Creatine

Creatine is a body-building substance that weight lifters often use to build muscle.  Whether you are a weight lifter or not, it is worthwhile taking creatine to help your body repair itself.  Our bodies gradually wear out as we get older, and we also do not digest food as well when we get past 40.  So, it makes sense to take supplements in order to rebuild ourselves before we land up in a doctor's office.

The best creatine I have found is called N.O.-Xplode.  You can get it at GNC stores and many other places in bulk powder form.  You simply mix the flavored powder in water and drink it.  I like to add Coke to mine to make it taste even better.  In addition to building muscle, N.O.-Xplode has ingredients that enhance sexual prowess as well.  Thus, you solve two problems with one drink!  You should probably start out with a small quantity at first to be certain you do not have any adverse reactions, though.

Prostate Inflammation and Cancer

I am not a doctor, but I have read many health books and magazines. One subject that I looked at many times involved prostate problems. I am 61 years old, but I started having trouble with my prostate when I was in my early 40s. Consequently, I started trying natural solutions many years ago, and I feel great now at 61.

One product that I started taking quite a few years ago was Saw Palmetto. This is an herb that reduces prostate inflammation. The best brand I have found is Herb Pharm's alcohol liquid extract. Simply put three full droppers of Saw Palmetto every day in juice or EmergenC effervescent Vitamin C, and you will soon be feeling better unless it is a problem where you need to see a doctor. It will taste somewhat bitter, but you will get used to the taste when you experience the benefits. You can get this product from Vitacost.com on the internet.

A second great discovery in past years involved drinking tomato juice. It not only helps the prostate, but studies have shown that tomato juice prevents cancer also. You can buy 6 oz and 12 oz cans of juice at just about any grocery store. I try to drink at least one 6 oz can of tomato juice each day. In addition to helping my prostate, I also get valuable potassium from the tomato juice which is a body energizer. Then, finally, the juice reportedly helps to rebuild your liver if it is damaged.
