We all know that daily diet has a great impact on health. So, men should make reasonable arrangements for a daily diet to treat prostatitis better. Some foods may affect the effectiveness of treatment. For such foods, men need to avoid eating them.

What can men not eat when suffering from prostatitis? Let's look at the 5 kinds of food that Prostatitis patients cannot eat.

1. Spicy food

In daily life, one of the reasons that can cause prostatitis is to eat stimulating food for a long time, such as pepper, which can lead to repeated prostate congestion. Therefore, in the prevention and health care of prostatitis, men should pay attention to controlling irritating food. For example, stimulating foods such as scallions, garlic, chili peppers, and pepper can cause vasodilation and organ congestion. This is a major factor in the recurrence of prostatitis.

2. Alcoholic beverages

Alcohol can stimulate the prostate, causing congestion, which can cause pain and poor urination. It is suggested that patients with prostatitis should avoid drinking or reduce the amount of drinking. In addition, even drinking a small amount of alcohol daily can directly cause prostate congestion. Therefore, abstinence is essential for patients with prostatitis, especially during the acute infection period.

3. Coffee or strong tea

Caffeine can stimulate the prostate, exacerbate prostate congestion, and cause pain and discomfort. It is recommended that patients with prostatitis drink less or no coffee. Prostatitis patients can drink moderate amounts of tea daily, but they must not drink strong tea. Especially when patients with prostatitis are accompanied by restlessness, insomnia, and palpitations, it is not suitable to drink tea because the caffeine contained in the tea cup can aggravate the condition of patients with prostatitis.

4. Pickled food

Preserved food contains a lot of salt, nitrite, and other substances, aggravating the degree of prostatitis. It is suggested that patients with prostatitis should avoid eating pickled food.

5. Dairy products

Dairy products contain a large amount of calcium, which can affect the secretion of prostate fluid. Moreover, consuming a large amount of calcium through dairy products daily can suppress the vitamin D level in the blood. In addition to being an essential nutrient, vitamin D can also prevent the occurrence of prostatitis.

Patients with prostatitis who pay attention to these dietary taboos can promote the recovery of the disease. But they should focus on drug treatment if they want to recover from prostatitis.

What medicine can a patient with prostatitis take to have the best effect?

Prostatitis is an inflammation of the body that occurs in the male reproductive organs. The most effective and thorough way to treat inflammation is to diminish inflammation, which is the same for prostatitis. There are many kinds of prostatitis, so to achieve the goal of thorough treatment, men must find out the specific types of prostatitis and then prescribe the right medicine so that men can get twice the result with half the effort.

As is well known, traditional Chinese medicine poses far less harm to the human body than Western medicine. Western medicine may have a good therapeutic effect on prostatitis, but its side effects are also great. That is to say, the side effects it brings to the human body are also significant. So, men can try traditional Chinese medicine to eliminate symptoms and root causes and treat diseases to ensure their physical health.

The patient takes Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill to treat prostatitis with apparent effects, which can make the effect of Chinese medicine directly reach the affected area. In addition to sterilization and anti-inflammatory, the formula also strengthens the promotion of blood circulation and blood stasis, making the prostate qi and blood unobstructed and the tissues active, which is conducive to the early recovery of the prostate.
