Dear nancy,
We have, over the immediately past 15 years, conducted numerous evaluations of various alternative protocols.....designed to address Benign Hypertropic Prostatitus (BHP), with varying degrees of success. Our most effective results came from a combination of protocols, including
granulated kelp (2 tablespoons per day), powdered beta-sitosterol (1 teaspoon daily, divided into two doses), high-intensity LED light array (using 3500 MCD BULBS...in a 10 to 15 bulb assembly)
placed in direct contact with skin surface, immediately adjacent to the prostate (twice daily for 30 minute intervals).....plus 2000 mg of MAGNESIUM daily (divided into 2 doses). Almost any form of magnesium proved useful, but Magnesium Chloride demonstrated to be somewhat superior to other forms. However, Magnesium oxide, the gluconate form and others, all, were of significant value.
One of the profound effects of Magnesium (in BHP cases) is its ability to relax the smooth muscle tissue.....thus greatly reducing the discomfort of urine evacuation.....together with a concomitant reduction of urgency. In fact, magnesium proved to be the MOST effective of all protocols in reducing Urgency.
Our results in employing DMSO as a topical address for BHP have demonstrated to be somewhat less than satisfactory. Although spectacularly effective in addressing bladder insults of all types (especially of a chronic infectious nature) DMSO has not proven very effective against embedded insults of the prostate proper. One of the reasons the prostate is so difficult to treat for chronic infections is the nature of the tissue itself. The prostate tissue is similar to a sponge in character and the challenge is similar to attempting to remove sand from a sponge by wringing/squeezing it out physically------a difficult chore at best.
Any protocol, including hot sitz-baths, which improves the circulation to the prostate area, has been found to be beneficial and comforting to the sufferer.....from among our volunteer population. The LED protocol has the additional advantage over sitz-bath through being much less
demanding in application, and can be executed either sitting-up or laying in bed.....plus
effecting a very high concentration of increased circulation in a much more confined target area.
While Saw Palmetto (either extract or tea from berries) does, indeed, aid BHP, it is simply not as powerful or as rapid in effect as is beta-sitosterol. In fact, it was the serendipitous discovery that beta-sitosterol was the most effective ingredient in saw palmetto, which prompted the search for other, more concentrated sources of that substance.
I hope these comments prove to be of value to list members.
Sincerely, Brooks Bradley.
