The prostate is a crucial organ for the male reproductive system. Its function is often misunderstood and not given enough attention until health problems arise. So how can we properly care for our prostate? Here is a comprehensive approach with habits that will make a difference. 1. The essential function of the prostate The prostate is not only involved in semen production; it also plays a necessary immunological role. Prostate fluid contains proteins, enzymes and minerals that help nourish and protect sperm. It also contributes to the lubrication of the urethra, facilitating the flow of semen. 2. Risks of prostate cancer Prostate cancer is the second most diagnosed cancer among men and the fifth leading cause of cancer death worldwide. While it tends not to progress in men over 75, it can be lethal for people between 40 and 60 years old. Early detection is key to successful treatment. 3. Balanced diet for prostate health Maintaining a balanced diet is essential for prostate health. Eating ultra-processed foods can cause inflammation throughout the body, including the prostate. Opt for foods rich in vegetables, fruits, whole grains, healthy fats, and antioxidants. Superfoods for the prostate! Certain nutrients such as zinc, selenium, and saw palmetto have beneficial properties for the prostate. 4. PROSTATE CANCER and MILK and CHEESE Any connection? There is evidence to suggest that industrial dairy products may be linked to prostate cancer. It is recommended to reduce the consumption of dairy products containing A1 casein, especially for people with a genetic predisposition. Although studies are not conclusive, it is better to be safe. 5. Maintain a good body composition A good fat-to-muscle ratio reduces the risk of prostate problems. Combine a healthy diet with regular exercise, especially resistance and cardiovascular training, to maintain an adequate weight and reduce inflammation. Exercise releases myokines, enzymes that improve circulation and the general condition of the prostate. 6. Stress management and healthy habits Chronic stress negatively affects all regenerative processes, worsening conditions such as prostatic hyperplasia. Practicing mindfulness, meditation, or relaxing activities can be beneficial. In addition, urinating while sitting could reduce prostate pressure, although there are no conclusive studies yet. 7. Early detection and regular checkups Early detection remains the greatest advance in the fight against prostate cancer. Men over 40 years of age should undergo regular digital rectal exams and prostate-specific antigen measurements. If you have any change in flow, frequency, or pain when urinating, see a specialist. 0:00 What does the prostate do? 1:15 Prostate cancer 2:25 What does the prostate produce? 3:04 What can you do about prostate cancer? 4:18 Nutrients that care for the prostate 5:03 Foods that affect the prostate 6:38 What can you do to care for it 8:57 The best thing you have to avoid cancer 10:43 Should you urinate sitting down? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ????BECOME AN EXCLUSIVE MEMBER AND ENJOY UNIQUE BENEFITS????: / @drcarlosjaramillo - My official website https://drcarlosjaramillo.com/ - BUY MY BOOKS AND SUPPLEMENTS HERE: https://shop.medicinafuncional.co/ - PRODUCTS ON AMAZON: https://bit.ly/ProductosAmazonCJ https://shop.medicinafuncional.co/cat... - LEARN ABOUT THE BEST PROTEINS AND SUPPLEMENTS IN SAVVY: https://bit.ly/2ML3khs - Dr. Carlos Jaramillo and the Institute of Functional Medicine seek to ensure that you always have good habits and, above all, clarity about how daily decisions produce a large part of the diseases that humanity has today.
