Prostate Health - Drink Red Wine and Green Tea

Green tea leaves steeping in an uncovered zhon...Image via Wikipedia
Jackpot! Two of my favorite beverages.  During the weekday, I drink a cup or two of green tea at work. Every evening, I try to have a glass or two of red wine with dinner.

I 'm hoping the prostate health benefit is real, as reported by this FASEB Journal article, Polyphenols in red wine and green tea halt prostate cancer growth.  The Journal reports:

"In what could lead to a major advance in the treatment of prostate cancer, scientists now know exactly why polyphenols in red wine and green tea inhibit cancer growth. This new discovery explains how antioxidants in red wine and green tea produce a combined effect to disrupt an important cell signaling pathway necessary for prostate cancer growth. This finding is important because it may lead to the development of drugs that could stop or slow cancer progression, or improve current treatments."

Men, tell your doctor about your erectile dysfunction (ED). Your ED might be a warning that you might have other potentially serious health conditions. Read this article for in-depth details, "The ED Conversation Dilemma: Forty Percent Of Men With ED Don't Talk To Their Doctor, Survey Finds." It's important for men to discuss ED with a health professional for two reasons. First, to find out if there are other serious medical conditions that require treatment or attention. Second, erectile dysfuntion (ED) can be treated with medications such as Cialis (tadalafil). If you think you're reading about yourself, I recommend you strongly consider sharing your ED with your doctor.
