Feeding Prostate

Ideally, people would get all the nutrients and vitamins they need from food.  Unfortunately many people start with a nutrient deficit because our food-  products are designed to produce good-looking items that don’t spoil on the way  to the consumer instead of nutrient-packed, healthful foods. That’s why most  people must turn to supplements. Liquid and natural supplements are much easier  for our bodies to process, and are more easily absorbed.

Supplements that  specifically benefit the prostate include zinc, kelp, nettles,  pygeum, saw palmetto, avena sativa and green tea.

• Zinc: This mineral is a major component  of ejaculate. Zinc strengthens the immune system, is vital for strong bones and  reproduction, and regulates both sugar and blood cholesterol.
• Kelp: A seaweed  rich in minerals and iodine that help to prevent and treat prostate cancer.
• Nettles: Contain iron, vitamin C, and other nutrients that can strengthen the  prostate. It can be taken in a variety of forms.
• Pygeum: This  herb has been used to treat diseases of the prostate and urinary tract in Europe  for many years. It has been shown to shrink enlarged prostates in many studies.
• Saw palmetto: This herb is believed to shrink enlarged prostates and to lower  PSA.
• Avena sativa: Rich in calcium mucin and silicic acid, avena sativa tones  the nervous system .
• Green tea : New research suggests that green tea may help prevent the spread of prostate  cancer. Specifically phytochemicals in green tea, called polyphenols attack  growth factors and proteins, interrupting growth processes of tumors, thus  preventing them from spreading to other organs. Since earlier studies suggests  that the same natural plant substances might also help prevent the start of  prostate cancer, researchers indicate that more studies are needed on green  tea’s affect on fighting this common cancer. The best way to reduce your risk of  prostate cancer still lies in eating a mostly vegetarian diet.

Studies on diet and cancer also show that green tea when tested with mice  with an aggressive form of cancer can decrease the spread or metastasis of  prostate cancer to liver, bone, and other parts of the body. Additional study of green tea may help develop a treatment to prevent the dormant, non threatening  type of prostate cancer many men have in their 70’s & 80’s from becoming  aggressive and fatal. Around six cups of green tea per day would contain the  equivalent amount of polyphenols for individuals to help block the spread of  cancer. Other data shows that the phytochemicals in green tea could inhibit the  early phases of prostate cancer development.
