1. Avodart (dutasteride) - this is a new medication that is not yet approved for hair loss but which offers exciting possibilities for treating male patten baldness. It works in a similar way to Propecia which prevents one of two enzymes from converting testosterone into DHT thus blocking two thirds of DHT production. Avodart takes this process a stage further by blocking both enzymes thus reducing overall DHT production by 93%. It is currently approved for treatment of enlarged prostates and should not under any circumstances be taken by women of child bearing age.

I am compelled to write this article to remind people of dangers of smoking. Cigarette smoking is known to cause lung cancer and is also linked to bladder, larynx and esophageal cancers, as well as heart disease. Smoking is not glamorous as billboards and magazine ads depict. Smoking is not cool; it is very opposite and so very harmful to your health. You are playing Russian roulette with your life if you continue to smoke. The chemicals that you inhale with every single puff of your cigarette are doing your organs damage especially to your lungs and heart.

If you do not smoke, be smart and don’t start as it could cost you your life. Don’t allow peer pressure by your friends to start smoking. They may be able to stop habit very easily but you may not be so lucky and stay addicted to smoking habit for rest of your shorten life. Yes smoking will shorten your life span. I repeat DO NOT START as you could end up being one of many unfortunate thousands who finds it impossible to give up smoking habit. Smoking is so addictive that some people are chained to their smoking habit, and it doesn’t matter how hard they try or what method they try, they find it virtually impossible to kick habit even though they inwardly know that their smoking habit is slowly killing them. The tobacco companies are to blame for their dilemma as they add chemicals so that smokers will stay addicted to their cancer sticks. Yes cigarettes are cancer sticks. They cause cancer to majority of long term smokers.
