Prevention of benign prostatic hyperplasia. Used diet and folk remedies.
Some men, under assumptions of physicians, more than half, believe that prevention of such diseases as prostate adenoma is a futile exercise. There is a misconception that the disease will appear for fifty years, in spite of all efforts. In fact, BPH can be avoided.
The exact causes of BPH have not been identified.
However, experts call the most common factors that increase the risk of disease:
- Changes in hormonal balance of the body;
- Sedentary life, burdened addictions;
- The lack of treatment of chronic diseases, including cardiovascular pathologies;
- Exposure to adverse environmental conditions, for example, persistent hypothermia.

Diet is especially necessary for men after 40
This is one of the most challenging aspects of prevention of BPH. Diet which is recommended by specialists-urologists, can be used for prevention and treatment. Since about forty years, the male body adjusts and requires more careful attention. For maintaining all body systems in a healthy condition (including cardiovascular) proper diet is indispensable. It also helps to balance the hormones at least partially.
You should first abandon all greasy. And even lean meat is recommended to limit the consumption. Smoked foods should be consumed rarely, like dishes with lots of spices, salt and pepper. Alcohol should be excluded from use. It is best to completely give up beer: it negatively affects hormonal balance and irritates the urinary tract.
Ideal is a milk-vegetable diet. It favoured all types of dairy, and especially dairy products.
We recommend drinking fresh vegetable and fruit juices. Vegetables and a variety of fruits become the basis of nutrition. Such a diet reduces the amount of excess weight and moreover prevents the development of obesity. And this is another risk factor for BPH.
For those who find it difficult to remember all these rules, there is one simple limitation: vegetable fats instead of animal. On this principle is constructed the power supply system in Japan and China.
