If you have any of these symptoms, you should visit your doctor for assessment.? These days a simple blood test for PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) will distinguish benign prostate enlargements from malignant or cancerous growth.? Talk to your doctor as well as or before beginning to take supplements.<\/p>\n<p>The prostate gland surrounds the urethra, and so any enlargement of this gland affects the ability to urinate.? The most common problem is Benign Prostatic Hyperplasty (BPH), a benign condition affecting about half of men over 50 years of age.? A less common condition is prostatitis, a bacterial infection developing in the urinary tract.? Swelling of the prostate due to to this, or to a tumour, will also affect urination.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Zinc<\/strong> has been shown to reduce the size of the prostate gland and to relieve BPH symptoms.? If you take zinc for a longer period, you should add some copper.? Vitamin E is also thought to preserve prostate health.<\/p>\n<p>THe most generally taken supplement is <strong>Saw Palmetto<\/strong> (or &#8220;old mans herb&#8221;).? Saw Palmetto alters the hormone levels, responsible for?prostate enlargement?and also curbs inflammation and swelling in chronic cases.? Saw Palmetto is available as a supplement, and doses of around 160 milligram twice a day is often used.<\/p>\n<p>Saw Palmetto is a small palm tree growing wild from Texas to California, and the saw-toothed leaves give the herb its name.? The medicinal properties come from the blue-black berries on the plant.? Native Americans have used Saw Palmetto for generations to help with urinary tract disorders, as well as for general health and vitality.<\/p>\n<p>Studies have seen that Saw Palmetto has less side effects such as impotence and faster results than surgery in some cases.? The herb has a bitter taste, so if you are taking the supplements in liquid form you may want to dilute it with water.<\/p>\n<p>Flaxseed Oil is also taken to help prevent swelling and inflammation of the prostate.? A Harvard study found that lycopene, found in tomatoes, can be helpful, decreasing the cancer rate in the particular study.? Cooked tomatoes contain more lycopene than uncooked, and cooking the tomatoes in olive oil can help the absorption of lycopene.<\/p>\n<p><small style=\"color:#666666;background-color: #ffffff;\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tProstate cancer kills many men each year.
