In addition to easily inducing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and hyperglycemia, excessive obesity can also cause certain "harm" to the prostate of men, thereby increasing the probability of adult men suffering from various prostate diseases.
There are two reasons why excessive obesity can cause "harm" to the prostate: 1. The prostate is adjacent to the lower abdomen and perineum of the human body; 2. The lower abdomen and perineum of the human body are prone to accumulation of fat.
Modern medicine points out that the accumulation of fat in the lower abdomen and perineum can cause indirect compression of the prostate adjacent to the lower abdomen and perineum, especially in sitting and lying positions. This indirect compression can be particularly evident.
"If the prostate is subjected to long-term indirect compression, the capillaries inside the prostate will become narrow or even occluded, thereby affecting the normal blood circulation of the prostate, causing a blockage in the blood circulation of the prostate.".
Once the blood circulation of the prostate is impeded, its metabolism and nutritional supply function will be affected. Without normal nourishment and maintenance, its disease resistance and immunity will also decrease, thereby increasing the risk of various prostate diseases for men.
Therefore, in order to ensure the health of the prostate, obese or slightly obese adult men should, in addition to paying attention to a reasonable diet, adhere to exercising more, drinking more water, and burning fat to alleviate the indirect pressure of excess fat in the lower abdomen and perineum on the prostate.
