How to prevent and care for prostate cancer?

Prostate cancer refers to an epithelial malignant tumor that occurs in the prostate gland. Its incidence increases with age. So, how can we prevent and care for prostate cancer? The following are some preventive and care measures for prostate cancer.

1. Use all available means to conduct a detailed inspection.

2. Patients who cannot be diagnosed should be followed up regularly and resected early if necessary.

3. When elderly people undergo health checks, special attention should be paid to the condition of the prostate.

4. It is also a good choice to choose foods rich in lycopene in your daily diet. Tomatoes, apricots, guava, watermelon, papaya and red grapes all contain more lycopene, among which tomatoes have the highest content.

5. Ensure adequate intake of selenium in food. Authoritative medical clinical experiments have shown that men with high selenium concentrations in their blood are 4 to 5 times less likely to develop prostate cancer. Selenium is commonly found in the soil. Eggs and mackerel contain a lot of inorganic selenium. Compared with inorganic selenium, organic selenium in green vegetables is more conducive to human absorption. Male friends can eat more garlic, broccoli and gyro mushrooms to better absorb organic selenium, which can effectively prevent prostate cancer.
