Address Underlying Infection
Prostate Enlargement:
Here are some helpful insights (I hope helpful) on what might be happening relative to prostate problems.
Enlarged prostate might mean there is an infection in the prostate causing enlargement of the prostate, unrelated to cancer. The reports form various cancer studies would indicate that enlargement (BPH) does not mean there is there is cancer in the prostate.
There is more a likelihood that there is a yeast, bacterial or viral infection in the prostate causing the enlargement. But then the reaction upon learning of a BPH problem by typical health care providers is to get a needle biopsy (12 point biopsy) where 12 needles are shot through the rectum and into the prostate.
However, the infection rate is very high for such a procedure.
So there is a quandary about how to handle the issue. A regular medical approach would typically call for such a biopsy and also an MRI and then medication.
But for those wishing to take a more conservative approach, the postponement of the invasive procedures means one would be looking at natural means to reduced enlargement; use of beta sitosterol, saw palmetto, pumpkin seed and many other formulas might be first tried.
But the underlying problem of the possibility of a deep seated infection in the prostate will still not have been addressed. So often the anti inflammation problem will persist.
My suggestion is that any man suffering with BPH who is seeking out methods to deal with prostate enlargement not overlook the possibility of underlying infection.
There are some innovative methods of analysis available...Radio Wave Frequency techniques, Rife Technology and other possible avenues for determining if a yeast or bacteria or virus is causing the enlargement should be explored.
I'd appreciate any reader to comment on this issue of how to determine if an infection is present and how to deal with possible deep tissue infections...in this case a possible deep gland infection.
I have used colloidal silver over a long term in high quantity as well as Rife. So far in measuring inflammation, mine is much reduced. Deep bacteria infection appears to have been the cause and I think the Rife technology is the reason there is a reduction in infection and consequently a reduction in inflammation. Hence, I am becoming asymptomatic. Reduction in gland enlargement, however, can take a very long time to accomplish so patience is a virtue.
I have to avoid the known prostate inflammatory items such as coffee and chocolate.
D: It is becoming increasingly known that the regular or periodic use of Cranberry or D Mannose provides the necessary removal of pathogens in the U.T. that continually infect the prostate, resolving the issue of why so many conventional and alternative treatments weren't working.

I miss Timh. I could feel the LOVE. I recently had a thought about love. Love is power, turn it on, zzzzzzzzzzap. Wonder what life would be like if we all did that? Powered up and healing, wow !! I was thinking about my neighbor's flowers today. I think she has some chamomile . Some days I am like Alice and find myself in rabbit trails . So anyway I was wondering if I should bother to get some seeds from her as she is a seed bank. I stumbled on this link and thought I might share it for others' benefit. A seed for my future harvest. I may have forgotten to do my ADHD frequency this morning. I better go focus.

Thank you for your article. I am a master of Applied Kinseiology through expertly applied muscle testing I literally"ask" the prostate gland specific questions or "challenges" to determine its exact condition and if negative can further determine the exact "fix" which is unique and different for every prostate gland.... Please don't misunderstand muscle testing it is an art and a SKILL that takes years to master. Without proper training and most important a tremendous amount of practical clinical experience/practice. Muscle testing is USELESS. Muscle testing properly applied is the most accurate diagnostic tool on the planet.

Charity, ORH here, and we too miss Timh, because he was a friend to all. He contributed his ails to playing in a coal mine run off stream as a kid. Coal is bad news as we no longer catch fish off our Watt Bar lake dock after the Kingston, Tn ash spill 8 years ago. This calls for a charcoal story that all need to hear.
All coal and tree ash contains arsenic. In the paper industry we had coal and bark boilers. We had to deal with the fly ash and In the 80's the charcoal folks started buying our fly ash. It was loaded with arsenic. There is no way I will use charcoal pellets. I will use virgin charcoal made from wood. Arsenic will not only kill fish, it will kill you with cancer. ====ORH====

My roots are in loggers and papermills. My gr grand caused the tillamook burn and folks worked at the papermill in camas and then moved on to boeing jets. Parents ran a billiards company outside of regular jobs. Custom tips and cues. Dad owned patents and sold ideas to boeing for extra money. Both parents broken but super talented with many skills. Grands houses were on columbia river next door to the papermill. They died before my dad had kids. My brain suffered from car trauma age 4 but by the grace of God I go and nothing is impossible to recover with him. God is always working his plan and he makes a way. Coming out of the darkness into the light is the season the earth is in and it's going to get bright and beautiful beyond belief. A new time of healings and creative miracles is the wave ready to wash over the earth. Get ready to be refreshed and restored once again. Blessings to all, charity

Charity, thank you for sharing your family story. I want to comment on your affirmation of God working His plan. Nothing is impossible with God! The world is in a crazy dark place right now and yet for those who believe— there is a peace beyond understanding. God is on the move behind the scenes! We WILL see a refreshed and restored earth and I believe it will start right here in America. So many believers in Him are praying for His hand. Trust Him. Trust that He sent His Son here on earth, to not only cleanse each and everyone from this darkness but to know Him who we call God the Father. We will see many miracles of healing. Believe.

Apple Cider Vinegar for prostate issues
Had been having slow urination on and off for a few years...nothing I thought serious... and not a fan of Doctors or drugs. When things got a little more crazy...as in...slower and slower pee stream and having to get up multiple times each night...I then decided to find something natural. First eliminated Coffee and Alcohol (two cups a day and maybe a beer or two a week).
Found this awesome site and tried ACV when I felt bloated in lower abdomen. Took 2 Tbsps of ACV and within the hour noticed all the bloating was gone. I was thinking I may have had a bladder infection. Felt so much better though. So continued ACV 2 TBsp in the morning, then one after/before lunch, then one after dinner. Almost to the one month mark and things have continually improved. Only up maybe twice at night, pee stream is much stronger. Don't have the urge to pee all the time. I also gave up the little bit of sweets I was eating. I eat pretty healthy as it is...but this was an opportunity to go the distance. Also did a 3 day water fast which as seemed to increase my progress (only drank ACV or water...make sure you get some salt too.)
Bottom line....ACV seems to have been the catalyst for cleaning out...possibly bad bacteria/fungi/candida...but cleaning up my diet, especially sugars, is key in my view. Experiment always.
Apple Cider Vinegar
Apple Cider Vinegar remedy for BPH, prostatitis or enlarged prostate symptoms:
I hadn't heard of using Apple Cider Vinegar before reading it here and I'm so thankful! Thank you to everyone that posted about it!
After taking 2 tablespoons of organic ACV in about a 1/4 cup of water with a little agave nectar (you could use honey or a little sugar) every morning before eating anything, I've noticed a huge difference! It's so much easier to start and the flow is much much better! Yeah it doesn't taste all that great but the benefits are totally worth it!!
Just to test things out, I stopped taking the ACV for 1 day about 4 days after starting to use it and all the bad symptoms came back. Once I resumed my morning regiment, it all turned around again! This stuff really does work, for me anyway, and I encourage anyone else to give it a try...it couldn't hurt.
Everybody's different of course so if it doesn't work for you right away, I'd suggest giving it a try for at least a week. Apparently there are a bunch of other health benefits from taking ACV that I've read; lowing blood pressure, weight loss, better food digestion and more efficient mineral absorption, to name a few.
Cheers!

I swear I started organic Apple Cider Vinegar a week ago for weight loss. I am surprised what it has done for my prostate. No more dribble in my pants after peeing. I am actually shocked at how well it worked.
Not sure weigh loss is helped but prostate is under control for sure. I am 48.

I have been using ACV now for two weeks and taking a cap full (tablespoon) to 2oz of water three times a day. Morning, Noon and before bed. I have to say after ready this and looking back...it's help me not pee as much at night, no dribble afterwards either as well as not starting and stopping. I was actually just taking it to cleanse or detox my body plus try to raise my PH because I was told it does that too.
Apple Cider Vinegar
Have taken 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar in glass of hot water for the last 3 mornings upon waking.
I am 74 and have an enlarged prostate. Dr has had me on doxazosin to relax prostate and bladder muscle. That works well but made me weary, weak, sleepy and dropped my blood pressure down to 90/60.Then he had me cut dose back to 1/2 pill (2.5 mg) and added finasteride to shrink prostate by stopping production of dihydrotestosterone. But that hormone is what makes a male horny. While on it I had nil libido, which did not bother my wife, but I hated it. Have stopped taking both for a week now.
Apple cider vinegar last 3 mornings, seems to work for me. Only had one pee upon rising and another at 1100 after drinking tea and decaff coffee. And sleeping from 2200 to 0500. Used to wake up at least once, sometimes twice for a pee.Great now.
Hi Jim, I've been on Flomax for the last 4 years and for years before that I was on various generic tamsulosins. Flomax works best for me.
However, I have tried various 'cures' over the years, including sawpalmetto but nothing works apart from pumpkin seeds that I blitz into a smoothie with a teaspoon of turmeric, cinnamon, maca powder and crushed linseeds. I say 'worked' but that just means I don't get up in the night like I used to.
My urologist tried me on finasteride for a year but it made no difference. I was glad to get off it. I've had all the various tests and he told me that TURP is next on the list so I told him bollox to all that, I'm not taking the knife.
Anyway, I'm happy to stay as I am on Flomax, which I take at 10pm and I get a good nights sleep. BUT, I'm still searching for the elixir that makes Flomax redundant so I bought some ACV and a kilo of borax which I've made a measured diluted drink with.
I am investigating avenues like K2 and D3 and garnicea. I'll come back on here with the results in the future.
I am 77 and everything works so fingers crossed mate.
Best,
Chris.

I have suffered from prostate problems for the last 2 years. I found that ground flax seed has helped a lot.
R: I use and promote Milled Flax Seed often and am trying to understand why MFS is moderately effective for prostate problems and never heard of this remedy prior. I can only deduce that MFS is helping prostate function indirectly by cleaning the colon thereby reducing infection from leaky colon that finds it's way into the blood, urine, and prostate, or maybe penetrate tissue directly to the prostate. We do at least now know that many cases of inflamed prostate is a result of infection.
In addition to MFS several times daily to keep my colon clean, I take softgels of Aloe Vera about once per week.

Will,
I expect you understand the significance of high prostate specific antigen. CANCER . I have felt my own gland digitally and found no bumps on it, neither did my Dr some months later. But I had a normal low psa reading. I just have frequent voiding to cope with and found last 3 days that 2 large spoons of apple cider vinegar fixed it at least for now. If you can feel a bump, pay the money and get it fixed. In the meantime go on high vitamin D. Good luck, Jim

I started using ACV and raw honey 2 weeks ago, but only because someone said that it was good for you. I never gave it a thought about how it would help me. I have been taking Flomax for about 2 years now, but today, I have not taken a Flomax for two days, and I don't need flomax now. Thanks to the ACV and Raw Local Honey.
As an added benefit, my Ohio River Valley allergies have all but gone away. Yea

No one was more sceptical than me about natural cures, but through desperation I turned to the Internet to try and find help for my prostate issues. I am very grateful to every one who posted about apple cider vinegar because to my amazement it really works. I have had troubles for nearly four years without remedy, and yet within three hours of taking the vinegar (one tablespoon in water) the discomfort I have suffered for so long started to dissipate.
Two days later I feel so much better and I would encourage anyone suffering to give it a try. I have also started taking blackstrap molasses as recomended on another part of this site. I never post on websites but feel it is so important for sufferers to give it a try I had to help spread the word. Best wishes to everyone looking for help.

Bragg's (Paul Bragg) is the founder of ACV and its benefits. It has the Mother in it, this is the most important ingredient in ACV, also organic is best. His books the Miracle of Fasting and Apple Cider Vinegar - The Miracle Health System helped me recover from Cancer, Heart Attack and premature aging. His books are amazing. Paul died Surf boarding accident in Hawaii in his 90's. He was diagnosed with TB at 14 y/o and survived. He opened the First Health Food Store in North America. I talked with Paul's daughter in the mid 90's, she was running the business then.

I have found that BRAGG's ACV has the highest content of the Mother. It is grown and bottled in Cali. Paul Bragg died in his 90's due to an accident while surfing in Hawaii. His surf board hit him in the back of his neck and he subsequently died.
Patricia his daughter runs the company now. Must-read books by Paul Bragg are "Apple Cider Vinegar" The Miracle Health System and "The Miracle of Fasting" Bragg's Complete Life Extension System. Cleansing is the secret to life without disease. All disease stems from toxicity in the bowel and organs.
The Prostate accumulates toxins from the body, its job is to cleanse. It's our job to help cleanse the Prostate as it collects and stores toxins from our system. So many environmental toxins enter our body through inhalation and in-gestation. Cleansing techniques are the most effective way to heal and promote well being.
Fasting is referenced in the Bible, King James Versions, Paul references Biblical verses in all his books to his remedies. He is a Miracle man, Diagnosed with TB in his early teens and cured by a Swedish Dr. in Switzerland using the Sun and UVB rays, and went on to compete in the world Olympics. Back in the day, TB was a Death Wish.

I had both the acid reflux and the slow urine stream and getting up two and three times a night to urinate. I started on raw and organic apple cider vinegar; two teaspoons in 8 oz. of tea or water first thing in the morning on an empty stomach and after 2 weeks I am much improved. In hot tea add raw honey as well. I am able to empty my bladder better and now get up once during the night. Urine stream is also better. I take the Apple Cider Vinegar "cocktail" every morning and so far great results. Take at least 1 hour before meals.They do recommend not taking over two tablespoons per day.

To me you are unclear whether you took 2 teaspoons or 2 tablespoons. If you read this & remember the dose you took ... which was it, please? And, how are things going since your last post (11 yrs ago)? (I don't understand the point of using raw anything if you're going to add it to something hot before ingesting it.)

The poster states they took 2 TEAspoons. You misinterpreted. The poster points out it is recommended to take no more then two TABLEspoons, indicating they take a recommended amount.
Apple cider vinegar contains the active principle malic acid which is unaffected by the heat.
It may be ascertained therefore that substances other than live probiotics were responsible for the benefit. Good catch.
Apple Cider Vinegar
ACV works really well :) I use 1 or 1 and half tablespoons of ACV in a glass of juice and take that once or twice a day.
I started taking ACV for my prostate issues and found great relief using this. ACV is the best remedy I have found to date. No more pain when urinating. No more pain after sex. Wonderful! Sometimes the pain was really really bad, sometimes I would have erections that would not go away, and were not sexual at all..
Wonder of wonders, after taking ACV I soon noticed my mild reflux was gone.. and also my rhinitis had further improved. I use the No Starch Diet (quite similar to Paleo Diet actually) for my messed up immune system and that had already greatly improved my rhinitis (and other inflammatory immune problem too).
== Other things I tried ==
* Molasses - actually seemed to work reasonably well, but the ACV remedy is better!
* Top quality Multivitamin & Mineral & Antioxidant supplement (Pharmaceutical grade). ACV is still better hehe
* Making the renal system alkaline helped. That includes things like Cream of Tartar mixed with juice. Baking soda and water on an empty tummy. Lots of fruit & veg.. etc.
== Things that make it worse ==
** Chocolate! (due to sugar content perhaps?)
** Sugar
** Coffee
* Excessive protein consumption - makes the urine too acidic and my prostate doesn't like it.

I was just wondering since both blackstrap molasses and ACV both seem to work if anyone has tried combining the two. It seems to me that the blackstrap mixed with the ACV would lessen the taste of the ACV and just wondering if anyone has tried this.
(Emerald City, The Land Of Oz)

Regarding -- combining ACV & molasses --
Yes you can use them together. Tastes even worst in my opinion hehe. I quite like the taste of ACV with fruit juice. And molasses is tolerable when with strong tea.
-- reducing ACV acidity --
I have issues with the strong acidity of ACV when increasing the dose.. it hurts my teeth. So I started adding baking soda and surprisingly it still worked just as well!! I thought maybe it would stop working but all was good :-). Problem with baking soda is it has too much sodium and gives me a headache, so now I am experimenting with calcium carbonate (lime mineral) which is easily found in most (but maybe not all) calcium supplements.

Please do not try White Vinegar, it's great to clean with, it is not good to take. You can buy organic unfiltered ACV at any health store. At first it is very harsh to take straight up, you can take it with 8 oz. or so of warm water with honey, the honey will dissolve. Start with a tablespoon and work your way up to 2 tablespoons a day of acv.

Years ago, a good friend of mine, C.W. Smith, who also happened to be an amazing doctor of chiropractic, recommended the following combination to me: equal parts organic apple cider vinegar, raw honey, and black strap molasses. You mix it together in a glass jar and then you cover the top with cheese-cloth secured into place with a rubber band. You mix a tablespoon each day with hot water and drink it like a tea. The longer it sits (preferably a year or more), the better it is for you. The reasoning behind that is that the longer it sits the more the vinegar helps to pre-digest the other ingredients. It is good for your blood, and so much more.

Apple Cider Vinegar
Hi there I'm 23 years old , I have been tested for everything regarding my penis and prostate but nothing came up. So the doctor says that I have inflamed prostate and prescribed soem useless medication, what I'm suffering for is that after urinating I drip urine and I have to clean up for a while till I can get dressed again, I also pee a lot and during peeing the stream finishes and then it starts again. Not to mention the times I wake up from my sleep to pee. I took a look at peoples remedies and I found one regarding Apple Cider Vinegar and natural saw palmetto. I was just wondering would this really work and if it does can you pretty please tell me what amount I should use. I'm also suffering from esophagel reflux.

I have similar problems, and can say for certain that this is a pelvic floor dysfunction. I've been working out in the gym for many years and still doing it and this contributed to my pelvic muscle problems.
Of course you don't have to work out to have such problems as well, it's connected to improper sitting poses, general anxiety, that goes along with unconscious muscle clenching. You won't find that information available on regular sites. I came a long way to find, been to many doctors took some medicine and nothing worked, finally discovered this site:
Hard flaccid is a condition of turtling and hardening of ones penis. Fortunately I don't have this, but it is caused by unbalanced and stressed pelvic floor, and general muscle tightness. The same things that cause chronic prostatitis, erection problems and many, many more, even testicular torsion and infertility (testosterone production can be greatly reduced if tight muscles interfere with normal testicular and prostate function) varicoceles (psoas muscle is too tight or overgrown, as some on that site proved and cured their varicocele by physical therapy besides being convinced by doctors to undergo surgery)
People are generally unaware of problems caused by tight muscles, many peoples lives would be much happier if that knowledge was more widespread.
The way to recovery is long and you have to be very dedicated, but it is possible to recover for virtually everyone, I am doing it for two months and already see big improvement in my prostate problems, even my cold hands and feet became warmer recently (impaired muscle function can suppress circulation in the whole body as many experienced on that site)
So firstly I strongly recommend anybody with similar issues read this site thoroughly, take some notes, appoint a meeting to the pelvic floor therapist, start the trigger point release at home, go to yoga classes (it is extremely beneficial in such case especially bikram yoga as muscles loosen up in heat) and work on your body position during sitting, walking etc (yes even our walking patterns can influence pelvic floor) and what is the most important spread the information so more people could heal.

Hey Mustapha!
I have limited knowlege about your condition, however I have studied up some because my dog has BPH.
You may wish to consider stinging nettle; it is proven effective for treating prostatic issues, moreso than saw palmetto. So - FYI/FWIW {for your information/for what its worth}:

My dog has bph (Benign prostatic hyperplasia) which sucks as I get no sleep til around 4am letting him out to not pee. He has to be on antibiotics but was still struggling so in between opening the door I spend my nights educating myself. I am definately buying avc today and adding it to his nettle Rosemary roubious palmetto berry tea which I grow and harvest myself. It's delicious!! I add it to 1c of his food n add I tsp citrocel twice a day. He's adamant that I'm on top of it so usually make it before I pass out lol. It's been hard in that he can't communicate to me what helps and I don't have that body part so hearing from you "penis people" (and I say that lovingly lol) has been so helpful!
Give the nettle tea a try it really seems to help him so much. U can order it online and I highly recommend dried saw palmetto berries that I add while boiling the water. Steep for at least 15-20mins but I let it sit overnight. The nettles help with infection and packed with nutrients! Good luck fellas as I'm a true believer in "its your penis use it when you want to" kinda hard when it's broken.

First - a painless way to take the ACV is in V8 juice. A shot in a glass is actually a nice drink. Having a friend who had prostate issues, I sent him a link to this page and just to try, used ACV in pea soup last night and ---- strange, no urgent need to hit the bathroom this morning. That, following nighly trips there in the last week. Just maybe I'll get around to follow-up posts.
Apple Cider Vinegar
I ended up on your site looking for a cure for shingles. I found it and it involved among other things Apple cider vinegar to be ingested and a mix of Aloe vera and crushed cayenne pepper rubbed on the redness which almost instantly brought the blisters to a head. I was done with shingles in about a week. Because of all the testimonials here, I decided to keep on taking the ACV orally 3 times a day. In liquid form or capsules. I realized that my flow of urine got stronger and started to last much longer. I had prostate problems for a few years and I was taking every day some very expensive herbal tea that was working somewhat. I decided to stop the herbal tea and stay on the ACV only. I now pee like a 15 years old and I'm not on any medication. ACV also cured me of my insomnia! Thank you Earth Clinic for such a great site.

Apple Cider Vinegar
I recently tried apple cider vinegar and it both helped my erection and helped me stay hard as well as urinary troubles in the morning slow stream of urine to normal. If you could please confirm this with other testamonials would appreciate it. thanks

I have noticed a lot of people aking what dosage of ACV to take.
I use 2 tbls in a glass and add 1/4 teaspoon to it and let it fizz off or rest for 5 minutes or so. This takes the acidic bite out of it. I then add 1/4 glass of flavoured water to get it down with because the taste of the ACV makes me heave. I do this every morning after breakfast except Sat. and Sun. Those two days are under Ted's recomendation to let the body return to its normal state.
Now this has worked well for me for burning hip pain and depression but did nothing for my prostrate infection. A strong anti-biotic knocked that out. I hope this helps .

In regards to all of the gentlemen who are suffering from prostate issues I'm aware the earth clinic is great for using natural cures. For those men and wives who care to do a little research, look into google , check out Roger Mason and his research regarding natural Prostate cures. His research found that conclusively the only people who have prostate issues are men who's testosterone levels are consistently low. It is the testosterone that controls estrogens that run amuk creating the prostate to grow.
If I am not mistaken, Testosterone is measured as "free" levels. One of the problems of aging is the body becomes unable to properly use the Testosterone that's available in the blood and is destroyed by Albumin. The Prostate Gland accumulates Testosterone metabolites and thus becomes inflamed. The herbs Stinging Nettles and Avena Sativa help the body use Testosterone.
For T boosting, in addition to the above herbs, I also take either DHEA or Pregnenalone, Maca, Tribulus terrestris. Horny Goat Weed and Mucuna prurienes is also recommended for T boosting.
