Product Ingredients Several traditional herbs such as saw palmetto berry, Pygeum africanum and pumpkin seeds have been used to support the health of the bladder, urethra and prostate and have been subjected to modern pharmacological and clinical studies for several decades. Recent research also indicates that protecting the prostate from "oxidative stress" is essential to maintaining prostate health. Because of this knowledge, a modern and useful formula for prostate health should include both potent herbal extracts and antioxidants as its foundation. Prosta·Logic® is uniquely formulated to provide advanced nutritional support in maintaining healthy prostate function. The key ingredients included in Prosta·Logic are: · Saw palmetto (Serenoa repens) · Pygeum africanum · Pumpkin seed oil extract · Aged Garlic Extract (AGE) · Lycopene · Zinc Saw palmetto (Serenoa repens) The fruit extract of this herb has been traditionally used to maintain healthy bladder, urethra, and prostate function. The clinical efficacy of this extract and its tolerability have been demonstrated in numerous clinical trials, including double-blind studies. Saw palmetto berry extract has been shown to benefit the prostate by inhibiting dihydrotestosterone (DHT), which causes prostate cells to multiply. It also inhibits the action of testosterone 5-alpha reductase, an enzyme that causes additional DHT production. Possibly most important is that saw palmetto modifies immune function in the prostate, supporting the prostate's ability to neutralize "oxidative stress" associated with prostate diseases. TOP Pygeum africanum The Pygeum africanum is a tall evergreen tree which grows around Africa. The brown bark of this plant has been used as a folk remedy for bladder health and proper urinary flow. The lipophilic extract of Pygeum africanum counteracts prostate prostaglandins, another important factor in maintaining prostate health. Clinical studies have shown Pygeum africanum extract to be particularly beneficial in maintaining proper urinary tract function. TOP Pumpkin seed oil extract Pumpkin seeds have long had a reputation as a beneficial dietary supplement to promote healthful urinary function. This property, of course, makes the pumpkin seed especially well suited to support prostate function. Pumpkin seed oil extract contains the essential fatty acids, which are useful for optimal prostate health. In a double-blind, placebo controlled study, a combined application of pumpkin seed oil extract with saw palmetto berry extract showed enhanced effectiveness in supporting healthy prostate function, even though the saw palmetto berry dosage was reduced. TOP Aged Garlic Extract (AGE) A variety of health related benefits of AGE have been widely demonstrated. Physicians from Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center at Cornell University recently found that S-allylmercaptocysteine (SAMC), a sulfur compound characteristic of AGE which is only produced during the aging of garlic, can break down dihyrotestosterone which accelerates abnormal cell growth. Both this peculiar organosulfur compound and AGE have also demonstrated antioxidant activity in studies. These effects in combination with AGE's ability to promote healthy circulation and immune function, make AGE essential for a quality a supplement aimed at providing nutritional support for healthy prostate function. TOP Lycopene Very high levels of lycopene are found in healthy prostate tissue. Scientific interests have addressed an association between Lycopene levels in the prostate and the health of the prostate, with reduced levels being associated reduced health. An epidemiological study conducted in Italy showed that intake of tomatoes and tomato products, which are the primary source of Lycopene, was strongly associated with healthy prostate function. The tomato oleoresin in Prosta·Logic also contains other antioxidants such as carotenoids, vitamin C and vitamin E, which work synergistically with lycopene in producing antioxidant and immune stimulating effects that may benefit prostate health. TOP Zinc Zinc is concentrated in the prostate more than any other organ in the body. It has been shown to help support healthy immune function and to suppress damaging free radicals both on its own and as a constituent of many vital enzymes, including the antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD). Zinc has been shown to inhibit the production of DHT (responsible for cell multiplication) as well as to inhibit its ability to bind receptors, thus allowing for increased excretion of this hormone. Zinc picolinate is the best form of zinc due to its high bioavailablity making it ideal for supporting healthy prostate function.
