Saw palmetto berries:  Saw palmetto berries are known to prevent the side effects caused by urinary tract problems mainly associated with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH). Saw palmetto's health benefits rely on its ability to act as an anti-inflammatory agent. One study found that taking at least 160 mg of saw palmetto per day can improve the prostate symptom scores, along with the urinary flow rate and quality of life. (Reference: Ju, X.B., et al. (2015). [Efficacy and safety of Saw Palmetto Extract Capsules in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia]. Ju, X.B., et al. Zhonghua Nan Ke Xue. 21(12):1098-101. Chinese. PMID: 26817302.)

Plant sterol complex (Beta-sitosterol): Beta-sitosterol has been shown in studies to improve urinary symptoms and flow measures.

These compounds have been shown in studies to interrupt pathways that cause inflammation and act as antioxidants to protect cells and DNA from damage caused by free radicals. With age, the prostate starts to suffer the adverse effects caused by inflammation, and these compounds are essential and essential to keep the prostate healthy and other organs. (Reference: Beaver, L., et al. (2017).

These amino acids have been shown in several studies to relieve the symptoms of an enlarged prostate. As an example, patients taking these amino acids experienced reduced nighttime urination, reduced urgency, reduced frequency, and alleviation of delayed urination. (Reference: Zaman, C., Lin, K., and O'Neill, W. (2005). The Therapeutic Effect of Amino Acids in Prostate Cancer Patients. Journal of Complementary and Integrative Medicine: Vol. 2: No. 1, Article 12)

Zinc: Zinc is a mineral that plays an essential role in cell growth and DNA repair. At the same time, zinc is mainly found in prostate tissues because it plays a vital role in the development and normal functioning of the prostate. When the prostate is functioning at normal levels, zinc is present in high levels. (Reference: Gómez, Y., Arocha, F., Espinoza, F., Fernández, D., Vásquez, A., Granadillo, V. (2007).
