Erectile dysfunction – learn about its causes and treatments

A man expends much more energy than a woman, especially if he is active and plays sports on a daily basis. Therefore, your breakfasts need to be more abundant and give you a boost of energy for the whole day. What to eat first thing in the morning to avoid overloading your stomach with high-calorie food and simple sugars? We suggest!

Shakshuka – just the way you like it

Shakshuka may not be very quick to prepare, but it is extremely filling and flavorful. The basis of the dish is tomatoes and eggs, but if you add some tomato paste and peppers to it, it will be even tastier. Simmer garlic, onions and tomatoes in a pan. Make “dimples” with a spatula and pour eggs into them (as many as you think you need). Fry them to the desired consistency and, at the end, obligatorily sprinkle the dish with greens. The pinnacle of culinary art will be to add pieces of feta or bryndza to the dish. And don’t forget to cut off some bread with which you will “sweep” the leftover shakshuka!

Breakfast in English

You don’t have to stick to the recipe. We suggest “stealing” the basic idea from the English – put as many delicacies on the plate as possible! Fried eggs, bacon and sausage – this is the original composition of the English breakfast. But you can go a step further and put on the plate toast, tomatoes, mushrooms, canned beans, and even avocado languishing in the refrigerator (if it is not unripe, of course!). A royal breakfast!

Perfect scrambled eggs

Do you know what the secret to incredibly tasty scrambled eggs is? We share the secret! First of all: do not regret the butter. If you have listened to dietary stories about the harmfulness of cholesterol, put them preemptively out of your head. It’s the simple sugars that are your biggest enemy! So, melt more clarified butter in a pan than usual. Second, add a tablespoon of cream. And third – don’t stop stirring, don’t step away from the stove even for a second, and by no means let the eggs curdle too much. After all, you want them to be velvety and melt in your mouth! For good health, sprinkle the scrambled eggs with a solid portion of parsley or cilantro and nibble on some pickles.

A filling sharma

For such a breakfast you need to prepare a little, as it requires a certain amount of ingredients. Cut yourself a pre-baked chicken breast (about 25 dag) into thin strips and lay it on a lavash pancake. Slice the cucumber and tomato, and chop the Chinese cabbage or other lettuce. Mix 50 ml of kefir with a tablespoon of mayonnaise. Season the sauce with salt and pepper. Add the chopped greens. Spread the vegetables over the meat, pour the sauce over it and wrap the stuffed pancake into an envelope shape. Fry the sharma in clarified butter on both sides. Mmm… yummy!

Italian frittata with cherry tomatoes and bacon

Actually, this is a very filling casserole of eggs, meat and assorted vegetables. Fry an onion in clarified butter, and when it glazes, add bacon (or any other sausage) and 2-3 cooked potatoes cut into thin slices. Add halved cherry tomatoes (5-6 pieces). Crack 4 eggs into a separate dish, whisk them and pour them into the pan. Fry everything together, sprinkle a handful of grated hard cheese, add chopped greens and cover the pan with a lid for a few minutes. Top with tomato sauce or tzatziki. Enjoy!

You don’t have to be a first-class athlete to suffer an injury on the field or sports arena. Whether you start training regularly or are a professional athlete, you are at risk for a sports injury. Learn about the 5 most common injuries among athletes and the best ways to treat them!

Plantar fasciitis

If you’ve started to feel a dull or burning pain in the heel area while walking, you may be suffering from plantar fasciitis, which, as the name suggests, extends along the entire length of the sole. This type of injury is most common in runners, and its treatment is a long and gradual process. Try rolling your feet from toe to heel on a tennis ball to stretch the damaged tissue. Do this for 5 minutes several times during the week. You may need to use special insoles to relieve the stress on the stretch to give your foot extra cushioning.

Hip bursitis

Although hip bursitis is most often diagnosed among the elderly, people who are very physically active, long-distance runners or avid cyclists are also at risk. Bursitis is favored by prolonged repetitive stress on the hip joint. Recovery from injury will be improved by light exercises that improve coordination of the hip and gluteal muscles. Strengthening and improving coordination in these regions reduces inflammation and increased friction between the muscle and the joint.

Lumbar spine pain

This pain can be caused by a number of factors, including weight lifting and strength training. The level of pain you experience depends on the severity of the injury. In most cases, the pain passes on its own. In the case of severe pain syndrome, you will need to see a physiotherapist who will manually relieve you of the pain, in addition to teaching you proper ergonomics and exercise technique.

Muscle overload

Regardless of sports seniority, everyone is at risk of muscle overload, especially if training is not preceded by a decent warm-up. In addition to insufficient stretching, muscle overload during training can occur due to muscle weakness, fatigue and stress. Injury is easily prevented by performing simple stretching exercises before each workout. However, if it has occurred, apply a cold compress to the sore area for 20 minutes, wrap it with a bandage and lift it up if necessary.

Runner’s knee

Almost half of all sports injuries are related to the knee. Runner’s knee is a strain injury that manifests as pain on the lateral side of the knee joint. Although many runners actually suffer from this condition, the injury also affects basketball players, volleyball players, swimmers, cyclists or soccer players. Excessive strain on the patellofemoral band causes friction between it and the bony outgrowth above the lower attachment, on the lateral side of the knee joint. Treatment of runner’s knee can go in many directions and include ice packs, giving up certain exercises such as squats and lunges, and using additional support in the form of bandages.
