Prostate Care MEN'S HEALTH Saw Palmetto w/Nettle Root
Description
Benefits
- 318 mg saw palmetto and 480 mg pumpkin seed oil both provide nutritional support for normal prostate function*
Testosterone converts to estrogen at higher rates as men age. Prostate cells are sensitive to estrogen’s growth stimulatory effects. Nettle root helps support prostate cells against the excess estrogen levels
Newly published studies reveal solid evidence that men over age 50 should add a nettle root extract to the new saw palmetto extract for prevention purposes. As men age, their ratio of estrogen to testosterone increases, thus making it important to inhibit the effects of estrogens, sex hormone binding globulin and dihydrotestosterone. While saw palmetto protects against prostate enlargement caused by dihydrotestosterone, nettle root is required to inhibit the proliferation of prostate cells in response to estrogen and sex hormone binding globulin.
Most men over age 60 are likely to develop prostate enlargement. Preventing the development of benign prostate disease is a critical component to maintaining an enjoyable quality of life. There is also evidence that the steps taken to prevent benign prostate hyperplasia (enlarged prostate gland) may also reduce the risk of contracting prostate cancer.
