For the first 50 years of your life your prostate health should be fine providing

Unfortunately however these protective processes can be affected by the way we live our lives and so in one way continued prostate health is dependent on a number of factors.
It is important that you try to maintain your overall health and a sensible weight because obesity is one of the leading risk factors associated with bad prostate health and in particular prostate cancer. Obesity is often caused by a bad diet i.e. one containing large amounts of saturated fat and dairy products, in combination with a general lack of exercise. These are two factors that can easily be changed so that general fitness levels remain high and prostate health is maintained.
Eating a diet high in fruit and fresh vegetables will help to keep your immune system at its peak because many common types of produce contain antioxidants which are thought to get eliminate potentially harmful free radicals from the body. Exercise strengthens the body and makes it harder for infections to take hold. Exercise does not have to involve an expensive gym; you can go for a jog or join in with an exercise video. Anything that increases your heart rate and burns excess fat will ultimately help to ensure continued prostate health.
Smoking cigarettes or any nicotine containing product can also seriously affect your
overall health and the health of your prostate gland. Nicotine is a known carcinogenic

You should also make an effort to learn the signs and symptoms commonly associated with bad prostate health such as urinary problems and penile dysfunction. By knowing what to look for you can spot potential problems before they become a nuisance and while they can still be treated with ease.

changes to the way you live your life can greatly reduce the chances of you developing
a potentially lethal prostate condition. Get regular medical check-

The first health care claim of deer velvet antler to be substantiated by scientific
evidence, in compliance with US Food and Drug Administration dietary supplement regulations,
was announced by the North American Elk Breeders Association (NAEBA) recently. Executive
Director Ben Coplan said the determination, made by two consulting firms hired by
NAEBA, Nutrinfo of Watertown, Massachusetts and Tradeworks Group, Inc. of Brattleboro,
Vermont, is a significant breakthrough for the nation's 1,400 breeders of farm-
According to Coplan, the Nutrinfo report states there is a reasonable basis to claim that velvet antler helps relieve the symptoms of arthritis. However, a disease claim may not be used for a dietary supplement in the US; therefore, the acceptable statement for product labels and advertisements of a dietary supplement would be "provides nutritional support for joint structure and function."
"This determination, by two of the leading dietary supplement firms in the world, is "just what the doctor ordered" for the members of our growing agricultural industry," Coplan said.
Many studies have shown most of the carbohydrate in antler is proteoglycan, which is a combination of protein and carbohydrate. The carbohydrate portion is primarily glycosaminoglycan, of which chondroitin sulfate is by far the predominant constituent. One study cited by the Nutrinfo report evaluated the clinical efficacy of chondroitin sulfate in knee osteoarthritis. Treatment with 3 X 400 mg doses per day for 90 days provided significant relief from symptoms as reported by patients. "We intend to research and substantiate other health benefit claims for velvet antler," Coplan said.
"We want to carefully research the potential benefits of velvet antler supplements

Deer velvet antler has been highly regarded in traditional oriental medicine for two thousand years. It is consumed regularly by people of Japan, Taiwan, Korea and Hong Kong as a highly prized medicinal drug to treat blood loss, weakness, and chronic joint pain. Scientific studies in Canada and New Zealand are now verifying the health benefits of this important supplement.
"The scientific-
The FDA in the United States regulates claims for dietary supplements through a process, which is different than for medicinal drugs; it does not "approve" dietary supplements, but allows producers to substantiate structure/function claims through critical review of scientific studies.
In North America, farmers and ranchers raise approximately 110,000 elk, the largest of the deer family. Historically, the velvet antler harvested by North American farmers has been exported to Asian countries. As the natural foods and dietary supplement market has expanded in the U.S., farmers have turned their attention to the domestic market. Association headquarters is in Platte City, Mo.Copies of the scientific report on velvet antler are available from the NAEBA office.From: North American Elk Breeders Association
