When men experience problems such as difficulty starting urination or frequent urination, this could be an early sign of enlarged prostate. What can you do to help yourself?
Small flowered willow herbs has been widely used by European doctors to treat enlarged prostate and prostate cancer. Both women and men can use it to treat urinary tract infections due to its cleansing and antimicrobial action.
Working as a diuretic and anti-inflammatory remedy, small flowered willow herb acts on the genitourinary system. It contains a plant sterol called, B-sitosterol. Small flowered willow works as a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor, which means it prevents testosterone from being converted to dihydrotestosterone. This is important because dihydrotestosterone is a strong, stimulating form of testosterone, which can cause prostate enlargement or cancer when it is too high.
Small flowered willow is taken as a tea throughout the day. Add one teaspoon of herb per cup of boiled water and let it steep for 10-15 mins.
