How the Internet can Green the Electrical Grid

Google Tech Talk April 13, 2010 ABSTRACT Presented by S. Keshav. Several powerful forces are gathering to make fundamental and irrevocable changes to the century-old grid. The next-generation grid, often called the `smart grid,' will feature distributed energy production, vastly more storage, tens of millions of stochastic renewable-energy sources, and the use of communication technologies both to allow precise matching of supply to demand and to incentivize appropriate consumer behaviour. These changes will have the effect of reducing energy waste and reducing the carbon footprint of the grid, making it `smarter' and `greener.' In this talk, I will demonstrate that the concepts and techniques pioneered by the Internet, the fruit of four decades of research in this area, are directly applicable to the design of a smart, green grid. This is because both the Internet and the electrical grid are designed to meet fundamental needs, for information and for energy, respectively, by connecting geographically dispersed suppliers with geographically dispersed consumers. Keeping this and other similarities (and fundamental differences, as well) in mind, I propose several specific areas where Internet concepts and technologies can contribute to the development of a smart, green grid. I hope that our work will initiate a dialogue between these two communities. (joint work with Catherine Rosenberg, University of Waterloo) Project site: blizzard.cs.uwaterloo.ca S.

London Restaurant Reviews

!: London Restaurant Reviews

Planning a trip to London used to have a slight tinge of concern when it came to food but this is now a thing of the past as there has been an explosion of great restaurants in the capital.

There is a now a concern for the provenance of the food supplied and chefs are looking at locally sourced foods that are either organic, free range or at the peak of freshness. When these are combined with a true interest in the way it is prepared the British food scene is in a renaissance. The surge in interest in traditional British recipes means that it has never been better to sample the real cooking of Gt Britain. That is not all, there is also a huge increase in restaurants from around the world that gives a real dimension to eating out.

The list includes some very modest eateries where you will not spend a fortune but will still eat well.

There are now so many restaurants in London, that this is just a cross section of those available but everybody should find something that will appeal to their tastebuds and pockets.

Michelin Star Restaurants

Le Gavroche

43 Upper Brook Street, W1K 7QR (020 7408 0881)

Albert and Michael Roux set the benchmark for Haute Cuisine for London restaurants many years ago and son Michael Roux Jnr is now doing the same. Elegant dining such as this does not come cheap, a minimum price of £60 each, but with 2 Michelin stars over the door you just know it is money well pent.

Gordon Ramsay On Royal Hospital Road

68 Royal Hospital Road, Chelsea, London, SW3 4HP (020 7352 4441)

Lunch Menu £40 7 Course Dinner Menu £110

With a 2 month waiting list you will have to plan ahead if you want to eat here and with three Michelin stars, you just know the food will be out of this world. Any serious foodie would kill his own Mother to get a seat here to sample the French and Mediterranean dishes. It is a credit to Gordon Ramsay that despite being listed in the top five restaurants in the world, the house wine is only £15 although the extensive wine list contains some fine wines at a lot more than that.

Petrus

The Berkeley, Wilton Place, Knightbridge, London, SW1X 7RL (020 7235 1200)

Named after that great French wine, this restaurant has great French dishes to match, chef Marcus Wareing earned his 2 Michelin stars creating the finest Haute Cuisine available anywhere in the world. Chateau Petrus is of course, available, staring at a mere £300 per bottle and going up to a credit card melting £12,300. You may be tempted with the house wine at £15 but surely this would be an impertinence to such sublime dishes.

Locanda Locatelli

8 Seymour Street, London, W1H 7HT, (020 7935 9088)

Although I have not eaten there yet, I must admit this is my favourite celebrity chef. He always comes across a passionate believer in the quality of his ingredients and the joy of cooking them. I am sure his two Michelin stars are an understatement. If Italian food is your passion this is the temple where you can worship it in.

The amazing thing is that you can dine here for about £30 each and you will find many good wines at under £20 per bottle.

Nobu

Metropolitan Hotel, 19 Old Park Lane, London, W1 Y4LB (020 7447 4747)

This 2 Michelin star restaurant was the haunt of both pop and movie stars where the tempura is sublime. Japanese cuisine is always expensive so the £60 per person will not phases the Japanese affictionados.

Other Great Restaurants

Texture

34 Portman Square, W1H 7BY (020 7224 0028)

The nearest tube is Marble Arch but if you can afford to eat here you will not be travelling by public transport. Dinner for two with wine and service costs around £150. Has a Champagne bar that is worth a visit.

This restaurant is the brainchild of Agnar Sverisson, the Icelandic former head chef at Le Manoir aux Quatre Saisons, (Raymond Blanc's flagship restaurant) and Xavier Rousset who was the Head sommelier there. One can only wonder at the day they both decided to leave!

The decor could be described as Icelandic cool, the cuisine in the nouvelle style and the ingredients are the best. A great introduction is the started menu which will give you a pointer to your next visit. Don't leave it too long as a Michelin star or two cannot be far away and you know what that can do to the prices and the waiting list.

Daphne's

112 Draycott Avenue, SW3 3AE (020 7589 4257)

Price £48.00

Another Italian restaurant that has been favoured by stars, particularly for the lunch time crowd and why not, the food is excellent and the service attentive without being over-bearing. At least it was when I ate there a couple of years ago. It has a novel open space that makes summer dining a real pleasure. Even though they take great pride in sourcing as much of their produce from caring British producers, their risottos and pasta dishes are second to none and are complimented by a fine selection of Italian wines.

Cantina del Ponte

36C Shad Thames, Butler's Wharf, SE1 2YE

Price £25

This is the cheaper version of Sir Terrance Conrans restaurant La Ponte de la Tour, right on the river, overlooking Tower Bridge with spectacular views of the river Thames which make it an excellent summer dining establishment. The menu is traditional Italian fare cooked to perfection. I had a pizza which, having come from their wood fired oven was just sublime and the Tiramisu to follow did not disappoint. The food is well complimented by an extensive wine list.

Bibendum

Michelin House, 81 Fulham Road, SW3 6RD (020 7581 5817)

If seafood is your passion, this is the place for you. Opened by Sir Terrance Conran twenty years ago in the old Michelin Tyre Depot, you will think you are in Paris as you feast on superb fish dishes amid the splendour of the art deco features like the huge stained glass windows. Before you ask, there are also some fine meat dishes that are also cooked to perfection.

Lindsay House

21 Romilly Street, W1D 5AF (020 7439 0450)

If you wish to dine like a Georgian English gentleman with an British menu then you will do no better than Lindsay House where Richard Corrigan, a rising TV star, serves a wonderful menu sourced from the best providers. Pigs trotters or smoked eel salad served in a genteel 18th century drawing room may have you thinking that you will be able to get a sedan chair home. The 21st century will hit you at the end when the espresso is served at nearly £5 per cup which would make even the aristocracy reach for their smelling salts. That said, for those who can afford it, it will remain a unique experience.

Rules

35 Maiden Lane, WC2E 7LB (020 7836 5314)

Price £49.00

Rules has been serving traditional British food for over 200 years and the decor reflects this. To some it is elegant dining, to others it is a bit like an Olde England theme park either way it is a great way to sample some of the finest British cuisine and that includes those glorious English puddings. The only problem is you will need to have the wherewithal of at least a minor member of the aristocracy to pay for the meal.

If you go to the Tate Modern to feed your artistic soul, you will have the choice of two fine restaurants.

Tate Modern Restaurant: Level 7

7th Floor, Tate Modern, Sumner St, SE1 9TG (020 7401 5014 )

Whilst in the Tate Modern, you should take the lift to the 7th floor where, if you can get a window table, you will get some stunning views of the river to accompany your stunning food which luckily is not named after any types of art. The cuisine is modern European and sourced from both Britain and the continent. Views and foods this good do not come cheap so if you are on a modest budget, you might like to try the cafe on the 2nd floor where children are very well catered for.

If you are not too tired then try:-

Northbank
One Paul's Walk, EC4V 2EH (020 7329 9299)

Just a quick stroll across the bridge and you will find this cathedral to the finest provender the South-west of England can supply, cooked to perfection. It doesn't come cheap but after such a meal you will be more than happy to pay. Summer visitors will enjoy the outdoors tables and if you get there sooner you will still be able to marvel at the 'Glass Gherkin' building. Don't forget to take a closer look at the wall paper, it is a modern toile that reflects the City of London surroundings.

Red Fort

77 Dean Street, W1D 3SH (020 7437 2115)

The authentic cuisine of North India has made the Red Fort a focal point for the Indian food afficionados. It is the exquisite cuisine and stylish surroundings that have attracted the good and the great. A definite must for any visitor but beware, you will never quite enjoy your own local take away again.

Myung Ga

1 Kingly Street, W1B 5PA (020 7734 34)

This Korean restaurant is a haven for basic Korean food as the number of Koreans, Chinese and Japanese eating there will demonstrate. This bustling restaurant would be a great place for the novice to be introduced to the tastes of Korea.

Wahaca

66 Chandos Place, London, WC2N 4HG
Average Price: £50

This is a real Mexican restaurant that specialises in street food with ingredients that are ethical and traceable. Authentic is the keyword so be prepared to be surprised if you are used to the usual old tex-mex that has been touted around for years. The sample menu is a good place to start, just be careful of the freshly prepared hot sauces.

Dining On A Budget

Stockpot

18 Old Compton Street, Soho, W1D 4TN

273 Kings Road, London, SW3 5EN

38 Panton Street, London, SW1Y 4EA

Opened in 1958 this small chain of inexpensive restaurants are still providing the capital with nourishing food at affordable prices. The menu is simple British and continental with generous portions. For those on a limited budget this cannot be topped. I have eaten at all these locations and can attest to the quality as does the number of people who you will find eating there.

Yo! Sushi

MyHotel, 11-13 Bayley Street, Bedford Square, WC1B 3HD also at Harrods, Harvey Nichols, Selfridges and many other places.

A fun way to eat sushi that will not break the bank. As you sit, the different sushi goes around on a conveyor belt so you can help yourself from the cooked and raw dishes. A nice, if expensive twist is the water pump at each table.

Rootmaster

Old Truman Brewery, Brick Lane, E1 6QL

If you are looking around the City of London and want something different then this is the place for you, especially if you are a vegetarian and if you are not, then this would be a great introduction to the cuisine. The bonus is that you get to eat on one of what used to be, London landmarks, a big red Routemaster Bus, hence the name pun. Fantastic noodles and falafel made in the shape of burgers make this a truly unique eating experience.

Sticky Fingers' Cafe

1a Phillimore Gardens, Kensington, W8 7EG

When Bill Wyman wasn't Rolling with the Stones he started this restaurant which serves burgers, ribs and tex-mex. The food must be good as it still going strong after many years. Situated in a side street off the High Street Kensington makes it a perfect mid shopping break.

Hard Rock Cafe

150 Old Park La, W1K 1QR, (020 76290382)

The daddy of them all, they set the standard for burgers in London long before any of the chains opened up London. I would tell you when I first went there but I am afraid I might show my age. They have gone global but the ethics are still the same, good food in great surroundings and reasonable prices and you can get the t-shirt.

Pizza Express

Although the Pizza Express is a chain, you will not be disappointed by the quality of the pizzas unless you only like yours made in the deep pan style because they only make the traditional thin crust style. They do have a selection of other dishes available as well. Some of the restaurants have live jazz so you can make an evening of it.

You are now ready to venture out and sample the culinary delights of London, whether it is a fine British menu or something from further afield and you won't necessarily need a bank balance the size of Fort Knox to enjoy them.

The top restaurants, especially those with Michelin stars, may need to be pre-booked so it may be advisable to check before you travel, it would be so disappointing to miss them.

Three ways to grow a herb garden inside

!: Three ways to grow a herb garden inside

I'm on a quest to grow basil in my kitchen.

Last week I did a little research from the seed growing inside, and what type of soil and the plants should be dressed in basil.

This week I would like to share with you some of the things I discovered during the bank's purchase of seed and soil. It is now easier than ever to grow the seeds, and saving a few dollars for the cooking ingredients together.

Although it might be better to go to the local nursery to findWhat are you doing, I went to Home Depot believes that it is easy to navigate, if you're new to gardening. The basic things you need and the employees can obtain general information. In addition, most of the commuter / urban dwellers, as I live near the Home Depot.

I found three different ways to start a garden window.

The first and most important of the traditional method to find the parts you need to put together your own garden:

ship Soil seeds manure(If you can not find - the research has suggested the fish emulsion as fertilizer)

Optional but useful:
trowel small watering can

This method allows greater flexibility in choosing what is right for you.

I found a long, thin the plants out of the window. If you are planning a garden window sill is a good idea to measure the width of the window before leaving, because farmers are too broad.

You can use any type of drillingsimple - plastic, ceramic, decoration - make sure you see a drain hole at the bottom!

There are many types of soil mixes to choose from. I chose a mixture of organic bank that claims to provide an ideal starting seeds and cuttings. Miracle-Gro are on the way I read it contains ingredients that the plants a good dose of nutrients that deplete over time. More of a natural garden basil. Is not important to me that fast-growing plants, so hugeit will be difficult for things down the line.

Finally, the seeds. I chose a basic package, Italian basil, because they want to use to make pesto and other sauces.

If growing indoors, make sure you buy seeds and plants growing circulation. Although many plants can be started indoors, they should be outside when they get big enough. I think that most of the herbs can be grown indoors.

Unfortunately I could not find a fish emulsion fertilizer at homeDepot. I think it should be that after the trip to the local nursery - but I can wait a couple of weeks before planting will increase.

Overall, I spent about $ 15.00 for two bags of organic soil, 24 "planter, plastic and seeds. This is a great way to start your own seeds because they can choose exactly what you want, and get the most for your money. Drawbacks that the risk of errors. The good news is that autonomy is to learn from theerrors.

Seed stocks
There are also several indoor growing kits are available, ranging from $ 9-20 $. These include everything you need to start with - small planters, pellets, seeds and instructions. Sometimes they are acting in a plastic cover mini-greenhouse for seedlings to incubate. Place the pellet in the planter of seeds, add water, and then ... behold.

I also found a strawberry growing stock in a ceramic planter is appealing about $ 10.

He tried to catchSuch a small stocks and go with it. It seems infallible, and you get a bunch of different herbs such as coriander, oregano, chives, sage, and not have to worry about companion planting and thinning seedlings. We can not, because I personally do not want all these different herbs. Some of them, I never use. However, if you use a lot of herbs in the kitchen and cooking adventures, the culture of these stocks are an easy option and cheap to start.

The BiggerInvestment
An interesting point is actually called "AeroGarden," which is also at The Home Depot. This counter is a small hydroponic garden that uses pellets seeds - I think you can also use your own seeds. possible to grow a garden of herbs, strawberries, tomatoes or a small garden with this method.

Prospective mother-in-law, and so far, it works. You set up, fill with water, light, and let him go. It seems that this is a good idea ifTravel a little and the plants are generally not every day, or if there is no place in a sunny garden. We also see the two met in the AeroGarden blog Viggo vegetables.

Like the AeroGarden because you can choose what you want to plant if you want more or less of the grass, or vegetables, so that it is also quite versatile. It could also be a good way to get the hydro. You can grow them indoors all year round. If I had more money, I'll probably invest in this machine.They are more than $ 100.

So what are some ways to start growing a small herb garden indoors. Hopefully one of them will work. It was much easier than I thought would have to go and pick up the supplies I needed, especially after the initial research. If I can do it too!

Energy from algae - A glimmer of hope for the world's Power Hungry

!: Energy from algae - A glimmer of hope for the world's Power Hungry

petrochemical resources are limited, rare, and is expected to have passed. Furthermore, because they have a negative impact on the environment, which led to a widely discussed phenomenon of global warming, fossil fuels must be reduced in both developed and developing countries.

A sustainable CO2-neutral fuels will be highlighted in search systems around the world. Energy production in some plants such as palm oil or rapeMaybe not the best choice because they can be used for food production. Such as hydrogen, which is used by fuel cells to generate electricity, it could be the likely winner because of the lack of green gas-generation fuel cell technologies. Some energy experts also were able to predict that within a few decades the world turns, that life is based on pure hydrogen, where the energy-rich, low cost and nonpolluting.Hydrogen can be extracted from fossil fuels, but thenow more expensive than oil or natural gas directly. The water can be broken down into hydrogen and oxygen by electrolysis, but requires electricity, which again created the fossil fuels and renewable sources like wind and solar energy even more expensive.

The high oil prices, competing demands between foods and other sources of biofuels and the global food crisis, and therefore caused a strong interest in the culture of algae (seaweed farming) for the manufacture of vegetable oil,Biodiesel, ethanol, bio-fuel, bio-methanol, bio-butanol and other biofuels, land use, that are not conducive to agriculture.

Microalgae are single-celled organisms like plants and photosynthetic activity in the conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the biomass. Algae biomass has three main Components: carbohydrates, proteins and natural oils. Therefore capable of producing a number of potential fuels, such as methane production, biological or thermal gasificationEthanol fermentation and production of bio-diesel and direct combustion of biomass of algae in the production of steam or electricity.

Recent research initiatives have shown that the biomass of microalgae appears to be one of the most promising renewable bio-diesel, which is able to meet the global demand for transport fuels. Microalgae are often double the biomass and productivity within 24 hours of high oil prices, they are very desirable in the production of bio-diesel. Usemicroalgae to produce bio-diesel can not endanger the food, feed and other products derived from plants. More than the production of energy from microalgae is largely CO2 neutral because the CO2 absorbed during the growth and CO2 is then released when they are used for power generation. Industrial CO2 emissions can be used as a "re-source, the algae grow faster in the higher CO2 concentration, and therefore more biomass for energy production. Algae andused in the treatment of waste water and can be grown in different environments, freshwater and saltwater.

Microalgae culture has emerged as one of the most promising source of bio-oil, which contribute significantly to future energy supplies.

John Gartner, an article entitled: "Algae: Power Plant of the Future" Gaffron said Hans, a German scholar who fled Germany at the University of Chicago in 1930, observed in 1939 that the algae would be (theTherefore, it is still unknown) change in the production of hydrogen, oxygen, rather than creating, but only for a short period of time.

Under normal circumstances, the algae contain mainly oil and protein, and fat content does not exceed 20% of the total dry weight. But in 1980, it was found that the nutrients in nutritional stress or limited microalgae salty environment some will accumulate up to 72% of their weight, such as lipids (fats). Mass of algae is a typical heating systemsvalue (heat produced by combustion) in 8000 to 10,000 BTU / lb, which is better than lignite, but the calorific value of algae oil and grease 16,000 BTU / lb, which is better than charcoal. The breakthrough finally came just 60 years later, in 1999, when the University of California, Berkeley professor Tasios Melis, and researchers from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, found that depriving the algae of sulfur and oxygen, allowing more hydrogen periodstime.

Mr. Shakeel A Khan, Indian Institute of Scientific Research agri article states: "The algae, a new, renewable energy and carbon sequestration" that there are two very common and practical methods for large-scale production of microalgae.

Lake) Raceway: This is a closed recirculation channel, which is usually about 0.3 m deep. There is a wheel, which mixes and distributes the biomass. Flow introduced in the corners to put the embarrassment of the flow channel.Raceway canals were built, compacted earth or concrete, and usually covered with white plastic. During the day, the culture is fed continuously in front of the impeller, where the flow begins. Broth is collected behind the wheel at the end of the circulation loop. The impeller works every time, to prevent settling.

b) photobioreactors (PBS): PBS has been used successfully to produce large quantities of micro-algal biomass. PB is practicallyA single species of microalgae culture for longer. PB pipe is a law made clear tubes, which are usually made of plastic or glass. Solar tubes are generally 0.1 m or less in diameter. diameter of the tube is limited because the light does not penetrate too deeply into the thick broth that is necessary for high productivity of biomass in the RCP. Micro-algae soup orbiting a reservoir to the solar collector and back totank.

The potential of microalgae for the production of liquid fuels has led to the creation of hundreds of companies in the field and extensive research is being carried out to identify the process efficient and profitable for the commercial production of algal bio oils. Nevertheless, there are only a handful of efforts that are close to the pilot fuel, including oil and Cell Sapphire Energy, which is supported in part by Shell Oil.

The patentedraceway ponds using a mixture of technology and the budget for the production of bio-fuels from algae oil in the HR Technology Bio. In his pilot factory, a selective strain of algae is grown in the PB under steady conditions, which promote cell division and continue to prevent contamination of the culture of other agencies. The main body of the production DB long series of four temperature and pH controlled tubes that are connected in parallel. Process Schematicthe figure above. The algae are exposed to the sun, while he was suspended in order to maximize growth. Subsequently, the algae through the PBS is an open lake, which is based on wheels, recirculating raceway, a durable plastic coating. The goal here is to expose the cells to nutrient depletion and other environmental stresses that lead to the synthesis of biodiesel as quickly as possible. Environmental stresses that induce the production of oil can be applied quicklyTransfer to the open pond culture in PB. Lakes, such as PBS, exposed to direct sunlight. Depending on the desired product, harvested from the lake 2 or 3 days and the algae cells are concentrated by gravity into the mud, the excess water is removed by suction and then further concentrated by centrifugation. Wet biomass, and then dried. Oil and other by-products are extracted by a process of its own.

Talking about India, the country consumes oil at a rate well below theproduction rates, leaving them dependent on foreign oil supplies. While the oil is not growing at 5-6%, and India will be depleted within 20 years the current rate of extraction. Approximately 70% of the oil occurring in automobiles, the development of liquid fuels used in motor vehicles is vital that biofuels are a viable option. However, the fuels made from crops in a country as densely populated, food security, the bad and the limited arable land, whichdifficult and dangerous. Side table compares the production capacity of biofuels from various sources. According to the "Biodiesel 2010 - According to a study of the global market," India has 60 million hectares of arable land is not available to produce Jatropha, and intends to replace 20% of Jatropha oil-based biodiesel. India has one of the biggest manufacturer in the world of algae and this alternative may be particularly useful in India, where commercial production is carriedgeneral human consumption. Biodiesel from algae can be replaced or mixed with regular diesel, the main fuel vehicles in India.

Extensive research is to identify specific strains of algae and the methods and technology that Bio-fuels from algae can be directly used in transportation, and fossil fuels should not be confused.

But the battle is just beginning. 2 edition of the Biodiesel 2020 study finds the biodiesel industry is entering a newera of transition to alternative materials, new technologies, and government policies for sustainable food revised inventory and fuels. All such transitions provide significant growth opportunities and challenges for developers of biodiesel producers, feedstock producers, and entrepreneurs.

On the other hand, according to U.S. energy policy adviser and Daniel Kamm, the most interesting of the algae, it is a joker. The algae is a great player, but now thatreal breakthroughs are needed for a range of reasonable size, the production of algae oil, enough to run even a car. Christen Coogner by new discoveries, but the algae to the fuel source is currently the largest energy density of the organic, the cost of producing algae oil is priceless. The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that the Bio-fuel cost about 8 $ per gallon at the pump. Other experts also designed to cost more than $ 50 per gallon due to inefficiencyproduction and harvesting methods.

Kansas State University engineer Wenquiao Yuan and his colleagues, because the algae that grow on floating platforms in the ocean acres businesses significantly reduce costs associated with production of algal oil free light, nutrients, temperature controlled water. However, an inevitable problem for the marine environment - such as the weather is over.

Some reports also suggest that there will be at least 10-15years before we can hope to find a proper solution to this. Thus, the future of the industrial production of bio-fuels for energy and algae is not yet clear. Although the pilot testing and research continues, more and more money and resources dedicated employees worldwide and is expected to continue to use the focus on energy conservation and efficient use of electricity and thermal energy. We must recognize that there is a lot cheaper and easierto save energy than to produce more renewable sources and the environmental impact of increasing fossil fuel production is already there in the world.

Penile implant

These are the most drastic and irreversible implementation of an artificial erection. Only if all other measures have been exhausted and no long-term effects in that the penis implant are warranted. These neutral silicone implants that are surgically inserted into the penis. normal erection is achieved then. Penile implants are of two types:

Passive Implants: Two rod is inserted into the siliconepenis, which remains standing still. The silicone rod can be positioned in different angles, but this can be a source of confusion in the public events such as swimming. Orgasm can be achieved if there are hormonal factors that hinder or upset.

Active Implants: These inflatable silicone implanted into the pockets of the penis. The penis remains in the flaccid state for good management of the prosthesis due to inflation and erection. One type of implantactivated by pressing the glans (penis head) with one hand. The liquid is transferred from one container to the main inflatable bags. The other type, the liquid container is implanted in the scrotum, and can be pumped by hand.

Other treatments

Other non-surgical and surgical treatments of impotence is considered a pilot basis, and there may be a promising future, some of them. For example, groups of doctors in Russia and GermanyExamination of the electrical stimulation of the outer shell of a swimming pool in the abdomen and back. There are already commercial devices using this principle, which seems to increase blood flow to the genital area. Directly stimulate the pelvic nerve (which is caused by the erection of a nerve), using implanted electrodes and an electrical pacemaker-like are also envisaged.

"Natural" or alternative methods abound. They range from the "natural" foods, whichhigh testosterone and DHEA, such as green oats (marketed under the brand SEXATIVA) and Saw Palmetto, yoga exercises to increase muscle tone and circulation to the genital area. It is not clear whether there are any real impact, or they are simply a suggestion or a placebo effect of phenomena.

However, one thing has been scientifically established. Increase in blood testosterone levels immediately after exercise, or excessive weight loss. Thus, in a natural way to fight the lightHypogonadism can be frequent exercise and a healthy weight.
