Ultra Natural Prostate with 5-LOXIN® and Standardized Lignans
60 softgels
Item Catalog Number: 01475

Ultra Natural Prostate Formula contains the most scientifically substantiated nutrients to help protect the prostate gland and maintain its healthy function.

Recently added to the formula are standardized lignans from flax and Norway spruce trees. These lignans convert to enterolactone in the intestine that is then absorbed into the bloodstream where it provides significant biological effects. Enterolactone has demonstrated antiestrogen and anti-DHT effects that are of particular importance for the aging prostate gland.1-3

The eight other active ingredients in Ultra Natural Prostate Formula are:

  • Saw palmetto extract. A number of normal biological events in aging men affect prostate function and structure. Saw palmetto has been shown to interfere with DHT activity in the prostate, inhibit the alpha-adrenergic receptor activity (to support normal urinary flow), and help control inflammatory actions in the prostate gland.4,5 A new DeepExtract™ extraction technology ensures the most desirable and complete bioactive profile of saw palmetto available.
  • 5-LOXIN® boswellia extract. Published studies show that normal aging and poor diet cause levels of a dangerous enzyme (5-lipoxygenase) to increase, which can affect prostate cells. 5-LOXIN® is a patented extract from the boswellia plant that has been shown to suppress 5-lipoxygenase in addition to other proinflammatory factors.6-10
  • Nettle root extract (Urtica dioica). 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.11
  • Pygeum. Normal aging results in levels of certain prostaglandins increasing in the prostate gland. Pygeum africanum extract helps suppress these prostaglandins, keeping the prostate gland placid and promoting prostate comfort.12
  • Beta-sitosterol. The most biologically active constituent of pygeum is beta-sitosterol. Beta-sitosterol from other plant sources is included in this prostate support formula.13
  • Cernitin®. This European pollen extract has been shown to relax smooth muscle tone of the urethra, counteract DHT, and help regulate inflammatory reactions.14-18
  • Boron. In addition to helping protect bones, this mineral has been shown to slow elevation of prostate-specific antigen (PSAs) — a benefit seeming to occur as a result of boron’s positive effect on the presence of protein-degrading enzymes in the prostate gland.19,20
  • Lycopene. This carotenoid associated with tomato’s red color helps maintain healthy DNA gene function in prostate cells.21-25

Ultra Natural Prostate Formula provides scientifically validated standardized plant extracts that have been shown to promote healthy prostate function. No other prostate protection formula provides such a broad array of nutrients to support the multiple factors involved in maintaining a healthy prostate gland.
