What are the best supplements to help prevent BPH/prostate cancer?

I am interested in taking a supplement with Saw Palmetto in it and there are several. I also have BPH. I am 75 years old and pretty active. I am also on a blood thinner (Eliquis 5mg twice a day) because I have Factor V Leiden which is a clotting disorder which caused DVTs and Pulmonary Embolism. My research indicates that I should not take Saw Palmetto because it causes blood thinning. Maybe some doctor will read this and have an answer. If Saw Palmetto is a blood thinner why can't I take have the dosage of Eliquis along with Saw Palmetto and still have thin blood and hopefully help my BPH. I have tried Tamsulosin and that did nothing for me. Apparently that does not react with Eliquis. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I mean to say half the dosage

I did this so you could read the many experiences shared by members with supplements and BPH. @bcgallant, @rhpabp1, @ndclayt41 and @seniormed are a few members who shared their supplement experiences.

@brucekfelder0624, are there any that you have considered already?

I'm 81, had BPH for 20 years. Walnuts worked as well as any prescription drug I took.

Dear Members,
As per my first posting at the end of February 2025, I do take over 30 herbs daily aimed at trying to keep my condition stable since diagnosis in the summer of 2021. I am under Active Surveillance and age over 79. The herbs are said to be helpful in acting against proliferation of cancer cells. For each one chosen, I found scientific studies recommending them.
If any members are interested, I can post up a list of the ones I favour and have purchased.
Regards,
