Starting at age 40, the levels of the by-product prolactin of
testosterone of men increases, stimulating the production of the enzyme
5-alpha reductase that causes the conversion of testosterone to
gihydro-testosterones DHT thus triggering prostate enlargement and other
problems. Therefore in order to prevent the symptoms of enlarged
prostate is to naturally impend the conversion of testosterone to DHT.
Besides aging there are many other causes of enlarged prostate and some
of them might result in prostate cancer. In this article, we will
discuss how to use herbs to prevent and treat an enlarged prostate as
well as prostate cancer.
1. Saw palmetto

number one choice when it comes to prostate health. Recent study of
American Society for Cell Biology shows that saw palmetto inhibited
prostate cancer cell growth in the test tube. It has been used for a
long time as an herb to treat an enlarged prostate gland in men. It may
also be used to treat prostate cancer. This herbal remedy has no
significant side effects and only rarely causes mild stomach upset or
diarrhea.
2. American Ginseng
The roots, has been used for centuries in Asian medicine as an aphrodisiac, a tonic for well being and a curative. American
Ginseng is helpful in treating prostate problems due to low

prostate that can occur with BPH.
