Foreign Objects Inserted in the Body Orifices for Sexual Pleasures Can be Harmful

Woman Lose a Thermometer in Her Bladder

I assisted the urologist on this case

At 10:00 a.m., on a weekday morning, a young woman was brought into the operating room in a state of fright. Her X-rays revealed a thermometer cross way inside her urinary bladder. When asked how did the thermometer get into her bladder?  She stated, “My girlfriend and I were playing around with the thermometer to see how hot we could get, and I lost the thermometer.” 

Because of the position of the thermometer in her bladder, the urologist could not remove it, and had to get a surgeon to perform a major operation on this woman, to remove the thermometer from her urinary bladder.

The urologist informed me that in all the many years of his profession, he has never witnessed anything of this nature. He said, he has removed match sticks from the urethral meatus of some males, who insert them in their penis to maintain an erection.

*Foreign objects inserted into the urethral meatus, or any part of the body orifices for sexual pleasures can be dangerous to do. It can cause an infection that can lead to serious complication, resulting in a medical procedure to remove the object or major operation.

Freedom and Peace

Without freedom, there is no peace.

The soul of the human being yearns for freedom and peace.

To experience the spirit of peace, one must have freedom.

Neither can be obtained without the other.

 __ Ellen J. Barrier

“For peace to enter into our body, mind and spirit, we have to release our anger and hurtful feelings into God’s hands.”

Exercise Is Not Enough

“My holy of holies is the human body; health, intelligence, talent, inspiration, love, and absolute freedom-freedom from violence and falsehood, no matter how the last two manifest themselves.” Anton Chekhov

When we view the statement above and the thoughts of the Apostle Paul on the human body, we can agree that exercise alone, is not enough to qualify for complete fulfillment of a healthy body; 

that would include the mind and soul within each individual.

The Apostle Paul clearly believed that there are benefits for the body through exercising, but more is needed to fully benefit the whole person.  Paul stated “For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.” 1Timothy 4:8 (King James Version)

Spirituality plays an Important Role in Good Health

“Look to your health; and if you have it, praise God, and value it next to a good conscience; for health is the second blessing that we mortals are capable of; a blessing that money cannot buy.”

_Izaak Walton

Health is something that is very valuable and should never be taken for granted.  We should do all that is possible to take good care of our health. And encourage others to do the same. Prayers are always needed for God’s intervention, being that he is the one who designed our body.

In order for a person to be complete and to have a healthy body, a healthy diet, and a healthy mind is needed, along with a good exercising program.  When a person only exercise, eat unhealthy foods, and have no spiritual consciousness they will tire quicker, and their stress level will be higher.

Be blessed in health and happiness.

Anorexia Nervosa: the Effects

Anorexia means loss of appetite.

This is a very serious health problem. In Latin, "Nervosa" means nervous. The body's Nervous System is attacked by this eating disorder.

Anorexia Nervosa is a condition in which its victims starves themselves. This disorder has taken the lives of many females. Its victims are teenage girls and young adult females, although some young males are said to suffer from this disease as well.

The Effects of Anorexia Nervosa, is done by the interference of starvation that disrupts the biochemistry makeup of the body's systems.

The Effects of Anorexia Nervosa:

Hair loss, dull looking hair

Depression

Emaciation

Excessive fatigue

Sleep disturbance

Hormone imbalance

Amenorrhea (lack of monthly cycles)

Constipation

Halitosis

Corroded teeth

Slow pulse

Brittle fingernails

Low blood pressure upon standing

May have difficulty sleeping

                                         Behavior of the Anorexia Nervosa  Individual

The characteristic behavior of Anorexia Nervosa is secretive and defensive. The individual is preoccupied with food and weight gain, that dominates their thought process. They often feels hungry but denies they are. They will normally wear larger clothes to conceal their body shape and weight loss.

The person suffering from Anorexia Nervosa, may resort to drugs and alcohol, to alleviate the feeling of hunger and depression. Having a relationship with someone is very difficult for this individual to do, because of the psychological state of their mind. Therefore, they are often in an isolated position, due to one or more failed relationships.

This condition is a psychological illness which causes the victim to believe they are overweight, when in reality they are very thin. Those who suffer from Anorexia Nervosa induces starvation due to fear that they will become 'fat' if they loose control over their diet, and possibly their life.

Anorexia Nervosa has taken the lives of thousands of females. This disorder can easily affect those who are obsessed with having a thin body. Many who suffers from this condition reportedly, have been hospitalized several times. Some have died by suicide or by starvation, although they were treated in a hospital.

Recommended Food Groups for Proper Nutrition

Protein is one of a class of complex nitrogenous compounds which occurs naturally in plants and animals, and gives amino acids when hydrolyzed. Because of the amino acid, they contain, proteins are essential to growth and tissue repair.

Proteins are a source of heat and energy to the body. They are essential for growth, the building of new tissue, the repair of injured or broken-down tissue, and the repair of the protoplasm of every cell. They are oxidized in the body, thus liberating heat.

Amino Acids are the building blocks of which proteins are constructed, and the end products of protein digestion or hydrolysis. Unused amino acids are converted into urea, the chief nitrogenous constituent of urine and the final product of protein metabolism in the body.

Sources of Protein 

Poultry: chicken, duck, goose, and turkey.

Organ Meat: liver, brain, kidney and sweetbread.

Eggs (excellent source of protein)

Fish  (good source of protein)

Corn is used frequently in our diets. It contains  micronutrients, water, fiber, and other substances contained in a food; corn contains 74% of water. 20% of Macronutrients (carbohydrates, fats, and proteins)  0.1% or less of Micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) 5%  Dietary fiber, water and macronutrients form the largest part of most foods. While micronutrients are present in much smaller amounts, Fiber is present in varying degrees in those foods of plant origins.

The Anatomy of the Human Body

The human body is built like a complicated machine that only its creator completely understands its operation; and has the infinite wisdom to rebuild it. It is extraordinarily professionally created.
  
__ Ellen J. Barrier
Author/Medical Professional

The Anatomy and Physiology of the Body Systems

To put it simple, Anatomy is the structure of the body parts, and Physiology is how each of the body parts function. Let's start with the inner parts of the body, called the systems which are the structure of the body parts, and after which, we will list the function of each system. The body is built like a sophisticated machine that only its creator completely understand its operations. After studying Anatomy and Physiology, I understood clearly what the writer of Psalm 139: 14 meant by his statement as noted below.



  "I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvelous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well."  

We can conclude that the body systems are an organized group of organs or cells related to each other. Where as each organ performs a specific or a certain function. Let's begin with the Circulatory System.

The heart is a hollow muscular contractible organ that is the center of the Circulatory System. It is divided into 4 chambers. There are two upper champers with thin walls and two lower chambers with thick walls.
The two upper chambers are called the atria (left and right). The two lower chambers are called ventricles.
The two sides of the heart are separated by a strong muscular wall known as the septum. There are several valves in the heart. They are; Pulmonary, Tricuspid, Mitral, and Aortic. Each valve is lined with a membrane called Endocardium.

The muscle of the heart is called, Myocardium. Inside of this muscle, there are fibers that forms a network of branches called arteries and veins. The Aorta, is the largest artery in the body. It leads from the left ventricle and supplies the body with oxygenated blood.

The Pulmonary artery leads from the right ventricle. It divides into two branches that supply used blood to the right and left lungs.

Inside of the heart is lined with a smooth membrane called the Endocardium.
Pericardium is a tough membrane that is double-layered covering the heart as a bag.
There is a space between the two layers of Pericardium and Endocardium that contains a thin layer of fluid that lubricates and allows free movement of the heart muscle within the outer bag.

Being that the heart works hardest of all the muscles in the body, it has large energy requirements that need  an adequate supply of fresh oxygenated blood to maintain its actions, as all of the muscles in the body do.

The heart has a network of branches which is its own system of arteries, capillaries, and veins exclusively for its own blood supply. This system is call the Coronary. The reason behind the name is due to the arteries surround the upper portion of the heart like a crown. The word "Corona" in Latin mean crown. Both the right and left Coronary arteries arise from the beginning of the Aorta. From that point, smaller branches  pass into the heart. The left artery is divided into two large branches; Right Coronary artery and left Coronary artery.

Information:

1. The heart rate is approximate 70 beats per minute at rest for an adult.
2.  During strenuous exercise, the heart rate can become 200 beats per minute.
3.  The heart contracts about 100,000 times per day and more than 2.5 billion times
       in an average lifetime.                    
4.  The heart pumps at least 9 pints (4.5 liters) of blood per minute.
5.  The heart pumps about 1,500 gallons (6,000 liters) of blood daily.
6.  The heart generates enough power in a day to drive a truck 20 miles.


The Body Systems:

1. circulatory - circulates body fluids. It includes both cardiovascular
       (heart and blood vessels) and the lymphatic systems

 2. digestive - is defined as the Alimentary Canal. This includes the mouth, teeth, tongue,
pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small and large intestines, accessory glands (salivary glands, liver, pancreas)

3. endocrine- ductless glands that produces an internal secretion discharged into the blood
  or lymph. It is then circulated into all of  the body parts.
       

4.  hematopoietic _ has to do with the production and development of  blood cells.
     
 5.  integumentary- consists of the skin, hair and nails and its appendages.
                                                                               

6.  lymphatic-circulates lymph. It includes lymph vessels, lymphatic organs
            (lymph nodes, ducts, tonsils, thymus, spleen)                  

 7.  muscular- includes all of the muscles (smooth, cardiac, striated, and skeletal)

  8. nervous - consists of the brain, ganglia, spinal cord and nerves

  9.  reproductive-includes the gonads, their structure association and ducts.

 10. respiratory- consists of the air passageway and organs (nasal cavities, oral cavity
       pharynx, trachea, and lungs (bronchi, bronchioles, alveolar ducts, and alveoli. 

11.  skeletal- The bony framework of the body.

 12.  urinary - Secreting or containing urine.

Defend Your Goals: Face Your Challenger & Don't Back Down!

Ellen J. Barrier

Author/Spirituality Counselor

When facing your challenger, don't back down!  Defend your goal. You have to draw upon  your mental and spiritual strength that is within you, in order to persevere. Many people will discontinue their process for completing their goals, when facing their challenger. Many will stop exercising, and return to poor eating habits, and neglect their health, and some will dropout of school, leaving their education to suffer. And some will enter into habits that can destroy themselves and harm others.




Many years ago, there lived a man by the name of Paul. While speaking to a group of people around a campfire, a poisonous snake came out of the fire and bit him, and held onto his hand. Paul shook that snake off, back into the fire, and continued to speak to the people. His goal was to deliver his message to them. And he accomplished that goal. He didn't allow his challenger to defeat him. He drew upon that strength that was within him, that allowed him to defend his goal. He faced his challenger, and didn't back down.

Challenges will come unexpectedly, to try to throw us off of our game. But we must persevere-  whether financial,  personal relationships, an attack on health,  or what ever they may be; We must stay focused on our goals. If we allow ourselves to focus on our challengers, they will win. We must never allow ourselves to give up: Keep moving forward like the bikers, Keep helping others with their heavy burdens, like the weightlifters, and keep fighting for justice against those who inflict evil upon the innocent, like the champs in the ring. Standing together as one nation, we will complete our goals.
