How can elderly men eat and have a healthy prostate? Prostatic hyperplasia and hypertrophy are inevitable after aging. Male friends after the age of 50 have a high risk of disease. Experts suggest drinking a glass of tomato juice at breakfast; At lunch, eat a bowl containing carrots or boiled vegetables; Eating some beans at dinner is good for preventing and curing prostate.
Generally speaking, the early clinical manifestation of prostate disease is the increase in the number of urination, the dripping phenomenon after urination, and some people will also have hematuria symptoms. So, what is hematuria.
Prostatic hyperplasia is the most common disease in elderly men. It often occurs after the age of 50. Its early clinical manifestations include increased urination frequency, shorter range of urine line, and dripping after urination. Some people also have hematuria symptoms.
The most common cause of hematuria is benign diseases, such as cystitis, urinary calculus and tuberculosis. Of course, we should also pay special attention to urinary system tumors.
Clinically, a large amount of bleeding caused by prostatic hyperplasia is rare, and most of it is still microscopic hematuria. The prostate is an organ rich in blood vessels. After hyperplasia, the blood vessels of the prostate are more abundant.
The enlarged prostate body presses against the bladder and urethra. With each urination, it is continuously impacted by urine and squeezed and restricted by the urethral sphincter and pelvic muscles, which will lead to rupture of blood vessels in the prostate and hematuria.
The best way is to prevent. Patients with BPH should have a full understanding of their condition and actively treat it to minimize the possibility of hematuria.
Even if there is hematuria, don't be nervous. Go to the hospital as soon as possible. A small amount of hematuria can be improved after conservative treatment.
Eating pumpkin seeds regularly can not only prevent the occurrence of kidney stones, but also promote patients to discharge stones. More importantly, the active ingredients and rich zinc in pumpkin seeds have health effects on the prostate. Research shows that when men lack zinc in their blood, the prostate will swell and proliferate. Under normal circumstances, the zinc content in the prostate is higher than that in other organs of the human body. This is because the synthesis of male androgens requires zinc as a mineral. Therefore, eating a handful of pumpkin seeds every day can prevent prostate hypertrophy and improve sexual function.
When a man is old, it is inevitable that he will have hyperplasia and hypertrophy of the prostate. Male friends after the age of 50 have a high risk of disease. Men should learn to eat correctly to protect the prostate!
