Prostate health is the #1 health issue for men of all ages. Last week I wrote an article about the prostate and some of its common issues. This week I will be highlighting the cruciferous vegetables that protect the prostate through providing powerful phytonutrients in your diet.
The best way to protect against prostate issues through nutrition is eating cruciferous vegetables. Cruciferous vegetables contain a phytonutrient (plant nutrient) called indole-3-carbinole which is changed within the liver to Diindolylmethane (DIM). These compounds assist the liver in breaking down and detoxifying estrogen, cause cancer-cell death, and protect cell DNA. I bet you didn't know that broccoli can do all of that!
My advice is: prevention is the best medicine. Begin to include some of these cruciferous vegetables into your daily diet. It may help you avoid the uncomfortable reality that prostate issues are likely headed your way.
Here's my list of the best cruciferous vegetables you can eat to protect your prostate and prevent prostate health issues:
Introducing these vegetables to your diet can be easy, especially if you know great recipes. Here's two of my favorites to get you started:
Gina has an amazing breakfast BLT salad recipe that I've tried and love, love, love. My hubs ask for this salad on a weekly basis. Gina has all the details on her blog: So...Let's Hang Out.

Colostrum. Chances are that is the first time you’ve read that word. Maybe you were intrigued by the cow and calf picture and decided to see why something called “Colostrum” warrants its own blog post. Or, maybe you read our previous post and know all about the wonders of colostrum and are thirsty for more information.
OrthoSpore Biotic and Microbiome Labs Sporebiotic are both formulas I wish I could have access to and used for my own health decades ago. The forefront of medicine and more particularly, digestive health, is in probiotics. Yes, your diet matters, but your probiotic make-up---known as your microbiome--- matters even more.
