If you have an enlarged prostate, you should avoid these four things.

0:34 Men who eat dairy have a hard time urinating because dairy causes their prostate to swell even more
1:49 Soy is number four on this list

Over the last 29 years treating clients, I’ve observed four foods men with an enlarged prostate should avoid.

The first one is dairy. That includes cheese, milk, yogurt, cream cheese, and sour cream. And even butter. Why? I’ve noticed that men who consume dairy have a difficult time urinating because their prostate swells even more. The prostate is like a sponge for hormones, and dairly is full of them, especially growth hormone. If you don’t have a prostate problem, an occasional serving of grass-fed dairy is fine.

Second is vegetable oils, for instance the ones in salad dressing. They contain omega 6 fatty acid and are inflammatory. I especially mean corn, canola, and soy oil, which are also GMO. But olive oil is fine!

Third is sugar. This is a given! I also include the foods that turn into sugar, like grains, bread, and pasta.

Fourth is soy, not just soy oil but soy in general. Read labels, because many foods have soy in them. Soy can be a problem because of its estrogenic factors.

Those are the four foods I strongly recommend you avoid if you have an enlarged prostate.

My grandfather lived most of his life with an enlarged prostate, all his life loved cheese and dairy products in general died age 98 from a fall my uncle was a vegetarian for nearly 20 years died age 56 from a circulatory disease ! All things that live die this is why you must find joy in the living while the time is yours and not fear the end !

Stopping dairy today and sugar!! Two weeks ago my PSA levels came at 9. I had been drinking milk with cookies every night for the 2:14 past 6 months. I started taking zinc, boron and eating pumpkin seeds and will retest in one month!!

Foods that are rich in Vit C, Zinc & omega 3 are extremely helpful! Like Bell peppers, Kale, Indian Gooseberrys, Brussel sprouts, broccoli, sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds, Nuts and Sea foods can be consumed to naturally reduce enlarged prostate!(BPH) Additionally pelvic floor exercises and some yoga poses like bow pose & cobbler pose can do wonders if done on regular basis!

Again a great video of Dr Berg ! It takes him only 2 minutes to tell us what the doctors do not tell us, at least mine (in Europe) did not tell me.

Diagnosed with prostate cancer in June 2019. I started eating like this July 1st. Due to Covid 19 no follow up biopsy. Last week I met with Doctor and declined another follow up biopsy.He performed a rectal exam he stated with surprise my prostate was how normal size, along with a PSA of 4.2.I am 61 years of age and have had an enlarged prostate since the age of 48...

I've had a history of pain attacks in my prostate, but I've brought it under control by noting what I'd eaten before one of these attacks. Dairy is definitely a factor although butter doesn't seem to be a problem for me, whereas yogurt seems to bring it on. Other foods that caused these short lived pain attacks were hot dogs. I haven't had a hotdog in 25 years, and I don't miss them. I avoid the cheeses for sure. I don't eat soy, or anything made from it. I consume no oils. I didn't know about the sugar, I'm pretty low on that too. I'm 60, not overweight, everything works.

Erec thanks for solving my problem. You are absolutely correct about dairy products bad for enlarged prostates. I was consuming about 350 grms of yogurt daily.

My doctor sent me to a diet and diabetes nutritionist. And she told me to drink milk. Have a cup of fruit. Eat lean meats for less calories. Any yogurt is fine unless it has added sugar. I’m just so frustrated on how much opposing information there is.

Dr Berg is exactly how a good Docter is there to educate and consult by always encouraging change of habits and diet first
Natural is best but it all starts with personal responsibility.

Hi Dr. Berg - Good video! Avoiding dairy is understandable. However, is all dairy the same?
For example please address the following as to which--if any is ok:
1. What about organic grass fed A2/A2 milk or products made from organic grass fed A2/A2 milk?
2. What about goat milk or goat milk cheese products? Hard vs. soft cheeses?
3. What about sheep milk or sheep milk cheese products? Hard vs. soft cheeses?
3. What about hard cheeses in general from Europe - for ex. Parmigiano Reggiano, Gorgonzola, French Brie?

Please be specific as these impact quality of life of men and if any of them are ok--it can be a big deal. Much Thanks.

I have no issues after consuming those foods listed - none. Paprika spice is a freakin' monster though. Second to that is freshly ground black pepper. Keep a daily record of foods that cause your prostate to swell. You'll know it because you'll feel a painful discomfort and it will be hard to micturate, and you're going to be doing a lot of it. Everyone is different and responds differently to certain foods, so be aware of what you eat. Check ALL packaged food ingredient labels! Good luck! 👍🏻🍀
