A few times of being hurt over my youthful gullibilty has helped save me in later years. I developed an instinct to be suspicious of anything sounding too good to be true. This, often, has me searching the universe for answers when I hear of quick cures for whatever ails us. As they say: if it's too good to be true, it normally is.
Today, I came across a website stating certain foods could curb the libido. Now, you would have to understand that my biggest complaint, when communicating with the universe, is the extreme high amounts of hormonal activity in our youth, which can carry over into adulthood with some. Meaning, it doesn't slow down in order to bring about balance. Yet, it seems it's more out of control today than ever. More rapes reported. More violent crimes. What can be done? Yes, I am aware that "more" can be attributed to a much larger population, but that doesn't answer my prayer for help in this area. What can be done?

However, maybe my prayers are being answered. We do say that the universe works in mysterious ways. Maybe this push for legalization has a deeper meaning, because that website listed Marijuana as one of the libido lowering items. Now, that got my attention! I'm not a proponent of marijuana, but I do wish for more research on medical cannabis, because, to date, I'm not feeling the same as some who feel it's a cure all for everything. Maybe it's not even for this. But, if I felt it really could help, I'd be asking to have it in a lot of thing we eat or drink. Who'd want to wage war, or anything, then? Right? ;)
Yes, I thought this was very, very interesting. But than the skeptic in me starting researching more and I found another website that gave me more insight. It's results are a mixed emotions based on the results of several studies.

I soon discovered Dr Marcola's site and he lists several drugs that can lower one's libido. He states that: "Medical marijuana is legal in 20 states, where it is commonly used to treat pain, nausea, and other conditions. It may dampen your libido and ability to perform in men."

Hmmm. It looks like it's something to consider. I also read where men can get moobs because of it. Be careful. Of course, the effect may depend on each individual. That would make sense too. Oh well universe, I guess it's back to the drawing board. ;)
