I have a family history of prostate problems. What can I do to help to ensure I do not develop problems later on in life?

Around 50% of all men over 50 years and about 80% of all men in there eighties will experience prostate problems to some extent.

A natural approach to prostate health is possible. Simple changes in diet can help improve the health of the prostate. Diets high in carotenoids from red and orange fruits and vegetables are recommended, as are diets high in polyunsaturated oils from fish and flaxseed.

Sunflower and pumpkin seeds should be included in the diet because they provide a source of zinc, an important mineral for prostate health.

Supplements can also help maintain prostate health. Because of a busy lifestyle some men find it hard to obtain the essential nutrients they need.

It is important to consult your Doctor first to assess your current health, and if you consider taking a nutritional/herbal supplement, let your Doctor know, and speaka Natural Health Professional.
