Another friend asked me for a suggestion to help his diagnosed enlarged prostate/ BPH which he was already taking Flomax for, but was not really helping as he said he was getting up, 4 to 5 times per night to go to the bathroom and was not able to fully empty his bladder during the day and was having frequent urination urgency.
He told me he had had BPH for many years. I suggested he consider melatonin gel (MG) to see if it would help him. He tried the MG applied to his perineum, but unlike my other friend who had only had BPH for several months before applying MG and finding relief in just two days, after a week of twice a day applications, he told me he noticed no benefit at all. I suggested he continue using it since his BPH had been diagnosed years ago.
Two weeks later he told me that he was starting to see noticeable improvement with trips to the bathroom at night declining form 4 to 5 per night down to 2 to 3 per night. He also reported reduced urination urgency and improved urine flow with less trips to the bathroom during the day. Overall he was happy and said he is going to continue with the twice daily applications of MG to his perineum to see if he can get even further improvement with more time and usage of MG.
I will update this thread when he gives me an update. Here is a link to how to make melatonin gel :
I have been taking a tablespoon of molasses in the morning and right before I go to bed for the last month. I am sleeping 4 to 5 hours straight with a much stronger stream. Might even help you in the ED department:)
First you have to know the cause of an enlarged Prostate. In my case, it was due to calcium oxalate. One needs calcium for strong bones up to about age 30 or so. After that, it is a hindrance. I had complete urinary blockage; and when the catheter was removed after a week, the small kidney stones came out for days.
So in your diet you have to look for low oxalate alternatives. Avoid all dairy that contains cholesterol and calcium oxalates. Avoid all saturated fats, salt, sugar, alcohol, caffeine and even tap water with high mineral content. Avoid when you can, but otherwise reduce the intake and use substitutes. Various foods and drinks have labels showing levels for calcium and cholesterol content. Not only can these bad substances have a worsening affect on the Prostate, but they are also bad for the heart.
Each day I take zinc, magnesium, and Ibuprofen. I like coffee and drink about 1 -- 2 mugs in the morning. The rest of the day is decaffeinated. Another thing to consider is that cattle are fed antibiotics and growth hormones. This also contributes to an enlarged prostate and possible breast cancer in women. Avoid fast food when possible because it is heavily salted.
It could be that I took boron for a month and increased from 3mgs to 9mgs. From what I've read if you take it for too long or too much and don't cycle it 2wks on and 1 wk off it will do the opposite by increasing estridol and decreasing testosterone.
Also, the one I took is a complex containing (boron citrate/aspartate/glycinate @3mg capsule. It also has 25mg of vitamin B2 to help absorb it.
Thanks for reading my post and I hope it helps I know the symptoms of this condition are no fun. Also the bee products did give me some relief before I started the boron. But it really improved after I started it.

Yes, I meant 50 mg chelated zinc tablets as 15 mg is unlikely to be high enough to be therapeutic. Also, I would increase the copper from 1 x 2mg to 2 or 3 times the 2mg chelated copper tablet to better align with the 50 mg chelated zinc. When I originally wrote this I was thinking 15 mg so I only said 1 x 2mg chelated zinc. It should have been 2 or 3 for a better ratio. You can if you want go with the RDA 15mg chelated zinc if you want, in that case use only 1 x 2mg chelated copper tablet.

4 months ago, I sadly discovered that I have an enlarged prostate. Usual symptoms as everyone else. Up all night peeing. Weak pee stream. I've managed to reduce it probably by 80% in 4 months.
This is how I did it. Firstly, Like everyone else, I did my research. On my condition and on medications, supplements and surgeries. Once I gained all knowledge, I started treating it with supplements.
This consisted of....... Saw palmetto (2 pills 450mg each. Taken morning, noon and night. Curcumin 3 times a day. Lycopene 10mg twice a day..morning and night (with food) L-glutamine powder....one scoop added to a glass of water. Essential Zinc...one pill a day. Apple cider vinegar...two tablespoons per glass of water. ....3 times a day.
This has literally shrunk my prostate. My pee stream is a lot better (85% better) I wake up once now during the night instead of 5 times. My urethra could still be more dilated and am thinking of taking Nitric Oxide for that.
Hope this helps you guys as I know from experience that this condition has also a negative psychological affect.

Update: June 6, 2020 at 21:22:
So sorry, I forgot another important thing that I do for enlarged prostate.
During my research, I discovered a company called “Butt Candy”. Yes, you read that right… lol Basically, they make suppositories that are made with supplements that you put up your butt. They were pretty expensive and I thought, I could make my own. And I did. I thought I should attack my prostate issues from both ends, orally and anally. This is how I do it. Very simple and easy. I use coconut oil (organic only). I use 3 heap tablespoons of coconut oil in a coffee cup. Add the same supplements that I mentioned in my earlier post. All the supplements are either in powder form in capsules or oils, so easy as you just open the capsules and pour into the coconut oil. I also add (which you don't have to do) black seed oil (about 30 drops) And the oil from Lycopene soft gel supplement. I put in the microwave for about 12 seconds till it melts the coconut oil and you mix everything together then I pour it into silicone Ice tray. Not the conventional square shape, but a shape that will be easy to slide up your Butt canal. Mine looks like a kit-Kat stick shape I've tray. Perfect size and shape to slide in. After pouring your solution into the ice tray, place in freezer to set and before bed, slide one in. I believe in combating the problem from both ends. The results have been amazing.
Trust me, watermelon does a great job. If you can finish a complete ball of watermelon you will be highly relieved. It suppresses BPH though you may have to repeat it when next you feel symptoms. In my own case, it suppressed it for about 5 weeks after eating a ball in two days.
Right now I'm taking about 10-12 drops of super saturated potassium iodide (SSKI) per day. That's about 500-600mg potassium iodide (KI), or about 375-450mg of iodine. I mix it in with my drink - orange mango flavour seems to mask the iodine fairly well.
BUT Lugol's Iodine is much stronger mg for mg and I don't actually like the effect it has on me: headaches, sores in my mouth, mouth/throat infections (because it kills off friendlier flora). That's why I use potassium iodide (KI).
-- How much iodine per drop? --
SSKI :
1g KI per ml of SSKI
1 drop SSKI = about 50mg KI
1 drop SSKI = 37.5 Iodine (75% x KI)
"Calculating Number of MG's of Iodine and Iodide per Drop of Lugol's Solution: LUGOL'S 2%: Each VERTICAL "metric" drop (= 1/20ml) is approximately1.0 mg of iodine and 2.0 mg of potassium iodide. The Iodide portion of Potassium Iodide is about 75% so that is 1.5 mg. Therefore the total Iodine plus Iodide is 1.0 + 1.5 = 2.5 mg and 2 drops is about 5.0 mg's of iodine/iodide (2.0 mg iodine, 3.0 mg iodide). "
Hi Lou, to answer your question: I personally would take about 20 drops to get 50mg of iodine/iodide (20mg iodine, 30mg iodide). Initially I would need to start smaller, with about 5 drops and work up.
If you get any of the issues I mentioned (due to its oxidating action) then take Vit C as an antioxidant.
I had started mixing my Vit C with my Lugol's to prevent issues and that worked like a charm. Doing this turns the iodine to iodide, but also makes it less potent. In the end I just switched to potassium iodide. Many people seem to have no issues with Lugol's, I guess I'm qute sensitive.

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
House of herbs blackstrap molasses: I mix a tablespoon per each cup of my coffee I drink two cups a day...coffee aggravates the prostate, the less the better...
Try changing to more of an alkaline diet- eat more fruit and veggies, less fat and animal products. Beans and nuts are good plant protein! It's also called A whole food, plant based diet and it cures many health problems! Good luck!

My husband had problems with urination in the night. I had heard that an enlarged prostrate had to do with a zinc deficiency. I had read that pumpkin seeds had a lot of zinc in them, so I bought a bag of pumpkin seeds. He's been eating them every evening for a snack and he said that after some weeks, he no longer has problems in the night.
Can't make money on pharmaceuticals if they propose natural remedies. And when they help you achieve good health, you won't need doctors as much. Follow the money.
Randall, you'll end up with tarps, if you don't start taking what works. 800 mg of beta sitosterol you can get it from amazon, new you vitamins makes a good one, 3 bottles of 90 caps each for $29
I have a self diagnosed prostatitis problem. I decided to try applying lugol's iodine topically to the general area around the prostate. I determined this was a good way to try and kill the unwanted bacteria. I have been doing this for about a month I think. It seems to have given me some relief. I apply it in the morning and at night. It can dry out the skin and burn some. But its good effects out weigh the bad in my opinion.
Doctor David Brownstein has written several books concerning the thyroid and iodine you might research iodine to see what you are getting into. Because if your thyroid is not healthy or have hashimottos disease it could affect you. The iodine can irritate the thyroid if you have hashimottos disease. I believe a lot of people have a iodine deficiency but it can be tricky to try and use iodine.
Look up Lugols iodine on amazon and read the reviews some are pretty remarkable. Swansons website sells it along with amazon.

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.

The wonderful Theresa from Minneapolis, MN has been helping pet owners and their beloved pets around the world on Earth Clinic since 2013.
About Theresa
Theresa from Minneapolis was born and raised in the inner city, always wishing she had been raised on a farm.
Her love for creatures great and small began at an early age, starting with caterpillars - which continues to this day, along with an interest in all insects and 'creepy crawlies'.
Theresa's interest in pet health started with a bird keeping hobby at age 14, where she learned from another hobbyist that the simple addition of Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) in a bird's drinking water kept fungal infections away; she was able to share this with her avian vet who in turn prescribed it to her own clients; Theresa was surprised to learn that she could teach her vet a thing or two. This important lesson - that each of us can be a teacher - was a turning point for Theresa, and fueled her quest for the knowledge held in lore, and remedies passed by word of mouth. That quest for knowledge continues to this day, as new and old remedies alike are explored. She may not have experience with a particular issue, but she will research it to the best of her ability and share what she finds freely, in the hopes that you can heal or improve your pet's health.
-----------------------------
How To Show Theresa Your Appreciation
If you would like to thank Theresa for her helpful posts, she asks if you would please consider making a donation to one of her favorite local rescue organizations, or by making a donation to help the genius contributor, Ted from Bangkok, recover from his stroke.
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}:
I have a suggestion about his urine flow issue; that even though the prostrate had decreased in size, still slight flow. Maybe, just maybe, he has a low grade urinary tract infection. Easy to treat. Get some high pph colloidal silver and let him take a tablespoon on empty stomach every morning for a week. If the flow starts returning then it probably was a virus. By the way, that too would help with his prostate. And it could be that the return of enlarged prostate was due to the infection, if indeed that was his problem (the possible urinary viral tract infection I mean).
Very topical for me, this idea of using Willow Tea. I just read about this. The trusted source said it was truly miraculous. I will try some for sure. The supplement that has worked best for my prostate issue is beta sitosterol.
Hi Marlane. Glad this is working for your husband. I would like to add that maybe some elevation of the bed might help as well (for the getting up in the middle of the night several times a night to go to bathroom) You can accomplish this by placing say maybe two bricks or a concrete block, really anything (books, boards, etc. )to raise the head board of the bed 3 to 6 inches off the floor. This is a type of incline bed therapy and has been used by some to reduce the amount going to urinate through out the night.
Posted by Marlane Ellis (Geelong, Victoria - Australia) on 11/09/2010
Hi anon thanks for your post. My husband is completely well now he sleeps through the night and has no problems at all urinating, I am convinced it was the Beta Sitosterol. His urine flow returned to normal within 48 hours of taking it for the first time. Although the other nutrients like the Q10 etc. Must have helped. Anyway thank you for your interest, I just hope we never have to go through that again. If we do at least I know how to deal with it. Cheers and take care. Marlane

I've just finished reading a report from "pepperlover" in topix forum.. who was diagnosed with prostate cancer, he didnt want it removed and started taking 600mg of cayenne over a day.. In a few days he was able to urinate freely again and.. within two weeks he could orgasm again.. When he went to the doctor for a check up a month or two later.. the test showed no signs of cancer the doctor couldnt believe it.... He got the idea from a trail on rats who were given the human prostate cancer cell... The good news seems to be that cayenne seems to be working on other types of cancer cells.

WORKED TEMPORARILY
Well I went to the doctor because the pain came back with a vengeance. I was diagnosed with prostatitis and had to take a regime of strong anti biotic for 28 days. The peroxide did work for a while but it didn't cure it. Thanks again for your site.

At 40 I starting using Saw Palmetto for BPH, benign prostatic hypertrophy (enlargement of the prostate) to control the life altering affects of not being able to urinate and feeling like you have to pee all the time. I have had genital herpes since 1983 or so. I had stress related outbreaks 1-2 times a month for 2o years. healing time about a week. I noticed, how could I not notice that I have had only 1 very small fast heeling (1day) painfree outbreak in 18 months. I take 450 mg once a day in the morning. I also have oral herpes, oh that is embarrassing to say the least. About six months ago I started using an online product from healing natural oils. www. amoils. com I would also get stress related outbreaks on my lips about once a month, with 1-2 weeks to heal. I rub the oil under my feet twice a day. I would always get an out break after being outside all day. Now I have a high stress outbreak about every 6 months, it does not turn into a blister and heals in 24 hours. No unsightly sores to embarrass me in public. I never get an outbreak after being outdoors or camping. I used saw palmetto a year before using the oil, so I know that the saw palmetto worked for me. Hope someone finds this helpful.

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.

re: How my 'hated' remedy freed me from the prostate discomfort. Hi, For the last 2 months I have been suffering from sleeplessness caused by my prostate disorder. I started reducing consumption of liquids closer to evenings; thinking I would not be going to the toilet 3 or 4 times during the night. It did not help. Recently, for 2 consecutive nights I was forced to go to the toilet 5 and 6 times. My sister reminded me of a grain used in the Afghan cuisine and as well for kidney problems. It is known in Farsi as 'Shanbalila' in Arabic al-holba'. This grain's name in English is Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum). I bought a small package of 200g. (Imported from India) in an Afghan variety store in Montreal for 2 dollars. Since my childhood' I did not like the smell of the thing and the day my mother put some of it into a sweet rice dish I refused to eat it at all and invited myself to my aunt's place to avoid being forced to eat. After my 2 troubled nights, I looked into a book of remedies published in Iran in Persian language. I found this Fenugreek recommended for my kind of problem. According to the simple instruction, I put approximately 2 teaspoons of the grain in a pot of boiling water and turned the heat off shortly and left the infusion for the evening. Before going to bed I drank a cup of the liquid and started wondering what kind of a 3rd night will I be going through. At the early hours of that night, I woke up twice for the toilet, each time after an hour of shallow sleep. Afterward I woke up around 7 in the morning without any pressing need to the toilet. Apparently the infusion took a few hours to start working. I used this remedy for 3 more days and with 2 -3 cups per day. Now, I wake up only twice in the night, if I don't drink a lot of liquids in the afternoon. Whether it cured an infection somewhere in my body or else, it did something good to me and I sleep well enough at nights now. The only aftermath of the fenugreek is an unpleasant odor (for me) in the armpits that does not go away after 2-3 showers. One has to use a strong deodorant for a few days even after the treatment. Good luck!
It says 'CORN SILK'... 'Pour 2 cups of boiling water of 1tbl corn silk let simmer for 5 min. strain and sweeten.' You can buy corn silk tea at many Asian grocers and online including Amazon. It is also beneficial for...
1. Good Source of Antioxidants
Stigma maydis is rich in phenolic compounds, especially flavonoids. Studies on the plant fiber show that it provides strong antioxidant activity by inhibiting free radical scavenging.
Animal studies show that corn silks have anti-inflammatory effects and can be used to suppress pro-inflammatory mediators. Researchers believe that the silks may be useful for the treatment of inflammatory diseases related to oxidative stress.
2. Rich in Nutrients
We know that the nutritional value of corn is impressive, but its silks are also rich in macro- and micronutrients. It contains:
proteins
carbohydrates
vitamins
calcium
potassium
magnesium
sodium salts
It also features volatile oils and steroids, including sitosterol and stigmasterol, alkaloids, and saponins.
3. Improves Cholesterol Levels
There's evidence to suggest that consuming the flavonoids in Stigma maydis can help improve cholesterol levels.
In one study, administration of flavonoids from corn silk extract resulted in significantly lowers levels of triglycerides and LDL cholesterol. There was no difference in HDL cholesterol levels, but the data shows that the silks may have potential anti-hyperlipidemic effects.
4. Reduces Blood Pressure
Although more clinical trials are needed, there's some research indicating that corn silk tea is useful for patients with hypertension. The main outcome of drinking the tea was total blood pressure lowering, but researchers note that using the tea plus antihypertensive drugs may be more effective.
5. May Reduce Blood Sugar
Studies indicate that consuming these corn threads has anti-diabetic effects, and they've been proven to improve glucose tolerance in rats. Although more research involving humans is necessary, the animal studies demonstrate corn silk's anti-diabetic benefits.
6. May Work as a Diuretic
Research suggests that corn silk soothes and relaxes the lining of the bladder and urinary tubules, so it may be helpful in reducing irritation and increasing urine secretion.
The silks have been found to have diuretic effects and urine flow increased after consumption. Because it works as a diuretic, eating this part of the corn plant can also decrease potassium levels.
Stigma maydis was also used in traditional medicine to treat urinary tract infections. Although research on this possible corn silk benefit is limited, its diuretic properties may support urinary tract health.
7. May Help Improve Depression
Although more research involving humans is needed, this is evidence involving mice suggesting that corn silk has anti-depressant activity and can improve the “excitation spirit” and lengthen activity time.
8. May Aid Weight Loss
There's evidence from studies conducted on mice to support corn silk's benefits for weight loss, but human trials are needed.
In one study, researchers concluded that corn silk extract inhibited fat accumulation and fat synthesis, while promoting the expression of genes involved in fat oxidation. The silks may reduce body fat accumulation, at least in animals.
This is strange to me, as I actually find the opposite. If I stand up to urinate, I find it easier to and at the same time seem to empty my bladder more. It's still not perfect but it's a considerable improvement I find.

Dry Figs cures Gall Stone and Prostate. If consumed 50 Gms daily, will ease passing urine in 3 days. (It's my personal observation) To clear gall stone, do this 2 months continuously. (I read this in a book and my sister got cured by this as confirmed by before/after ultrasounds) Thanks.

Jerry G,
I agree; you can cut the dosage; your 3 mg dose sounds good; and you can take all of these, and long term too, as they are all food.
Congratulations on your success in controlling your BPH and prostatitis!
I did read somewhere that Boron decreases your SHBG, and therefore increases your Free Testosterone.
> the effects of Boron on testosterone are really amazing.
> I lost 14 lbs of fat and gained muscle and feel strong.
Congrats on your success!
What you're saying is **amazing** because you have succeeded where I seemed to have failed.
I used to buy and take Boron, in 3 mg-sized capsules, I used to take one capsule a day. However, after about 90 days - or was it 180 days? - I stopped taking Boron, because I felt it wasn't doing anything for me.
May I have a couple of questions for you?
How did you do it? That positive effect on your Testosterone and Estradiol is exactly what I'm looking for. One possibility is that it worked for you was because you worked your way up to 9 mg for one month?
Another possibility is that you did cycle Boron, 2 weeks on and 1 week off... maybe that was the key in your success?
Another possibility is the product itself... did you get your Boron in those standardized 3 mg capsules that health food stores tend to sell? Or did you buy your Boron in bulk?

I used Norwegian Cod Liver Oil available from most health food stores and I used chelated 2mg copper tablets available from Swanson in the USA. But it's important that they be chelated for good absorption. Also, I would up the concentration from 1 x 2mg copper tablet to 2 or 3 copper tablets, that is 6mg Copper, for a better ratio of copper to the 50 mg chelated zinc tablet or capsule.
My Lugol's is a 2% solution. So how would you recommend doing this? Some drops in water? If so, how many drops of lugols? Also, can it be applied topically for prostate issues?
Posted by Daveman (Overland Park KS (USA)) on 07/07/2022
Hi Albert.
Prostate issues mean you're chronically deficient in vitamin D3, iodine, vitamin C, magnesium chloride and zinc. Get you some liposomal vitamin D3, some high quality nascent iodine, zinc and quercetin (to get zinc inside the cells). If you can, get these and start supplementing every single day. Besides this one guy from a group I am part of reported having reversed his dad's prostate troubles by putting him a regular lemon water enema for 3 months straight. He also has his father take Saw Palmetto every day according to him his dad is now free from that which was troubling him. Hope this helps.
Never use any Kraft products and that goes for diet also.
ACV should always have the mother enzyme and its best to look like a scooby like the kombucha's mother.
The best I've found by far is ffrom a uk seller named qualified naturalpath. He c makes his own taken from a 200y Devon orchard. Organic of course.

Allergy Research Group has a Palmetto Complex II that works extremely well to reduce inflammation and swelling of the prostate. Pure Encapsulations has a Cranberry/d-Mannose supplement that will take the bacteria out of the bladder and the urinary tract. They worked together wonderfully. If you have an acute problem, start with large/r doses especially of the d-Mannose. If you have an ongoing problem, take them both daily as maintenance.
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.
I would like to try black strap molasses for my bph [Benign prostatic hyperplasia]. I have type 2 diabetes. Can I still take 3 tbls 2-3 times a week or less than 3 tablespoons? Please advise, thank you.

Re: Blood in Semen
Large glass of Cranberry Juice every day for rest of your life. And no more prostate problem. Older people should take 2 glasses a day. 1 when you wake up and 1 when you go to sleep.
Hi, My husband is having the prostate problem for over two years now after the biopsy. He's through all doses of antibiotics and several trips to the ER and just last month he was hospitalized due to the urine infection through the catheter. He's now alpha blockers or ibubrofin to help when it's hard to urinate. He's also on the Broccoli Treatment for over 10days now (it's a 21 days treatment). I don't see much of the progress yet. So, I will try the Willow Herb Tea as you recommended. Where did you buy it?
Liquid Iodine supplementation is extremely helpful with male prostate. You will however need to take between 3-6 dropper fulls. When you squeeze the dropper, whatever fills up is considered a dropper full. Its a little confusing but a dropper full is never a FULL dropper. Please let me know how this helps. Also supplement with Selenium and get a good complete mineral supplementation. Take the Iodine daily. You should begin seeing really results in a matter of days. Life-Flo is a good brand choice for your liquid Iodine supplementation. Do not worry about taking a higher dose of Iodine, you will urinate out what your body doesn't use. Though every cell in your body needs Iodine to produce the proteins or carbohydrates in your blood, which is why higher dosage is needed to make sure the body has enough to direct it over to where you want it to go. Please let me know how this is working for you when you try it.

Hi, My husband was suffering night urination and went to the Drs. for the recomended PSA test. The Dr said they were not reliable and did not want to do one. Symptoms did not go away so started him on Saw Palmetto Berries Herbal Supplement. Within days the symptoms were gone. On the days he missed his night dose he again got up. Three months later if a dose or two is missed still no nightly getting up. I believe we got a good quality one that only has saw palmetto berries (600mg), gelatin, medium chain triglycerides, vitamin E & rosemary oil as the only ingredients. My hubby took the recomended dose of three capsules a day. We found this a cheap and effective remedy (cost us approx. USD$5 for a month, plus postage of course). Love this site, Thanks.

Enlarged Prostate: Just today realized the offical corelation with Lemon Juice and hot water reducing prostate issues. I had noticed, when I drank this beverage vs coffee, no symptoms appears. Coffee tends to aggravate pain, with lemon & hot water reducing it, with almost immediate reactions, within one hour. I had always used it for cleansing mode or health binges. I also realized I had always drank fresh grapefruit juice daily, up until these issues surfaced. Guess it is time to start keeping it around again. I had attributed to other lifesyles changes I have made in the past few years. Know I know, better. Good luck everyone in your self-doctoring. Truthfully it works better, with correct knowledge. Thank You website creator from all of use whom use you as a reference.
Vernon, I'm interested in finding out what the other ingredient is that you mixed in with the BSM for cancer that spread to the bones please. Sincerely appreciate any information or advice you can give me. Thank you!
Sincerely,

EC: That post is very old and he is unlikely to respond. Based on feedback we've received over the years, the other ingredient he is probably referring to is baking soda (aka sodium bicarbonate).
Don't understand the constipation bit. ACV is actually suggested as a quick (within 15 minutes) way to get your colon moving stuff out. For all ACV references, you must be using an unfiltered vinegar with the "mother" in it. That is all the sludge you will see at the bottom of the bottle.
My husband was extremely constipated because his bladder pushed up the intestines, thereby constipating him. The ER staff kept pushing Miralax. It contains petroleum. We are not putting that into our bodies. I made him a turkey dinner, with my mom's ethnic stuffing (lots of garlic). He doesn't have that problem now!
