Thank you very much for this very informative posting. I do have one
question. You are recommending taking large dosages of Magnesium. It
was my understanding that magnesium and calcium should be taken
together, that taking one without the other can lead to some
imbalances. Do you have any information on this? Should calcium not be
taken as well to maintain a balance, or would calcium reduce the
effectiveness of the protocol?
Thanks,
Marshall

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.
