Vitamin E- numerous studies indicate that Vitamin
E substantially reduces the risk of prostate cancer. A study
conducted in Finland followed 29,132 men from 1985 to 1991.
The men who took Vitamin E, (50 IU's per day) experienced
41 percent fewer deaths from prostate cancer than those not
receiving Vitamin E. (Heinonen O.P, Albanes D., Virtamo J,
Taylor P.R., Huttunen J.K., Hartman A.M., Haapakoskim J.,
Malila N., Rautalahti M., Ripatti S., Maenpaa H., Teerenhovi
L., Koss L., Virolainen M., and Edwards B.K.Prostate cancer
and supplementation with alpha-tocopherol and beta- carotene:
incidence and mortality in a controlled trial. J Natl Cancer
Inst 90: 440-446, 1998).
Magnesium - protects the heart and other vital organs
which suffer during acute infections. Magnesium is also a
critical component of maintaining a healthy urinary tract
by preventing formation of kidney stones. Several randomized
trials have established the value of magnesium supplementation
to inhibit stone formation. (Pak C.Y. Medical Prevention
of renal stone disease, Center for Mineral Metabolism and
Clinical Research, University of Texas Southwestern Medical
Center, Nephron;81 Suppl 1:60-5, 1999).
Zinc - is probably the single most important nutrient
for a healthy prostate. The normal prostate gland contains
more zinc than any other organ. Zinc supplementation has
been shown to diminish the symptoms of BPH and actually reduce
the size of the prostate. (Bush I.M., Berman E., Nourkayhan
S., et al. Zinc treatment for reduction of hyperplasia of
prostate. Fed Proc; 35(3): 361, 1976.)
Saw Palmetto - (Serenoa repens, Sabal serrulata)
has been demonstrated to have significant benefits in treating
BPH. In Europe it is used extensively in treating BPH. Clinical
studies demonstrate that 320 mg per day is an effective treatment
for symptoms of BPH. A 1998 study by Harvard researchers
found that Saw Palmetto extract was effective in the treatment
of BPH. (Wilt T.J., Ishani A., Stark, et.al. Saw Palmetto
Extracts for treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia. JAMA,
380:160-169, 1998.) Another study conducted in Germany found
that taking 160mg of Saw Palmetto twice-daily reduced night
time urination in 73% of the men tested. (Bach D., Ebeling
L. Long-term drug treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia
- results of a prospective 3-year multicultural study using
Sabal extract IDS 89. Phytomedicine, 3:105-11, 1996.) Positive
results with BPH usually take four to six weeks. Improved
prostate health requires continual use of Saw Palmetto.
Pigeum Africanum - is an evergreen tree in Africa.
Its bark has historically been used to treat urinary tract
infections. It has been used to treat BPH in Europe since
the 1980s. The results of many clinical trials demonstrate
the effectiveness of Pygeum in reducing the symptoms of BPH.
(Andro M.C. Riffaud J.P.. Pygeum africanum extract for the
treatment of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia:
a review of 25 years of published experience. Curr Ter Res,
56:796-8, 1995.)
Pumpkin Seed - (Cururbita Pepo) A clinical study
conducted in Germany in 1997 demonstrated that pumpkin seeds
are beneficial for the treatment of mild to moderate BPH
and their use seems well justified. (Blumenthal M., Busse
W.R., Goldberg A. et al. (eds). The Complete German Commission
E Monographs: Therapueutic Guide to Herbal Medicine, Boston:
Integrative Medicine Communications, 193, 1998.)
Beta Sitosterol – has long been used to treat prostate
problems in Europe. A double-blind clinical study published
in the British medical journal Lancet found that among 200
men with BPH, those given Beta-sitosterol (20mg three times
a day for six months) showed considerable improvements in
urinary functions versus those men given placeboes, who reported
no relief. (Berges R.R., Windeler J., Trampisch H.J., et
al. Randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical
trial of beta-sitosterol in patients with benign prostatic
hyperplasia. Lancet; 345:1529–32, 1995.) No significant side
effects or interactions have been reported with Beta- Sitosterol.
Lycopene - is an anti-oxidant that may lower the
risk of prostate cancer especially when combined with Vitamin
E. A study at Harvard Medical School showed a measurable
relationship between lycopene and the reduction of prostate
cancer. (Clinton SK, Emenhiser C., Schwartz S.J, Bostwick
D.G., Williams A.W., Moore B.J., Erdman J.W. Jr.,Dana-Farber
Cancer Institute, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts.
Cis-trans lycopene isomers, carotenoids, and retinol in the
human prostate. Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev;5(10): 823-833,
Oct 1996).
How Effective is the Prostate Plus Formula™?
Clinical studies have demonstrated that the ingredients
found in the Prostate Plus Formula™ cause a significant reduction
of the symptoms of BPH and may actually decrease prostate
size. No side effects were observed.
How Should I use Prostate Plus Formula™?
The suggested dose for the Prostate Plus Formula™ is 1

improved. A maintenance dosage of 2 capsules per day with
food is suggested to insure optimal prostate health.
