Enlarged Prostate (BPH): A Common Part of Aging
Up until around the age of 40, a man's prostate tends to remain completely normal - about the size of a walnut.
As this process slowly develops, a man usually has no symptoms at all and is thus not aware of the seriousness of his condition. When the gland reaches a certain critical size, however; the symptoms then become quite obvious. Many experts believe that the increased frequency of prostate cancer is definitely related to greater incidence of BPH.
BPH (Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy), or prostate enlargement, is another increasing problem for aging men. Well over 30 million American men suffer from this problem.
According to a documented study performed by Dr. Berges in Germany, 200 men with BPH who used Beta Sitosterol showed "significant improvement in symptoms and urinary flow."
