One of the most embarrassing urological conditions a man can have aside from erectile dysfunction is incontinence. If you have been experiencing incontinence, you shouldn’t just assume that it’s a natural result of your age. In some cases, incontinence is driven by a person’s diet. Here’s what you should know about how your diet could be contributing to incontinence. 

How Your Diet Can Affect Incontinence

The debate on whether the consumption of water, caffeine, or alcohol can cause incontinence is a rather intense one. Some men experience fewer problems with incontinence after reducing their intake of caffeine while others do not. That said, there are certain foods that have been known to cause incontinence.

According to the National Association for Continence, acidic foods like citrus fruits may contribute to incontinence. Spicy foods, tomatoes, and corn syrup have also been shown to cause incontinence. 

Although it’s possible for certain foods to cause incontinence, you should always consult with a urologist and get tested to make sure it’s not being caused by a more serious issue like having an enlarged prostate or a problem in your urinary tract. 

In any case, when you have incontinence, it’s important to eat plenty of leafy greens, and vegetables. Depending on the exact cause and severity of the condition, incontinence can be treated through a combination of physical therapy, medication, and muscle training. In some cases, surgery may be required to fully correct the condition.
