This Prostate Mistake Could KILL You

Let’s face it… we guys take a lot of pride in being tough.
We all had a dad, uncle, or football coach who told us to “rub some dirt on it” when we got a scrape or injury.
And I can assure you that’s not an approved medical treatment.
Guys tend to ignore medical symptoms until its too late.
And when you’re talking about your prostate, that can be a big problem.
In fact, it could end up killing you.
A recent study showed, for the first time, that more men are dying from prostate cancer than women from breast cancer.
That seems odd, right?
We see football players wearing pink and races supporting breast cancer… so breast cancer must be a bigger deal, right?
Nope.
Well, more women are diagnosed with breast cancer, but more men are dying from prostate cancer.
The reason why men are dying is what I’ve already mentioned: men are less likely to take care of themselves and to take health problems seriously.
I think another one of the problems is that men don’t know the signs of prostate cancer.
So, let’s go over them:
- Needing to urinate more often, especially at night.
- Needing to run to the toilet.
- Difficulty in starting to urinate.
- Weak urine flow or taking a long time while urinating.
- Feeling your bladder has not emptied fully when you are done.
Also, you should know men with male relatives who had prostate cancer, African American men, and men over 50 are at higher risk of getting the disease.
The good news about prostate cancer is that it is very treatable from a natural perspective and it is usually a very slow-growing cancer.
You have time– if you take action.
Dr. Scott’s Prostate Health Program:
- Eat well: This means plenty of veggies and good proteins. Tomatoes, which contain lycopene, are especially good for the prostate. You should also avoid processed or sugary foods as much as you can.
- Get plenty of zinc: Foods high in zinc include pumpkin seeds, beef, and spinach. Supplement to make sure you are getting enough.
- Herbs that support good prostate health include pygeum and stinging nettles.
- A fiber-like substance called beta-sitosterols are especially good for the prostate.
You can pick up all of these supplements at pretty much any online or local store.
Health and Happiness,
