    Some things you can take are:
    G00D quality saw palmento is good. Poor quality without (or low %) active ingredient beta
    Sitosterol you might as well be taking saw dust.
    Beta-sitosterol seems to reduce the cholesterol level in the prostate. Beta-sitosterol might also work through its anti-inflammatory activity.

    Some other things that would be helpful are zinc, you have to take copper with zinc because zinc depletes your copper. Zinc/Copper Dosage: 30 mg zinc and 2 mg copper a day. Add copper only when using zinc longer than 1 month. Be careful to not take too much of either. Follow proper dosage. Vitamin E is also good to enhance zinc

    Essential fatty acids such as Flaxseed Oil
    Dosage: 1 tbsp. (14 grams) a day.
    Can be mixed with food; take in the morning.

    Check with your doctor to make sure they can interact with your meds.


    Also cut out greasy foods
    Avoid anything with soy
    If your uric acid is high eat lots of cherries and cherry syrup, the darker the better.

    Comment on N0help4u's post
    I noticed Herbal products mentioned. Was using a herbal tea that seemed to work good no side effects but discontinue to using this Flomax with side effects!
