What is BPH?
Benign (nonmalignant) enlargement of the prostate gland is medically known as
BPH or benign prostatic hyperplasia. Almost 30 million American men suffer from
this condition and over 50% of men will have BPH during their lifetime. After
the age of 80, almost every man has it.
What are the symptoms of BPH?
The most common symptoms include frequent urination, getting up to urinate at
night, incomplete emptying of the bladder, waiting a while before the flow of
urine begins; urgency, which is the inability to "hold it" and even
incontinence. The symptoms of BPH and prostate cancer can be similar. Anyone
suffering from any of the described symptoms should see a physician for a proper
diagnosis.
Why does prostate increase in size?
The prostate gland undergoes the process of enlargement because of certain hormonal
changes and some nutritional deficiencies.
What is the treatment of BPH?
The main treatment in the past has been a surgical procedure called a TURP (trans-urethral
resection of the prostate) which removes some of the prostate tissue to increase
the opening for the flow of urine. Medications, such as Hytrin, Cardura ,and
Proscar improve some of the symptoms as well. Unfortunately, neither the surgery
nor the medications really decrease the size of the prostate.
How Effective is the Super Prostate Formula?
Clinical studies have demonstrated that the ingredients found in the Super
Prostate Formula cause a significant reduction of the symptoms of BPH,
and may actually decrease prostate size. No adverse side effects were observed.
How Should I use Super Prostate Formula?
The suggested dose for the Super Prostate Formula is 1 capsule
after each meal. Some men experience noticeable improvement in just 1 or 2 months,
while others need to take it for 6 or months - remember in some cases an enlarged
prostate has been developing over many years. It is best to continue to take
the Super Prostate Formula even after the symptoms have improved.
A maintenance dosage of 2 capsules per day with food is suggested to insure
optimal prostate health.

Ingredients:
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).
