Age 70, frequent peeing, average twice every night. Have been taking supplements green tea, saw palmetto, zinc. Carefully Carrying out other routines exercise, foods as suggested. Now my condition is just stable. So, question is should I have to continue the above mentioned supplements for indefinite periods ? If so do these supplements have any side effects? Thank you doctor.
hey doctor you wouldn't believe me if I told you this but I was diagnosed with this problem at the age of 22 being a male going through this life was tough for me . I still am dealing with this problem after 11 years and nothing is being done about it to make matters better.
I want to share my remedy that worked after 2 months. My issue was weak urine streams and waking up at 4 to pee. Started juicing my red juice and my late night pee has stopped. I got the Amumu juicer from Amazon because I didn’t want to spend $500+ . Here is what I juice weekly into a half gallon jug: Half of red cabbage 2 cups of watermelon 3-4 tomatoes 3 Beets 1 Lemon 4 honey crisp apples Small nug of ginger Half bag of baby carrots You can alter yours to include more lycopene rich foods. I started having 1 cup every other day first thing in the morning before my cup of coffee. And honestly, I’m shocked at the improvement.
Men i didn’t start improving until i started researching my condition and learning what was happening to me. I had a total urinary shutdown not once but twice. My doctor never told me once that my condition was Related to my diet. My first total shutdown following a waffle cone full of delicious black berry ice cream. My urologist told me i had an enlarged prostate. I asked him what was causing it. He never once told me That my problem problem had anything to do with my diet. After the second total Shutdown of my system less than six months later i decided to learn as much as i could. My doctor advised me to have surgery. He said surgery was my only option. I did not want to go through surgery so i decided i would try something else. I stopped drinking beer. I stopped eating Cheese. I stopped drinking milk or eating Butter. I stopped eating cakes which i was certainly addicted to. I stopped eating sandwiches. I started eating salads, pumpkin seeds, salmon, chicken and sweet potatoes. I eat fruits and vegetables. After months of improving i am of the impression that prostate problems are Related to a zinc deficiency. Now i eat foods that contain zinc. I am not cured yet but i feel that i am moving in the right direction. Never dreamed sugar was harmful to me. I am much better now and believe i know how to maintain good health. Started exercising. Learned a few techniques to make urination possible without pushing and straining.
YES......check out the work of "Glucose Goddess" who clearly explains how sugar "cooks" us......she's really helped me turn around the sugar train, and also has several great "hacks" that help diminish the damage when we DO have sugar......good work/good luck!....
For 25+ years five different Urologist told me I had an enlarged prostate, and the resulting BPH symptoms. They treated my with drugs and a horribly painful microwave procedure. They never actually measured my prostate in any way to verify its size. Recently, very good Urologists at "The Ohio State University" actually measured my prostate with a CT scan. I was shocked to learn my prostate was not actually enlarged. I have overactive bladder issues. Sometimes you can't trust doctors.
I'm not surprised. I'm so sorry to hear that you went through all that. People are learning these days that so many procedures are performed for the money. People forget that the medical industry is first a business, and a business needs a steady flow of income to stay in business, just like any other business. People, I'm afraid, are just ignorant about this. There are many simple and natural lifestyles that were being kept in the dark about to keep us ill. The intake of large amounts of sugar is probably the biggest mistake were doing. All plants contain glucose, fructose and sucrose. Check a botany text. I'm not saying not to eat veggies, but our digestive system is created to eat a balance with animal protein. Make sure you cook them veggies well. That's why ruminants, like cows, have multiple stomachs to digest vegetation. It's extremely hard to break down. That's why when you eat a salad, you'll often find some of your salad not broken down in the toilet, and veggies that aren't broken down will tear into the sensitive lining of your intestines. In these days, we're being pushed to eat vegan. If you eat vegan, you'll be taking in sugar 100% of the time. As for grains, we can't eat them unless they're processed. We can't eat them in a natural state. We don't have the flat grinding teeth needed that most herbivores have. Think about it. The logic is quite simple.
I had urgency to urinate about 14 times a day but was ok during the night over a 5 month period. The doctors examination confirmed i had an enlarged prostrate. My PSA test was normal. I stumble across a youtube video adving the use of pumpkin seeds. So i started eating about 20 grams per day and within about two weeks the urination urgency had gone. Couldn't believe it but very happy.
@@jamescalifornia2964 I discovered it after eating seeds as a snack after few times noticed my prostate issues improved, it's sure is a nice when we can find food as medicine for what ails us brother
When we talk about natural methods, sun exposure around noon for a few minutes 2 to 3 times a week shall be quite rewarding by increasing the level of Vitamin D which reduces the overall inflammation and the size of enlargement of prostate. Great video and thanks Sir.....
One can try using castor oil pack topically on the enlarged P. It will also help reduce it. Don't give up, till you get healed. Prayers also work wonders if you are nor sarcastic, put a smile on the face of one person every day, and believe. God bless you and have a beautiful and life long and happy loving life.
I can not remember seeing such a knowledgeable young man who speaks with 100% authority and confidence, that comes from years of study and self-improvement, so Dr, Ski job well done, I have the brain of a child, may-be 5 or 6, and I learned a great deal, thank you.........................BB
Thanks for this! I'm 71, in great shape, but this prostate of mine is the biggest nuisance of my life. I've had two TURPs, and still have some issues, now being treated for prostatitis.
@@RaiseTheBar4Truth thx so much for sharing these useful info,me too I m from my 63 this April,I feel burning sensation in the bladder,don't have any issue abt my prostate,,I must stop drinking beer and icecream😂
@@RaiseTheBar4Truth hi there, I am on a keto lifestyle myself. Could you please comment or explain why you said to cut out salt? I’ve been taught the opposite. Thank you in advance.
I reduced symptoms by limiting sugar and dairy intake, eating more almonds and pumpkin seeds, drinking more green tea and doing intermittent fasting during the week. I never get up at night any more. Usually I felt the urge as soon as I was in bed and literally getting out 5 times to squeeze out a drop. That's gone too. Emptying the blatter is still an issue sometimes, but what helps is to pee sitting down, relax and just have patience. Don't squeeze/push it out.
@@smorgdonkey References? Complete nonsense about eggs. 4 to 6 eggs a day will shrink your prostate thanks to correcting testosterone levels and all the vitamin D. Low fat dairy is bad due the growth hormone in milk.
@@wanderingaussies8172 the references are listed in Diet For A New America, a book that has been around for 35+/- years OR you could just do a few minutes of searches. IE: "Egg yolks are rich in arachidonic acid, a substance that increases inflammation which can affect the prostate gland. Nonetheless, the entire content of an egg has been shown that aggravates BPH symptoms. On the whole, eggs are part of the worst foods for prostate health.Sep 1, 2022"
@@smorgdonkey Thank you I will look at that reference, it does disagree with many papers I have read along with personal and other's experience. It is bad to eat just the whites or just the yellows on their own there are different components that cancel each other out when eaten together. The yolk contains 100% of the carotenoids, essential fatty acids like omega-3 fatty acid DHA and omega-6 fatty acid arachidonic acids. If you consider the acid on its own and with nothing else it is possible to draw the wrong conclusions. Olive oil for eg has omega 6 yet it also has anti inflammatory properties despite having omega 6 which can cause inflammation. I changed my life moving to 6 eggs a day and don't need drugs anymore.
I’m 58, and have been plant based for 5 years. I don’t eat highly processed foods, I don’t use oils, stopped drinking alcohol and coffee……and still my PSA is 6, and BPH is still present, I get up 3-4 times a night. One thing I believe you missed is exercise. My BMI is 21. Maybe it’ll drop more now I’ve cut out alcohol, and I’m signed up again for cross fit 3 times a week. Wish I could figure out why BPH still present and PSA still too high when I take such good intentional care of myself.
@@rynhardtnel6401 something else that's huge is to incorporate is zinc, saw palmetto, boron, pygeum stinging nettle, lycopene. 👉🏼 NOW THE MAIN THING I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU ADVICE ON IS TRY THIS STAY AWAY FROM SUGAR, IF YOU HAVE A HARD TIME TO STAY AWAY FROM THE SUGAR DON'T EAT JUNK FOOD TRY TO EAT GET IT FROM FRUITS BUT STAY AWAY FROM SUGAR MAN AND PROCESSED FOODS AND ALSO SOME GRAINS. SUGAR PLAYS A HUGE PART THOUGH INSULIN IS HUGE IN THIS PROSTATE. I would even also recommend to try or start intermittent fasting, start slowly. Definitely cut out the sugar and take the supplements and see how you feel, good luck.

Referencing the point you made at the beginning about men who don't try to take care of themselves, once again I seem to be in the minority of my demographic. I'm actively looking for ways to address my BPH with out surgery. A year ago I had prostatic artery embolization (restricts blood flow to the prostate). At the beginning of this year (2023) I switched from a low fat/high carb diet to a high fat/low carb diet. The most immediate effect of that change is I've lost a lot of weight (which I needed to do) and am backing away from a pre-diabetic condition. The immediate effect on my prostate was that my symptoms got worse. But I expected that. Prostates are temperamental beasts and don't want anything about their environment to change. They don't want their blood flow cut off. They don't want their supply of nutrients reduced. In recent days my symptoms have improved a little, but this is going to be a long road.
> In my case, I had four months of gradual improvement through the end of July 2022. I plateaued the first two weeks of August 2022, then my symptoms started coming back. I've done a bit of research. In the first 1-3 years, PAE is effective in about 82% of patients. 5-6 years out, it's, I forget exactly, 75% or 76% effective. In the last month or so I'm seeing results from the nutritional approach. Last Saturday (April 16, 2023) I went shopping at Trader Joe's, then Aldi, then Dollar Tree, and only realized later that I hadn't needed to pee, or ever thought about peeing, until I got home a bit over 2 hrs later. At the start of 2023, I'd have had to use the bathroom at TJ, use it again at Aldi, and then find a store with a bathroom near DT. Or sneak out behind their dumpsters. Why does PAE fail? Probably, the prostate is recruiting an existing minor blood vessel to bulk up and supply more blood; PAE doesn't block off all of the organ's blood, just restricts it. But if there's one thing an enlarged prostate knows how to do, it's recruit more blood flow. With the nutritional approach, I've taken away most of its glucose, and there's much less insulin in my blood inducing it to grow. So far it doesn't have a work-around for that. However, it could be that having undergone PAE first, I'm getting results faster with my dietary changes than I would be without it.
This also work for hairloss since its DHT blocker. I been dealing with hair thinning since 25 i am now 50, i learn to live with it by buzzing my hair short but since i turn 50 i wanted a change of looks, (i used dutastiride and fina minox at 45y old and got terrible side effects). Since i changed my diet, i fast longer, but also take turmeric, garlic, pepper, pumpkin seeds, eggs, matcha green tea, moringa, greens, red reishi mushroom and medicinal mushrooms i am seeing thickness and its very encouraging.
Very informative video. I recently experienced some bladder/urinating problems and are doing research around this "Prostate" issue. Your recommendations is spot on, compared to other reputable (Real Doctors, no UA-camrs trying to cash in)
It goes to show that in 2023 we really need to look out for ourselves like never before. There are some brilliant docs out there like Dr Sten Ekberg, Proffessor Thomas seyfried, and many others giving ut the advice we need. I have myself, this last week, stopped drinking beer, coffee and fizzy drinks. I just drink water and green tea now. Hated the first day but my health comes first now. I have no sugar and follow a low carb diet. I have never felt so switched on to what i NEED rather than what Ronald Macdonald, coca cola, Heinz, the meat industry and Kellogs etc etc want me to consume. Come on people, let's start looking out for ourselves and each other real well.
Keep in mind just because you can’t empty. Your bladder doesn’t mean you have prostate issues. You could have pelvic floor issues that was myself and I had to correct my doctor from prescribing life-changing or altering medication because he was wrong.
If testosterone causes EP, how come when youngmen with higher level of testosterone don't have EP but older men with a reduced level of testosterone have Ep. Just asking.
@@jeffreyferguson8234 Yes, I did about eight months of pelvic floor. Physical therapy helped quite a bit, but the symptoms came back here in the last week.
Great video. Thank you for the info. But for anyone with prostate issues - if it gets to the point where it is affecting your daily life significantly, the go-to management for it still is TURP. Please talk to your doctor about it. And what other options you have available to you.
Night time is my real problem, during the day my pissing is pretty normal. If I sit for a long time I get symptoms, but at night I often have to pee every couple hours. Takine Flomax has really helped sometimes I can sleep 3-5 straight hours which is more or less normal. I'm 71 so sleeping all night without getting up is many years behind me...
15 years ago whilst in Celebration Hospital Florida the surgeon i got to know very well said to me whilst peeing try to stop then resume your peeing 3-5 times during your visit to the toilet.. it will help your prostrate... And yes i have done this practice ever since my operation..
I’m 48 and have had symptoms for years, in the last 4 months I started taking prostforce and It helped a lot. Not completely better but at least 50 percent better. Used to get up 3 times a night and felt pressure there , now I maybe get up once or not at all and no pressure. So It definitely helps and it’s not very expensive, health food stores or Amazon you can get it .🍻
check your glucose, make a trial remove all carbs from diet for 2 weeks and see is it any better. If it helps , then continue eating without carbs. Google it. Good luck
Excellent advice by Dr Z..! I am going to follow all of it...or it's time for a Roto-Rotor type of procedure to clear a blockage. More exercise as well.
My husband broke his leg and was in the hospital for 2 weeks. He suffered terribly with urgency, frequency and burning for 3 weeks. I remembered he used to take an ibuprofen before bed to help lessen urination at night. He was on 4 pain medications all that time, but the urinary symptoms became worse than the broken leg. Only one ibuprofen fixed the problem. He will go back to at least one ibuprofen a day.
Been on finasteride for about 20 years. Has kept my hair and my PSA at .03. Im 59 yrs old. Used to use 1mg daily but now only use 3 mg a week. Read that once your skin is saturated with finasteride you don't need that much. Have been on this dosage for over a year. No change and I have never had any side effects ie sexual or otherwise.
Iam very scared about finasteride because of the sexual side effects....to shrink prostate my uro prescribed my 5mg a day of this but I never taken...i am only on tamsulosin....you have some numbers about your prostate volume before and after or you taken only for hair? Thank you
@@byrnc927 I used finasteride for both BPH and hair loss. I took 5 mg/day for a while, then started cutting pills into quarters so I was averaging 1.25 mg/day. Probably did that for a few years. Then one day I developed an ejaculation disorder. That definitely sucks. I stopped all finasteride for several years, but eventually my hair loss was really bothering me so I started fin again, now taking 1 mg three times a week in a ten weeks on, two weeks off schedule. It's at least not making the ejaculation thing worse, and my hair stopped falling out, so that's good. I'd recommend the 1 mg three times a week, ten weeks on two weeks off protocol for anyone using finasteride for hair loss. I've never heard of anyone using 10 mg/day. That seems high, but 5 mg knocks down your DHT so much that 10 might not do that much more.
@@byrnc927that's a lot; 10mg and no sides? My doc started me w 5mg but that gave me gynecomastia so I just backed it off to 1.25mg every other day and my prostate( and hair) are stable and no sides...
I attended a prostrate seminar around the year 2000 since I had and have low stream. One presenter said the nation with the least amount of prostrate cancer was China. I asked from what the Chinese were dying. The presenter said stomach cancer! The seminar also made the point that most men die with prostrate cancer - not from it. Autopsies show that the precursor to prostate cancer can begin as early as a male in their teens. These are the points that stood out to me that I can remember. I'll try the Dr. Nick's recommendations. What is there to lose?
I am 33yrs now and I started experiencing the symptoms when I was around 22yrs which shocked my dad because at my age it was too early to experience that. He's also having it though so I'm thinking it's something in the blood. I noticed that when I started taking a lot of sugary drinks of late, I urinate about 8 times in the day alone not talking of the night. I thank you doc. After watching your video I felt relieved from prostate although I'm now going to implement all you said in the video.

Dear Dr. Z...I appreciate your video and your suggestions but in addition to your opinion, can you cite any studies which actually PROVES that the prostate will actually SHRINK by following these dietary changes. Many other expert doctors have suggested that nothing like this will actually SHRINK the prostate once it has enlarged. So, we can understand that these dietary changes and supplements can perhaps PREVENT further enlargement but can they REVERSE the size of an already enlarged prostate ? What is the truth ? Thank you for your help
Leon - very good comment and question. I wonder this myself after watching hundreds of prostate videos. If you put the words 'shrink' and 'prostate' in a video title you are guaranteed many clicks. There are drugs like Avocet that are 5-a-reductase inhibitors that actually shrink the prostate so apparently it is possible. Many supplements like nettle root, saw palmetto and others contain 'natural' 5-a-r inhibitors, but not as powerful as what pharma cooks up, so we're not likely to get results more than a reduction of symptoms. I have also researched and tried may of the Ayurvedic medicines like Kanchanaar Guggul, Varuna, Chandraprabha Vati, Shilajit, Tribulus, etc. I have also tried homeopathy. I am 71 - my conclusion is that there is no magic supplement, diet, or exercise. Yet doing all in the form of a healthy prostate lifestyle are extremely important preventative measures. Our prostates do not exist in a vacuum. They are a part of the whole body and interact with all the other organs and systems. We don't wake up one morning with an enlarged prostate - the process begins in out 30's. Years of excessive sitting, bad diet, stress, lack of sun and exercise do take a toll. There are other types of tumors and growths that can grow in our bodies, and they can also shrink. This leaves me wondering as you do, is it possible to REVERSE an enlarged prostate.
@@michaelfforte Hi M...Nice review of the known potential elements which the evidence seems to suggest DO shrink the prostate a bit but not enough to cure the problem. If any of these really were really effective we would have solved this insidious problem already instead of just " managing " the symptoms. Western medicine has a nasty habit of dismissing things like this as " normal " and part of aging and that we cannot do anything about it, which is admission only of ignorance and an admission of failure. There are many places in the world, like Japan, where getting an enlarged prostate is not an automatic function of aging in men. Whenever you see some sort of degenerative condition which is so widespread in a particular population you are justified to conclude that there is some COMMON THREAD, some aspect of that life style which many men engage in but which we do not immediately recognize as pathogenic and which is the root cause of that problem. . It could be something as simple and universal as our municipal WATER supplies with their toxins and heavy metals and minerals. The point is that having an enlarged prostate is NOT normal and it not a natural product of aging and our challenge to the medical research community is to tell them to roll up their sleeves and figure out the common trigger and not just be satisfies with calling it " normal " and just continue selling us useless drugs and treating symptoms. I for one will be investigating the possible benefits of OXYGEN THERAPY in the form of HYDROGEN PEROXIDE and see if it can also help this condition since THOUSANDS of scientific articles have been written which seem to demonstrate that this has helped cure dozens of other medical conditions and dysfunctions. GOD has given us a magnificent design of life with unlimited capacity for self repair and maintenance and it is up to us to figure better out how it works and how to better access these functionalities and to STOP INTERFERING with some of the very systems that the CREATOR GOD gave us to protect us. Cheers
Thank you for those tips mate. I have found saw Palmetto helps but perhaps I need green ttea and more tomatoes. Unfortunately since my knees are shot I can't walk far at all. At 85 now I guess I'm at the worst time for the problems ehh I have found at night I sometimes can't wee at all, but laying on my side in bed and use a small jar I can usually do an inch in the jar. I figured the weight of my stomach must squeeze the prostate a bit too 5'9" and 85kg.
Thank you lots of good points Go to 3.50 if your very busy and are already aware of the background. If we turn this thing on it’s head it seems that this condition is the result of modern day living Turn the clock back 80 years and most men over 50 had a perfectly normal prostate There are so many factors here rather than not eating this and that we need to stop living lives eating processed food buying plastics and thinking pills and fancy packed vitamins and supplements are any kind of solution You may think this is impossible in todays world and I agree it’s not easy as most of us in the west eat not because we are hungry but out of habit basically we eat for pleasure. So to drink just lots of green tea and live on cabbage and organic vegetable soups with a little protein and a selection of fresh fruits is unthinkable ,,But Hold on …Actually that is very simple and if your health is in a nose dive it may well save you Fact is We choose Thanks doc for the excellent advice one thing you obviously can not say but I can is don’t put much trust in general doctors we have to take responsibility as individuals for ourselves and the decisions we take when consuming

@@RaiseTheBar4Truth hi there, I am on a keto lifestyle myself. Could you please comment or explain why you said to cut out salt? I’ve been taught the opposite. Thank you in advance.
I reduced symptoms by limiting sugar and dairy intake, eating more almonds and pumpkin seeds, drinking more green tea and doing intermittent fasting during the week.
I never get up at night any more. Usually I felt the urge as soon as I was in bed and literally getting out 5 times to squeeze out a drop. That's gone too.
Emptying the blatter is still an issue sometimes, but what helps is to pee sitting down, relax and just have patience. Don't squeeze/push it out.
Eggs and dairy in the diet results in approximately 2/3 more instance of prostate cancer. Prostate 'issues' allways seem to preceed prostate cancer.
@@smorgdonkey References? Complete nonsense about eggs. 4 to 6 eggs a day will shrink your prostate thanks to correcting testosterone levels and all the vitamin D. Low fat dairy is bad due the growth hormone in milk.
@@wanderingaussies8172 the references are listed in Diet For A New America, a book that has been around for 35+/- years OR you could just do a few minutes of searches. IE: "Egg yolks are rich in arachidonic acid, a substance that increases inflammation which can affect the prostate gland. Nonetheless, the entire content of an egg has been shown that aggravates BPH symptoms. On the whole, eggs are part of the worst foods for prostate health.Sep 1, 2022"
@@smorgdonkey Thank you I will look at that reference, it does disagree with many papers I have read along with personal and other's experience. It is bad to eat just the whites or just the yellows on their own there are different components that cancel each other out when eaten together. The yolk contains 100% of the carotenoids, essential fatty acids like omega-3 fatty acid DHA and omega-6 fatty acid arachidonic acids. If you consider the acid on its own and with nothing else it is possible to draw the wrong conclusions. Olive oil for eg has omega 6 yet it also has anti inflammatory properties despite having omega 6 which can cause inflammation. I changed my life moving to 6 eggs a day and don't need drugs anymore.
Thank you i follow your steps!🙏🏼
Saw palmetto stinging nettle root
I’m 58, and have been plant based for 5 years. I don’t eat highly processed foods, I don’t use oils, stopped drinking alcohol and coffee……and still my PSA is 6, and BPH is still present, I get up 3-4 times a night.
One thing I believe you missed is exercise.
My BMI is 21. Maybe it’ll drop more now I’ve cut out alcohol, and I’m signed up again for cross fit 3 times a week. Wish I could figure out why BPH still present and PSA still too high when I take such good intentional care of myself.
Switch from plant based to keto. High protein/fat and low carb diet. See if that helps.
Sitting at a desk for too long can be a problem. Try and remember to get up and move about a bit regularly
With the exception of cranberry, I have been using these supplements with a low carb diet for years. At 71, no problems yet but fingers crossed!
Organic pumpkin seeds have been a big help to me. Also, I drink green or nettle tea daily which are great
Did it help? Can it actually shrink ur prostate?
@@rynhardtnel6401 it has helped me. Diet and some exercise are the keys. I also take an organic saw palmetto supplement.
@@rynhardtnel6401 something else that's huge is to incorporate is zinc, saw palmetto, boron, pygeum stinging nettle, lycopene. 👉🏼 NOW THE MAIN THING I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU ADVICE ON IS TRY THIS STAY AWAY FROM SUGAR, IF YOU HAVE A HARD TIME TO STAY AWAY FROM THE SUGAR DON'T EAT JUNK FOOD TRY TO EAT GET IT FROM FRUITS BUT STAY AWAY FROM SUGAR MAN AND PROCESSED FOODS AND ALSO SOME GRAINS. SUGAR PLAYS A HUGE PART THOUGH INSULIN IS HUGE IN THIS PROSTATE. I would even also recommend to try or start intermittent fasting, start slowly. Definitely cut out the sugar and take the supplements and see how you feel, good luck.

Thank you, best wishes to you.
Referencing the point you made at the beginning about men who don't try to take care of themselves, once again I seem to be in the minority of my demographic. I'm actively looking for ways to address my BPH with out surgery. A year ago I had prostatic artery embolization (restricts blood flow to the prostate). At the beginning of this year (2023) I switched from a low fat/high carb diet to a high fat/low carb diet. The most immediate effect of that change is I've lost a lot of weight (which I needed to do) and am backing away from a pre-diabetic condition.
The immediate effect on my prostate was that my symptoms got worse. But I expected that. Prostates are temperamental beasts and don't want anything about their environment to change. They don't want their blood flow cut off. They don't want their supply of nutrients reduced. In recent days my symptoms have improved a little, but this is going to be a long road.
What was the result of the PAE ? I’m considering having it done.
L
>
In my case, I had four months of gradual improvement through the end of July 2022. I plateaued the first two weeks of August 2022, then my symptoms started coming back.
I've done a bit of research. In the first 1-3 years, PAE is effective in about 82% of patients. 5-6 years out, it's, I forget exactly, 75% or 76% effective.
In the last month or so I'm seeing results from the nutritional approach. Last Saturday (April 16, 2023) I went shopping at Trader Joe's, then Aldi, then Dollar Tree, and only realized later that I hadn't needed to pee, or ever thought about peeing, until I got home a bit over 2 hrs later. At the start of 2023, I'd have had to use the bathroom at TJ, use it again at Aldi, and then find a store with a bathroom near DT. Or sneak out behind their dumpsters.
Why does PAE fail? Probably, the prostate is recruiting an existing minor blood vessel to bulk up and supply more blood; PAE doesn't block off all of the organ's blood, just restricts it. But if there's one thing an enlarged prostate knows how to do, it's recruit more blood flow.
With the nutritional approach, I've taken away most of its glucose, and there's much less insulin in my blood inducing it to grow. So far it doesn't have a work-around for that. However, it could be that having undergone PAE first, I'm getting results faster with my dietary changes than I would be without it.
Good luck, how have you been?
1 hour of walking everyday helps a lot

Very informative video. I recently experienced some bladder/urinating problems and are doing research around this "Prostate" issue. Your recommendations is spot on, compared to other reputable (Real Doctors, no UA-camrs trying to cash in)
It goes to show that in 2023 we really need to look out for ourselves like never before. There are some brilliant docs out there like Dr Sten Ekberg, Proffessor Thomas seyfried, and many others giving ut the advice we need.
I have myself, this last week, stopped drinking beer, coffee and fizzy drinks. I just drink water and green tea now. Hated the first day but my health comes first now. I have no sugar and follow a low carb diet. I have never felt so switched on to what i NEED rather than what Ronald Macdonald, coca cola, Heinz, the meat industry and Kellogs etc etc want me to consume.
Come on people, let's start looking out for ourselves and each other real well.
Thanks for a very informative and reassuring video
Thanks Doctor. From Bangladesh.
Keep in mind just because you can’t empty. Your bladder doesn’t mean you have prostate issues. You could have pelvic floor issues that was myself and I had to correct my doctor from prescribing life-changing or altering medication because he was wrong.
If testosterone causes EP, how come when youngmen with higher level of testosterone don't have EP but older men with a reduced level of testosterone have Ep. Just asking.
Idk
Have you done anything for the pelvic floor that has helped ?
@@jeffreyferguson8234 Yes, I did about eight months of pelvic floor. Physical therapy helped quite a bit, but the symptoms came back here in the last week.
EXCELLENT. INFO. THANKS. IM. TRYING. THE. PLUM TOMATOES 🍅. ITS. GOT. A GOOD. EFFECT. THANKS
Excellent video Dr. Thank you!
Great video. Thank you for the info. But for anyone with prostate issues - if it gets to the point where it is affecting your daily life significantly, the go-to management for it still is TURP. Please talk to your doctor about it. And what other options you have available to you.
Night time is my real problem, during the day my pissing is pretty normal. If I sit for a long time I get symptoms, but at night I often have to pee every couple hours. Takine Flomax has really helped sometimes I can sleep 3-5 straight hours which is more or less normal. I'm 71 so sleeping all night without getting up is many years behind me...
Check out Beta Sitosterol and Zinc supplementation.
After 7 pm don't drink any type water/ liquid food.
15 years ago whilst in Celebration Hospital Florida the surgeon i got to know very well said to me whilst peeing try to stop then resume your peeing 3-5 times during your visit to the toilet.. it will help your prostrate... And yes i have done this practice ever since my operation..
Well said 👏 at 73, I'm on many of the good supplements you recommend... would only add the old familiar saying " use it or loose it."
I'm open for any suggestions that will help me alleviate my problem
Meaning? Have more sex?
I’m 48 and have had symptoms for years, in the last 4 months I started taking prostforce and It helped a lot. Not completely better but at least 50 percent better. Used to get up 3 times a night and felt pressure there , now I maybe get up once or not at all and no pressure. So It definitely helps and it’s not very expensive, health food stores or Amazon you can get it .🍻
Do you sell the product ?
@@robertoverdi232 no I just use it……????
check your glucose, make a trial remove all carbs from diet for 2 weeks and see is it any better. If it helps , then continue eating without carbs. Google it. Good luck
Take the testosterone down with Androcur. That always helps.

Taking shilagit helps a lot.
My husband broke his leg and was in the hospital for 2 weeks. He suffered terribly with urgency, frequency and burning for 3 weeks. I remembered he used to take an ibuprofen before bed to help lessen urination at night. He was on 4 pain medications all that time, but the urinary symptoms became worse than the broken leg. Only one ibuprofen fixed the problem. He will go back to at least one ibuprofen a day.
That sure sounds like a bladder infection...
Be carful with ibuprofen you can damage your kidneys or even kidney failure
Does stinging nettle root reduce size.
Thanks the medicine got lot side effects like etching on my skin when I stop fenstride it went away very good present action Thanks dr
Which medication gave the side effects
Been on finasteride for about 20 years. Has kept my hair and my PSA at .03. Im 59 yrs old. Used to use 1mg daily but now only use 3 mg a week. Read that once your skin is saturated with finasteride you don't need that much. Have been on this dosage for over a year. No change and I have never had any side effects ie sexual or otherwise.
Iam very scared about finasteride because of the sexual side effects....to shrink prostate my uro prescribed my 5mg a day of this but I never taken...i am only on tamsulosin....you have some numbers about your prostate volume before and after or you taken only for hair? Thank you
My doctor had me taking 10 mg / day. Too much?
@@byrnc927 usually for finasteride is 5mg daily basis....but if your doctor prescribed you 10mg ....
@@byrnc927 I used finasteride for both BPH and hair loss. I took 5 mg/day for a while, then started cutting pills into quarters so I was averaging 1.25 mg/day. Probably did that for a few years. Then one day I developed an ejaculation disorder. That definitely sucks. I stopped all finasteride for several years, but eventually my hair loss was really bothering me so I started fin again, now taking 1 mg three times a week in a ten weeks on, two weeks off schedule. It's at least not making the ejaculation thing worse, and my hair stopped falling out, so that's good. I'd recommend the 1 mg three times a week, ten weeks on two weeks off protocol for anyone using finasteride for hair loss. I've never heard of anyone using 10 mg/day. That seems high, but 5 mg knocks down your DHT so much that 10 might not do that much more.
@@byrnc927that's a lot; 10mg and no sides? My doc started me w 5mg but that gave me gynecomastia so I just backed it off to 1.25mg every other day and my prostate( and hair) are stable and no sides...
I attended a prostrate seminar around the year 2000 since I had and have low stream. One presenter said the nation with the least amount of prostrate cancer was China. I asked from what the Chinese were dying. The presenter said stomach cancer!
The seminar also made the point that most men die with prostrate cancer - not from it. Autopsies show that the precursor to prostate cancer can begin as early as a male in their teens.
These are the points that stood out to me that I can remember.
I'll try the Dr. Nick's recommendations. What is there to lose?
I am 33yrs now and I started experiencing the symptoms when I was around 22yrs which shocked my dad because at my age it was too early to experience that.
He's also having it though so I'm thinking it's something in the blood. I noticed that when I started taking a lot of sugary drinks of late, I urinate about 8 times in the day alone not talking of the night.
I thank you doc. After watching your video I felt relieved from prostate although I'm now going to implement all you said in the video.

Thanks doctor. No fluff, just info.
I'm not surprised these days to hear about all the cancer and illnesses people are becoming prone to. People are learning these days that so many procedures are performed for the money. People forget that the medical industry is first a business, and a business needs a steady flow of income to stay in business, just like any other business. People, I'm afraid, are just ignorant about this. There are many simple and natural lifestyles that were being kept in the dark about to keep us ill. The intake of large amounts of sugar is probably the biggest mistake were doing. All plants contain glucose, fructose and sucrose. Check a botany text. I'm not saying not to eat veggies, but our digestive system is created to eat a balance with animal protein. Make sure you cook those veggies well. That's why ruminants, like cows, have multiple stomachs to digest vegetation. It's extremely hard to break down. That's why when you eat a salad, you'll often find some of your salad not broken down in the toilet, and veggies that aren't broken down will tear into the sensitive lining of your intestines. In these days, we're being pushed to eat vegan. If you eat vegan, you'll be taking in sugar 100% of the time. As for grains, we can't eat them unless they're processed. We can't eat them in a natural state. We don't have the flat grinding teeth needed that most herbivores have. Think about it. The logic is quite simple.

Dear Dr. Z...I appreciate your video and your suggestions but in addition to your opinion, can you cite any studies which actually PROVES that the prostate will actually SHRINK by following these dietary changes. Many other expert doctors have suggested that nothing like this will actually SHRINK the prostate once it has enlarged.
So, we can understand that these dietary changes and supplements can perhaps PREVENT further enlargement but can they REVERSE the size of an already enlarged prostate ? What is the truth ?
Thank you for your help
Leon - very good comment and question. I wonder this myself after watching hundreds of prostate videos. If you put the words 'shrink' and 'prostate' in a video title you are guaranteed many clicks.
There are drugs like Avocet that are 5-a-reductase inhibitors that actually shrink the prostate so apparently it is possible.
Many supplements like nettle root, saw palmetto and others contain 'natural' 5-a-r inhibitors, but not as powerful as what pharma cooks up, so we're not likely to get results more than a reduction of symptoms.
I have also researched and tried may of the Ayurvedic medicines like Kanchanaar Guggul, Varuna, Chandraprabha Vati, Shilajit, Tribulus, etc. I have also tried homeopathy.
I am 71 - my conclusion is that there is no magic supplement, diet, or exercise. Yet doing all in the form of a healthy prostate lifestyle are extremely important preventative measures. Our prostates do not exist in a vacuum. They are a part of the whole body and interact with all the other organs and systems. We don't wake up one morning with an enlarged prostate - the process begins in out 30's. Years of excessive sitting, bad diet, stress, lack of sun and exercise do take a toll.
There are other types of tumors and growths that can grow in our bodies, and they can also shrink. This leaves me wondering as you do, is it possible to REVERSE an enlarged prostate.
@@michaelfforte Hi M...Nice review of the known potential elements which the evidence seems to suggest DO shrink the prostate a bit but not enough to cure the problem. If any of these really were really effective we would have solved this insidious problem already instead of just " managing " the symptoms.
Western medicine has a nasty habit of dismissing things like this as " normal " and part of aging and that we cannot do anything about it, which is admission only of ignorance and an admission of failure. There are many places in the world, like Japan, where getting an enlarged prostate is not an automatic function of aging in men.
Whenever you see some sort of degenerative condition which is so widespread in a particular population you are justified to conclude that there is some COMMON THREAD, some aspect of that life style which many men engage in but which we do not immediately recognize as pathogenic and which is the root cause of that problem. . It could be something as simple and universal as our municipal WATER supplies with their toxins and heavy metals and minerals.
The point is that having an enlarged prostate is NOT normal and it not a natural product of aging and our challenge to the medical research community is to tell them to roll up their sleeves and figure out the common trigger and not just be satisfies with calling it " normal " and just continue selling us useless drugs and treating symptoms.
I for one will be investigating the possible benefits of OXYGEN THERAPY in the form of HYDROGEN PEROXIDE and see if it can also help this condition since THOUSANDS of scientific articles have been written which seem to demonstrate that this has helped cure dozens of other medical conditions and dysfunctions.
GOD has given us a magnificent design of life with unlimited capacity for self repair and maintenance and it is up to us to figure better out how it works and how to better access these functionalities and to STOP INTERFERING with some of the very systems that the CREATOR GOD gave us to protect us.
Cheers

Great. Analysis! Very. Helpful! Thanks. Doctor!🎈
Sir i have prostate enlargement 66cc, frequency, urgency urination,, which supplement I can use,,
Thank you lots of good points Go to 3.50 if your very busy and are already aware of the background.
If we turn this thing on it’s head it seems that this condition is the result of modern day living
Turn the clock back 80 years and most men over 50 had a perfectly normal prostate
There are so many factors here rather than not eating this and that we need to stop living lives eating processed food buying plastics and thinking pills and fancy packed vitamins and supplements are any kind of solution
You may think this is impossible in todays world and I agree it’s not easy as most of us in the west eat not because we are hungry but out of habit basically we eat for pleasure.
So to drink just lots of green tea and live on cabbage and organic vegetable soups with a little protein and a selection of fresh fruits is unthinkable ,,But
Hold on …Actually that is very simple and if your health is in a nose dive it may well save you
Fact is
We choose
Thanks doc for the excellent advice one thing you obviously can not say but I can
is don’t put much trust in general doctors
we have to take responsibility as individuals for ourselves and the decisions we take when consuming
