Women have heard all the stereotypes about men. You know the ones… In general, men have a reputation. Tough guy. Won’t ask for directions. And getting one to the doctor often takes an extreme act or injury. Well, that’s the rumor. But rumors often have a grain of truth to them. It may explain why an acclaimed prostate cancer expert, David B. Samadi, M.D. took to the TV asking women to take an active part in the fight against prostate cancer.Prostate Cancer is actually the second highest leading cancer killer of men, but very few men will voluntarily go to the doctor to get “their junk” checked. Women, on the other hand, have known for years about the value of early detection for breast cancer, uterine cancer, etc. This is why most women, when they hit a certain age, will voluntarily get a mammogram with very little fuss. It’s why women schedule routine gynecologist appointments for pap smears. Is there discomfort involved? Heck, yeah! But it’s better than late detection.

So what should women know about prostate cancer so that they can keep the men they love with them longer?

  • Genetics make a difference. If other members of the family have been diagnosed, get tested.
  • African American men are 60% more likely to get prostate cancer than Caucasian men.
  • Age matters. If you’re over 65, get tested.

Ladies, YOU can be the difference in lengthening your partner’s life. Sure, we’re just a lubricant company in the greater scheme of things, but we want our lovers to be happy in healthy (both physically and otherwise) relationships. If we can help make this happen by raising awareness, then that’s what we’ll do!

By the way, if you or someone you know and love has been diagnosed with prostate cancer, you may want to check out the prostatecancer911 site.

Sexual health is such an important topic, but one so rarely discussed. Everyone approaches their sexuality (and their self discovery) in different ways. It’s also important people are comfortable within themselves and are offered safe places to explore their understanding and knowledge of what works for them.

World Sexual Health Day is all about celebrating what makes you unique and special sexually. This is about joy and passion, not fear and misconception. If you haven’t heard of it before, HERE are some of the details surrounding the event. We encourage you to check it out for yourself! After all, here at Aloe Cadabra, we’re all about the pleasure and joy of sensual discovery in a healthy, organic sort of way.

If you don’t happen to be in New York, you can still participate online. Live Streaming of the event will be done HERE. We’re also encouraging folks to follow the event on Twitter or Facebook.

Summer.

The word brings images of hot weather, cool beaches, and vacations. Kids are excited to enjoy the freedom that comes with the end of their school year and, hopefully, an awesome family vacation. June is also the most popular month for weddings, which means brides and grooms everywhere are looking forward to their upcoming honeymoons.

Regardless of which category you fall into, bags are getting packed, and much needed trips are being planned. Necessities need to be remembered. We recommend creating a list so that nothing important is forgotten at the last minute. It’s also important you know what items are permitted and prohibited by TSA. There’s often a big difference between what you’re allowed to carry on and what must be checked. Click HERE for the complete list of what items go where.

Most of us have become savvy enough travelers (Or we’ve watched Meet the Parents) to realize that all your essentials should go in your carry on. There’s less likelihood of it getting lost or left behind. Isn’t it great that Aloe Cadabra just happens to come in 2.5 oz. bottles with nondescript labels? Parents, newly marrieds, and lovers from everywhere can pack a bottle to help enhance their vacation and not concern themselves with what fellow travelers or airport security might think. In fact, there’s a strong chance that someone will think the bottle is to treat sunburn!

Pssst! By the way, it CAN treat sunburn. In fact, according to one of our followers, it can even treat bug bites. Check out this Tweet we received yesterday! What’s the most unique use of Aloe Cadabra that you’ve discovered? Tweet us with your discoveries and we’ll share them.

 

 

Safe Sex 101: Beyond the Condom….

Posted on

What women don’t know (but think they do) can really hurt them.

Sex, desire, intimacy, connection, pleasure…most of us really enjoy it and always seem to want to learn how to make it better – but how about safer?

Practicing safe sex with partners goes without saying but what we want to talk about with our readers is being safer in ways that have a different impact on the body. Time and again, women consider a variety of approaches to spice up or enhance their sexual experience…toys, films, costumes and products, including massage oils, aphrodisiacs and lubricants, those fun potions we keep in our trusty “goody drawers.”

For some women, choices are made by determining what will make them blush the least, typically selecting a bottle of personal lubricant from the drug store shelves. But what we do we really know about the potion inside the bottle?
