Can Garlic
Stimulate
Prostatitis?

2. The prostate is one of the male
genitourinary organs, which is
located in the pelvic cavity and
close to the bladder neck mouth.
Its main functions include
secreting prostatic fluid and
controlling the number of
urination. The prostate, which has
been called "the unique lifeline of
men", shows the importance of the
prostate to men. Maintaining a
healthy prostate gland has also
become the preferred way for
men to keep fit.

3. However, in daily life, many male
friends develop bad behavior
habits, which will cause certain
damage to the prostate. For
example, staying up late for long
periods, being sedentary, smoking,
and drinking alcohol can damage
the prostate. Therefore, we
should pay attention to the timely
correction of bad habits. Of
course, we should also pay
attention to our diets.

4. Can Garlic Stimulate
Prostatitis?

5. Garlic is a usual kind of food for
every family. It is a common
condiment and has anti-
inflammatory and bactericidal
effects. Some say, "A garlic a day
and diseases go away," and others
say, "Meat without garlic tastes
half as good ."Examples like these
are many. People who like to eat
garlic cannot eat their meals
without garlic.

6. Although the taste of garlic is
unique, its nutritional value is high.
Garlic is spicy and stimulating
food that contains rich allicin,
dietary fiber, vitamin C, vitamin E,
a famous antioxidant, and other
components.

7. Eating garlic regularly can enhance
the body's resistance and
immunity and prevent cancer to a
certain extent. However, some
people believe that garlic is spicy
and stimulating, and eating garlic
frequently will stimulate the
prostate and aggravate the
disease.

8. This statement, honestly, sounds a
little one-sided. Although garlic is
a specific stimulation, garlic is
believed to have anti-
inflammatory and bactericide
effects. Thus, men with
prostatitis regularly eating garlic
will not aggravate the disease. The
fact is, eating garlic may even
have specific improvement of the
condition.

9. Even so, it is recommended that
people eat garlic in moderation.
Every coin has two sides.
Excessive consumption of garlic
will also bring certain safety risks
to the body.
The spicy and pungent garlic will
lead to vasodilatation when people
eat it too often or for a long time.
In such cases, the resistance of
the prostate might be reduced.
Worse still, the bacteria and
germs near the prostate might
breed, proliferate and induce
acute prostatitis.

10. So, no matter how much one likes
a particular food, one should eat it
in moderation. Diseases come in at
the mouth. Some diseases can be
prevented by controlling how and
what one eats.

11. If prostatitis has been diagnosed,
patients need to take the right
treatment, mainly medication. In
addition to antibiotics, traditional
Chinese medicine Diuretic and
Anti-inflammatory Pill can
eliminate all symptoms associated
with prostatitis in patients
without causing harm to the body.

your condition and
