Reduce or avoid foods that harm the prostate. You may be surprised at how many common foods irritate the prostate and can contribute to a rise in PSA levels and an enlarged prostate. Here are some of the foods and beverages that fall into this category: 1  Foods that contain acrylamide, such as French fries and potato chips (the two biggest offenders) and doughnuts. 2  Foods rich in saturated fats. 3  Excess alcohol. 4  Nonfermented soy products such as tofu and edamame, which can raise estrogen levels. 5  Microwave popcorn.
Usually, small birds like lovebirds, canaries, and parakeets live six years or older, cockatiels about 12 years, and amazons, as well as macaws and cockatoos, 40 years or more.
Macaws are large birds with long tails often measuring 36+ inches from head to tail. Commonly kept species include the Blue and Gold, Green Wing, Scarlet, Military and Hyacinth macaws. Their average lifespan is often misquoted as 100 years, but in actuality 50 years is the normal lifespan for these magnificent birds.
