What vitamins and minerals are good for your prostate?
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) is extremely common in men over the age of 50 and the symptoms, such as frequent and urgent urination, can interfere with day-to-day life.
Diet provides a means of managing and even preventing these symptoms, but a few vitamins and minerals are particularly beneficial. These include:
Zinc
Vitamin D
Vitamin C.
1. Zinc
This mineral is excellent for the health of the prostate as low levels of zinc have been seen to increase the likelihood of developing BPH. There is also evidence to suggest that zinc could help calm symptoms that already exist.
Part of this is to do with the fact that foods high in zinc, such as nuts and seeds, contain a compound called phytosterol. Research shows that this works to ease the urinary symptoms of an enlarged prostate.
2. Vitamin D
Vitamin D also has promising results when it comes to the prevention and management of BPH. There is, it seems, a correlation between vitamin D deficiency, the growth of the prostate gland and the resulting urinary symptoms.
It seems to be the case that low vitamin D may encourage cell growth and inhibit the way a cell naturally dies off. As a result, low vitamin D may contribute to the growth of the prostate cells.
3. Vitamin C
Research indicates that vitamin C could reduce the chance of developing enlarged prostate symptoms.
Oxidative stress is thought to be a contributing factor in BPH so this may explain why nutrients such as vitamin C, which have rich antioxidant properties, may help to ease symptoms. The key is to keep up a regular intake of vitamin C, however, in order to reap its benefits.
Vitamin C may also prevent the expansion of a molecule known as HIF-1alpha which can influence the growth of the prostate cells. By stopping this molecule in its tracks, vitamin C reduces the chance of prostate enlargement.
