Berries
The term “antioxidant” is a popular selling point for many companies, but have you ever wondered how they benefit you? Antioxidants play an essential part in safeguarding your body against harmful compounds that can lead to dangerous illnesses such as heart disease and certain cancers, like prostate cancer. Berries are packed full of antioxidants, and many experts recommend including a steady dose in your diet.
If you aren’t sure which berries to eat, you can start with
- Strawberries
- Blueberries
- Raspberries
- or Blackberries depending on what you like the most.
Salmon
Another food you may consider adding to your diet to help your prostate health is Salmon. Fish high in omega-3 fatty acids are linked to reducing inflammation in your body, which can contribute to developing severe conditions. Also, other fish you might consider eating more of can include sardines and trout, as they contain omega-3 fatty acids.
Nuts
If you’ve never been a big fan of including nuts as part of your snack regimen, you may want to think about doing so. Nuts contain Zinc, a vital mineral that can help your body fight disease and help regulate your testosterone levels. Consider taking nuts such as walnuts or almonds with you as you head out for the day to keep yourself from eating junk food and guard your prostate health.
