Introduction
Prostate gland is one of the most important parts for men to keep healthy. It is related to men's sexual ability and reproductive health. So how should men protect prostate gland? What should we pay attention to in our daily life?
How should men protect the prostate?
Only by ensuring a healthy lifestyle can we alleviate or avoid the development of the disease. If you are not sedentary, do not drink a lot, eat spicy food, do not hold urine at ordinary times, suffer from constipation or diarrhea, you should be treated immediately. Because traditional Chinese medicine believes that excessive drinking and eating stimulating food can easily make damp and heat endogenous, accumulate in the reproductive organs, make the prostate hyperemia, and cause prostatitis.
Eating kidney tonic is good for prostate.
Pumpkin seeds and walnut kernels are not only good for tonifying the kidney, but also have diuretic function, and walnut kernels have the effect of moistening the stool. Therefore, when men are old, they should eat more pumpkin seeds and walnut kernels to supplement the deficiency of kidney qi.
3 Quit smoking.
The prevalence of prostate disease in smokers is 1-2 times higher than that in non-smokers. Nicotine, tar, nicotine, nitrosamines and other toxic substances in cigarettes can interfere with the nerve function of the blood vessels, affect the blood circulation of the prostate, and lead to prostate congestion. Its toxic substances can also directly poison prostate tissue.
Eat less spicy food.
Spicy food is not the direct cause of prostate disease, but alcohol, chili and other foods have a stimulating effect on the prostate and urethra, can cause temporary perineal discomfort, and can also cause vasodilation to promote the congestion and edema of the prostate and bladder neck, resulting in a lower resistance of the prostate.
5 Avoid sitting for a long time, including cycling, driving motorcycles and cars for a long time.
The sitting position slows down the blood circulation, especially in the perineum, which leads to chronic congestion and blood stasis of the prostate, accumulation of local metabolites, obstruction of the prostate gland tube, and poor excretion of glandular fluid, leading to the occurrence of chronic prostatitis.
