How A Combination Of Diet, Exercise And Proper Screening Can Reduce The Risk Of Prostate Cancer

The prostate is a chestnut shaped gland that is located below the bladder and wraps around the urethra. The only function that the prostate has in the urinary system is to close the urethra after ejection. The prostate is essential for ejaculation. Over 200,000 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer this year and more than 30,000 will die from the disease.

Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in men. It is often referred to as the "silent killer" because it is asymptomatic - at first. Prostate cancer has no early symptoms, and the ones that due begin such as difficulty urinating and painful ejaculation are also symptoms associated with common non cancerous changes to the prostate with age.

When it comes to mens bodies they are often quick to do the things that will benefit them in building up their bodies and maintaining a good physique and often do not take the steps necessary to maintain good health for their inner bodies. This is one of the reasons that men can get cancers and other diseases that may have been preventable with a little knowledge. We want to review a few things that men can do to maintain good prostate health.

Exercise

Maintaining a good level of physical fitness and doing regular exercise each day has been shown by researchers to greatly lower the risk of cancer, especially prostate cancer. Men in the U.S. that maintain a daily exercise schedule have 75% lower rates of cancer and heart disease than men who do not participate in regular exercise.

Exercise can increase blood flow to the organs and help keep everything healthier by increasing the exchange of nutrients and waste products from body cells and tissues. It also keeps the level of body fat (weight) under control and further reduces the risk of some cancers. Good fitness has been shown to reduce the risks of diabetes, stroke, and heart disease. Stronger muscles promote better blood flow and circulation to all organs and tissues.

Diet and Nutrition

A healthy diet rich in vegetables and low in saturated fat has been shown to reduce the risk of various types of cancers. Don't overindulge in red meat or fatty foods. It has been shown that men who eat diets high in red meat tend to have high rates of prostate cancer. It is not clear why this is true. Some scientists feel that red meat may contain fats that may be harmful to the prostate while others feel that there may be certain chemicals produced by grilling that may be responsible. Still others feel that increased meat consumption reduces the amounts of fruits and vegetables in their diets.

It is suggested that men eat 5-7 servings of fruits and vegetables a day. It has been shown that men who do this have lower rates of cancers than men who consume less servings. Tomatoes and tomatoes based products are particularly beneficial due to the high concentration of Lycopene which is a powerful antioxidant that reduces the number of free radicals in the body  that have been shown to convert normal cells into cancerous cells. While consuming this many servings of fruits and vegetables on a daily basis may be difficult for most people supplementation is also a viable alternative.

Receive Regular Screening

Speak to your doctor about the benefits of prostate screening. Screening means looking for signs of a disease before symptoms are present. This is the time when treatment will probably be most effective.

Your physician can explain the factors that increase the risk of prostate cancer, such as family history or race, and suggest a screening schedule that is tailored to your particular situation.

The Thyroid Diet $10.99 From patient advocate Mary Shomon, author of Living Well With Hypothyroidism , here is the first book to tackle the weight factors specific to thyroid patients and detail a conventional and alternative plan for lasting weight loss. An estimated 10 million Americans have been diagnosed with thyroid disease—most of them women—and for the majority of them, losing weight is mentioned time and time again as a primary concern and chief frustration—a challenge made more difficult due to the metabolic slowdown of a malfunctioning thyroid gland. For these thyroid patients, treatment alone doesn't seem to resolve weight problems. Further, they may struggle with raising basic metabolism, resolving underlying nutritional deficiencies, treating depression and correcting brain chemistry imbalances, reducing stress, and combating insulin resistance. The Thyroid Diet will identify these factors that inhibit a thyroid patient's ability to lose weight, and offer solutions—both conventional and alternative—to help. It will discuss optimal dietary changes, including how a thyroid sufferer should focus on a low-glycemic, high-fibre, low-calorie diet, eaten as smaller, more frequent meals to balance blood sugar. The Thyroid Diet addresses the use of various herbs, nutritional supplements, and prescription weight loss drugs, outlining the necessity of exercise, and drawing together all information into an integrated diet and exercise plan. It contains several different eating plans, food lists, and a set of delicious and healthy gourmet recipes. With handy worksheets to use in weight loss tracking, and a special resource section featuring websites, books, and support groups, here is vital help for the millions of thyroid patients dealing with weight problems. Mary Shomon has been praised by doctors around the country for her medical knowledge and sensitivity to patients' needs. She will be receiving similar blurbs for this new book. There are no other books on controlling your weight problems if you have a thyroid condition, yet over 40% of overweight people have evidence of a thyroid condition, and the weight loss problems facing them are unique and need a specific approach.

The Fertility Diet $24.95 Could having the occasional small bowl of ice cream lead to a midnight craving for pickles and ice cream? It's common knowledge that diet and exercise have profound effects on your health. Can they affect your ability to get pregnant, too? Until now, the answer to that question was a qualified "Maybe." Today, it's "Yes!" thanks to exciting findings from a landmark long-term study of female nurses. As described in The Fertility Diet , ten simple changes in diet and activity can have profound effects on fertility. You can increase your chances of getting pregnant with such simple strategies as: Avoiding trans fats; Eating more beans, nuts, and other fertility-boosting plant protein; Embracing whole grains such as oatmeal and barley; Having a glass of whole milk or other full-fat dairy product every day (a small bowl of ice cream every now and then counts, too!); Staying away from sugared sodas. The Nurses' Health Study exhaustively examined the effects of diet and other lifestyle changes on fertility among nearly 20,000 female nurses. It scrutinized everything from alcohol to vitamins. In plain language, two of the study's lead researchers translate its groundbreaking findings into changes you can put into practice today, setting the stage for a healthy pregnancy and forming the foundation for an eating strategy that will serve you well for the rest of your life. The Fertility Diet also offers a week's worth of meal plans and fifteen delicious recipes.

The Rosedale Diet $10.99 Finally—the ultimate diet for fast, safe weight loss, lifelong health, and longer life, based on more than twenty years of research and the latest findings on appetite and weight. Metabolic specialist Ron Rosedale, M.D., has designed the Rosedale Diet to regulate the powerful hormone leptin, which controls appetite and weight loss by telling the brain when to eat, how much to eat—and when to stop. New research shows that leptin may be one of the body's most important hunger control mechanisms. Control leptin, and you control your weight. Most people's leptin levels are out of control, causing them to overeat and to store fat rather than burn it. The only way to flip the "hunger switch" back to normal is through a diet high in healthy fats and low in carbohydrates, saturated fat, and trans-fatty acids often found in processed food—plus just 15 minutes of daily exercise. Dr. Rosedale's 21-day diet plan is simple: Just select from the many foods on his "A" list, including "healthy-fat" foods such as avocados, nuts, olives, lobster, crab, shrimp, goat cheese, Cornish game hen, venison, and more. Then gradually add foods from the "B" list, such as steak, lamb chops, fruits, beans, and so on. A 28-day menu plan and more than 100 recipes, such as Dilled Salmon and Fresh Asparagus, Gingery Chicken Soup, Lasagna, Black Bean Wrap, Raspberry Mousse Cake, and French Silk Pie, make eating the Rosedale way deliciously easy. Weight loss is just the beginning. The Rosedale Diet will make you feel satisfied, reduce cravings, and put you in control of your "sweet tooth." It can even help eliminate or reduce heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, and other conditions associated with "natural" aging, as many of Dr. Rosedale's patients can attest. You'll find inspiring stories from them—and the power to control your weight and improve your health—in this groundbreaking book.
