Reproductive Rights as Human Rights
[ send me this essay ]
This is an 18 page paper discussing reproductive rights as a human right. Reproductive rights represents a component of human rights as promoted by the international community in regards to the “right to health and family planning; the right to life, freedom, integrity and security; the right not to be assaulted or exploited sexually; the right not to be tortured or to be the object of cruel, inhuman, degrading punishment or treatment; the right not to be subject to sex-based discrimination; the right to privacy; the right to intimacy; and the right to enjoy scientific progress and the right to consent to be an object of experimentation”. These basic human rights extend to include reproductive rights in many different areas of concern. Firstly, the international community has promoted the concept of reproductive rights in order to provide education and support for family planning, contraceptive options and safe abortion and health care environment to people who desire these rights and are in need of these rights. These concerns are mainly to address the growing number of women who die on an annual basis from unsupervised or illegal abortions and also to promote contraception use in order to prevent unplanned pregnancies, the spread of sexually transmitted diseases and HIV/AIDS. Second, on the basis of equal human rights, family planning and reproductive rights extend to both men and women although quite often the focus is on the sexual exploitation of women. Finally, reproductive rights also extend to those who wish to have children and who may also use the human right to use the benefit of scientific progress to do so which includes the use of the reproductive technologies of in-vitro fertilization, donor insemination, and cloning if desired. Because reproductive rights are based on desire and basic human rights for the individual decision in regards to reproduction, population growth arguments do not provide a good basis for conflict as some countries use reproductive rights to control population growth, other countries use reproductive rights to promote population growth.

Research on “Runner’s High”: Endorphins, Side Effects and Addiction
[ send me this essay ]
This is a 10 page paper discussing the issues of “runner’s high”. A literature review involving “runner’s high” reveals that several areas of research have been associated with this phenomenon. During intense exercise, endorphins, originally known as endogenous morphine, are released into the blood stream resulting in a feeling of euphoria and peace for those who experience it. The release rate varies in individuals but it is generally found that it occurs at around 76% of the maximum heart rate. While increased endorphin levels have been associated with several positive side effects, many negative side effects have also been found especially in female athletes. High endorphin levels inhibit the release of a hormone needed for menstruation, luteinizing hormone (LH), resulting in menstrual complications or amenorrhea. In addition to possible side effects, researchers have also stipulated that running and exercising can be addictive. Endorphin release is also associated with alcoholism, smoking and over-eating, all considered to be addictive. However, many athletes feel that addiction to running or other forms of exercise can be considered a positive addiction as exercise can lead to a reduction in cholesterol levels and better cardiovascular health overall. While this may be true in most cases, exercise has also been found to be addictive to the level where some people eventually experience deterioration in their professional and personal lives and need counselling, psychotherapy and antidepressants in order to overcome their addiction.
