Natural Cures for Enlarged Prostate

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.

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.

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.

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.

I have slept better the last two days with three doses of the ACV. So glad I found this.Thanks to all.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

Apple cider vinager has reduced my acid reflux and the positive proof of killing all of the bacteria in my bladder came from a lab test when I thought I had a prostate infection. The doctor looked at the results and said my urine was so remarkably clean, (without any bacteria) she did not know what I had. Therefore, she sent to urology and it was discovered I had too much acid in my system. Much of it was too much coffee, orange juice and grape juice plus ACV. When cutting back on too much juice, my prostate symtoms were gone in a few days, but the proof of " no bacteria in my bladder" was reason enough to let others know the benefits of AVC. All bladders have ... cells floating around and that causes bladder and kidney infections. AVC can prevent that. DJS
