Almost everyone is familiar with the fact that when women reach middle age, their bodies begin to go through a process known as menopause.
However, did you know that a percentage of men go through a similar development?
This process is known as or male menopause.
What is Andropause?
Andropause refers to the symptoms men experience as their testosterone (male *x hormone) production levels decrease with age.
After the age of 40, levels start to decline and the symptoms associated with andropause begin to manifest.
Andropause shares many symptoms with menopause, albeit milder.
Andropause does not involve a complete shutdown of the male reproductive organs. However, s*xual complications may arise as a result of lowered levels.
While menopause affects all women at some point in their life, andropause is said to occur in only a portion of men...
The rate of decline in testosterone levels varies in different individuals and is affected by chronic disease, such as obesity, illness, serious emotional stress, and medications.
The decline can be slowed down by management of health, healthy living and lifestyle modifications.
Testosterone fuels:
- s*x drive
- changes during puberty
- mental and physical energy
Testosterone
- maintains muscle mass
- regulates fight-or-flight response
Andropause can cause physical, s*xual, and psychological problems.
These include but not limited to:
-low energy
-depression or sadness
-anger (road rage...)
-decreased motivation
-brain fog
-lowered self-confidence
-difficulty concentrating
-insomnia or difficulty sleeping
-increased body fat (beer belly)
-reduced muscle bulk and strength,
-fatigue and feelings of physical weakness
-mild unexplained anemia
-digestive disorders: excessive gas, bloating, heartburn, constipation or diarrhoea
-adult onset allergies or worsening allergies
-development of breasts
-decreased bone density
-reduced s*xual desire and activity
-decreased spontaneous erections or erectile dysfunction
-infertility
-breast discomfort or swelling
-decreased testicle size
-loss of body hair
-hot flashes
It is normal for men to experience a decline in testosterone levels as they get older. The symptoms are manageable for most even without treatment.
Treatment
-eat a healthy diet
-get regular exercise
-get enough sleep
-reduce your stress
If your symptoms are causing you hardship, speak to your doctor...
I wish you good health and happiness,
Dr Nse

Hello everyone!

What Is Virtual Health?
Virtual health refers to online medical consultation through your smartphones, laptop or tablets in real time, and from virtually any location in the world!
Uses:
For screening
Check ups
Diagnosis and treatment of a new illness, skin issues, chronic health conditions, health challenges associated with aging, conditions that you might be embarrassed to talk about face-to-face eg libido and to provide mental/emotional health services and monitoring.
Did you know patient monitoring at home is the best method for treating patients with chronic conditions like diabetes, hypertension, asthma where complications, rehospitalizations or unnecessary emergency room visits too often occur due to lack of communication?

See for yourself
NB. Mr Okon is a fictitious character

Myself: Good morning Mr. Okon! How are you today?

Mr. Okon: Doc, I am not fine o. I am tired and fed up! I have been travelling (VGC to mainland) to the hospital every other week for 2 months yet my glucose level is still uncontrolled! What else is required of me??? Doctor says, eat vegetables, my wife is feeding me veggies morning, afternoon and night like I am a goat! In addition to this, I take a 45 to 60 minute walk 5 days a week, I have stopped taking alcohol yet…blood glucose still not controlled.

Myself: What about your meds? Are you taking your meds?

Mr Okon: I am taking them as recommended by my doctor.

Myself: Apart from veggies what else are you eating? Do you have a meal plan? Can I see it? Send along a copy of your most recent laboratory investigations, thank you.

Mr Okon: I was given a meal plan, but it is so boring with loads of don'ts that I can barely follow it. On my own I try to eat right all the time. Will send a copy of my results...

Myself: When was your last dental check? Scaling and polishing?

Mr Okon: Ah doc what's that? Those checks are so expensive! I only go there to fill holes in my tooth. Last time was 3 years ago

Myself: your need to at least once a year even though twice is the recommended practice.

Mr Okon: that's too expensive…

Myself: Relatively…the consequences are more. Do you know dental or foot infections can cause difficulties controlling your blood glucose despite all other measures taken?

Mr. Okon: Doc you don't say!

Myself: True talk! By the way, how often do you check your feet? Hope you checked them today

Mr Okon: every day

Myself: turn your camera to your door and let me see you walk in...

Mr X: done

Myself: turn your camera to your feet let me have a look please… can you spread your toes so I see the webs…

We both look and he exclaims:

Mr. Okon: Ha doc! When did these sores appear? To be honest with you, I haven't bothered to check my feet or toes in ages …

See! When patients living with chronic conditions are left to their own devices, some may have trouble following through on treatment regimens, which means their condition will only worsen.

But when care providers can remotely monitor a patient’s condition, they will know whether the patient is following the treatment guidelines...
One of its complications of diabetes is numbness of the feet so cuts, sores and blisters are not noticed hence the need to check daily!
Diabetes can cause serious long term problems in people of working age and it is responsible for loss of income, broke retirement and for lower limb amputation other than accidents.

When I checked in between his toes, wow he had sores (athlete's foot) between the webs of his 2nd, 3rd and 4th toe on both feet! And the nail on the big right toe had ingrown and was weeping!

Guess what? He felt no pain! - a nerve complication of diabetes.

Recommendations for Mr Okon in addition to blood glucose control via healthy eating, positive stress coping and exercise:

Talk therapy with a coach
See GP for treatment ingrown nail
Check feet and toe webs daily
Cut and file finger and toe nails properly going forward (I showed him how)
Wear thick soled comfortable slippers at all times except when in bed
No more tight covered shoes that crowd the toes
Wear breathable socks
Dry feet properly after a bath especially the toe webs
Moisturize sole of feet not toe webs daily
Scrub and exfoliate feet at least twice a week
Have a comprehensive foot exam every year in addition to your regular checks and eye checks

This is how virtual health works - no travel time, access to care and accurate information, lower cost of care, decrease hospital visits, unnecessary admission and more all at your convenience…

If you are living with diabetes, take your doctors' orders seriously. You will live a normal healthy life with no complications!

Thank you!

I wish you good health and happiness,

30/04/2021

Hello Everyone!

Enjoy this Fish Peppersoup Recipe for the Weekend!

Peppersoup is a versatile and really easy soup to make but the preparation may be tedious and messy.

You can use any choice of ingredients or meats/meat alternatives.

My cooking adventure many years ago.

Mom: Oh iyami! If I wanted to eat raw fish from the river, I would known where to go! If there was a river nearby, I'll just throw this fish from your peppersoup back into the water and watch it swim away!

Myself: How can you say that mommy! Whats wrong with my pepper soup?

Mom: Come and see o...is this how you've been cooking peppersoup? No wonder your stomach runs...

She proceeds to show me the fins, bones from the tail, and the red bones. Didn't I show you how to clean fish? ...on and on and on better learn how to cook well ....

Mom: I am sure the mouth is smelling, see the whiskers! Sai! I can't even put it any where close to my face talk of eat it...the smell will spill out my whole gut from vomiting.

Oh dear what could have happened? I thought I had done my best for this my mom with a heightened sense of smell and eyes like an eagle!

Mistake
1. The fins - fins disintegrate with cooking thus increasing the bony content of the peppersoup
2. I marinated the fish over night in freezer and didn’t allow it thaw completely before cooking.
How to make fish pepper soup

Ingredients
2l water
2kg of fish
4 seasoning cubes
5 Chilli peppers (depends on you)
10 Black pepper (uziza) seeds
4 Utazi leaf ( optional, less or more)
4 Negro pepper pods (uda)
6" piece Aidan fruit (uyayak)
1 cup basil leaves
6 Calabash nutmeg (ehuru)
10 Clove buds
1 average sized white or red onion, finely chopped
Optional - tomatoes, bell peppers, garlic, ginger, palm oil

Preparation
1. Wash fresh fish with cool/tepid tap water, (remove scales first if scaled fish), scrub the skin, inside the mouth and gut cavity with coarse salt then lemon until slime breaks down and dirt and debris removed

2. Trim the fins, tail and whiskers. Rinse thoroughly, then cut into comfortable bits

3. Roughly crush chilli, shred the herbs and crush the spices separately

4. Marinate fish with onions, salt, seasoning cubes and crushed peppers

5. Mix well with your hands or with a wooden ladle cover and refrigerate for 30mins

6. Simmer marinated fish on low heat for 10 to 20 mins, add 1l water, increase the heat, allow to cook for 10mins

7. Add crushed spices, add remaining 1l of water, let it boil, lower heat, simmer for 10 mins. Turn off heat

8. Serve hot with bread, boiled yam, plantain, cocoyam or potatoes

Tips
I prefer to cook the yam or plantain in the pepper soup to get the benefit of its stock
I also prefer to marinate my fish overnight

N.b Washing fish with hot water semi cooks the fish. This hinders marination and prevents your spices from penetrating into the fish flesh

Lemon decreases slime, fishy odor and in addition enhance taste

Fish may be substituted with chicken, goat, beef, animal offals

Mushrooms, roasted vegetables or tofu may be used as fish substitute for a vegan friendly version

White onions has a milder, distinct aroma and sweeter taste compared to the red or yellow onion

Ready in 60 to 90 minutes

Serves 6 people

Enjoy!

I wish you good health and happiness,

Dr. Nse

29/04/2021

Hello Everyone!

Did you know African traditional medicine practitioners had herbs and spices that were used for contraceptive and hormone balancing effects?

Example aidan fruit, negro pepper, neem (spermicide) and more to mention but a few.

Food is indeed medicine! So someone on fertility treatment may be countering results from simply eating certain foods!!!

Aidan fruit or Tetrapleura tetraptera also known as pepper soup spice is a species of the pea family native to West Tropical Africa.

Aidan fruit has an exceptional fragrant, sweet and aromatic taste. It is called uyayak in Efik/Ibibio, aridan in Yoruba, and prekese in Ghana.

Aidan fruit is rich in iron, potassium, calcium, zinc, phosphorus, flavonoids, tannins, steroids, and phenolic compounds. In addition, its tree bark and leaves are also packed with medicinal properties.

In Cross River and Akwa Ibom States, aidan is used to prepare food to aid post partum (new mom) recovery, healing, return of the body to near normal, shrink uterus, aid breast milk production and aid 'after delivery' weight loss.

Aidan is crushed or broken into bits to flavor several dishes like white soup, pepper soup, banga soup, porridge and herbal teas.

The dry powdered fruit is used in soap making to increase antimicrobial activity, anti-aging, sun block effects as well as improve the foaming ability of soaps.
The strong smell of aidan fruit is said to act as repellents for insects, slugs and snails in gardens.

Aidan is used for medicinal purposes due to its antioxidant, anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory effects.

It is used traditionally to:
- relief joint /body aches and pain
- soothe respiratory symptoms
- boost immunity, mood
- enhance performance, libido and have contraceptive effects
- aid digestion
- treat worm infestation
- aid wound healing
- quieten the nervous system (convulsions) - relief fever

More research needed to confirm or refute these claims though there have been a lot of responses to herbs and spices by a good number of people.

Moreover, the flavoring properties of many herbs and spices tend to reduce the use of salt and this has additional cardiovascular health benefits!

Over the last few decades, research into the health benefits of herbs and spices has increased significantly.

Many herbs are known to possess properties associated with reducing the risk of developing chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, neurodegenerative conditions, chronic inflammation, cancer, obesity, and type 2 diabetes.

This shows our ancient tradition and meal preparations followed a nutritional principle that targeted healing.

Hmmmmm! The future of wellness is through the medical use of food!

Thank you!

I wish you good health and happiness,

28/04/2021

Hello Everyone!

Did you know scent leaf had fly repellent properties? Have you noticed in some villages, people tie a bunch of scent leaf around their fish basket, kitchen windows and doors?

I didn't know this until a few years ago.

My story...

Me: Jane how on earth do you plan to sun dry my dried fish without making it maggot laden?

Jane: Aunty this is how grandma used to do it for you o. Did you see or smell maggots on the dried fish we sent to you in Lagos?

Me: Hmmmnn! Rolled my eyes... I can't wait to see this your magic o!!!

Jane proceeds to the vegetable garden cuts a hand full of scent leaves and its twigs along with a few banana/plantain leaves.

She cleans the banana leaves with a wet cloth and uses half of them to lay a table in the sun.

Then she nicely arranges my dried fish on the table, and randomly covers the fish with the twigs of scent leaf, tops it with banana leaf. She leaves them outside in the sun and off she goes back into the house!

I remained outside waiting for flies to zoom in in their numbers so I could laugh and tell her, I told you so...

Two mins, no flies, 5 mins, not even one, 10 mins I said 'ha what is this?'

Twenty mins - 3 maggots crawled/stumbled out of one fish heads...we separated this from the rest and continued sun drying.

Guess what? We sun dried the fish for 4 whole hours and not one fly did I see buzzing around!

I quickly carried my phone and Googled 'does scent leaf have insect repellent properties?'

The answer yes!

Plus mosquito repellent properties too! I could see the smog smile on Jane's face ...

What I don't know is if the 'aware' flies in Lagos or the 'weather proof' ones in Northern Nigeria or those in other parts of the world will be repelled by scent leaf like the 'tamed' ones I Calabar.

Experiment and let me know, thank you.

Like a lot of culinary herbs, scent leaf is a member of the mint family.

By the way, there are over 50 species of scent leaf... some we consider them as weeds...if only we knew their health benefits.

These numerous variety share similar health benefits with sight differences in their medicinal effects, colour (differentshades of green, purple and combinations of green and purple), aromas, and tastes - sweet, minty - strong, mild or peppery.

Some of their oils are extracted and used as essential oils in perfumes, room fresheners, candles or different treatment balms!

Scent leaf is also known as basil leaf, nchanwu in Ibo, efirin in Yoruba, ntong in Efik/Ibibio.

A few of the common types - sweet basil, Holy basil, lemon, lime, cinnamon, Greek, Italian, Christmas, purple ruffle basil and many more types...

Scent leaf is used to spice or garnish both savoury and sweet foods or drinks.

Scent leaf adds character to a lot of Calabar food...Pepper soup or ekpang is considered bland without scent leaf.

Scent leaf has rich antioxidant properties, has antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties too.

Benefits
1. Aids digestion
2. Eliminate mouth odor
3. Relieve stomach ache and cramps
4. Relieves respiratory symptoms
5. Used in ancient traditional medicine to treat ringworm, boils, malaria and boost immunity
6. Heartburn, pain relief, nausea relief
7. Control blood pressure and glucose
8. Insect repellents
9. Skin health
10. Food preservatives and a lot more

The future of medicine is in our food and herbs...

Do have a pleasant day.

I wish you good health and happiness

27/04/2021

Hello Everyone!

Did you know black pepper is the same thing as uziza seeds? Same thing as black peppercorns?

Black pepper are seeds of Piper guineense, 'etinkene' or 'adusa' amongst the Efik and Ibibio tribe and 'ebe-ahinhi akpoke' amongst the Edo tribe

Depending on how these seeds are prepared they become either white or black pepper seeds!

Indeed we are blessed with a lot of herbs and spices with super health benefits, but unfortunately we just don't know it...

Uziza seeds are also known as peppersoup spices, do you notice how you feel after a delicious bowl of peppersoup? If you can't remember, try it tonight and make sure you remember to add uziza aka black pepper seeds.

Black pepper has antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties...most chronic diseases have been linked to inflammatory processes in the body!

These properties explain its functions and guess what? Most of our locally available herbs and spices have anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial and antioxidant properties...

A lot of research ongoing on their effects as cancer fighting agents!!!

Black pepper seeds may be crushed and used as spices in food or drinks or its oil extracted and applied on the skin or scalp for its benefits.

Benefits include but not limited to:
1. Aids digestion - constipation/diarrhea, gas, bloating, stomach cramps
2. Weight management
3. Relief respiratory symptoms
4. Pain relief - menstrual cramps, headaches
5. Boost mood, s*x drive, brain function, memory
6. May improve blood sugar, cholesterol and blood pressure control
7. Improves skin health, skin discoloration/age spots, said to also improve hair growth and more
8. Black pepper aids absorption of turmeric
9. Black pepper oil may be applied on the skin for rashes, pain relief, insect bites itch relief
10. ?Inhale to help quit smoking

Black pepper is LIKELY SAFE when taken by mouth in amounts commonly found in foods.
Tips to use Black Pepper

• In pepper soup, salads, eggs, herbal teas, spice meat or fish

• It helps in improving both taste and digestion of certain foods. It could also help improve your overall health and well-being.

Let's not underestimate the healing powers of our local herbs and spices...they may hold the key to solving conditions seen as medical mysteries!

I wish you good health and happiness,

23/04/2021

Hello Everyone!

Did you know?

Subtle signs of aging begin to show between the ages of 25 and 30 years. How many of you were able to stand without support/leaning to wear your trousers or underwear today?

Balance is one thing that shows we are beginning to age!

How you age vary depending on your genes, lifestyle, personal health choices and medical history. The good thing is, you can control lifestyle choices (environment) and these have a more powerful impact on how well your body ages than your genes!

It is worthy of note to know that aging is not a disease, but is a fact of life. Therefore, growing old and getting sick simply are not interchangeable! Senility, for example, is not a natural consequence of getting old either.

Did you know people are capable of living their lives without pain and suffering caused by chronic degenerative diseases? Knowing what to expect and how to slow some of those changes can help you stay as comfortable and active as possible. How well you age is a choice…

Tips:
Regular checks
Dental care, eye, hearing
Blood pressure
Blood glucose
Lipid profile
Kidney and liver function tests
F***l occult blood
Build relationships
Be kind to your skin - Stick to gentle skincare products and skin care routine.
Stay hydrated
Mindfulness
Exercise - very important
Eat healthy
Keep stress down - Moderate alcohol, quit smoking
Get enough sleep
Find new hobbies - sudoku...

What does aging well mean to you?

I take a personal approach to defining ‘aging well' - for me it is about living my best life and having the physical and mental health to enjoy it.

As Abraham Lincoln put it: “It’s not the years in your life that count. It’s the life in your years".

What you think about aging well matters. Your perspective – what you think – will impact on how you age. While you may not be able to avoid a chronic condition, you can control your outlook on life….and you can put life in your years!

How would you define aging well? What is most important to you?

20/04/2021

Hello Everyone!

Did you know food, skincare products and lifestyle play a role in causing eczema?

Eczema is a nonspecific term for many types of skin irritation (dermatitis). Its causes/predisposing factors range from genetic susceptibility to immunity, age, food, skincare products or lifestyle.

My motivation for skin health and food stems from the challenges I encountered many years ago while managing my children's severe allergies in their early years.

In retrospect, the lifestyle of swaddling them in woolen blankets, the skincare products I used and dairy milk I fed them may have been the predisposing/exacerbating factors.

Like most typical modern day nigerian mothers, I swaddled them in warm woolen blankets come rain, come shine, day in, day out, 7 days a week to prevent pneumonia in my mind! When it comes to certain practices, common sense is not common at all!

The sweat, discomfort and the emotional stress we put these babies through is enough for eczema, infections and more to thrive for a long time!

If you think back, in the olden days our babies were wrapped in light, breathable, cotton Guaranteed wax wrappers! Little did we know this served a function - hmmm we dumped this idea as local and chose to adopt a westernized woolen blanket wrap in this oppressive heat!

Not until I grudgingly changed their covers to light wrappers, allowed them to wear light cotton clothes, changed their soap to homemade black soap and replaced dairy with seed milk did we find respite.

Soaps, detergents, wool, skin infections, dry skin, dry weather, heat, sweating or emotional stress are irritants that act as triggers for eczema and can cause flare-up

Stress is often an overlooked trigger in older adults - job losses, financial or relationship issues could be a trigger.

The remedy for eczema may lie in avoiding triggers, or simply keeping the skin healthy and moisturized.

Look good feel good Monday

Everyone enjoys looking good, and a lot of time is spent on making it happen. Yet it might be interesting to note that no matter what you do, if you aren’t feeling good, you won’t look as good as you could do.

Those who are happy and healthy have a certain ‘glow’ about them, whereas those who are unwell or unhappy will look the way they feel, no matter what they try to do.

Here are some useful tips on how to feel better as much of the time as possible, in turn making you look better in general.
Sleep well
Eat healthy
Exercise
Stress less

Wear what makes you happy, what you feel comfortable in, most importantly, what you feel confident in. If you enjoy your clothing, you will feel wonderful, your body will respond to that; you will find yourself standing up taller and subconsciously showing off your outfit.

It works every time. If you’re ashamed of what you are wearing or uncomfortable in it, that’s the vibe that people will pick up.

Be positive, and the changes will astound you.

For your convenience, I provide Online Skin Health and Healthy Lifestyle products and services to help you save good health for retirement, look good, feel good inside-out and outside-in, up to your golden ages.

Hello Everyone!Skin Care 101 continued. Would you like to have a Youthful Healthy glow? If yes, create a simple skin car...
16/04/2021

Hello Everyone!

Skin Care 101 continued.

Would you like to have a Youthful Healthy glow?

If yes, create a simple skin care routine you can follow, eat loads of greens, be physically active 30 to 60 mins daily and sleep well.

For today we will discuss routine and how to keep your face youthful, healthy and glowing.

Skin of colour benefits from gentle but deep cleanse, exfoliation and tone: it is oily - remember the shine, obvious pores, acne prone, ingrown fuzzy hairs especially with age, sagging naso-labial fold, loses water easily...

The Process

1. Double cleanse

First step you use an oil based cleanser or oils such as baobab, coconut, kernel or olive oil to effectively break down sebum, makeup, or other impurities on the skin.

Put a few drops of oil in your palms, rub palms together and gently massage the oil onto your face for about 2mins, pay attention to the eye area.

Believe it or not oil helps remove the whole makeup and mascara in one wash leaving your face feeling silky smooth and pampered. Try it today and thank me later.

Then wash off with a gentle soap and warm water...African skin though resist wrinkles is quite sensitive. So it's best, more gentle and easier to remove your makeup and grim accumulated throughout the day with certain oils.

Wipes, cotton wool etc. may cause micro-tears leading to post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Facial wipes are different from butt or other wipes, they are more gentle, a bit pricey but may still cause micro tears.

The second step involves using a water-based cleanser (cream/gel) to clean deeper into the pores. This process ensures a thorough cleanse and smoother skin.

N.b Alcohol cleanse is a no no...in addition to increased oil production it dehydrate the skin. Who remembers the days of 10.0.6?

2. Products application on skin

Follow an up and out direction - for the right side of the face you use a clockwise direction and for the left is anti- clockwise.

For the upper part of chest and front of neck upwards to prevent sagging skin and gravity winning the downward pull. And downwards direction for the sides of the neck...

Follow the direction of the arrows in the diagrams below - videos coming soon.

Let me know if you have any questions.

A good tip for practice would be to print these 'pictures' and stick to your bath or dressing mirror… until you get a hang of it.

This is the principle you follow to wash, cleanse, mask, moisturize your face and neck if you want firm skin that will age well, and sag less.

Next step - exfoliate, firm, moisturize, treat and protect.

To be continued...

For your convenience, I provide Online Skin Health and Healthy Lifestyle products and services to help you save good health for retirement, look good, feel good inside-out and outside-in, up to your golden ages.
