Garlic for the prostate
by Cam
(Pittsburgh, PA)
I use raw garlic and Garlic Rich by Natural Factors. Garlic can increase testosterone levels. I really can't come to a conclusion if garlic is harmful or helpful to the prostate. I have an enlarged prostate at 37 cc which is quite problematic with some prostatitis after getting a cystocsopy last year. This prostatitis popped up again this year. I'm considering having Prostatic Artery Embolization.

In my Prostate Health Diet book I talk about personal testing. It is a way to know for sure whether any food or supplement is good for you or not. It is quick and easy to do. I swear by it. You will then have your answer for the garlic. There is no food or supplement that is good for everyone no matter how great the "science" or profile of that input is. We are all so different. To me personal testing is a lifesaver.
Prostatic Artery Embolization can certainly help. If you get a 20-30% improvement in your symptoms would you do it? You may get more, you may not. The odds are strongly in your favor of it being successful. I don't think any procedure can revert you to a 20 year old. But I did it and it improved my sensitivity reactions. I can eat more foods than before, and am glad I did it.
