Enlarged Prostate (BPH): A Common Part of Aging
In addition, beta sitosterol also inhibits the enzyme aromatase, which facilitates the production of estradiol. Estradiol levels invariably increase with age. This is considered to be another important factor in the development of BPH.
At around age 25, the gland begins to grow again. This second growth phase often results, years later, in BPH.
Super Prostate - Saw Palmetto has been shown in studies of BPH to have significant benefits. It not only makes the prostate function better, there is an actual decrease in size in over 60% of patients.
Essential fatty acids (such as those found in flaxseed oil), Pumpkin Seed concentrate, Ginseng and PABA (Para-Amino-Benzoic Acid) are some of the other nutritional supplements that have been shown to be beneficial in BPH.
