ZINC ASPARTATE helps the prostate in a variety of ways. The prostate contains
a higher concentration of zinc than any other organ in the body. The hormone
prolactin increases testosterone absorption by the prostate. Excess testosterone
stimulation is known to increase the risk of prostate disorders (benign and
malignant). Zinc inhibits the enzyme 5-alpha reductase. This enzyme converts
testosterone to dihydrotestosterone, the form of testosterone thought to be
most responsible for benign proliferative changes to the prostate gland. Zinc
supplementation has been shown to reduce the size and symptoms of benign
prostate disorders in a majority of patients.*
SAW PALMETTO EXTRACT (SERENOA REPENS) is indicated for prostate complaints and
irritable bladder. The free fatty acids, sitosterols, flavonoids, and polysaccharides
in saw palmetto have been shown to have positive benefits on nocturia, flow rate,
and residual volume.*
NETTLE LEAF POWDER (URTICA DIOICA) has been shown to inhibit the enzyme
aromatase, which converts testosterone to estradiol. Aromatase and the resulting
higher levels of estradiol have been implicated in the cause (pathogenesis) of
benign prostatic hyperplasia.*
PYGEUM AFRICANUM EXTRACT improved urinary flow, voided urine volume, and
reduced residual urinary volume in test subjects. Nightly urinary frequency
(nocturia) and daytime frequency were also reduced.*
PUMPKIN SEED & BETA SITOSTEROL Pumpkin seed oil is a rich source of beta sitosterol.
Administration of pumpkin seed extract/oils or the purified beta sitosterol may
be beneficial for prostate health. Overall prostate scores, urine flow, and prostate
volume improved during therapy in some studies.*
