In the eighties and nineties of the last century, the hypertrophy of the prostate was basically irrelevant to the prime of life. At that time, the hypertrophy of the prostate was the matter of the old men. Why is it that in just a few decades, prostate hypertrophy has reached its prime 20 years ahead of schedule? Let's start with prostatic hypertrophy.
Where is the prostate?
Yes, it is such a small organ,
What are his main physiological functions?
1. A "gate" for controlling urination and ejaculation;
2. Maintain normal sexual function;
3. Maintain normal reproductive function;
4. Complete urination and ejaculation,
5. The androgen converter converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone with physiological activity, and maintains the normal physiological function of tissues and organs of the whole body.
Prostatic hypertrophy is also called prostatic hyperplasia,
In the past, men in their early 40s are unlikely to have prostate hypertrophy. In recent years, there are many men in their early 40s who come to the clinic for frequent urination, unclean urination, slow urination and other reasons. At the beginning, they often think it is related to urinary tract infection and urinary tract stones. Further examination turned out to be prostate hypertrophy.
The reason why a middle-aged man is fat is that he eats too well
The age of prostate hypertrophy is an important reason and the inevitable fate of men. It will grow with age. It is about 25 to 30 grams at the age of 40 to 49, 30 to 40 grams at the age of 50 to 59, and 35 to 40 grams at the age of 60 to 69. Generally speaking, the age of 50 to 60 is the starting point of the occurrence of prostate hypertrophy, and 90 percent of the age of 80 is prostate hypertrophy; In addition to age, diet, diabetes, hypertension, etc. also have an impact. Healthy men in the prime of life have enlarged prostate gland, which has a greater relationship with diet.
What we eat out now
The dishes of restaurants in the last century
Eating too many nutritional supplements
The exact cause of prostate hypertrophy is not clear, but the study points out that diet is one of the reasons. Drinking habits with high fat, more meat and less vegetables and fruits tend to make the prostate "white and fat", so the number of patients with prostate hypertrophy in their 40s is increasing. In addition, over-supplement may also cause abnormal enlargement of the prostate. A 60-year-old man once encountered a prostate of up to 200 grams. After examination, he was healthy and free of chronic diseases, but he took a large number of lozenges of nutritional supplements, and also a lot of lozenges containing trace elements.
Suggest more vegetables and fruits, light diet
More vegetables and fruits and a light diet can help delay the hypertrophy of the prostate, and should also maintain normal sexual life. Sexual life can discharge substances in the prostate, which is also another kind of detoxification, and should help reduce the probability of prostatitis or prostate cancer.
