Although many health concerns affect men and women alike, some are gender specific.

Such is the case with prostate health. Statistically, most men will experience an enlarged prostate in their lifetime.

The prostate is a walnut-sized gland located near the bladder. The urethra runs through the center of the prostate, letting urine flow out of the body. This gland grows throughout a man’s life.

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), also known as enlarged prostate, is a condition in which the prostate gland has grown larger than normal.

BPH is not cancerous and does not lead to cancer. But as the prostate enlarges, it can squeeze the urethra and cause the bladder wall to thicken, potentially causing various urinary symptoms.

Some of the problems associated with an enlarged prostate include the following:

• Frequent urination• Difficulty in voiding• Urinary leakage• Urinary tract infections

The prevalence of BPH is about 10 percent for men in their thirties, and 20 percent for men in their forties, according to the journal Reviews in Urology.

Men over 50 have a 50 percent chance of having BPH, while men over 80 have a 90 percent chance of having the condition. Statistics show approximately two million men currently receive treatment for BPH. Symptoms of BPH vary from man to man, and worsen over time as the prostate gland continues to enlarge.

Two of the main risk factors for BPH are advancing age and family history of the condition, things over which you have no control.

However, there are some lifestyle modifications you can make that can reduce your chances of getting BPH as well as minimize and eliminate your symptoms.

Lifestyle Choices May Protect Against BPH

*These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. These products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent disease. Please check with your physician when using prescription medications in combination with food supplements. All testimonials about ALTRUM nutritional products are non-scientific reports and are not intended to draw any direct cause and effect link between discussed events or “results” and consuming the nutrients contained in the products described. Results are individual and will vary from person to person.

Here are some of the lifestyle choices that can help you protect your prostate health.

• Focus on eating at least 5 to 8 servings of fruits and vegetables daily. Fruits and vegetables contain high levels of inflammation-fighting substances such as antioxidants, polyphenols, vitamins, minerals and fiber. Strong evidence points to the ability of these foods — which are rich in potent phytonutrients — to reduce the risk of developing an enlarged prostate.

• Consume good fats in moderation. Research shows that men who consume a diet low in red meat and overall fat are less likely to develop benign prostatic hyperplasia. When choosing fats, be sure to focus on healthy ones (monounsaturated, omega-3) such as those found in avocados, nuts, cold water fatty fish and plant oils such as olive oil.

• Choose plant protein over animal protein. Plant protein gives you all the nutrients and health benefits needed for maximum prostate health.

• Drink green tea. Green tea contains substances called catechins that travel throughout the body and take up residence in the prostate, where they can modulate the production and actions of hormones and may be useful in the treatment of BPH.

• Take well-researched supplements. Supplements that have been proven to be effective in clinical trials include beta-sitosterol, cranberry, DIM, green tea extract, Pygeum africanum, pollen extract, saw palmetto, stinging nettle root, vitamin D and zinc.

• Achieve and maintain a healthy weight. Numerous studies have shown a link between being overweight and having a high risk of BPH. Excess weight around the waist and hips is especially associated with a greater risk of BPH.

• Exercise regularly. A review of 14 studies that evaluated the impact of exercise on BPH found strong evidence that exercise helps prevent the development of BPH.

• Manage stress. Research shows that stress can worsen symptoms of BPH. Making stress management techniques, such as deep breathing, exercise and good nutrition a part of your daily routine may alleviate symptoms.

• Cut caffeine intake. Coffee, colas, some energy drinks, tea and chocolate are likely caffeine sources and can irritate your prostate and worsen BPH symptoms.

• Cut back on spicy and salty foods. These foods can make BPH symptoms worse.

• Limit alcohol. A moderate amount of alcohol (1 to 2 drinks daily) is considered safe, but more than a moderate number of drinks can irritate the prostate and symptoms of BPH.

• Don’t hold it. Delaying urination can worsen BPH symptoms and result in urinary tract infections.

• Keep diabetes under control. High blood sugar levels and obesity, two characteristics of diabetes, also are risk factors for BPH.

Last month, we told you about the big changes ahead for ALTRUM supplements. Over the course of the next year, we’ll be bringing you new formulas, new prices and a new look.

ALTRUM Prostate Health is the first of the new line to debut. It brings you the proven prostate nutrients you already trust — saw palmetto and stinging nettle. Added nutritional support comes from pumpkin seed oil, zinc, vitamin B-6 and lycopene.*

The supplements may be new, but they still contain state-of-the art ingredients and the same high quality you count on from ALTRUM.

Plus, ALTRUM Prostate Health offers added value with a 90-count bottle. That’s 50 percent more servings per bottle and a lower cost per daily serving.

Product DescriptionStandardized Saw Palmetto, Stinging Nettle and Lycopene

ALTRUM Prostate Health contains a blend of standardized extracts of herbs and nutrients in a balanced formulation.

Saw Palmetto has been shown in clinical studies to support prostate function.*

We have provided additional nutritional support with Pumpkin Seed Oil, Zinc, Vitamin B-6 and Lycopene.

New ALTRUM Prostate Health (ALPH) will be released when inventory of the old Prostate Formula (DPF) is exhausted, which should occur in April.
