4 things men should pay attention to in preventing prostate cancer

The occurrence of prostate cancer is also affected by the season. Cold weather can increase the excitability of the sympathetic nerves, causing the prostate gland to contract, and the gland ducts and blood vessels to dilate, resulting in chronic congestion, which may induce the occurrence of prostate cancer over time. Men should pay attention to the following points to prevent prostate cancer.

1. Drink plenty of water

When the weather turns cold, the amount of water you drink should also increase, because drinking less water will make the urine concentrated and the frequency of urination will decrease, which will have an adverse effect on the prostate and other organs such as the kidneys and bladder. Generally, drinking more than 2 liters of boiled water or tea every day can flush the urethra through urination, promote the discharge of prostate secretions, and prevent prostate infection.

2. Urinate promptly

In winter, the pores are blocked and body fluids cannot be discharged through the pores, so people urinate more and more frequently in winter. Many people always try to hold back when they are in a hurry to urinate, but this attitude is not advisable. It can easily damage the prostate, cause urine reflux, harm high-position organs such as the kidneys and ureters, and even cause renal failure.

3. Reduce seated entertainment

There are many holidays in winter, and many people like to sit together and play mahjong and poker. Sitting for a long time every day without exercise, when men sit, the prostate is in a squeezed state. Frequent sitting can increase the burden on the prostate, causing prostate congestion, which can cause lesions over time. Therefore, recreational activities that require long sitting should be avoided as much as possible, including riding bicycles, motorcycles, and horses, in addition to mahjong.

4. Supplement zinc

Winter is an important season for supplementing body nutrition. Trace element zinc can increase the anti-infection effect of the prostate and improve the body's immunity. Men should take more zinc. Seafood, lean meat, whole grains, legumes, white melon seeds, peanut kernels, pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, etc. contain a lot of zinc.

Through the above introduction, I believe that friends should have some understanding. Patients must maintain a good attitude, which is also an important factor. After the patient is diagnosed with a tumor, the patient must not give up on himself, be pessimistic and negative, and must not blindly seek medical treatment, which will increase the difficulty and malignancy of the tumor treatment.
