The prostate is a group of small glands that surround the urethra at the point where it leaves the bladder. It is a part of the male reproductive system. The prostate gland's main function is to secrete a fluid that carries sperm. At the time of male orgasm, the muscular gland of the prostate helps to push the prostate fluid, in addition to sperm that was produced in the testicles, into the urethra. The semen then leaves the body out through the tip of the penis during ejaculation. Nearly every man over forty-five has some form of prostate enlargement and in most cases, it is not a harmful condition. However, due to its location, near the urethra, an enlarged gland may cause some urinary problems. If urine is not passing properly, it can cause kidney issues. In most cases, an enlarged prostate is benign but can be quite an annoying condition. There are some natural remedies that are regarded all over the world that are helpful when dealing with an enlarged prostate. One of them is the herb Saw Palmetto. Saw Palmetto seems to work well with pygeum, nettles, zinc and beta sisosterol. Also, avoid caffeinated drinks and alcohol.
About 40,000 men die from prostate cancer every year. It is a disease that all men should know about. We do not know exactly what causes prostate cancer, there are some studies supporting soy to be included in your diet as preventative measure. Tofu, miso or soy milk that contains hormone-like compounds may help reduce the risk of prostate cancer. Tomato based products contain a type of carotenoid, lycopene. This seems to block the growth of prostate tumors. These are some on-going studies.
Selenium is also available in 'high selenium yeasts', which may contain as much as 1,000 to 2,000 micrograms of selenium per gram. According to the National Institute of Health, most of the selenium in these yeasts is in the form of selenomethionine. This form was used in the large scale cancer prevention trial in 1983, which demonstrated that taking a daily supplement containing 200 micrograms of selenium per day could lower the risk of developing prostate, lung, and colorectal cancer. Some yeasts may contain inorganic forms of selenium, which are not utilized as well as selenomethionine.
