Key takeaways

Looking after your prostate doesn't have to be complicated. A few simple daily habits can help you feel more comfortable, sleep better and stay on top of your health as you get older.

Morning

Hydrate early

Get most of your water in the morning and early afternoon so you're not drinking heavily at night. Take your daily supplement with your first glass.

Prostate-friendly breakfast

An omelette with tomatoes and spinach, oatmeal with berries and walnuts, or yogurt with pumpkin seeds is a great start.

During the day

Stay active

Walk, bike, golf or swim for at least 30 minutes most days to support weight, circulation and comfort.

Pelvic floor exercises

Kegels strengthen the muscles that control urination. Squeeze the muscles you'd use to stop the flow of urine, hold for three to five seconds, relax and repeat ten times, a few times a day.

Don't hold it

Use the restroom when you need to and take your time.

Evening

Cut back on fluids

Limit drinks for two hours before bed, and avoid coffee, soda and alcohol in the evening.

Wind down

Keep a steady bedtime and use the bathroom just before you go to sleep.
