To support the prostate naturally, we focus on nourishing the tissue and ensuring the “filters” of the body (the kidneys and bladder) are functioning without pressure.

1. The Pumpkin Seed Ritual
Pumpkin seeds are perhaps the most famous traditional remedy for men. They are exceptionally high in Zinc and Phytosterols.

The Ritual: Eat a small handful (about 2 tablespoons) of raw, unsalted pumpkin seeds daily.

Why it works: Zinc is highly concentrated in a healthy prostate. Providing the body with a consistent, food-based source of this mineral helps maintain the integrity of the gland.

2. The Nettle Root “Flush”
While we previously discussed Nettle for blood sugar, the root of the nettle plant is traditionally prized for its ability to support urinary flow.

The Ritual: Drink one cup of Nettle Root tea in the late afternoon.

Why it works: It acts as a gentle “toner” for the urinary tract, helping to ensure the bladder empties fully and reducing the “heaviness” often felt in the pelvic region.

3. Lycopene and Healthy Fats
Traditional wisdom has always encouraged “cooked” tomatoes for men.

The Ritual: Regularly consume tomatoes that have been simmered with Olive Oil.

Why it works: Cooking the tomatoes releases Lycopene, a powerful protector of prostate cells. Because Lycopene is fat-soluble, the Olive Oil (the same “Liquid Gold” we use in our nightly ritual) acts as the vehicle to carry it into the system.

Supporting “Flow” Through the Daily Rhythm
Prostate health is deeply connected to the overall circulation of the body. You can integrate these habits into the routine we have already built:

Morning: Warm Lemon Water to flush the kidneys and reduce the “acidic” burden on the bladder.

Mid-Day: Include Garlic in your lunch to keep the blood thin and moving through the small capillaries of the pelvic floor.

Afternoon: A handful of Pumpkin Seeds and a cup of Nettle Tea.

Evening: 15 Minutes of Grounding. Standing barefoot on the earth helps discharge the “static” and tension that often accumulates in the lower body.

Nightly: Your Spoon of Olive Oil to support the liver’s work in balancing hormones while you sleep.

A Respectful “Grandfather” Tip
In many traditions, it is recommended to avoid sitting for too long without a break. Every hour, take a moment to walk or stretch to ensure the circulation in the lower body remains active. This “movement” prevents the stagnation that traditional healers believed was the root of most prostate discomfort.

This approach honors the body’s natural mechanics without relying on complex tools
