      Prostate

      Includes

      Benign prostatic hyperplasia, BPH.

      Description

      Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), is characterized by a benign tumour that develops in the prostate. It generally affects men over 50.

      In a case of benign prostatic hyperplasia, the prostate enlarges and exerts increased pressure on the urethra and bladder, which interferes with normal urine flow.

      From a naturopathic perspective, benign prostatic hyperplasia can be well managed through diet and supplements.

      Dietary Considerations

      Eat an alkaline diet (see section on Acidosis). Reduce your consumption of sugars as much as possible. Reduce your intake of or eliminate coffee. Consume at least 1 tablespoon of "good fat" (e.g. hempseed oil, flaxseed oil or cold-pressed olive oil) every day. Reduce your intake of or eliminate dairy products.
