Abstract:
Chronic prostatitis is a very common and poorly understood condition with significant impact on quality of life. The etiology of prostatitis can be multifactorial and can present with a variety of symptoms. Given the lack of proven efficacy of conventional therapies such as antibiotics, many patients have turned to phytotherapy and other alternative treatments. This review will cover the alternative therapies commonly used in prostatitis with an emphasis on those with published data. These treatments include phytotherapy (quercetin, bee pollen) and physical therapy. Complementary therapies have shown the potential to help men with prostatitis, particularly when allopathic therapies have failed.
Note: Quercetin (Vitamin C’s cousin) seems to help hugely.
Lots to read here:
Quercetin is an antiinflammitory/antitumor flavonoid, hence the reason why it helps bring an inflammation problem down. Another good thing to take is a non-dairy source of Acidophilus and a good B-complex and a good Zinc supp. around 80mg a day, but do not exceed 100mg. The best B-complex will probably be a "Stress"B-complex. Other good things would include: Saw Palmetto, Pumpkin Seed Oil, and a Raw Glandular. PM me if ya need more info, I got tons of it

Sounds a lot like the Prosta-Q product I saw on that site. I am thinking of trying that. All my tests have come up negative for an infection, but the doctors are still saying that’s what it is. They are just guessing and throwing pills at me, hoping it goes away. This is scary reading that site…it seems like some people never got over this.
