This oil shrinks Enlarged Prostate

A common cooking oil completely shrinks an enlarged prostate, according to a new study in the Euro-Mediterranean Journal for Environmental Integration.

The researchers tested a local pumpkin seed variety (Cucurbita pepo L., var. Bejaoui) to see if its oil could shrink the prostate.

They used 48 rats, divided into six groups:

1. Control (no treatment)

2. Castrated (to mimic low testosterone)

3. Testosterone-induced prostate enlargement

4. Testosterone + finasteride

5. Testosterone + low-dose pumpkin seed oil

6. Testosterone + high-dose pumpkin seed oil

After 21 days of testosterone injections, researchers examined the rats’ blood and prostate tissue.

What they found was remarkable:

• Pumpkin seed oil reduced prostate size compared to untreated rats

• Inflammation markers (like TNF-alpha and IL-6) improved significantly

• Antioxidant activity increased—based on MDA, CAT, SOD, GPx, PST, and POD levels

• Blood fat and protein levels returned to healthier ranges

• Liver and kidney damage was reduced

• Prostate tissues looked healthier under the microscope, with less abnormal growth

The higher the pumpkin seed oil dose, the better the results.

This was an animal study, but the findings are promising, especially for men looking to support prostate health without pharmaceuticals.

Try pumpkin seeds or pumpkin seed oil.

They’re widely available and safe. For supplements, choose cold-pressed, organic pumpkin seed oil.

But pumpkin seeds are not the only option.
