its supply is secured. Even cigarettes, which in some countries, such as the UK, parts of Europe and the USA cost over $11 dollars for a packet of twenty - a 40-a-day smoker in such an area will need to put aside $660 per month, nearly $8,000 per year.
• Relationship problems - these are more common in drug/alcohol addiction.

Some substance/alcohol abusers who are not technically addicted may also suffer from or cause some of the descriptions mentioned above, but they do not usually have the withdrawal symptoms of an addict or the same compulsion to consume the substance.

Treatments For Addiction

The first step for the addicted person is to acknowledge that there is a substance dependency problem (addiction problem). The next step is to get help. In most of the world there are several support groups and professional services available.

Treatment options for addiction depend on several factors, including what type of substance it is and how it affects the patients. Typically, treatment includes a combination of inpatient and outpatient programs, counseling (psychotherapy), self-help groups, pairing with individual sponsors, and medication.

Addiction treatment programs

Addiction treatment programs typically focus on getting sober and preventing relapses. Individual, group and/or family sessions may form part of the program. Depending on the level of addiction, patient behaviors, and type of substance this may be in outpatient or residential settings.

Psychotherapy

There may be one-to-one (one-on-one) or family sessions with a specialist.

Help with coping with cravings, avoiding the substance, and dealing with possible relapses are key to effective addiction programs. If the patient’s family can become involved there is a better probability of positive outcomes.

Self-help groups

Self-help groups may help the patient meet other people with the same problem, which often boosts motivation. Self-help groups can be a useful source of education and information too. Examples include Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous. For those dependent on nicotine, ask your doctor or nurse for information on local self-help groups.

Help with withdrawal symptoms

The main aim is usually to get the addictive substance out of the patient’s body as quickly as possible. Sometimes the addict is given gradually reduced dosages (tapering). In some cases a substitute substance is given. Depending on what the person is addicted to, as well as some other factors, the doctor may recommend treatment either as an outpatient or inpatient.

The doctor or addiction expert may recommend either an outpatient or inpatient residential treatment center. Withdrawal treatment options vary and depend mainly on what substance the individual is addicted to:

• Addiction to depressants - these may include dependence on barbiturates or benzodiazepines. During withdrawal the patient may experience anxiety, insomnia, sweating and restlessness. In rare cases there may be whole-body tremors, seizures, hallucinations, hypertension (high blood pressure), accelerated heart rate and fever. In severe cases there may be delirium, which according to the Mayo Clinic, USA, could be life-threatening.
• Addiction to stimulants - these may include cocaine and other amphetamines. During withdrawal the patient may experience tiredness, depression, anxiety, moodiness, low enthusiasm, sleep disturbances, and low concentration. Treatment focuses on providing support, unless the depression is severe, in which case a medication may be prescribed.
• Addiciton to opioids – Opioids are a class of drugs that are commonly prescribed for their analgesic, or pain-killing, properties. They include substances such as morphine, codeine, oxycodone, and methadone. Opioids may be more easily recognized by drug names such as Kadian, Avinza, OxyContin, Percodan, Darvon, Demerol, Vicodin, Percocet, and Lomotil. During withdrawal there may be sweating, anxiety and stuffy nose – symptoms tend to be mild. In rare cases there may be serious sleeping problems, tachycardia, hypertension and diarrhea. The doctor may prescribe methadone, or buprenorphine for cravings (alternative substances).

What Cola and other soft drinks Does To Your Body

What Cola and other soft drinks Does To Your Body

What Cola and other soft drinks Does To Your Body

Cola is one of the most popular beverages among the world. People consume it because of its sweet 

and addictive nature. But do you know what happens when you take cola and what it does to your body? 

Cola is listed as one of the worst beverages to swallow due to its high sugar content. This further implies 

that it is rich in caffeine content which is not good for your body.


Here is how cola and other soft drinks affects you:


First 10 minutes:
When you first take cola the sugar content is what enters your stream. Not just one teaspoon but 

ten teaspoons! When you take 10 spoons of sugar in reality, you end up puking. But you do not because the phosphoric acid cuts off the flavor thus keeping it down.


After 20 minutes
After 20 minutes, the blood sugar reaches the point at which it causes an insulin burst. When this 

fluid enters the liver, the liver turns it into fat from the sugar that has now entered the system.

After 40 minutes
After 40 minutes, the absorption of caffeine is now completed. Your pupils will dilate as your 

blood sugar rises. This is a response reaction which makes the liver generate and dump more fat 

and sugar into the bloodstream. The adenosine receptors that are present in the brain are also blocked which prevents the effect of drowsiness.


After 45 minutes
Dopamine is the happy hormone that is produces by the brain. When you consume cola, the dopamine 

levels tend to increase. This triggers the area in your brain that is responsible for the sense of pleasure, 

for these centers are activated. The drug heroin also works in a similar way.


After 1 hour
The phosphoric acids present will bind the calcium, magnesium and the zinc in your lower intestine. 

This provides a boost in the metabolism of your body. Not just that, this is also compounded by a 

high dose of sugar. The artificial sweeteners that are present will also cause the urinary system to 

excrete calcium when it must excrete nitrogenous wastes.
The diuretic properties that are present in caffeine are also responsible for making you go to the 

bathroom a lot of times. This will make sure that all the contents and the electrolytes of zinc and 

magnesium are thrown away.
All this is followed by a caffeine crash that takes place in the next few hours. Therefore, it is important 

to take cola in moderate amount to avoid the harsh effects due to excessive sugar, phosphoric acid 

and caffeine.
So we have learnt how cola affects are entire system, not just our body, but also the most vital organ 

the liver and the brain.

Foods That Help You Quit Smoking

Foods That Help You Quit Smoking

Foods That Help You Quit Smoking

So your endless efforts to quit smoking are not working? How about trying some foods that might help 

you get rid of this deadly habit? We know it is not as easy as it sounds but there are some fruits and 

vegetables that might be of some help. The trick is to make the right choices of food when you finally 

plan to quit.

Each year one in every five deaths in the US is caused by smoking. Also there are almost 8.6 million 

people who are suffering from some serious illnesses caused by smoking. It has been estimated by 

CDC (Centers of Disease Control and Prevention) that an adult male who smokes may lose 13.2 years 

of his life on average and a female smoker may lose 14.5 years.

There are about 4800 chemicals contained in a cigarette out of which 69 can cause cancer. Whereas, 

secondhand smoke comprises of 7000 chemicals out of which 70 are known as cancer-causing. 

So smoking is not only lethal for the smoker himself but also for the people being exposed to 

the secondhand smoke. Smoking causes lung cancer, cardiovascular diseases, emphysema and also 

cause fertility problems.

A study conducted by Duke University claims that making the right choices of food may aid you in 

getting rid of this habit. The remedy lies in fresh fruits, vegetables, non carbonated beverages and 

dairy products. It has been hypothesized that selecting these foods may alter the production of the 

saliva and also temporarily make changes to the taste buds, making cigarettes less palatable.

The University of Buffalo also conducted similar researches, that is fruits and vegetables can help 

quit smoking. Their studies revealed that people consuming fruits and vegetables were 3 times more 

likely to quit smoking than the smokers who didn’t eat much of the fruits and vegetables. 

Jeffrey Haibach, M.P.H, lead author of the study says, “Cravings for cigarettes and foods are 

closely linked and often confused with one another,” he adds that, “By eating a diet with higher 

fiber content, you’ll feel fuller and avoid craving confusion.”

Joseph McClernon, Ph.D., director of the Tobacco Neuroscience Research Lab at Duke University 

also states that fruits and vegetables can worsen the taste of the cigarettes.

So here we are with the list of foods that can work for smoking quitters:

Milk
According to the research conducted at the Duke University, milk can help to reduce the craving for 

cigarettes. The researchers claim that milk leaves a strange aftertaste in the mouth of the smokers 

that make them repel from smoking. Also the high contents of protein found in milk are beneficial in

providing extra energy when you feel down because of the craving for nicotine. So whenever you feel 

the urge for cigarettes just take a sip of milk. Yogurt or a piece of cheese is equally good and can be 

consumed instead of milk to help you quit.

Carrots
James A. Duke, PhD. Botanist at the USDA’s Agricultural Research Service, in Maryland, says, 

“If cigarettes are cancer sticks, carrots are anticancer sticks”. His own routine was 3 packs of 

cigarettes per day. He claims that carrots played a vital role in helping him quit smoking. 

The component called caroteniods found in carrots not only helps you quit smoking but also saves 

you from cancer. Buy yourself a bunch of baby carrots and whenever you carve for a cigarette 

munch on a these fresh raw carrots.

Sunflower Seeds
Researchers claim that sunflower seeds have the same effect on your mind as tobacco, i.e. 

they increase the production of adrenaline. Sunflower seeds not only have a calming effect on 

your mind but also contain essential B-complex vitamins that help in the nourishment of the nervous 

system. They are a good option for smoking quitters but overeating is not suggested as they contain 

high contents of fats. Choose the one with shells so that the consumption process can take time.

Bananas
Recent studies have found that banana can help quit smoking. The most common problem faced by 

the smoking quitters is that they feel lack of energy and stressed out. The friendly bananas, full of 

essential vitamins and minerals, can boost your energy and calm you down in stressful conditions 

caused by nicotine cravings. Whenever you feel the urge to smoke, kill it by eating a banana.

Marjoram tea
Marjoram is an aromatic herb commonly found in the Mediterranean countries. Its tea can be very 

effective for those who want to quit smoking. It makes the throat dry as a result smoking becomes less 

pleasurable. All you need to do is, boil 1 teaspoon of marjoram tea in a cup of water for 15 minutes. 

Whenever you feel the craving you can consume this tea. This herb is easily available at all health food stores.

Cloves
Cloves do not completely help you quit smoking but may help you limit the quantity of cigarettes you smoke. Whenever you smoke your first cigarette of the day, suck on a small clove, this will leave the taste of 

nicotine in your mouth for a long time and will reduce the urge for another cigarette.

All the above mentioned foods can help you quit smoking but also keep in mind that there are some foods 

that can actually aggravate your craving for smoke. According to the research conducted at the

Duke University, when you plan to quit smoking, avoid taking meat, alcoholic beverages and coffee

because these foods make cigarettes taste better.

Increased Ejaculation is Strongly Linked to a Lower Risk for Prostate Cancer - Dr. David Samadi 

Increased Ejaculation is Strongly Linked to a Lower Risk for Prostate Cancer - Dr. David Samadi

Dr. David Samadi states “Prior research shows a link between the benefits of sex and prostate cancer. But a new study, with long term follow up, adds to the evidence that ejaculation frequency, is the key factor in reducing prostate cancer risk.”

Ejaculation frequency may be inversely related to the risk of prostate cancer, a disease for which few modifiable risk factors have been identified - Dr. David Samadi

NEW YORK, NY (PRWEB) APRIL 12, 2016

According to a new study, increased ejaculation is strongly linked with a lower risk for prostate cancer in men. According to world renowned prostate cancer surgeon, Dr. David Samadi at Lenox Hill Hospital, “Prior research shows a link between the benefits of sex and prostate cancer. But this new study, with long term follow up, adds to the evidence that ejaculation frequency, is the key factor in reducing prostate cancer risk.”

Researchers claim that sex, or frequency of ejaculation may be a modifiable risk factor for prostate cancer, with more sex having the effect of reducing a man’s risk for prostate cancer. "Aside from the potential cancer benefits, sex also provides a number of health benefits such as a boost in your immunity, better sleep, and can even protect against heart disease" states Dr. Samadi.

The study was carried out by scientists at the Harvard Medical School and Brigham and Women Hospital. What they found was that “ejaculation frequency may be inversely related to the risk of prostate cancer, a disease for which few modifiable risk factors have been identified." The study data tracked about 32,000 men, who were surveyed to find out the frequency of ejaculations between 1992 and 2010. Men who ejaculated 21 times or more each month were about 20 percent less likely to receive a prostate cancer diagnosis than those who only climaxed less than 10 times a month. As for how men achieved ejaculation, it is not a requirement to have a sex partner. Whether it be sexual intercourse, nocturnal emission, or masturbation, all are beneficial.

In Dr. David Samadi's opinion, "these findings provide additional evidence of a beneficial role of more frequent ejaculation throughout adult life in the etiology of prostate cancer, particularly for low-risk disease". It is encouraging that men with higher ejaculatory rates have been seen to have lower risk of prostate cancer long term, as there are not many modifiable risks for prostate cancer.

According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, prostate cancer is most common cancer among men (other than skin cancer) in the United States. According to the World Cancer Research Fund International, in 2012, there were more than 1.1 million cases of prostate cancer. This makes prostate cancer accountable for 8 percent of all new cancer cases, and 15 percent of cancers in men. 

• It is estimated that in 2016 in the United States, there will be about 180,890 new cases of prostate cancer
• About 26,120 deaths from prostate cancer
• About 1 in 7 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer during his lifetime
• About 1 in 39 men will die of prostate cancer.
• About 6 cases in 10 are diagnosed in men aged 65 or older
• The average age at the time of diagnosis is about 66
• About 2.9 million men living with prostate cancer in the US today 

Question: For health sake, should people (especially men) in prison be allowed to have sex at least 3 times a week!!!
