Six Prostate Secrets Nobody Ever Talks About

There are many ways we can keep the prostate gland healthy and at the same time relieve discomfort. Apart from medication and prostate massage, here are six tips nobody ever talks about which will keep the gland in good shape.

The Cancer Council Victoria in Australia has just announced the results of a study into the relationship between prostate cancer and ejaculation in men. Masturbation is no longer a taboo subject and the study published in the British Journal of Urology International suggests that frequent ejaculation by whatever means will keep the gland healthy. The more the ducts from the gland are cleared of debris and toxins, including any carcinogens in the prostatic fluid, the better it is.

Mnay options are available if you want to consider homeopathic treatment. The best known ones are :- Thuja Occidentalis ( Arbor Vitae), Cantharis (Spanish Fly), Hydrangea ( Seven Barks), and Solidago Virga (Golden Rod). Sometimes men suffer from a painful orgasm or the bladder is irritated because it is working overtime. These medicines help relieve other symptoms of chronic prostatitis as well.

The German word for sitting is 'sitz' and that has given its name to a type of hot bath which is ideal for stimulating the blood flow in the pelvic region. The bath is an upright one in which only the buttocks and hips are immersed in the water. You can add pine needle oil or lavender to make it more pleasurable. You need to sit in this type of bath for at least 30 minutes because you have to allow the heat time to penetrate all that fat and muscles before it will give you relief from your pain. Once you have finished spray the area with as much cold water as you can bear. The cold water is acting like a sponge in squeezing out the blood vessels and you are getting rid of all the toxins and stagnant blood.

Green tea is well known as a powerful antioxidant. In addition it is also one of the few substances which we drink which has the power to kill off cancerous cells but leaves the healthy cells in place. This process of apoptosis goes on all the time in the body but there are not many substances outside the human body which can perform this function. That is why green tea has had such a good press. A word of warning - as green tea contains caffeine, it should be consumed in modest quantities.

Dieting is always important and avoiding excessive amounts of alcohol, caffeine, spicy foods and red meat. Try to replace those foods with plenty of fruit and vegetables, white meat, chicken and soya. Tomatoes are a great source of lycopene which is helpful in reducing the size of the prostate. Any foods which contain selenium and Vitamin E are also a great help.

Urinating in a sitting position is recommended as this will help to drain the bladder more effectively than when standing. In this way, the toxins are excreted more efficiently. An exercise to tone the muscles around the prostate can be done by squeezing the buttocks for a few seconds, then relaxing. Do this as many times as you can in a session, but increase the number gradually.

This article has revealed six secrets about looking after your prostate and keeping it healthy. These are possible alternatives to medication but some of them can also be used to complement other treatments. You should consider these and try them before deciding on massage and/or surgery.
