Dr. Dave good day! iam 75yrs.. very healthy same weight for 60yrs (150).. I eat to live NOT LIVE TO EAT!.. I WAS ALWYS about 6 on the psa chart, but in oct took a psa .. i was 10.7.. started to look to change that! saw your video on lycopene, and bought 90 tabs of 500mg.. started to take it 2 times a day.. after 3weeks (21days) checked my psa again that was in november. my psa went from 10.7to 5.7.. that was the first week of december, i only took the 500mg of lycopene, 3weeks after i took another lyocpene tab of only 40mg.. tested again.. last week of jan 2024 and my psa is now 5.4.. all functions work very well as it did as i was 30/40!!! (sex3times a week) pissing like a race horse) i want to thank you, and i have passed this info on to others!!
You said it right! I discontinue watching laborious, verbose, lengthy but useless explanations and vlogs that seem incompetent and don't present their bases, Giving mere general statements. I give comments so they can't victimize others. Then I block them.
I told my urologist that I had started taking a lycopene supplement. He just scoffed. He said Finasteride is the ONLY thing that works on prostate enlargement. So, I kept the lycopene, added pumpkin seeds and other natural supplements. I now sleep all night, do not have to run to the bathroom, and am able to empty my bladder completely. Some Dr.'s just don't want to hear it. They just want to prescribe more meds.
Very nice presentation - I am 72. Lycopene and some other supplements are certainly beneficial. My personal program to effectively manage BPH is to combine diet (low carb, no sugar), exercise, less sitting(!), stress reduction, breathing, good sleep, positive thought, and supplements. In other words treat your whole body. Our prostates are part of a whole system - the prostate is not isolated and disconnected from all our other organs. You do not wake up one morning with an enlarged prostate - the imbalances begin in your 40's. There is no magic pill or supplement. Yes, Lycopene is important, I take it. If you want to fix your prostate, work on your whole body. To work on your whole body, work on all the individual organs.
Great. You are really an angel. I am 61 and feeling BPH prob. I knew tomatos help but your detailed description gave a real depth and technics to get lycopene from tomatos. 1000 of 1000 prayers for you. May you live long. Greatest human you are. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
To everyone reading this, I sincerely pray for that whatever is causing you pain or stress will pass. May your negative thoughts, excessive worries and doubts disappear, replaced by clarity and understanding. May your life be filled with peace, tranquility and love
Thank you for your encouragement and support for all of US reading your Positive Energy. Health, Love and Happiness are my wishes foe you, this day/night and everyday.
What a feeling to get professional and detailed advice without being exposed to an empty sales spiel for drugs or supplements ! I could not believe my ears! Health, prosperity and blessings to you Dr. Clayton!
Thank you, you are the first that gave the real info, I have tried watching tons of videos about this and everyone would go on forever never telling you anything but to point to buying their snake oil! Really, thanks.
Thank you so much for your video. I'm 69 and regularly many times weekly eat raw tomatoes, sauce, and even tomatoes juice. I didn't imagine it could be so useful for my prostate.
Strawberries , Water Melons , Papayas , Red Guava , Grapefruits & Tomatoes , maybe Beetroots or Red Dragon Fruits too! ... Got It! Thank You So Much Doctors! Many Happy Good Blessings in Return to You! 🌷🌿🌎💜🕊
This video gives important info about prostate health and how foods like tomatoes can help. The science explanations are easy to understand. Eating more lycopene-rich foods is a must. Thanks for the helpful video! 😄
I love your presentation. I consume a diet not only rich in tomatoes and garlic but also rich in zinc, and I had blood test done early this summer where it determines prostate health the doctor stated that I have the prostate health of someone in their early-20's despite being 53. My PSA score was 0.2 and I owe the low score to all the tomatoes/ garlic and zinc the I consume.
A whole foods plant based diet is the way to go for optimum prostate function and overallhealthandwell-being...supplements not needed...I eat tomatoes on my diet too...
Excellent presentation. I tried the tomato sauce and it works. My PSA was 4.18, 3 wks ago and after adding Hunts garlic & herbs tomato sauce (has least amount of sugar @ 4g) to my diet twice a day in my salad and evening meal my PSA is down to 3.20 a 23% reduction with improved urine stream flow. Thank you Dr Dave
How much tomato sauce did you eat per day? This video confused me by saying 14mg/day if you want to prevent BPH, then said 500 mg/twice a day if you already have BPH, then he said just 14mg/day to get all the benefits, but then said at the end if you want all the benefits, take supplements at 500mg/twice a day
@@lilmsgs I just put maybe 2 shots on my salad and 1/2 cup on my supper meal. I would not take the supplements as Dr Greger pointed out in a video some not so good results. Food is always better and safer than a supplement or drugs. I eat a whole food plant based diet.
I rely on doctors and researchers in treating symptoms over going to my doctor who is so ready with his pen and pad and ask what pharmacy I use ! Thanks for the free information keep it coming and help those who can’t afford medications 💊
Dittos, I just experienced that at my Doctor this Wednesday 2/7/24. went for excess gas and heartburn , after I just came from Emergency room the day before though I was having heart problems, and was given this prescription for gas, pantoprazole and sent home. On researching the possible side effects, I was not willing to risk all the possible side effects . Found out after, that Licorice root was a natural remedy for this. My doctor after telling him of this about licorice root and that I did not like the possible side effects of that drug, he said there are no side effects with it and that it was good for my problem. Everyone knows all drugs have possible side effects He then , after telling I felt fine now after taking the Licorice root , wrote me a prescription for high blood pressure based on just one blood pressure reading after I had just rushed to his office and sat down being there only two minutes. I have read that blood pressure readings should never be taken that quickly. and that makes perfect sense I would imagine others have had similar things happen in the doctors office visits. I know doctors try to help .but often more than not they do not listen to their patient, at least mine does not it seems and is very quick with the pad to cover up a symptom and never address the why or cause of the problem for a possible cure and or remedy instead of a cover of the symptoms with a myriad of possible side effects.
Hi, I loved your presentation, I'm 75 yrs old and don't have any prostate issues. Here's why, I grow tomatoes every year in my greenhouse and eat tomatoes regularly and cook with them. However, my big secret is I take cannabis oil every night, just a drop, and it has THC and CBD in this strain. I sleep 7 to 8 hours every night and never get up to pee, I pee before bed and again in the morning, and I pee like a stallion. I recently had my PSA tested it was 1.4, not bad for 75 when 75 year olds are generally 5.0 PSA. hope this helps someone and of course cannabis kills cancer! More research should be done for this to help men.
Hello.Dr Dave, Will get right to it,saw your video on TH-cam regarding the prostate & LYCOPENE. Start taking 20 mg of LYCOPENE per day, now on my 30-day,the pressure on my lower abdomen has drastically reduced & my urination greatly improved. Thank you.
Thank you so much. My husband is a 76 year old with an identical twin who just had prostate surgery. My husband has not had issues but I always worry about keeping him around for a long time. He has not had issues, and the tomatoes may be why? We do love our tomato sauce and fresh tomatoes, so we do eat a lot.
lycopene from tomato pills probably best as you consume more lycopene without irritating the esophagus, Tadalafil for vaso relaxing the area, fasting from time to time
Very good information. Spend most of the year retired in Thailand & eat papaya every day. Knowing that it is possible to address these problems with natural foods is a gift. Thanks! Will look for Lycopene and give it a try.
@@troyholston375 I grow my own and fry them in butter for 10 minutes. I feed them with a proprietary tomato feed. As it’s coming into winter in England now I’ll be turning to supermarket ones. To be honest I can’t taste any difference. I just added another 15mg Lycopene yesterday to see if there is additional benefit.
I'm so glad I clicked on this channel. I'm 72 and have BPH, and take Finaseride daily. I do suffer with interupted sleep due to frequent urination during the night. My diet will change to follow your advice, starting tonight! Many thanks for your video. Very thorough and easy to understand. Tomatoes and bolognese sauce will be going on my menu! Thanks!
Brilliantly presented in a convincing, easy to follow manner. Other doctors presenting medical information on TH-cam would do well to follow your example. Everything is clearly explained, in particular the clinical trial data which you've processed and present with clarity. Full of actionable data with summary tables and links. And all presented in under 16 minutes!
I used to work at a clinic and assisted a urologist with his procedures. One day I asked him about supplements that had shown evidence in helping shrink the prostate. He suddenly looked upset, faced turned red, and tone of voice changed then he says none of those supplements work and not to believe in the studies that showed benefits of nutrition or supplements. He was a great doctor just wish he wasn't so anti nutrition/supplement as he always prescribing drugs, tests, or invasive procedures. @@drdaveclayton
This is good information. I’ve been doing the bathroom circuit at night for years. I added a variety of tomatoes to my diet and I have not had to get up and go with the same frequency. If I get up at all, it’s only about once.
05:38 Great advice. Tomato works for me. Inexpensive and readily available. Been eating food with pasta sauce and canned tomato at least once a day for the past 10 days and the immediate improvement is easily observable. YMMV.
Ever since I do that ,what I thought is for our skin , more in our skin face,now today is also for man prostate as a one of best medication is tomatoes. Wow thank your God Bless
Covering every aspect including the way tomatoes are cooked can only be praised as a brilliant video. Just got my results today and all is good 1 on the scale at 68 years. But will make sure plenty more tomatoes will be going into my diet. Thanks
There's another knowledgeable physician that says insulin and lack of insulin sensitivity is the key to prostate issues .. Curious to know what others think ! Great post !!!
Agree - insulin is a major factor - insulin is a growth hormone and a factor in prostate enlargement. Other hormones come into play as well. (Estrogen and the conversion of testosterone to DHT by the 5-a-Redactase enzyme.)
@@g-love6507 There is no 1 'best' remedy - I wish there were - I work with many. Each of us is different and has different needs. I'm 72 - I'll share what works for me in 4 domains - DIET, EXERCISE, HYDRATION and SUPPLEMENTS DIET - Listen to enough diet videos and your head will explode. My takeaway after years of experimenting. Go as low carb as you can, eat good quality protein (I eat red meat, poultry, lamb and fish). Eat only pure food - cut out all processed foods, seed oils and sugar. Wanna know what is most important? #1 DO NOT snack between meals and DO NOT eat after 7 PM and make you next meal at noon the next day - that gives you a 14-16 hour fast). #2 Take a walk or go up and down some stairs AFTER you eat a meal. Engage the large leg muscles and they will suck up the insulin. DO NOT exercise hard, just a walk is fine. 10-15 minutes. EXERCISE - Very few talk about this - regular exercise gave me the GREATEST improvement in my prostate symptoms - combined with the above diet guidance. You DO NOT have to go crazy with exercise - at 72 I walk, do some yoga, body weight exercise (squats, incline pushups, and lots of Qi Gong, all of which concentrate on leg strength and hip flexibility. DO NOT sit for more than 20 minutes without getting up and walking around the room. Sitting is a prostate killer. When you sit you fold your self in half, cutting off all the energy and blood-flow to the pelvis, PLUS you apply a lot of pressure right on the prostate. Included in my regime are daily organ massage (heart, lungs, kidneys, liver, spleen, bladder and intestines) , and tapping acupressure points. HYDRATION - Yes, you can drink too much water - be careful - but stay well hydrated. Spring water, green tea (I can only drink decaf) chamomile, and hibiscus tea are excellent. I also drink 1-2 cups of Prostate Health Tea by BRAVO TEA. AVOID dairy and alcohol. SUPPLEMENTS - My first thoughts were that there was some magic herb or supplement that would fix me. I would be willing to wager I have tried more supplements than 99% of you. YES, some help, some don't. It's very individual as each person is unique. My research and experimentation is on-going but here is my current stack - and let me remind you once more - without DIET and EXERCISE you are wasting your time and money. Some supplements will give you minor relief but you need to think long-term healthy prostate lifestyle. Here is my current stack: (some I take every day, some once or twice a week) BLADDER/PROSTATE SPECIFIC Gokshuradi Guggulu (Banyan Herbs) ChandraPrabha Vati (Harmony Nutraceuticals) Organic Genitrac (Maharishi Ayurveda) Organic Prostate Protect (Maharishi Ayurveda) Kanchanar Guggulu (Banyan Herbs) Ultra Prostate (Life Extension) Contains Saw Palmetto, Lycopene, Nettle root, Boron, Pumpkin Seed Oil, Plant sterols, etc) Used as needed Bangshil and Fortege, (Alarsin Pharm), Shilajit, and Varuna MINERALS Zinc + Copper (Jarrow Formulas) Potassium/Magnesium (Life Extension) MISCELLANEOUS HERBS THAT HELP WHOLE BODY Organic Moringa NAC Tumeric D3 Serrapeptase Berberine DIM Black Cumin Seed Oil (Life Extension) Benfotiamine (Life Extension) Final thought - if you want to fix your prostate work on your WHOLE body. To work on your whole body fix all the individual organs. Your prostate is NOT an isolated organ/gland that suddenly has a 'problem'. All your organs are intimately interconnected and need to work together. The only way to do that is with DIET, EXERCISE, HYDRATION and SUPPLEMENTS that work for you! Good luck gents.
@@g-love6507 it seems to be stopping testosterone converting into DHT using lycopene + read that also Tadalafil helps relaxing the area, seems like also turmeric and keto+ fasting could help
I learned about the benefits of Lycopene from my father, he told me to eat it because it is healthy for a man to do so, I listened to him and incorporated organic tomato juice, salsa, organic ketchup and any other tomato based products into my diet daily for prevention, as of yet , I have had no issues and I will continue doing this. Pink Grapefruit are definitely included as well.
Just in case you didn''t have a pen handy for achieving our daily 14 mg daily amount of lycopene from food (with variances): 1 can (170 grams) of tomato paste = 49 mg 1 cup of tomato sauce = 34.1 mg 100 grams of tomato paste = 28.8 mg 1 cup of tomato juice = 23.4 mg 1 medium tomato = 6 mg 1 tbsp tomato paste = 5 mg The juice sounds pretty easy, but I have found , quite often, that tomato juices contain huge amounts of salt...but that is just my personal unimportant opinion. Oh yes, so..I am a Canadian so we use both metric and imperial measures, but, for our U.S. friends, there are conversion tables readily available on the net. Wishing you all good health.
Thank You! I appreciate people, such as your good self, being active and participating on the internet to help others. You are a diamond in the internet rough.🤗
God bless you brother. This information is such a blessing to so many middle aged and elderly men who are suffering the ills of prostrate problems. Thanks a lot.
This is amazing. Turning our day to day foods and nutrition into our own medicine is what I'm most open to. Thank you so much for not trying to sell us expensive drugs and stuff of the same range. Your presentation is clear, helpful, and 100% feasible from day 1. I appreciate it. By the way, I'm a big fan of tomatoes. Thank you again.
Great post, really appreciate calm, honest, noncommercial presentation. In addition to lycopene/tomatoes I would add pumpkin seeds as a basic, delicious, inexpensive nutritious food source I've found helpful dealing with my prostate urinary problems.
So nice to see a presentation by a doctor who talks articulately and effectively without being boring. Factual data and recommended dosage with food/diet to back it all up. Thank you for the advice, Dr. Clayton, and happy to subscribe to your channel.
Wow that is fascinating what tomato puree does for the prostate, I didn't know that, thank you. I eat tomatoe puree for the potassium it contains and now I know why this 72 year old man never had prostate problems.
I am an 84-year-old male with an enlarged prostate and have had increased PSA-up to 11-but lower it and kept the prostate to under 4 using turmeric paste. However, two months after being on keto, my prostate has shrunk considerably. I did not measure that yet, but my bathroom experience is phenomenal.
@@calthomas3 Turmeric paste (also known as turmeric powder paste) is a combination of ground turmeric, oil (this could be coconut oil, ghee, or other neutral oils), water, ground black pepper, and other spices (like ground cinnamon, cardamom, and ginger) heated until melted and turned into a paste for the purpose of using it in turmeric milk, smoothies, curries, etc. Although turmeric can be effective on its own, by mixing it with other good-for-you ingredients like cinnamon and ginger we get to enhance its healing properties. With that being said, you can make this paste just by using turmeric powder, coconut oil, black pepper, and water.
@@calthomas3 The active ingredient in turmeric is curcumin. Curcumin however is generally not easily absorbed and so look for a brand that is absorbed.
Excellent video. I like that you cite your sources - acknowledging we have obligations as registered Doctors in most Nations, I do still see too many presenting content on YT et al, and offering no backing for their opinions.
Great presentation Dr. Clayton. New subscriber. My first PSA test for my BPH was 3.1, now my PSA is down to 1.6 today. I do eat a lot of water melon, and tomatoes, I did not know that Lycopene had these effects. Thanks for the great information.
Welcome to the community! I like to hear from new subscribers this is all new and helpful information for them, I aim to provide this for free. Appreciate your support.
Great practical solution to prostate health naturally. Thank you Dr. Clayton. Dr Ken Berry also pointed to high blood sugar and hyperinsulinemia as an inflammatory factor in enlarged prostate.
Thank you @Dave Clayton for sharing information about supplement that can make a great difference to those living with enlarged prostate! instead of devoting a video that is just a sales pitch... We need more human beings like yourself make this world a better place. God bless you!
You're welcome, I'm happy to hear you found it informational. Please do let me know if you found any specific tips helpful and any health improvements. Thanks for your support!
Recently I found out that I'm suffering from BPH and have to go several times to urinate at night. And all of a sudden I came across this video which is so useful and easy to DIY. I already started taking pumpkin seeds and I'll start tomato paste Or sauce from today and lll update the improvement soon
Pourquoi ne pas faire comme chez moi en France une embolisation de la prostate , technique utilisée depuis 2013 et sans séquelles après l’opération ( pas de problème d’ejaculation rétrograde ni fuite urinaire )
Dr. Clayton, 71 y/o male, diagnosed with moderately enlarged prostate, 30 gm. Been peeing 6-8x day and same nighttime. Saw your video, started 500 mg lycopene/day. 12 days later nighttime peeing shifted; down to 2x time, volume up from 2oz. to 5oz. Sense of urgency greatly decreased. My question: Any downside to staying on 500 lycopene LT? At some point I may go back to my old OTC with 14mg/day. But for now I am very happy with results and looking forward to OAB improving even more. Thanks for the great info and related studies.
Thank you very much. My Grandfather told me that the most important helper is ordinary water and of course the water inside the fruits and vegetables.Tomatoes have 94% water and cucumber has 97% water.That means every food with an content of above 90% water is successful.
I've had BPH at the age of 52, and it was life-changing, quite literally. The feeling of wanting to pee constantly stopped me from going out. I live in England, and my GP prescribed me Solifenacin and along with a reduction in sugar loaded food in my diet cured it. I agree totally with the Doctor regarding the Lycopene. Thanks very much Doctor, I wish good health to everyone, David.
I am suffering with same problem prostate enlargement since 1 yr I do walk 2 km per day for 5 days in week eat two times lemon juices 1bd and do meditation but just seen your video at Abudhabi next week going to my country India surely follow you and let you know progress Thank you bishop dr Treveli
Tomatoes for sure. Eating a teaspoon of Pumpkin seeds daily have helped me and I noticed a difference in better urinary stream. There are some videos out there on this.
In 1972 I convinced my father to eat a small handful of raw unsalted pumpkin seeds everyday. He had suffered from an enlarged prostate for several years and was getting up 4 and 5 times a night to urinate and never got a good night's sleep. My father was skeptical about the pumpkin seeds at first but after three days he slept through the night and never had any issues with his prostate for the rest of his life. He also always had pumpkin seeds in his kitchen. His doctor was shocked and told my father that his prostate size was like that of a young man's.
@@barrygray8356 - Get raw unsalted pumpkin seeds and either grind them up before eating them, or chew them up very well before swallowing them. Also, try to cut back on things you might be doing that aggravate your prostate.
I got my problem fix by drinking turmeric, and was like a miracle all what I did was get turmeric root not pils how I got riff off was by cutting 2 inch’s of turmeric root organic combine with black peppercorn about 1 tsp and a pinch of cayenne pepper and bring it to boiled about 15 minutes and drink it anytime during the day, also before going to bed, and you see how your prostate will shrinks overnight , I guarantee if you do this everyday for 1 week you will notice the difference , no need to take pills, turmeric is an anti-inflammatory and that’s is what turmeric does to bring down the inflammation , if this work please let me know ,I be happy to know other sufferers get relief like I did until today

Thank you. You were one of three video's I watched for how to help shink enlarged prostate. All three were doctors. I liked and subscribed because I learned much more from your video than the other two. Thank you for your work.
Excellent video. 1st PSA=22.5, going in a few days to get the results of the 2nd blood test/PSA level. Going to add this to my diet and see how things go. Would rather try the natural approach. Then off to another doctor for a 3rd test/MRI before making any surgical decisions. Thank you very much,
@@drdaveclayton Good morning sir! I’m can’t exactly pinpoint if an individual thing is responsible. I began a new health protocol in October of 2023 after I was told by my urologist that I needed a prostate biopsy. My PSA was 5.3, urinalysis was a little elevated at 27 then an MRI showed two lesions. My biopsy was scheduled for December of 2023. I began doing whatever I could to help myself while I waited. I began a health protocol in mid October combining information from your video, Dr. Andrew Huberman, Dr. Eric Burg and Gary Brecka. I added the supplement Lycopene to my diet, carnivore diet to reduce inflammation and keep insulin low. 5 minute Cold plunging every morning, 12 minutes of red light therapy every morning, my normal gym push/pull routine, walking 3 miles everyday, I threw out all my old vitamins and bought methylated vitamins. EMF mat and Grounding sheets for our bed. I also began several 3 day water fasts. One 3 day water fast a month. The biopsy in December came back negative in all of the 9 samples and my latest blood test results last week showed that my PSA dropped to 4.1. My urologist gave very little insight into my results and why the drop in PSA. My results were positive enough that my doctor agreed to wait another 4 months for another blood test before trying to put me on Flomax. Something or a combination of all of these things could be responsible. All I know is I feel amazing, I’ve loss 42 lbs and I’m currently the weight I was in high school over 35 years ago. I’m 56 years old and went from 247 lbs to 205 lbs in 5 months. 😊 Thank you for sharing your experience with us! 😊
Thank you Dr Dave in Turkey we have a dish called Menemen made with tomatoes and eggs a very tasty dish you can allso include green peppers to it and onions if you wish try i will eat it moore often from now on
Take Tamsulosin but my condition is relatively ok - Started taking a large Dessert Spoon of Pumpkin Seeds every day and it has DEFINITELY reduced my symptoms Will start on Lycopene ASAP !
Gracias 🙏🏼 the amount of information and the attention to detail like “if you cook tomatoes…” it goes to say how much study and research you put your hands in! ❤i will follow your advice!
Dr. Dave, I just ordered the Lycopene product that you recommended. I will take it every day and I will add some of the fruits you mentioned to my diet. Thanks.
Another supplement that can be combine with Lycopene is saw palmetto as it is another 5-alpha reductase blocker. Don't forget pumpkin seeds and zinc supplement. Finally a low carb diet to keep glucose and insuline levels down.
@@chuckm7747 I have read the same results you experienced for some people in other comment sections. Not sure why, but clearly for some saw palmetto does not work.
my PSA went from 7.6 to 4.5 after going low carb, no dairy, no sugar, no junk food and taking broccoli sprout extract. peeing normally now. no problems.
@@gabeguzman9478 taken in pill form -- recommended by Rhonda Patrick for prostate problems. i think that going from 187 to 167 pounds (5'9) and cutting out dairy and junk food is what really helped. my doctor recommended a biopsy (of course) but i asked for a 4K blood test which determines risk of prostate cancer (scale of 0-100). my score went from an 8 to 6.6, so doc says it's ok to just check the 4K every year.
Your videos are a peasure to learn from, thank you. So sequential, logical, with relevant clinical data, natural AND supplement sources, so pleasantly delivered. I especially appreciate your mention of the lipophylic nature of lycopene. God Bless you for your service! Namasthe (P. Ranganathan, PhD)

Just 15 minutes ro say eat ???????? I know not what.
I told my urologist that I had started taking a lycopene supplement. He just scoffed. He said Finasteride is the ONLY thing that works on prostate enlargement. So, I kept the lycopene, added pumpkin seeds and other natural supplements. I now sleep all night, do not have to run to the bathroom, and am able to empty my bladder completely.

Very nice presentation - I am 72. Lycopene and some other supplements are certainly beneficial. My personal program to effectively manage BPH is to combine diet (low carb, no sugar), exercise, less sitting(!), stress reduction, breathing, good sleep, positive thought, and supplements. In other words treat your whole body. Our prostates are part of a whole system - the prostate is not isolated and disconnected from all our other organs. You do not wake up one morning with an enlarged prostate - the imbalances begin in your 40's. There is no magic pill or supplement. Yes, Lycopene is important, I take it. If you want to fix your prostate, work on your whole body. To work on your whole body, work on all the individual organs.

Thanks a lot ❤❤❤
What a feeling to get professional and detailed advice without being exposed to an empty sales spiel for drugs or supplements ! I could not believe my ears! Health, prosperity and blessings to you Dr. Clayton!
This is one of the most beneficial videos on prostate health I've ever seen, thanks doctor very much
This clip is THE singular most important information I’ve ever heard. Thanks 🙏
Glad it was helpful! Thanks so much for watching. Your kind words are much appreciated.
Thank you, you are the first that gave the real info, I have tried watching tons of videos about this and everyone would go on forever never telling you anything but to point to buying their snake oil! Really, thanks.
Best analysis I have seen or heard in a long time. Your patients must be very lucky to someone like you.
Extremely informative video for people suffering from prostate enlargement who wish to shrink it without medication.
Thank you so much for your video. I'm 69 and regularly many times weekly eat raw tomatoes, sauce, and even tomatoes juice. I didn't imagine
it could be so useful for my prostate.
Strawberries , Water Melons , Papayas , Red Guava , Grapefruits & Tomatoes , maybe Beetroots or Red Dragon Fruits too! ... Got It! Thank You So Much Doctors! Many Happy Good Blessings in Return to You! 🌷🌿🌎💜🕊
Thank you very much! Appreciate the kind words.
All high in oxalates which in my case aggravated the urinary complex. Doing much better now.
Thanks a lot!
This video gives important info about prostate health and how foods like tomatoes can help. The science explanations are easy to understand. Eating more lycopene-rich foods is a must. Thanks for the helpful video! 😄
I love your presentation. I consume a diet not only rich in tomatoes and garlic but also rich in zinc, and I had blood test done early this summer where it determines prostate health the doctor stated that I have the prostate health of someone in their early-20's despite being 53. My PSA score was 0.2 and I owe the low score to all the tomatoes/ garlic and zinc the I consume.
Have you tried pumpkin seeds as well ?
There is a Dr. on TH-cam that promotes it. She is a male heath Dr.
Rachel. ……?
It has zinc copper magnesium etc
How do you consume garlic? Did you try raw or cooked.
Amazing
Wow can I also shrink my prostate with garlic?
A whole foods plant based diet is the way to go for optimum prostate function and overallhealthandwell-being...supplements not needed...I eat tomatoes on my diet too...
Best and most sincere Doctor I have seen on this soc. media. May God bless you and protect you.
Excellent presentation. I tried the tomato sauce and it works. My PSA was 4.18, 3 wks ago and after adding Hunts garlic & herbs tomato sauce (has least amount of sugar @ 4g) to my diet twice a day in my salad and evening meal my PSA is down to 3.20 a 23% reduction with improved urine stream flow. Thank you Dr Dave
Congratulations! Thanks so much for sharing.
How much tomato sauce did you eat per day? This video confused me by saying 14mg/day if you want to prevent BPH, then said 500 mg/twice a day if you already have BPH, then he said just 14mg/day to get all the benefits, but then said at the end if you want all the benefits, take supplements at 500mg/twice a day
@@lilmsgs I just put maybe 2 shots on my salad and 1/2 cup on my supper meal. I would not take the supplements as Dr Greger pointed out in a video some not so good results. Food is always better and safer than a supplement or drugs. I eat a whole food plant based diet.
@@Gary65437
Thanks, glad it worked for you
Anyone know we're the link is for the 500 mg
We need more people like you in this commercial world🙏
I rely on doctors and researchers in treating symptoms over going to my doctor who is so ready with his pen and pad and ask what pharmacy I use ! Thanks for the free information keep it coming and help those who can’t afford medications 💊
Dittos, I just experienced that at my Doctor this Wednesday 2/7/24. went for excess gas and heartburn , after I just came from Emergency room the day before though I was having heart problems, and was given this prescription for gas, pantoprazole and sent home.
On researching the possible side effects, I was not willing to risk all the possible side effects . Found out after, that Licorice root was a natural remedy for this.
My doctor after telling him of this about licorice root and that I did not like the possible side effects of that drug, he said there are no side effects with it and that it was good for my problem. Everyone knows all drugs have possible side effects
He then , after telling I felt fine now after taking the Licorice root , wrote me a prescription for high blood pressure based on just one blood pressure reading after I had just rushed to his office and sat down being there only two minutes. I have read that blood pressure readings should never be taken that quickly. and that makes perfect sense
I would imagine others have had similar things happen in the doctors office visits.
I know doctors try to help .but often more than not they do not listen to their patient, at least mine does not it seems and is very quick with the pad to cover up a symptom and never address the why or cause of the problem for a possible cure and or remedy instead of a cover of the symptoms with a myriad of possible side effects.
You're wonderful l have enjoyed your video Doc. May God bless you 🙏 ❤️ ✨️ ♥️ 💖 💕 🙏
No side effects with a natural form... BEST WAY
Hi, I loved your presentation, I'm 75 yrs old and don't have any prostate issues. Here's why, I grow tomatoes every year in my greenhouse and eat tomatoes regularly and cook with them. However, my big secret is I take cannabis oil every night, just a drop, and it has THC and CBD in this strain. I sleep 7 to 8 hours every night and never get up to pee, I pee before bed and again in the morning, and I pee like a stallion. I recently had my PSA tested it was 1.4, not bad for 75 when 75 year olds are generally 5.0 PSA. hope this helps someone and of course cannabis kills cancer! More research should be done for this to help men.
Hi where can you buy it with TBC and CBD?
From where you got it? Cbd oil?
Yes, what brand and source of Cannabis oil? There are so many different ones out there.
Dont eat raw, cook like he said
In my home state where weed is legal you can buy cbd oil at any dispensary. We have several of them in town
Hello.Dr Dave,
Will get right to it,saw your video on TH-cam regarding the prostate & LYCOPENE.
Start taking 20 mg of LYCOPENE per day, now on my 30-day,the pressure on my lower abdomen has drastically reduced & my urination greatly improved.
Thank you.
Excellent
Did you have a lot of abdominal bloating, as if you were "pregnant"? Thanks.
Thank you so much. My husband is a 76 year old with an identical twin who just had prostate surgery. My husband has not had issues but I always worry about keeping him around for a long time. He has not had issues, and the tomatoes may be why? We do love our tomato sauce and fresh tomatoes, so we do eat a lot.
lycopene from tomato pills probably best as you consume more lycopene without irritating the esophagus, Tadalafil for vaso relaxing the area, fasting from time to time
Very good information. Spend most of the year retired in Thailand & eat papaya every day. Knowing that it is possible to address these problems with natural foods is a gift. Thanks! Will look for Lycopene and give it a try.
This is the best I have heard about BPH. Thank you .
Started on 15mg of Lycopene and eating 4 medium tomatoes daily a week ago. Already my urine stream is improving. Thanks Doc.
Wow! Great feedback 👍. Keep it up!
Flomax is poison. She say you have your patients take Flomax???
SHAME ON YOU !!!!!!!!!!!
The tomatoes are just store bought and u eat them or do you cook them?
@@troyholston375 I grow my own and fry them in butter for 10 minutes. I feed them with a proprietary tomato feed. As it’s coming into winter in England now I’ll be turning to supermarket ones. To be honest I can’t taste any difference. I just added another 15mg Lycopene yesterday to see if there is additional benefit.
The video says if you cook them it boosts the potency. @@troyholston375
I'm so glad I clicked on this channel. I'm 72 and have BPH, and take Finaseride daily. I do suffer with interupted sleep due to frequent urination during the night. My diet will change to follow your advice, starting tonight! Many thanks for your video. Very thorough and easy to understand. Tomatoes and bolognese sauce will be going on my menu! Thanks!
I'm glad to hear the video was easy to understand and helping you on your health journey. Thanks for watching!
May God keep you longer because you are the answer to millions of people on the earth
BEST presentation on lycopene and BPH I ever came across!
Brilliantly presented in a convincing, easy to follow manner. Other doctors presenting medical information on TH-cam would do well to follow your example. Everything is clearly explained, in particular the clinical trial data which you've processed and present with clarity. Full of actionable data with summary tables and links. And all presented in under 16 minutes!
Sincerely appreciated 🙏
I used to work at a clinic and assisted a urologist with his procedures. One day I asked him about supplements that had shown evidence in helping shrink the prostate. He suddenly looked upset, faced turned red, and tone of voice changed then he says none of those supplements work and not to believe in the studies that showed benefits of nutrition or supplements. He was a great doctor just wish he wasn't so anti nutrition/supplement as he always prescribing drugs, tests, or invasive procedures. @@drdaveclayton
@@drdaveclayton Hello Dr. I’m sorry but I can’t find the name of the 500 mg Lycopene you said you were listing ? Thank You.
@@drdaveclayton Dr! What is your opinion on oral Castor oil?
This is good information. I’ve been doing the bathroom circuit at night for years. I added a variety of tomatoes to my diet and I have not had to get up and go with the same frequency. If I get up at all, it’s only about once.
I resorted to a bottle at the side of my bed years ago 😅
05:38 Great advice. Tomato works for me. Inexpensive and readily available. Been eating food with pasta sauce and canned tomato at least once a day for the past 10 days and the immediate improvement is easily observable. YMMV.
Congratulations! Thanks for sharing!!!
Ever since I do
that ,what I thought is for our skin , more in our skin face,now today is also for man prostate as a one of best medication is tomatoes. Wow
thank your
God Bless
I am 70 years old. Thank you very much for your video on the benefits of lycopene. ❤
Glad it was helpful!
Covering every aspect including the way tomatoes are cooked can only be praised as a brilliant video. Just got my results today and all is good 1 on the scale at 68 years. But will make sure plenty more tomatoes will be going into my diet. Thanks
Thank you!
Thanks, Doc for highlighting one of my favorite veggies as a child up to now at 51 :)
Thank you,I'm trying this,the best part is your video is free and short!
I love your honest presentation. No click bait.
There's another knowledgeable physician that says insulin and lack of insulin sensitivity is the key to prostate issues .. Curious to know what others think ! Great post !!!
Agree - insulin is a major factor - insulin is a growth hormone and a factor in prostate enlargement. Other hormones come into play as well. (Estrogen and the conversion of testosterone to DHT by the 5-a-Redactase enzyme.)
@@michaelfforte What's the best remedy to treat BPH ?
@@g-love6507 There is no 1 'best' remedy - I wish there were - I work with many. Each of us is different and has different needs.
I'm 72 - I'll share what works for me in 4 domains - DIET, EXERCISE, HYDRATION and SUPPLEMENTS
DIET - Listen to enough diet videos and your head will explode. My takeaway after years of experimenting. Go as low carb as you can, eat good quality protein (I eat red meat, poultry, lamb and fish). Eat only pure food - cut out all processed foods, seed oils and sugar. Wanna know what is most important? #1 DO NOT snack between meals and DO NOT eat after 7 PM and make you next meal at noon the next day - that gives you a 14-16 hour fast). #2 Take a walk or go up and down some stairs AFTER you eat a meal. Engage the large leg muscles and they will suck up the insulin. DO NOT exercise hard, just a walk is fine. 10-15 minutes.
EXERCISE - Very few talk about this - regular exercise gave me the GREATEST improvement in my prostate symptoms - combined with the above diet guidance. You DO NOT have to go crazy with exercise - at 72 I walk, do some yoga, body weight exercise (squats, incline pushups, and lots of Qi Gong, all of which concentrate on leg strength and hip flexibility. DO NOT sit for more than 20 minutes without getting up and walking around the room. Sitting is a prostate killer. When you sit you fold your self in half, cutting off all the energy and blood-flow to the pelvis, PLUS you apply a lot of pressure right on the prostate. Included in my regime are daily organ massage (heart, lungs, kidneys, liver, spleen, bladder and intestines) , and tapping acupressure points.
HYDRATION - Yes, you can drink too much water - be careful - but stay well hydrated. Spring water, green tea (I can only drink decaf) chamomile, and hibiscus tea are excellent. I also drink 1-2 cups of Prostate Health Tea by BRAVO TEA. AVOID dairy and alcohol.
SUPPLEMENTS - My first thoughts were that there was some magic herb or supplement that would fix me. I would be willing to wager I have tried more supplements than 99% of you. YES, some help, some don't. It's very individual as each person is unique. My research and experimentation is on-going but here is my current stack - and let me remind you once more - without DIET and EXERCISE you are wasting your time and money. Some supplements will give you minor relief but you need to think long-term healthy prostate lifestyle.
Here is my current stack: (some I take every day, some once or twice a week)
BLADDER/PROSTATE SPECIFIC
Gokshuradi Guggulu (Banyan Herbs)
ChandraPrabha Vati (Harmony Nutraceuticals)
Organic Genitrac (Maharishi Ayurveda)
Organic Prostate Protect (Maharishi Ayurveda)
Kanchanar Guggulu (Banyan Herbs)
Ultra Prostate (Life Extension) Contains Saw Palmetto, Lycopene, Nettle root, Boron, Pumpkin Seed Oil, Plant sterols, etc)
Used as needed Bangshil and Fortege, (Alarsin Pharm), Shilajit, and Varuna
MINERALS
Zinc + Copper (Jarrow Formulas)
Potassium/Magnesium (Life Extension)
MISCELLANEOUS HERBS THAT HELP WHOLE BODY
Organic Moringa
NAC
Tumeric
D3
Serrapeptase
Berberine
DIM
Black Cumin Seed Oil (Life Extension)
Benfotiamine (Life Extension)
Final thought - if you want to fix your prostate work on your WHOLE body. To work on your whole body fix all the individual organs. Your prostate is NOT an isolated organ/gland that suddenly has a 'problem'. All your organs are intimately interconnected and need to work together. The only way to do that is with DIET, EXERCISE, HYDRATION and SUPPLEMENTS that work for you! Good luck gents.
@@g-love6507 it seems to be stopping testosterone converting into DHT using lycopene + read that also Tadalafil helps relaxing the area, seems like also turmeric and keto+ fasting could help
Well that doesn't work for me because my HOMA-IR Score is excellent but I definitely have BPH.
The best video I have ever seen on this subject.
Yep, straight to the point. Excellent.
Great presentation Dr. on the Prostate Health, Lycopene and the red Fruit intake...thank you DOCTOR.
I learned about the benefits of Lycopene from my father, he told me to eat it because it is healthy for a man to do so, I listened to him and incorporated organic tomato juice, salsa, organic ketchup and any other tomato based products into my diet daily for prevention, as of yet , I have had no issues and I will continue doing this. Pink Grapefruit are definitely included as well.
Just in case you didn''t have a pen handy for achieving our daily 14 mg daily amount of lycopene from food (with variances):
1 can (170 grams) of tomato paste = 49 mg
1 cup of tomato sauce = 34.1 mg
100 grams of tomato paste = 28.8 mg
1 cup of tomato juice = 23.4 mg
1 medium tomato = 6 mg
1 tbsp tomato paste = 5 mg
The juice sounds pretty easy, but I have found , quite often, that tomato juices contain huge amounts of salt...but that is just my personal unimportant opinion. Oh yes, so..I am a Canadian so we use both metric and imperial measures, but, for our U.S. friends, there are conversion tables readily available on the net. Wishing you all good health.
Thanks Francis.
Thank You!
I appreciate people, such as your good self, being active and participating on the internet to help others.
You are a diamond in the internet rough.🤗

So kind of you Francis for doing that. 😇
Thanks! I saved a screenshot of the data.
God bless you brother.
This information is such a blessing to so many middle aged and elderly men who are suffering the ills of prostrate problems.
Thanks a lot.
A very lucid presentation. As such nobody will have any doubt as to what shd be done as quantitative data is very helpful 😊
This is amazing. Turning our day to day foods and nutrition into our own medicine is what I'm most open to. Thank you so much for not trying to sell us expensive drugs and stuff of the same range. Your presentation is clear, helpful, and 100% feasible from day 1. I appreciate it. By the way, I'm a big fan of tomatoes. Thank you again.
Great post, really appreciate calm, honest, noncommercial presentation. In addition to lycopene/tomatoes I would add pumpkin seeds as a basic, delicious, inexpensive nutritious food source I've found helpful dealing with my prostate urinary problems.
Thank you doctor your voice is very soothing and gives credibility to your program.
Thanks a million
Ecxellent presentation, and aquired a very good knowlege regarding prostate enlargement and how can it be reduced. Thank you doctor.
So nice to see a presentation by a doctor who talks articulately and effectively without being boring. Factual data and recommended dosage with food/diet to back it all up. Thank you for the advice, Dr. Clayton, and happy to subscribe to your channel.
Wow that is fascinating what tomato puree does for the prostate, I didn't know that, thank you. I eat tomatoe puree for the potassium it contains and now I know why this 72 year old man never had prostate problems.
Are you 72? No prostate issues? That’s amazing more health for you 🙏🏼☦️
I am an 84-year-old male with an enlarged prostate and have had increased PSA-up to 11-but lower it and kept the prostate to under 4 using turmeric paste. However, two months after being on keto, my prostate has shrunk considerably. I did not measure that yet, but my bathroom experience is phenomenal.
xan you tell me how mycg tumeric you use daily asnd how to make the paste?
@@calthomas3 google Turmeric Paste -Golden Milk Paste
Detailed info.Lots of vital info.Well done .
@@calthomas3 Turmeric paste (also known as turmeric powder paste) is a combination of ground turmeric, oil (this could be coconut oil, ghee, or other neutral oils), water, ground black pepper, and other spices (like ground cinnamon, cardamom, and ginger) heated until melted and turned into a paste for the purpose of using it in turmeric milk, smoothies, curries, etc.
Although turmeric can be effective on its own, by mixing it with other good-for-you ingredients like cinnamon and ginger we get to enhance its healing properties. With that being said, you can make this paste just by using turmeric powder, coconut oil, black pepper, and water.
@@calthomas3 The active ingredient in turmeric is curcumin. Curcumin however is generally not easily absorbed and so look for a brand that is absorbed.
Excellent video. I like that you cite your sources - acknowledging we have obligations as registered Doctors in most Nations, I do still see too many presenting content on YT et al, and offering no backing for their opinions.
Thank you so very much Dr 👍👍👍❤
Most welcome 😊
Thank you Dr. for a great presentation. Very educational. I'm definitely following your instructions for my own health. God bless you. ❤❤❤
Great presentation Dr. Clayton. New subscriber. My first PSA test for my BPH was 3.1, now my PSA is down to 1.6 today. I do eat a lot of water melon, and tomatoes, I did not know that Lycopene had these effects. Thanks for the great information.
Welcome to the community! I like to hear from new subscribers this is all new and helpful information for them, I aim to provide this for free. Appreciate your support.
Great practical solution to prostate health naturally. Thank you Dr. Clayton.
Dr Ken Berry also pointed to high blood sugar and hyperinsulinemia as an inflammatory factor in enlarged prostate.
Thank you @Dave Clayton for sharing information about supplement that can make a great difference to those living with enlarged prostate! instead of devoting a video that is just a sales pitch... We need more human beings like yourself make this world a better place. God bless you!

Pourquoi ne pas faire comme chez moi en France une embolisation de la prostate , technique utilisée depuis 2013 et sans séquelles après l’opération ( pas de problème d’ejaculation rétrograde ni fuite urinaire )
Dr. Clayton, 71 y/o male, diagnosed with moderately enlarged prostate, 30 gm. Been peeing 6-8x day and same nighttime. Saw your video, started 500 mg lycopene/day. 12 days later nighttime peeing shifted; down to 2x time, volume up from 2oz. to 5oz. Sense of urgency greatly decreased. My question: Any downside to staying on 500 lycopene LT? At some point I may go back to my old OTC with 14mg/day. But for now I am very happy with results and looking forward to OAB improving even more. Thanks for the great info and related studies.
What brand?
Can you please share the 500 mg lycopene brand details?

I've had BPH at the age of 52, and it was life-changing, quite literally. The feeling of wanting to pee constantly stopped me from going out.
I live in England, and my GP prescribed me Solifenacin and along with a reduction in sugar loaded food in my diet cured it.
I agree totally with the Doctor regarding the Lycopene. Thanks very much Doctor, I wish good health to everyone, David.
Excellent explanation and very concentrated on the solution. You are brilliant. Continue the good works, doctor

Tomatoes for sure. Eating a teaspoon of Pumpkin seeds daily have helped me and I noticed a difference in better urinary stream. There are some videos out there on this.
Do you have any other issues like diabetes??
Thanks Dr. Clayton, it worked I am on my second week (500mg), my prostate health improved, I am waking up one time in night instead of three.
amasiaus where did you get 500 mg lycopene? I can't find it anywhere
In 1972 I convinced my father to eat a small handful of raw unsalted pumpkin seeds everyday. He had suffered from an enlarged prostate for several years and was getting up 4 and 5 times a night to urinate and never got a good night's sleep. My father was skeptical about the pumpkin seeds at first but after three days he slept through the night and never had any issues with his prostate for the rest of his life. He also always had pumpkin seeds in his kitchen. His doctor was shocked and told my father that his prostate size was like that of a young man's.
😅yes I ordered some yesterday and love pasta sauce 😋
Right, but I also would add some olive oil just to ensure that the seeds be absorbed.
You sure about that? Think I might give it a shot
@@barrygray8356it's what he said, it's not like a medical intervention it won't kill us.😅
@@barrygray8356 - Get raw unsalted pumpkin seeds and either grind them up before eating them, or chew them up very well before swallowing them. Also, try to cut back on things you might be doing that aggravate your prostate.

Great, easy to understand tutorial. Thank you!
I got my problem fix by drinking turmeric, and was like a miracle all what I did was get turmeric root not pils how I got riff off was by cutting 2 inch’s of turmeric root organic combine with black peppercorn about 1 tsp and a pinch of cayenne pepper and bring it to boiled about 15 minutes
and drink it anytime during the day, also before going to bed, and you see how your prostate will shrinks overnight , I guarantee if you do this everyday for 1 week you will notice the difference , no need to take pills, turmeric is an anti-inflammatory and that’s is what turmeric does to bring down the inflammation , if this work please let me know ,I be happy to know other sufferers get relief like I did until today
Is this a permanent cure?

Thank you very much,
Last few blood test 25 and 23.6.
New MRI shows cancer.
I went from a PSA of 5.3 to a 4.1 in about 3 months.
Thank you doctor! 😊💪🏽
Amazing to hear! What tips did you use the most? Thanks for sharing your health journey!
@@drdaveclayton Good morning sir!
I’m can’t exactly pinpoint if an individual thing is responsible. I began a new health protocol in October of 2023 after I was told by my urologist that I needed a prostate biopsy.
My PSA was 5.3, urinalysis was a little elevated at 27 then an MRI showed two lesions.
My biopsy was scheduled for December of 2023.
I began doing whatever I could to help myself while I waited.
I began a health protocol in mid October combining information from your video, Dr. Andrew Huberman, Dr. Eric Burg and Gary Brecka.
I added the supplement Lycopene to my diet, carnivore diet to reduce inflammation and keep insulin low. 5 minute Cold plunging every morning, 12 minutes of red light therapy every morning, my normal gym push/pull routine, walking 3 miles everyday, I threw out all my old vitamins and bought methylated vitamins. EMF mat and Grounding sheets for our bed. I also began several 3 day water fasts.
One 3 day water fast a month.
The biopsy in December came back negative in all of the 9 samples and my latest blood test results last week showed that my PSA dropped to 4.1.
My urologist gave very little insight into my results and why the drop in PSA. My results were positive enough that my doctor agreed to wait another 4 months for another blood test before trying to put me on Flomax.
Something or a combination of all of these things could be responsible.
All I know is I feel amazing, I’ve loss 42 lbs and I’m currently the weight I was in high school over 35 years ago. I’m 56 years old and went from 247 lbs to 205 lbs in 5 months. 😊
Thank you for sharing your experience with us! 😊
Thank you Dr Dave in Turkey we have a dish called Menemen made with tomatoes and eggs a very tasty dish you can allso include green peppers to it and onions if you wish try i will eat it moore often from now on
I'd leave out the eggs - not good if you have prostate cancer.
Take Tamsulosin but my condition is relatively ok - Started taking a large Dessert Spoon of Pumpkin Seeds every day and it has DEFINITELY reduced my symptoms
Will start on Lycopene ASAP !
Gracias 🙏🏼 the amount of information and the attention to detail like “if you cook tomatoes…” it goes to say how much study and research you put your hands in! ❤i will follow your advice!
How come my Dr. Urologist didn't know or tell me that ?It's so easy to do ! Thanks Dr.Clayton !
Dr. Dave, I just ordered the Lycopene product that you recommended. I will take it every day and I will add some of the fruits you mentioned to my diet. Thanks.
What brand does he recommend? Can’t find on his site. Thank You.
I don’t see the product he recommended can you please tell me what it is thanks
Please where did you order it from

Very nice doctor very professional thank you for your help thank you for your information it should be more doctors like you😊😊
Another supplement that can be combine with Lycopene is saw palmetto as it is another 5-alpha reductase blocker. Don't forget pumpkin seeds and zinc supplement. Finally a low carb diet to keep glucose and insuline levels down.
Agree completely.
I tried Saw Palmetto and ny prostate got so big that I had to wait for it to go down to urinate.
@@chuckm7747 I have read the same results you experienced for some people in other comment sections. Not sure why, but clearly for some saw palmetto does not work.
i tried saw palmeto with finasteride for amonth but no progress still peeing 4 to 5times at night
@@emrolaltings1185 Try Dutasteride - it's superior to Finasteride. Also, supplement with Pygeum and Dim.
Excellent presentation straight to the point ! Thank you much appreciated
I'm so grateful to God for coming across this video. Thank you Dr 🙏. Can't wait to start treatment for my husband 💃💃💃🥰
my PSA went from 7.6 to 4.5 after going low carb, no dairy, no sugar, no junk food and taking broccoli sprout extract. peeing normally now. no problems.
Great job! Thanks for watching!
Been on carnivore 1 year next month and no relief.
Broccoli sprout extract?
@@gabeguzman9478 taken in pill form -- recommended by Rhonda Patrick for prostate problems. i think that going from 187 to 167 pounds (5'9) and cutting out dairy and junk food is what really helped.
my doctor recommended a biopsy (of course) but i asked for a 4K blood test which determines risk of prostate cancer (scale of 0-100). my score went from an 8 to 6.6, so doc says it's ok to just check the 4K every year.
What about coffee (caffeine)?
Your videos are a peasure to learn from, thank you. So sequential, logical, with relevant clinical data, natural AND supplement sources, so pleasantly delivered. I especially appreciate your mention of the lipophylic nature of lycopene. God Bless you for your service! Namasthe (P. Ranganathan, PhD)

I've been eating tomatoes every day lately, but not because I knew they helped BPH.
I'm 72 and I seem to have signs of BPH, so this is good to learn and thank you.
I pee more than I should and the flow isn't what it once was.
This is a really helpful presentation - thank you for publishing this! ❤️
