For many people, the ability to last longer during sex is a desirable goal that enhances pleasure and intimacy.
In this guide, we’ll discuss six tips to help both men and women improve their sexual stamina and prolong the pleasure of intimate moments.
Practice Mindfulness and Relaxation Techniques
Mindfulness techniques, such as deep breathing exercises and meditation can help calm the mind and reduce anxiety during sex.
By focusing on the present moment and letting go of worries, you can achieve a state of relaxation that promotes se3ual stamina.
Engage in Regular Exercise
Regular physical activity not only improves overall health but also enhances your sexual stamina.
Are you aware cardiovascular exercises, strength training, and yoga can boost endurance? Yes, they can also increase blood flow to the pelvic region, and improve control over arousal and ejaculation.
Aren’t Kegel exercises just for women, you ask? No, they can also benefit men by strengthening the pelvic floor muscles responsible for ejaculatory control.
This is an exercise that involves the repeated contracting and relaxing of the muscles that form part of the pelvic floor. Kegel exercises can help men achieve better control over their orgasms and prolong sexual encounters.
Explore Different Positions
Exploring different sexual positions can help you find what works best for you and your partner in terms of prolonging sexual pleasure.
I doubt you’re going against any of the scriptures if you try something new. Explore beyond missionary. But if you choose not to, you’re probably going against ‘scripture’ that preaches about a couple’s satisfaction in bed.
Communicate with your partner
Open and honest communication with your partner is necessary for improving sexual stamina. How often do you get feedback? Oh, it does exist here too, not only when you make inquiries from network providers.
Discussing preferences, desires, and concerns can help you and your partner feel more comfortable in exploring different positions to prolong sexual pleasure together.
Prioritize Foreplay
If you’re the type that goes straight to the point in talks, you need to explore another habit here. Engaging in extended periods of foreplay can help build arousal gradually and delay the onset of orgasm.
Focusing on pleasurable activities such as kissing, caressing, and oral sex can heighten excitement and prolong the overall sexual experience.
Lasting longer during sex is something that requires patience and practice. By applying these tips, you can control arousal and prolong sexual pleasure.
Also, remember that the key to lasting long in bed lies in understanding your body and that of your partner.

Resident doctors end warning strike

Striking resident doctors yesterday ended their seven-day industrial action.
The strike was meant to persuade the government and security agencies to rescue one of their colleagues, Dr. Ganiyat Popoola-Olawale, who has been in her abductors’ den since December 27, last year.
The warning strike, which began on August 26, faced strong opposition from the Federal Government, which threatened to enforce a ‘no work, no pay’ policy against their doctors.
The government expressed disappointment over the union’s decision to embark on the strike, claiming that despite being informed of the various steps it was taking to address the situation, the union still went on strike.
Despite this threat, the doctors saw the strike to its end.
Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors (NARD) President Dele Abdullahi said the association would reassess the Federal Government’s actions over the next three weeks to ensure meaningful progress.
He said: “We are suspending the strike now. We will be meeting to review the progress the government has made in the next three weeks. “

A leading DNA testing centre in Lagos, Smart DNA, has released its 2024 report on DNA testing in Nigeria.
The report unveils astonishing findings that shed light on societal dynamics, economic factors, and changing family structures in Nigeria.
The report, News Agency of Nigeria reports showed paternity uncertainty remained high.
It said 27 per cent of paternity tests came back negative, indicating more than one in four men tested were not the biological fathers of the children.
It also showed Immigration Tests surge, indicating the “Japa” trend was high.
The report noted increase in DNA tests for immigration purposes, growing more than any other test type, as more Nigerians seek opportunities abroad.
The trend suggested a number of parents with dual citizenship were processing paperwork for their children’s emigration
On regional dominance, it showed Lagos dominated.
About 73.1 per cent of DNA tests were conducted in Lagos with a stark divide between Mainland (67.5 per cent) and Island (32.5 per cent).
This concentration highlighted the economic divide in Lagos and across Nigeria, raising questions about access to such services in other parts.
It also showed the Yoruba accounted for 53 per cent of tests, followed by Igbo (31.3 per cent), with Hausa at 1.20 per cent.
Smart DNA’s Operations Manager, Elizabeth Digia said: “These findings offer a unique window into changing dynamics of families and society.
“The high rate of negative paternity tests and surge in immigration-related testing are particularly noteworthy.
“They reflect broader societal trends that merit further discussion and research.
“The concentration of testing in Lagos also raises important questions about accessibility and awareness of DNA testing services across Nigeria.
“As a company, we’re committed to expanding access to our services nationwide while maintaining the highest standards of accuracy and confidentiality,” she said.

NAFDAC Speaks On Saccharine Use In Bread Production
![](https://naijablitznews.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Bread-1.jpeg)
The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) on Tuesday refuted claims made in a recent video circulating online suggesting that Nigerians should avoid bread due to the alleged use of saccharine in its production.
In a press release signed by the Director General of NAFDAC, Prof Christianah Adeyeye, the agency, clarified that the video’s content does not reflect the agency’s stance.
While it acknowledged that the use of saccharine in bread is not permitted by the Nigerian Industrial Standard (NIS) or the Codex General Standard for Food Additives (GSFA), NAFDAC emphasized that it has not advised consumers to avoid bread.
Adeyeye stated that the agency remains committed to safeguarding public health and will continue to take appropriate action against any baker found to be using unapproved food additives.
“Any baker found to be using unapproved food additives, in this case, saccharine, is appropriately sanctioned in line with the extant regulatory provisions,” Adeyeye said.
The agency’s clarification comes in response to a video that claimed NAFDAC had raised concerns about the widespread use of saccharine in bread production due to the high cost of sugar.
The video’s reporter had advised consumers to avoid bread until further notice.
The statement reads in part, “The attention of the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) has been drawn to a video circulating on social media titled: “Bread sold in markets failing laboratory tests, NAFDAC raises fresh alarm”.
The reporter stated that NAFDAC had raised a concern that “most of the bread in the market are failing laboratory tests because producers are using saccharine to bake bread more than they are using sugar due to the high cost of sugar.”
“As a responsive regulatory Agency, NAFDAC wishes to provide clarification that the content of the video on avoiding bread in Nigeria does not reflect the observation of NAFDAC which was made during a stakeholders engagement held on 16th August 2024 in Ibadan, Oyo State.
At no time during that engagement with stakeholders did NAFDAC suggest that Nigerians should avoid bread baked and sold in Nigeria. The Agency is a responsible regulator and does not make general statements capable of causing panic and fear in the population.
Any baker found to be using unapproved food additives, in this case, saccharine, is appropriately sanctioned in line with the extant regulatory provisions.
“The Nigerian Industrial Standard (NIS) does not permit the use of saccharine in bread. This is the same for the Codex General Standard for Food Additives (GSFA), an authoritative reference point for food additives, which also does not permit the use of saccharine in bread.
Like other food additives, sweeteners usually undergo thorough risk assessments for safety by an Expert Body, the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) before approval for use.
“NAFDAC dissociates herself from the comment of the reporter in the circulating video about avoiding bread in Nigeria.
This is the personal statement of the reporter who does not speak for the Agency. NAFDAC wishes to reassure the public that the Agency remains fully alive to her responsibilities of safeguarding the health of the public.”
NAFDAC further assured the public that it is actively monitoring the food market and taking necessary steps to ensure the safety of food products consumed in Nigeria.
