GARLIC AND PROSTATE ISSUES PLUS BP- THE GHANA PERSPECTIVE


#PROSTATE CANCER AND GARLIC

Prostate cancer is one of the most common male malignancies worldwide, and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common cause of lower urinary tract symptoms in elderly men.
Garlic (Allium sativum) has been known to have anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer and antioxidant effects.
Owing to these effects, garlic and its preparations have been used for the treatment of prostate cancer and relief of BPH symptoms for decades. It is thought that the mechanism(s) through which garlic may show anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory effects should be investigated further.

Several researchers are attempting to demonstrate the useful properties of garlic and its mechanism(s) of action. This review aims to present the current studies related with the effects of garlic in prostate diseases, namely prostate cancer and BPH.

Garlic is also an all-round disease fighting product. Example, Research has shown that those taking garlic daily for three months had fewer colds than those who took a placebo, and, when they did come down with a cold, the duration of illness was shorter. Garlic must be used fresh to give you optimal health benefits.
To stimulate the process that catalyzes the formation of allicin, compress a fresh clove with a spoon prior to swallowing it, or put it through your juicer with other veggies.
I have just shared with you, garlic is fantastic when it comes to different types of cancers, and this will help not only reduce your prostate cancer risks, but other cancer risks as well.
