Look for formulas that containo-Shu-Wu, Siberian Ginseng, Licorice Root, Saw Palmetto, Ginko Biloba, Pygeum
and potent plant-source enzymes for optimal prostate gland health.
Ho-Shou-Wu (FO-TI): Exerts a rejuvenating influence upon the endocrine glands which in
turn strengthens the body. It acts as a tonic and nutritive herb. Fo-Ti is an excellent digestive tonic and
one of the most popular herbal tonics in China among the elderly. Research on the plant shows that it lowers
blood cholesterol levels. It has been found to reduce hypertension and the incidence of coronary heart disease
among individuals prone to that condition. In a report by the American Herbal Pharmacology Delegation, Fo-Ti
was proven useful for liver and spleen weakness.
Siberian Ginseng: This herb has many uses and is in this formulation because of its positive
effects on the nervous system. It protects the nervous system from stress, promotes physical and mental efficiency,
sound metabolic function, balanced blood pressure and stabilized glucose levels. In short, Ginseng does it
all. Siberian Ginseng has also been known to increase gastrointestinal movement and tone and increase iron
metabolism.
Licorice Root: This herb is included in the formulation in order to help control any inflammation
of the prostate and the other organs. Additionally, since it modulates estrogen action, it consequentially
improves symptoms of PMS, such as depression, sugar cravings, water retention, and breast tenderness. Although
licorice acts as cortisol in controlling inflammation, it also minimizes the side effects of excess cortisol.
Other benefits of licorice include support of the liver, soothing of GI tract ulcers, and alleviation of
skin disorders, cancer sores, and other viral-induced disorders.
Saw Palmetto: This herb is valuable in feeding the reproductive organs, ovaries, prostate
and testes. Recent studies have shown that saw palmetto can help control BPH (benign prostate hyperplasia)
and frequent urination due to prostate disorders. Other applications include the control of androgens in
females, which prevents hirsutism and polycystic ovarian disorders. Saw palmetto promotes the overall health
of the reproductive system.
Gingko Biloba (leaf) Extract: This herb has only been in use since 1988. Scientific research
shows it to be another preventive medicine. It is able to work on the nerve centers, to increase brain circulation,
and to generally reactivate the well-being of the body. Testing has shown Gingko to be a remarkable inhibitor
of the lipid peroxidation of membranes (membrane penetration), and it is widely used in products to deliver
oxygen to the brain via the blood system. Studies also show it to be a longevity aid.
Pygeum (africanum): This herb has been used to support the prostate and to improve male
fertility and virility. In some studies, pygeum appears to be more effective than saw palmetto in controlling
prostate problems. However, pygeum and saw palmetto work together to provide synergistic benefits to the
reproductive organs.
Flaxseed: Flaxseed contains several lignans together with essential fatty acids. It has
been shown to have anti-cancer benefits. In addition, its anti-inflammatory action serves to control prostate
problems, to lower cholesterol, and to prevent platelet aggregation.
