Smart Prostate Solutions
Eat Healthy Fruits, Vegetables, Fish, And Avoid Fatty Foods
A diet high in fruits and vegetables has been linked to a lower risk of all kinds of health problems. Research is cloudy as to why or how compounds in fruit and vegetables may help, but rates of enlarged prostate are highest in countries where diets have high saturated fat content. So dont stop eating fruits and vegetables! The fresher the better. Eat foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids such as mackerel, herring and salmon (basically any oily fish). Research suggests that diets rich in omega-3s lower the risks of all types of health problems.
Exercise Daily
Go for a walk and get out and do something. Don't be a couch potato! And don't get heavy. Overweight men have a 25% greater chance of developing prostate problems. There may be no current evidence that links exercise with a lower risk of prostate problems. But there is evidence that links exercise to better prostate health. Prostate problems have been tied to obesity possibly because prostate cells are fueled particularly well by fat. Exercise improves overall physical and mental well-being. So many doctors endorse getting at LEAST 30 minutes of exercise per week. Other doctors advise you to do what feels good for your body. So if you need to exercise more, then exercise more. Studies indicate that regular exercise increases the flow of oxygen to the soft tissues of the body and helps to stabilize glucose levels in the bloodstream. For high glucose levels may fuel prostate enlargement, much in the same way that fat cells seem to.
Have 35-50g of Soy Protein Every Day
Have 35-50g of soy protein every day. Study after study seems to show that diet is one of the major factors in relation with prostate problems. Incidences of prostate problems and mortality rates in Asian countries are much lower than in the United States. And research suggests that one reason for this may be the high soy content in the Asian diet. A study published in October of 2004 by the Urological Sciences Research Foundation stated that when Japanese men move to the United States and adopt a Western lifestyle, their health problems sky-rocket! According to many published journals, including the International Journal of Health, regular consumption of soy-protein-containing foods and beverages may reduce the risk of prostate problems in men by as much as 30 percent. Bottom line: soy is great for your prostate, eat it in bulk!
Visit your Doctor Regularly & Know The Facts
No one wants to go see a doctor, especially for a prostate exam! Senator Bob Dole summed it up recently. "Either because of fear of embarrassment or whatever, they won't see their doctor," Dole said in a speech at the American Urological Association's annual meeting in May. "And its not fair to their wife or children or their job or their community if they dont see their doctor," he added. Also, keep yourself educated with regular visits to the website www.prostatehealthfoundation.org, and seek out prostate information from other sources. You will have up-to-date information on the most recent studies and the latest products available to help you avoid prostate problems. As the adage goes: The best offense is a good defense!
Take Prostavar
Having the ability to care for your prostate with supplements is an opportunity you must take advantage of. Like Einstein once said, "What is the point of reading the world's greatest books? If you dont put their lessons to use, you are then no different from the illiterate man who has not read them." Men rave about how well Prostavar works, and science has confirmed it. Prostavar will take care of current symptoms and is a smart proactive decision for men who have little or no signs of prostate problems. It is the most intelligently-designed and potent prostate supplement available on the market and should be taken daily.
Have More Sex
Easier said than done, right? But it's the actual ejaculation that benefits you, rather than the actual act of having sex. Researchers say it's the ejaculation--not sex--that protects the prostate. In fact, a recent Australian study showed masturbating three or more times a week offered the same amount of prostate defense. "Seminal fluid contains substances that are carcinogenic," says Graham Giles, PhD, the lead study author. "Regular ejaculation flushes out toxins from your prostate."
Go Easy On The Booze
Aside from feeling lousy all the time, drinking too much alcohol will pile on the calories and put pressure on your organs to deal with more toxins. If you are going to drink, the best alcohol to have is red wine. It has become overwhelmingly apparent that an ingredient found in red wine, called resveratrol, is extremely beneficial to virtually all aspects of your health including your prostate. It is recommended that you drink one or two glasses of red wine per day. Another proponent of red wine is fitness guru Jack Lalanne. His basic health philosophy is this: exercise every day, eat nothing that is man-made, and drink one to two glasses of red wine a day. At 94 and still going strong, he may be right. For he has virtually zero prostate problems!
