Guide to Best Prostate Herbs
Reduce
Anxiety Prostate Problems Naturally
Natural herbs can offer
alternative relief for some
prostate problems such as
enlarged prostate symptom,
frequent nighttime urination, or
high PSA level.
What Herbs Can I Take For Prostate Health?
Here are some of the most common natural remedies:
1.
Saw Palmetto berry helps men with
enlarged prostate symptom (BPH - Benign prostatic hyperplasia)
that caused by noncancerous cysts. It may help decreasing the size
of the prostate (by over 60% for some patients), reducing prostate
pain, and helping the prostate function more effectively.
2.
Pumpkin seeds (Cucurbita pepo) are a widely used
therapy for urinary symptoms of BPH and to calm overactive bladder.
Pumpkin seeds contain the unusual amino acid cucurbitacins that help
to stop testosterone from changing into stronger form of harmful
testosterones, which encourages prostate cancer cells to grow.
Cucurbitacins has been found to paralyze intestinal parasites so
that they can be expelled by the body.

3.
Pygeum (Pygeum africanum). In a review of 12
double-blind, placebo-controlled studies involving a total of 700
men, researchers concluded that compared with the placebo group,
participants who received the African plum experienced greater
reductions in urgent and
frequent nighttime urination (Andro 1995). Pygeum contains
phytosterols that help inhibit the biosynthesis of prostaglandins
which is the process responsible for prostate inflammation. |

4.
Flaxseeds contain plant-based omega-3 fatty acids,
fiber and lignans. Lignans can help balance the conversion of
testosterone to DHT, the more potent form of testosterone. Elevated
levels of DHT are contributed to abnormal prostate growth, leading
to BPH. Lignan in flaxseed not only bring temporary relief to
urinary complaints associated with
BPH but also help reduce prostate pain and prostate size.
5.
Green Tea contains catechins, an beneficial active
component, that track down tumor cells and neutralize them before
they can affect healthy prostate cells. Green tea might be the
reason why Asian men have far fewer cases of
prostate cancer than Western men.
6. American Ginseng helps
increase the low level of testosterone and androgen that may cause
anxiety prostate problems
7. Stinging Nettle root is a
natural remedy of choice for
enlarged prostate treatment since scientists have theorized that
it may contain chemicals that affect hormones or because it directly
acts on prostate cells.
8. Epilobium contains 2
beneficial Polyphenols that helps inhibit the conversion of
testosterone to DHT by the 5-Alpha Reductase enzyme and aromatase.
This mechanism provides Epilobium the ability to reverse enlarged
prostate.
