EVERY MAN MUST READ THIS:
I'm here to talk to you about the Prostate. The subject is a bit confusing. Is the prostate strictly for men? Yes, only men have prostate and only men over 40 but prevention awareness is for everyone There's no woman who doesn't know a man of 40 years and above, father, uncle, brother, son, friend, neighbor, colleague...
What I'm going to do today is promote health. Responsible health promotion must provide three things:
1. Information
2. insurance
3. A plan of action.
Let me start with an overview of prostate health. Everybody has a pair of kidneys. The function of the kidney is to remove waste. This is the vision (waste management company) of your body. Every day, your blood crosses the kidney several times to be filtered. When blood is filtered, urine is formed and stored in a temporary storage tank called the bladder.
If there was no bladder, while a man is walking on the road, urine would fall continuously.
Now consider the plumbing work in your home. Think of the bladder as an aerial storage tank. From the storage tank, a good plumber will run the pipes to other parts of the house, including the kitchen. God in His wisdom ran tubes from our bladder to the tip of the penis. A pipe is called a urethra. Just below the bladder and around the urethra is a small organ called the PROSTATE.
The prostate is the size of a nut and weighs about 20 grams. Its job is to make the seminal fluid that is stored in the seminal bladder. During sex, seminal fluid flows down the urethra and mixes with the spermatozoids produced in the testicles to form the sperm. So, sperm isn't technically sperm. It's sperm + seminal fluid. Seminal fluid lubricates the sperm.
After 40 years, for hormonal reasons, the prostatic gland starts to grow. From 20 grams, it can reach almost 100 grams. As he gets bigger, he tightens the urethra and the man starts to notice changes in his urination.
If you have a son under 10, if he has a little mischief like we all did at that age, when he goes out to pee, he can aim at the ceiling and the jet will hit the target. Call his dad to do the same, His urine output is weak, can't travel long distances and can sometimes come straight down his legs. At that, he may need to get in an uncomfortable position to urinate.
Few men worry about their urine output not reaching the ceiling. The toilets are on the floor not the ceiling. But other symptoms are starting to appear.
* LAST DRILL
The man starts to notice that after urinating and repacking, urine is still falling down his pants. This is why, after an older man pees, the bell has to ring. A young man just delivers the last drop and walks away. Just saw an older man coming from the bathroom. Sometimes he can squeeze newspaper closely to hide urine stains, especially on solid color trousers.
* HESISTATION
At that point, you wait longer for the urine to start. There are 2 valves that must open for you to urinate- internal and external sphincters. Both open but due to obstruction in the urethra you wait longer for the stream to start.
* INCOMPLETE VIDEO
Just after urinating You get that feeling that there is still something left.
As all these things happen, the bladder starts to work harder to compensate for the obstruction in the urethra. The frequency of urination is increasing. The emergency is setting in. Sometimes you have to practically run to the bathroom. Nycturia is also becoming common. You wake up more than 2 times a night to pee. Your wife is starting to complain
Men being men can’t even talk to nobody at this point. And then the worst complications start.
Stored urine is infected and there can be a burning sensation while urinating.
Stored urine forms crystals. The crystals gather together to form a stone in the bladder or kidney. Stones can block the urethra.
Chronic Urinary tract infection sets in. Bladder holds more and more urine. Bladder size is 40 to 60cl. A bottle of coke is 50cl. As the bladder stores more urine, it can grow up to 300 cl. An over filled bladder can leak and lead to urinary/wetting incontinence. In addition, volume can put pressure on the kidney and lead to kidney damage.
Now, what is most likely to take man to hospital is acute urinary retention. He wakes up one day and can’t pee.
Everything that I have described above is associated with prostate enlargement, technically referred to as benign prostate hyperplasia.
There are other prostate diseases such as:
1. Prostatitis - inflammation of the prostate
2. Prostate Cancer -
This talk is about prostate enlargement.
Got bad news & good news
The bad news is that everyone will get prostate enlargement if they live long enough.
The good news is that there are lifestyle changes that can help men after 40 maintain optimal prostate health, in which they are:
NUTRITION
Watch what you eat. 33% of all cancers according to the National Cancer Institute are related to what we eat.
Red meat daily triples your chances of prostate disease. Daily milk doubles your risk. Not eating fruit/veggies every day quadruple your risk.
Tomatoes are really good for men. If this is the only thing your wife can give in the evening, eat it with joy. He has lycopene charges Lycopene is the most powerful natural antioxidant.
Foods rich in zinc are also good for men. We recommend pumpkin seeds
Zinc is the most essential element of male sexuality and fertility.
Men need more zinc than women. Every time a man ejaculates, he loses 15 mg of zinc. Zinc is also important in the metabolism of alcohol. Your liver needs zinc to metabolize alcohol.
ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION
As men start to have urinary symptoms associated with prostate enlargement, it is important that they watch alcohol consumption. More fluid means more fluid.
Drink less. Drink in slow motion
SPORTS
Sport helps build muscle tone. Every man should be in sports Men over 40 should avoid high-impact exercises like jogging. Putting pressure on the knees Cycling is bad news for the prostate. We recommend a fast walk.
SESSION
When we’re sitting, two-thirds of our weight is resting on pelvis bones. Men who sit longer are more prone to prostate symptoms. Don't sit down for long hours. Walk as often as you can Sit in some comfortable chairs. We recommend a split saddle chair if you have to sit for long hours.
DRESSING
Men should avoid tight underwear. It affects circulation around the groin and warms it up a little. While the physiological temperature is 37 degrees, the groin has an optimal temperature of about 33 degrees. Pant is a no no for men. Wear boxers please Please wear clothes that breathe.
SMOKER
Avoid smoking. It affects blood vessels and circulation of impact around the crotch.
H E S I C
Regular sex is good for the prostate.
Singles are more prone to prostate disease. While being single is a moral decision, it’s not a biological adaptation. Your prostate is designed to empty its contents regularly.
