Which herbs help reduce BPH?

Many herbal remedies could have the potential to be anti-inflammatory and decrease swelling. Inflammation is the body's primary defense mechanism against infections, wounds, and other forms of harm. However, inflammation itself can be harmful in some cases. For example, many conditions can cause inflammation to remain elevated, resulting in tissue damage. Such as the benign prostate hyperplasia.

A range of antibiotic drugs exist to help control BPH. However, they often have side effects and may not always be effective.Natural compounds that are present in certain herbal remedies also have the potential to be anti-inflammatory and decrease swelling. This article will list herbal remedies can help reduce BPH (Benign Prostate Hyperplasia).

Citron is used for a variety of culinary and medicinal applications, due to its high levels of vitamin C and other powerful antioxidants. This fruit also offers high levels of dietary fiber, calcium,iron, beta-carotene, niacin, manganes, zinc, selenium, vitamin B6, and potassium, just to name a few.

The study shows that antibiotic treatment of prostatitis and BPH alone is not adequate for many men.

Citron can restore the loss of healthy bacteria in your gut microflora caused by antibiotic treatment. This would lower the risk of a bacterial infection recurrence.

The benefits of citron for treating bacterial prostatitis and BPH have been demonstrated in human clinical research.

One study looked at the effects of supplementing with citron alongside antibiotics for treating chronic bacterial prostatitis.

Citron can protect against harmful type bacteria and restore the loss of healthy-supporting bacteria lost to antibiotics treatment. This makes probiotics one of the best treatments for bacterial prostatitis.

2) Dandelion

Another supplement that can help treat chronic non-bacterial prostatitis is Dandelion. Dandelion contains chemicals that may increase urine production and decrease swelling (inflammation).Research suggests Dandelion might help to promote normal prostate cell production and size.

Ginger ,or Zingiber officinale, is a tropical plant that has long had a place in traditional medicines.

Ginger may have anti-inflammatory properties. There is evidence showing that many of ginger's constituents can limit the production of cytokines and the activity of cyclooxygenase enzymes, which promote inflammation.

Research has found that the anti-inflammatory properties of ginger could be useful in treating several conditions, including prostatitis and BPH.

4) Purslane

Purslane's medicinal use dates back at least 2,000 years. Purslane has been investigated for its pharmacological actions in neurological disorders, diabetes, cancer, ulcers, microbial infections, liver disease, and as an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory.
