Men’ s Health: Natural health approaches for better prostate health
Diets high in saturated animal fats or red meat could be linked to high levels of this disease in Western countries. It is advisable to reduce the intake of saturated animal fats and to eat fresh fruit and vegetables as this may lower the risk of prostate cancer.
Lifestyle Changes Taking a preventative stance against poor prostate health is sensible. Certainly, decreasing the amount of fast food, alcohol, and sexual partners would be beneficial for prostate health and can make the prostate a little more resilient to disease or to infections.
Salted foods and alcohol build toxins in the body that can impact the immune system and lymphatic tissues that cleanse the blood. Where there is unhealthy blood in the sexual and urinary parts of the body, this can lead to dysfunction in these areas.
Increase Exercise Exercise increases the flow of oxygen and blood throughout the body. Increased exercise equates to less fat tissue which has unhealthy toxins that can be excreted from the body. It will help balance glucose levels in the bloodstream; this is important as this can prevent the growth of cancerous cells in the prostate.
Diet Diet has been found to affect or relieve problems impacting the prostate. Zinc has been found to be a very useful mineral and can be found in the following:
• Pumpkin seeds
• Sunflower seeds
• Sesame seeds
• Peanuts
• Chocolate
• Omega 3 fatty acids( excellent for controlling bad cholesterol)
