A healthy prostate depends on Selenium consumption. Published results of scientific analysis shows that 100mcg of Selenium daily can adequately maintain the function of a man’s prostate. It appears that Selenium “seeks out” the cells of the prostate and balances oxidant/antioxidant ratios to promote sustained health of all these cells. According to the US Food and Drug Administration, as of February 21, 2003, “Selenium may reduce the risk of certain cancers. Some scientific evidence suggests that consumption of selenium may reduce the risk of certain forms of cancer” and “Selenium may produce anti-carcinogenic effects in the body. Some scientific evidence suggests that consumption of selenium may produce anti-carcinogenic effects in the body.” These statements reinforce why Selenium is of great importance for a man’s prostate.

While selenium powerfully protects the inner workings of prostate cells, their cell membranes also need defense against oxidative invasion. This is where vitamin E fits in. Recent scientific evidence illustrates the important role of vitamin E in maintaining prostate health by promoting its antioxidant effects on prostate cells.

Prostate health does not just depend on antioxidants, but also proper metabolic control of energy working efficiently within the gland. Prostate health can decrease through an early loss of a small part of regulatory control. While the regulatory process of energy is complex in any cell, the way prostate cells handle this challenge has placed zinc in a pivotal position. The necessity of zinc for prostate functionality is illustrated in recently published research. All men need zinc for adequate prostate health.
