The one trick you are missing is L-Arginine. I have enlarged prostate, and yet I sleep through the night. I used to wake up 2 or 3 times per night until I discovered that the hormone vasopressin, which regulates blood pressure, but also has a secondary function to tell your kidneys to re-absorb water during the night ... I discovered that vasopressin is very similar to L-Arginine, and in fact it is produced from L-Arginine. When I read that, I went and bought a bottle of L-Arginine. I take 1 gram a day (500 mg twice a day), and the night-peeing goes away. If I ever I'm out of Arginine, after a few days I start having to get up at night, so I know it is Arginine that fixes the problem for me.

I stopped using sugar and eating sweets, no more peeing at night

Different to what he is saying about tomato, it actually helped me shrink my prostate. Lycopene, which is found in abundance in tomato, is a very helpful carotenoid and the most effective and cost effective way of shrinking prostate.

Always loved Dr. Gundry, but love him even more knowing he sleeps with his rescue dogs

[mervschetter]

I"am 81 and just got over the prostate problem, first added zinc, d3, k1 and k2 and psyllium husk whole as a stool softener, and feed up with the medical system management system???? and the so called prescriptions such as flow Max that causes constipation?? witch causses pressure on the prostate to further the problem????

[JamesAgbedor]

Other health specialists recommend highly the consumption of tomatoes as it contains lycopene which is very good for the prostrate. But you are saying otherwise.

I started taking Vitamin D just before bed and noticed I stopped getting up to pee. Literally went from peeing once twice a night to not at all and get full night's rest. I'm sure there's some correlation here..

[vicentemonsalve]

Dr. Gundry, you just saved me!, I started to suffer from this night peeing some time ago, I suspected that my IBS was behind it, you just confirmed this to me!, I’ll be buying your book, thank you!

[jorgeaugustoamorimdesousa]

Thank you doctor . Having a very small dinner or no dinner at all and no drinking 5 hours before going to bed helps a lot. If you are a man, place a container by bedside on the floor, then just use it to pee into while in bed, no need to get up, do that when you wake up to dispose of the urine. Your voice is pleasant and the rhythm of your speech as well, without that hipertensive speech of many YouTubers, and absence of that irritating background noise. American accent can be annoying but I enjoyed listening to yours.

[mariarooney]

Excellent. Thank you. I’m second generation Italian and we naturally ate this way. I never realized how it contributed to my health, although adopting the American diet has influenced negative habits like eating too much sugar, etc.This information and other YT influencers have given me what it takes to be as healthy as I can be. Thanks. ❤️

I got know a number of men that tell me they snore, always fall asleep on the cough with the TV on. They get annoyed, defensive, when I tell them they have sleep apnea, which I have. I am not overweight. People view the issue as a weakness.

[debbieminton]

I do have Gerd. My bed is raised, and I do prefer left side, and this is the way I sleep most of the time.

[marya]

I have tried cpap, mouth appliances, sleeping on my side, etc. I started mouth taping. Works wonders! Deep sleep and lots of dreams.

[stevensumner]

I add a piece of Celtic sea salt before I drink 12 ounces of water. I get dehydrated easily. I try to drink as much I can. also eat pumpkin seeds daily.Don’t really understand how. I also eat Natto and fermented foods

I've recently switched from sleeping on my right side to my left, and one of the differences I've noticed upon awakening in the morning is that the swelling I used to have in my lower left leg is virtually nonexistent now. I still may experience it a bit during the day, but overall the occurrences have significantly reduced.
