As we know that prostatitis patients can suffer from a series of annoying symptoms. Though it has proven herbal medicine called Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill can cure it efficiently, patients should also take some natural remedies to hasten the recovery and treatment. Here are the natural remedies that can be beneficial to relieve the symptoms.
Keep a Wheat-free Diet.
Although there is no published study on the topic of wheat-free diet and prostatitis, there are anecdotal reports from men who have eliminated wheat products from their diet and who then experienced significant reduction or even elimination of prostatitis symptoms.
Avoid Injury to The Perineal Area
Activities such as riding a horse or a bicycle may cause injury or restrict blood flow to the perineal area and exacerbate symptoms.
Consume Green Tea
Catechins in green tea have strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Research indicates that these catechins can contribute to reducing infection and inflammation in prostatitis.
Choose Foods with Plant Protein
Plant protein can provide all the nutrients and health benefits needed for keeping the health of prostate. Diets rich in plant protein can reduce rates of prostate disease.
Eat More Fruits and Vegetables
Fruits and vegetables are abundant in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, polyphenols, and fiber, which can help eliminate infections and inflammations and is beneficial for overall health.

Hello JudyMayer378,
Welcome to the EmpowHER community. Thank you for sharing these suggestions for men coping with prostatitis.
For the benefit of all our readers, prostatitis is swelling and inflammation of the prostate gland, which is a walnut-sized gland located directly below the bladder in men. The prostate gland produces semen that nourishes and transports sperm.
Prostatitis often causes painful or difficult urination. Other symptoms of prostatitis include pain in the groin, pelvic area or genitals and sometimes flu-like symptoms.
Acute bacterial prostatitis is often caused by common strains of bacteria. The infection may start when bacteria carried in urine leaks into your prostate. Antibiotics are used to treat it. If bacteria aren't eliminated with antibiotics because they "hide" in the prostate, prostatitis may recur or be difficult to treat. This is called chronic bacterial prostatitis.
Bacterial infection isn't the only cause of prostatitis. Other causes can include immune system disorder, nervous system disorder, and injury to the prostate or prostate area.
In many cases of prostatitis, however, the cause is never identified.
