Home Remedies for Prostate Disorders



The natural treatment for prostate enlargement consists of detoxicating the system by proper fasting and diet. To begin with, the patient should forgo all solid foods and subsist on orange juice and water only, for two or three days. The intake of water should be as plentiful as possible. The water may be taken cold or hot and it should be taken every hour or so when awake. This will greatly increase the flow of urine.

A warm water enema should be taken once daily during this period to clear the lower bowel of accumulations. After thorough cleansing of the bowels, hot and cold applications may be used directly on the prostate gland and its supprounding parts. The heat relieves the tissues and a brief cold immersion tones them up. The patient should also take alternate hot and cold hip baths. These are of great value in relieving pain and reducing congestion. While taking hip baths, it should be ensured that the buttocks and pelvis are well covered with water. The hot bath should be taken first for 10 minutes, followed by cold bath for one minute only.

After the short juice fast, the patient should adopt an all- fruit diet for three days. The fruits should include apple, pear, orange, grape-fruit, grapes, sweet lime, mango, melon and all other juicy fruits. This will help to clear toxins from the body and will also enable excess fat to be reduced to some extent.

The exclusive fruit diet should be followed by a restricted diet comprising two meals of fruits and one of cooked vegetables for further seven days. The vegetable meal should be taken in the evening and could consist of all kinds of cooked vegetables, preferably steam cooked. The short juice fast, followed by an all-fruit diet and a further period on fruits and vegetables may be repeated after two or three months if necessary depending on the progress being made.

Pumpkin seeds have been found to be an effective home remedy for prostate problems. These seeds are rich in unsaturated fatty acids which are essential to the health of the prostate.

The use of zinc has been found valuable in several cases of prostate disorders. About 30 mg. of this mineral should be taken daily in the treatment of these diseases.

Hot and cold applications are highly beneficial in the treatment of prostate disorders. After thorough cleansing of the bowels through warm water enema, hot and cold applications may be used directly on the prostate gland and its surrounding parts. The heat relieves the tissues and a brief cold immersion tones them up. The patient should take alternate hot and cold hip baths. These are of great value in relieving pain and reducing congestion.
The patient should avoid sexual excess, irregularities in eating and drinking, long periods of sitting and vigorous exercise. He should guard against constipation by taking plenty of fruits, bran and nuts. All efforts should be made to tone up the general condition of the body.
