Chronic prostatitis is a common disease in adult men. Due to poor clinical treatment, it has been a major problem for patients and doctors. However, in recent years, doctors have found in clinical practice that eating more apples can have an effective conditioning effect to alleviate the symptoms of chronic prostatitis and reduce recurrence. This is mainly because apples have a very high content of zinc, which is an important disease-resistant element in the prostate and can affect the function of anti-inflammatory cells.
In patients with chronic prostatitis, the zinc content in the prostate fluid is significantly lower than in normal individuals, and it is difficult to improve during treatment. Only when the patient's prostatitis disappears can the zinc content return to normal. In the past, doctors liked to let patients take zinc containing drugs, but this drug should not be used for a long time, and the drug dose is not easy to control.
"Eating apples to supplement zinc not only has no side effects, but also is beneficial to the body's absorption and utilization, which is better than taking medicine.". After clinical use, it has become popular with most patients and has become a well-known "apple therapy".
For patients with chronic prostatitis, eating 2-3 apples a day can obtain sufficient zinc to achieve the goal of synergistic treatment of prostatitis and prevention of recurrence. Drinking apple juice or eating jam can be both acceptable. In addition, other foods with high zinc content include lean meat, eggs, peanuts, walnut kernels, sesame seeds, pine nuts, sunflower seeds, etc., which can be selected according to personal taste.
