Patient's question:
These days, I don't know what's wrong, but I always feel like I have to urinate urgently. However, when I go to the toilet, it feels like there isn't much urine. Sometimes it's just a drop or two. During morning urination, I even noticed that my urine was split. After consulting, it seems to be prostatic hyperplasia. Please ask: What should I avoid eating with prostatic hypertrophy?Doctor's answer:
Prostate enlargement patients should avoid drinking strong alcohol and consuming spicy, greasy, and sweet foods. Here are five dietary points for prostate patients to follow:1. Avoid drinking strong alcohol, limit spicy and greasy foods, reduce coffee intake, and avoid highly acidic foods like citrus and orange juice, as well as white sugar and refined flour.
2. Eat more fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and soy products. Consume honey regularly to maintain smooth bowel movements, and eat plenty of beef and eggs.
3. Include seed-based foods such as pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds in your diet, with no restrictions on the quantity, as needed.
4. Boil green beans until soft to make porridge, and eat it chilled as desired. This is especially beneficial for those with bladder heat and painful urination.
5. Do not reduce water intake due to frequent urination. Drinking more water helps dissolve urine.
Prostate enlargement tends to fluctuate, requiring long-term medication use.
