How Should I use Total Prostate Health?
The suggested dose for the Total Prostate Health 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 Total Prostate Health even after the symptoms have improved.
A maintenance dosage of 2 capsules per day with food is suggested to insure
optimal prostate health.

Total Prostate Health IngredientsVitamin 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).
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).
