Prostate Complete - Vital Nutrition for Men
Vitabase Prostate Complete is a comprehensive, natural formula designed to support a healthy prostate and to relieve symptoms associated with BPH.
Saw Palmetto is one of the most thoroughly studied and documented natural remedies for prostate problems.
European studies since the 1960’s have shown that men taking saw palmetto experience significant improvement in urinary tract symptoms ( 28%), peak urine flow ( 24%) and overall urine flow ( 48%).
Pygeum africanum comes from central and south Africa where it has been used to treat bladder and urinary problems for centuries. The active chemical in pygeum is beta sitosterol. Research attaches many benefits to beta sitosterol including lowering cholesterol and reducing such discomforts of benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH) as frequent and painful urination.
Beta sitosterol has long been used by Europeans for prostate problems and now its popularity is growing among American men. Promising results from research are published regularly. A Lancet study found that men with BPH who were given beta sitosterol daily for six months showed significant improvement in urinary difficulties. Those given a placebo reported no relief. A 1999 review of four clinical trials involving 519 men with mild to moderate BPH found that beta sitosterol provided notable relief from urinary problems. It also increased urine flow and caused few side effects. Interestingly, benefits matched those commonly found with prescription BPH drugs.
Nettle is often combined with saw palmetto and pygeum africanum to ease BPH symptoms. German research suggests that stinging nettles’ benefit comes from reducing prostate swelling.
Cat’s claw’s active elements include alkaloids, triterpenes, phytosterols and proanthrocyanidins. Researchers have isolated unique alkaloids in cat’s claw which stimulate the immune system by increasing white blood cell activity. In addition, cat’s claw has demonstrated anti-inflammatory properties.
Mushrooms are high in zinc, which helps nourish the prostate gland.
Unlike other prostate products, Prostate Complete also includes a proprietary blend of almost 20 other natural supplements to support a healthy prostate. These ingredients act in a variety of ways. Some ingredients function as anti-inflammatories, helping to reduce swelling and inflammation. Others act to boost the immune system. Still others support bladder and kidney health.
