How can prostate conditions be prevented in men?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Peter Pan: Aging is the prostate's greatest enemy. About half of men by age 50 will start experiencing some prostate-related symptoms. By age 90 more than 90 % will have prostate problems of some kind. However, high fiber, low red meat, low fat diet and moderate regular exercise may help with prostate health overall if we can't live in neverland.
