BEAT Your Prostate Problems… With WATER?!

If you’re a man over 50, you’ve probably had issues with your prostate.
And I’m not just talking about cancer.
There’s another issue – called Benign prostatic hyperplasia (or BPH) – that can make your golden years miserable, too.
BPH can keep you running back and forth to the toilet… out of the bedroom… and scared to drink more than a thimbleful at a time.
But it doesn’t have to be this way any longer.
Because researchers have found an incredible way to BEAT your prostate problems.
And, surprisingly, it’s all thanks to water.
BPH is a noncancerous enlargement of your prostate. And it occurs in about one-half of all men and around 90 percent of men over 80 years old.
And there’s a good reason it happens to older men.
You see, has your hormone levels plummet with age, your prostate gland grows in response.
For most men, this enlargement is no problem and they don’t even notice it.
But, in certain men the prostate grows so big it blocks the urethra (the tube which urine flows through) making it difficult to go to the bathroom.
There are drugs used to treat BPH, but they’re generally ineffective. Surgeries, such as transurethral resection (or TURP) are painful and often USELESS.
But there is a solution: water.
A new study shows that using a waterjet procedure to treat BPH works significantly better – and has fewer side effects – than TERP.
Even better? A two-year follow-up study found that men who underwent the waterjet procedure had better urine flow… and were four times LESS likely to have sexual complications.
Experts report that this procedure is so effective because the high–speed water jet removes excess tissue that blocks your urethra.
If you’re having prostate issues, talk to your doctor about this new procedure.
And make sure you’re getting enough zinc, fish oil, and taking prostate-friendly herbs such as Pygeum and stinging nettles.
