These three reasons can actually lead to male prostate cancer. How to prevent it

Prostate cancer is the most common tumor in men, and it is especially prevalent in large cities. The incidence of prostate cancer has increased more than 10 times in the past 20 years. Prostate cancer has become a fatal killer of men's health.

What causes prostate cancer?

1. High-fat liver diet

Excessive fatty liver intake, especially saturated fatty acid intake, has long been considered not only a high-risk factor for cardiovascular disease, but also a risk factor for prostate cancer. A high-fat liver diet can increase the level of circulating androgens, and high levels of androgens have long been considered a major factor in prostate cancer.

2. Carcinogenic factors in food

Several epidemiological studies have shown a positive correlation between prostate cancer and the intake of aromatic amines. Aromatic amines are produced when high-protein foods, especially fish and meat, are cooked at high temperatures. Prostate tissue can metabolically activate these carcinogens, and daily intake of aromatic amines is a risk factor for prostate cancer.

3. Drink milk regularly

The etiology study of WHO and 41 countries' statistical data found that the non-fat content in milk is highly positively correlated with the prostate cancer mortality rate among people aged 56-74. Because foreign men have a stronger habit of drinking milk than Chinese men, this is one of the reasons why foreign men have a higher incidence of prostate cancer than Chinese men. Some studies believe that milk intake is related to prostate cancer, and it works through calcium.

How to prevent prostate cancer

1. Moderate sex life

Excessive sexual intercourse or masturbation can damage the prostate. For example, newly married men are prone to prostatitis, which is often related to excessive sexual intercourse leading to excessive congestion of the prostate. On the contrary, long-term abstinence, which results in no outlet for sexual impulses, is also bad for the prostate. Therefore, men should learn to have regular sex and discharge prostatic fluid regularly.

2. Stay away from alcohol

Alcohol has a strong stimulating effect on the prostate, causing the blood vessels in the prostate to dilate, causing congestion and edema. Long-term drinking can reduce the resistance of the prostate, facilitate the growth and reproduction of prostate-resident bacteria, and induce acute and chronic prostatitis. Long-term chronic inflammatory stimulation will increase the risk of cancer.

3. Moderate exercise

The physiological position of the prostate determines that men "sit" on the prostate to a large extent, so sitting for a long time can cause big problems. Men who work in offices, use computers, and drive cars should strengthen physical exercise, and also pay attention to getting up and moving around during long periods of sitting to relieve pressure on the prostate.

4. Drink plenty of water and urinate frequently

Water is the source of life. Due to the busy work, sometimes it is common to not drink a sip of water for half a day. Little do people know that not drinking water will inevitably make the urine concentrated and the number of urinations will decrease. In addition, some people have the habit of holding urine, which will further increase the concentration of urine and even cause urine reflux, which is very bad for the prostate. Therefore, you should drink more water and urinate frequently, which is good for the health of the prostate.
