Patient's question:
Doctor, I have benign prostatic hyperplasia, but I don't understand this disease. I would like to consult, what should patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia pay attention to in their diet?Doctor's answer:
Avoid drinking strong alcohol and consuming spicy, greasy, and sweet foods. For patients with prostatitis, dietary precautions include: 1. Avoid drinking strong alcohol, consume less spicy, greasy, and sweet foods, limit coffee intake, and avoid highly acidic foods such as citrus and orange juice, as well as reducing the consumption of refined sugar and white flour. 2. Eat more fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and soy products. Consume honey regularly to maintain smooth bowel movements, and eat sufficient amounts of beef and eggs. 3. Consume seed-based foods, such as pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds, daily without restriction on quantity.
