Recommendation Number 7a:

Ultra Natural Prostate with 5-Loxin® and Standardized Lignans

Prostate Health Supplements For Men Only

DOSAGE: 2 softgels daily divided between morning and evening, with or without food, or as recommended by a healthcare practitioner.

Prostate Function And Prostate Health Supplements

A huge percentage of men over age 50 suffer from prostate-induced discomforts.

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 formulas are standardized lignans from flax and the 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 anti-estrogen and anti-DHT effects that are of particular importance for the aging prostate gland.28-30

Prostate Health And 5-LOXIN

The eight other active ingredients in Ultra Natural Prostate Formula:

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 and other pro-inflammatory factors.31-35
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 helps support prostate cells against excess estrogen levels.36-37
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, act as an alpha-adrenergic receptor blocker inhibitor (to support normal urinary flow), and help control inflammatory actions in the prostate gland.37,38 A new DeepExtract™ extraction technology ensures the most desirable and complete bioactive profile of saw palmetto available.
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.39
Beta-sitosterol. The most biologically active constituent of pygeum is beta-sitosterol. Beta-sitosterol from other plant sources is also included for added support.40
Cernitin®. This European pollen extract has been shown to relax smooth muscle tone of the urethra, counteract DHT, and help regulate inflammatory reactions.41-45
Boron. This mineral helps protect bones and has been shown to slow elevation of PSA, most probably by protecting against protein-degrading enzymes in the prostate gland.46-47
Lycopene. This carotenoid most commonly associated with tomato sauce helps maintain healthy DNA gene function in prostate cells.48-52
