Green Tea*

Green Tea

Green tea has shown a number of health benefits for men with BPH looking to restore their prostate health. Green tea contains potent antioxidants, especially catechins, which have been shown to possess numerous health-promoting properties. One of the most potent catechins in green tea is epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). Overall, the catechins in green tea have demonstrated the ability to kill certain bacteria and viruses, enhance the immune system, and combat cancer. The antioxidants in green tea also appear to contribute to its ability to reduce levels of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that increases a man’s risk of developing BPH.
