It’s a vital part of the male reproductive system and many men cringe  at the sound of having to get it checked. That’s right! I’m talking  about the prostate gland. The prostate is usually only a topic of discussion when prostate cancer makes its way into a  conversation, but before a man’s health gets to a life  threatening point, everyone needs to know the importance of caring for the prostate and how to do it properly. It’s a lot easier, and painless, than you may think!

Here are a few quick tips on how to care for one of your most important organs.

Exercise.

Regular exercise not only  keeps your body looking great, but it also helps to balance the hormonal  levels within the body as well as many other chemicals. Research shows  that men who participate in physical exercise reduce their risk of an  enlarged prostate by 40%! All it takes is 90 minutes of rigorous  exercise and you’re on your way to keeping your prostate healthy.

Eat clean and healthy.

It is amazing what a little change in your diet can do for your overall  health! Eating lean protein with every meal and cruciferous vegetables  such as broccoli, cauliflower or cabbage at least five times a week will  help keep the prostate healthy, as well as incorporating snacks that  contain zinc and magnesium (these chemicals are needed to create the  prostatic fluid that makes up the majority of seminal fluid).
