Prostate PhytoNutrition has the nutrients men need to support a healthy prostate. Many men require specific nutritional support to maintain the prostate’s vital urinary, sexual, and reproductive functions, and research repeatedly demonstrates the effectiveness of certain plant extracts that support the prostate gland. Prostate PhytoNutrition features concentrated extracts of saw palmetto and stinging nettle root with plant sterols, lycopene and essential nutrients—these provide comprehensive prostate and urinary tract support.*

Benefits
Supports urinary and prostate health*

Key Features
Contains saw palmetto, lycopene, and stinging nettle

How Does It Work?
Saw Palmetto

As an effective botanical for prostate health, saw palmetto has both a long history of use and an extensive body of research. The plant itself is a low-growing dwarf palm tree common to the southeastern region of the United States. Its health value lies in the oily compounds found in its berries. Saw palmetto has been shown to support healthy urine flow by maintaining a healthy balance of testosterone and dihydrotestosterone (DHT).*

Several rigorous clinical trials have confirmed saw palmetto's support of the prostate gland. In one study, 189 individuals were randomized to receive saw palmetto extract or watchful waiting (no supplementation). Over the course of the 24 month study, the saw palmetto group experienced up to twice the benefit for prostate health when compared to the watchful waiting group. Supplementation also led to improvements in urinary health and quality of life scores.*

Pumpkin
Cultivated in Mexico and North America since 14,000 BC, the pumpkin plant (Cucurbita pepo) provides beneficial nutrients for bladder and prostate health. Analysis of the naturally occurring compounds in pumpkin have found that it contains high levels of phytosterols, (including beta-sitosterol) as well as linoleic acid, selenium and other beneficial nutrients for bladder and prostate health.* Pumpkin seed has been most commonly studied in combination with other herbs, such as saw palmetto.

Pumpkin's mechanism of action is not completely understood. One theory is that delta-7 sterols in the fatty oils block dihydrotestosterone from androgen receptors, decreasing the exposure of prostate cells to hormonal stimulation. Research has also found that pumpkin mildly inhibits 5 alpha reductase (an enzyme which converts testosterone to dihydrotestosterone) in vivo, and supports the body's natural anti-inflammatory response.*

Pygeum
Pygeum africanum has a long history of traditional use for bladder support. Native to Africa, this evergreen shrub contains phytosterols, important plant fats and key compounds. These compounds, especially beta-sitosterol, have been used to support healthy bladder smooth muscle tissue.*
