What can't patients with prostatitis eat?

During the treatment of prostatitis, patients should not only take their own medicines, but also know what kind of food they can eat, which is very helpful for the treatment effect. It is best for patients with prostatitis not to smoke, drink, or eat spicy food, as these things will lead to the deterioration of prostatitis, especially spicy food, which is very irritating to prostatitis.

Foods that patients with prostatitis should avoid

In addition to not smoking (if you can't quit, try to smoke less), drinking, eating spicy food (such as peppers, ginger, garlic), fried and grilled food, you should also give up roosters, cattle, sheep, dogs, donkeys, turtles, ginseng, deer antlers, turtle glue, donkey hide gelatin, longan, lychee, bamboo shoots, onions, mushrooms (including mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms and other mushrooms, mushroom foods will cause hair growth), betel nuts and all fish, freshwater and marine products, especially shrimps, crabs and other seafood. Avoid taking all Chinese medicines that replenish, hair growth, and heat.

Alcohol is a kind of drink that has the effect of dilating blood vessels. The phenomenon of "blushing after drinking" that people often see is the result of alcohol dilating blood vessels on the face. For internal organs, alcohol dilates blood vessels and causes organ congestion, and the prostate is no exception. Since some patients have a long-term drinking habit or even alcoholism, the chronic prostatitis they suffer from is not easy to cure, and even if it is cured, it is very easy to relapse.

Smoking is harmful to health, but few people know that smoking can also affect the prostate. In fact, alkaloids, tar, nitrosamines, carbon monoxide and other toxic substances in cigarettes can not only directly poison the prostate tissue, but also interfere with the nerve function that controls blood vessels, affect the blood circulation of the prostate, and aggravate the congestion of the prostate.

In addition, spicy foods, such as onions, raw garlic, chili peppers, pepper and other irritating foods can cause vasodilation and organ congestion. Some patients with chronic prostatitis have the habit of eating spicy food. They can often control themselves when the symptoms of the disease are more serious, but they will relapse when the symptoms are relieved. This is also an important reason for the prolongation and difficulty in curing prostatitis.

In short, in order to avoid long-term and repeated chronic congestion of prostate tissue, you must avoid smoking, drinking, and spicy food. Especially during the remission and recovery period of the disease, you should pay attention to perseverance, so as not to aggravate the condition due to temporary pleasure, causing the disease to be delayed and difficult to cure, and endure long-term pain.

Patients with prostatitis should strictly abide by the dietary taboos introduced in the article, so as to ensure the effectiveness of your treatment. If you usually like to smoke and drink, we recommend that you control yourself. For your own health, you should control your desires during the treatment process.
