So it makes an impact on our thinking if we read the Gospels as a healing message or a legal message? I think so! It is written: Jeremiah 17:14 Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for you are my praise. Jeremiah 30:17 For I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, said the LORD; because they called you an Outcast, saying, This is Zion, whom no man seeks after. Hosea 6:1 Come, and let us return to the LORD: for he has torn, and he will heal us; he has smitten, and he will bind us up. Psalms 103:1-3 Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. 2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: 3 Who forgives all your iniquities; who heals all your diseases; Psalms 30:2 O LORD my God, I cried to you, and you have healed me. Jeremiah 33:6 Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them, and will reveal to them the abundance of peace and truth. Exodus 15:26 And said, If you will diligently listen to the voice of the LORD your God, and will do that which is right in his sight, and will give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases on you, which I have brought on the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that heals you. John 12:40 He has blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them. Mark 2:9-11 Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy, Your sins be forgiven you; or to say, Arise, and take up your bed, and walk? 10 But that you may know that the Son of man has power on earth to forgive sins, (he said to the sick of the palsy,) 11 I say to you, Arise, and take up your bed, and go your way into your house.I think our view of the Gospel, whether it is a legal issue or a trust/healing issue makes a lot of difference.

There are many blood pressure medicines which have as a side effect ED. ED is associated with atherosclerotic vascular disease, diabetes, hypertension, etc. Ahhh. Good point! Does Erectile Dysfunction cause disease and death, or what causes Erectile Dysfunction also causes disease and death? Kind of like the salt issue. Is too much salt bad for you or are the foods which have too much salt bad for you? That is, is it the cause or an indicator?

ED is a symptom, it is not the disease. Salt is often the fall guy when it is the food that contains the salt which is the problem. Said another way, we blame the salt, not the food. We do this because we do not want to give up the foods we like. Unless the underlying disease is treated, the symptoms will not go away. Repeat, if you treat only the symptoms, the disease will not go away and things will probably get worse.
Sin - the behaviors we exhibit evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies. This are the symptoms of the disease SIN. And like other sicknesses, unless you treat the cause, the symptoms will not go away.

Radiation From Cell Phones Linked to Erectile Dysfunction
by Tony Isaacs
(NaturalNews) As reported in the Environmental Health Trust's latest newsletter, cell phones have now been linked to erectile dysfunction (ED). While numerous studies have shown that cell phone radiation leads to human sperm death and damage and decreased fertility, the new report of increased erectile dysfunction is sending shock waves through the men's health community.
Erectile dysfunction is the inability to attain or maintain a penile erection sufficient for successful sexual intercourse and is a very common clinical condition that can affect up to 50% of men over 40 years old. Among the known risk factors for ED are diabetes mellitus, hypertension, obesity and hypercholesterolemia.
The damning results of the preliminary study
In the preliminary study published last year in the Central European Journal of Urology, medical teams in Austria and Egypt found that men who carried switched-on cell phones for longer periods of time had a notably greater incidence of ED than men who carried switched-on phones for lesser periods of time.
For the study, the researchers recruited 20 consecutive men complaining of erectile dysfunction (ED) for at least six months (Group A), and another group of 10 healthy men with no complaints of ED (Group B). According to the researchers, there was no significant difference between either group regarding age, weight, height, smoking, total testosterone or exposure to other known sources of radiation.
All men completed the German version of the Sexual Health Inventory for Men (SHIM) for evaluation of the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF), as well as another questionnaire designed by the study clinicians that assessed cell phone usage habits.
The men in the study who had erectile dysfunction carried switched-on cell phones for an average of 4.4 hours daily, whereas the men without erectile dysfunction averaged 1.8 hours.
Since the preliminary study was small-scale, the researchers concluded that the results indicated a need for larger-scaled studies. However, if past history is an indicator, the cell phone industry can be expected to vigorously contest any negative conclusions and endeavor to produce results favorable to the industry.
The expected industry resistance
As Natural News reported in 2010, a large scale cell phone study which had given preliminary news releases indicating that it would report a link between health dangers and cell phones was somehow reversed at the last minute -- over the objections of the lead researcher and other researchers -- to absolve cell phones of being dangerous. Notably, significant funding for the study came from the cell phone industry itself. See:
http://www.naturalnews.com
When it comes to cell phones, distance is your friend
Cell phones have also been linked to cancers -- especially brain cancers and cancers in the area adjacent to where cell phones are normally carried. A good rule of thumb when it comes to cell phones: Distance is your friend. In other words, the farther you keep a cell phone from your body, both when carrying it and when talking on it, the better. Likewise, do not keep a cell phone turned on and close by when sleeping.
The Environmental Health Trust (EHT) is a non-profit organization created by Dr. Devra Davis, PhD, MPH, to educate individuals, health professionals and communities about controllable environmental health risks and policy changes needed to reduce those risks. Dr. Davis is the author of noted books such as When Smoke Ran Like Water and The Secret History of the War on Cancer.
Currently, EHT focuses on raising awareness on the negative impacts of unsafe cell phone use and on performing cutting edge research on cell phone radiation.

Junk Food Stealing Your Manhood? Unhealthy Diets Cause Testosterone To Plummet
by David Gutierrez, staff writer
(NaturalNews) Men with a less healthy diet have lower levels of testosterone, according to a study conducted by researchers from the University of Kentucky and the University of North Texas and published in the Journal of Primary Care and Community Health on April 22. The study was funded by the National Institutes of Health.
Testosterone is a sex hormone typically found in all human beings, the highest levels being found in post-pubescent males. It is known to play important roles in male sexual development and puberty, development of bone density and muscle mass, as well as libido and sexual function. Testosterone also plays important roles in maintaining several different organ systems.
According to a 2009 study by the National Institutes of Health, five million men suffer from low testosterone nationwide. Low testosterone has been shown to increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, obesity and early death.
Poor diet, low testosterone
Testosterone naturally declines about 1 percent per year in men over the age of 39, which is not necessarily a cause of concern. Testosterone levels are not considered low enough for concern until they dip below 300 nanograms/deciliter.
In the new study, researchers interviewed 147 men above the age of 44 who lived in the Dallas/Fort Worth metropolitan area. The men ranked their own diets as either healthy, defined as having high levels of fruits, vegetables, poultry and fish; or unhealthy, defined as having high levels of red meat, fast food and fried food. The researchers also measured the testosterone levels in each man's blood.
As expected, testosterone levels decreased with age. An unhealthy diet, however, was also associated with decreased hormone levels.
"The study implicates that diet, in addition to advanced age, is a possible risk factor for developing reduced testosterone levels," wrote researchers Roberto Cardarelli and Jason Meyer.
The researchers noted that while low testosterone levels are a risk factor for certain diseases, they are not necessarily immediately dangerous. Because the risks of hormone treatments are not well understood, most doctors recommend testosterone replacement therapy only for men who are experiencing symptoms of low testosterone. For example, while 39 percent of men in the study had testosterone levels below 300 nanograms/deciliter, only a few showed any symptoms.
"More research will be required to fully understand the relationship between diet and testosterone levels," Cardarelli and Meyer wrote. "Still, our findings point to evidence that diet is a major indicator when it comes to overall health and wellness."
Improve your diet, avoid hormone replacement
Indeed, the study may provide a great benefit to men concerned about low testosterone levels. It suggests that improving your diet may boost levels of the hormone, without risky and unproven hormone replacement therapy.
Although testosterone replacement therapy is developing into a major health craze, with "low-T" clinics springing up across the country and the number of testosterone prescriptions tripling in the past three years, many health experts warn that the therapy is risky and overused.
A recent study found that older men who used testosterone therapy were twice as likely to have heart attacks as men who did not get the therapy. It also increased the risk of heart attacks in younger men with a history of heart disease.
Many doctors also worry that serious underlying health problems such as sleep apnea, depression, and heart disease are being misdiagnosed as low testosterone, because they can have the same symptoms.
"Any man who presents, especially in his 40s and 50s, with new onset erectile dysfunction is at an increased risk for cardiovascular disease and even heart attack or myocardial infarction," said urologist Edward Karpman, director of the Men's Health Center at El Camino Hospital in Los Gatos, Calif.
