2 Herbal Solutions for Prostate Health

According to the American Cancer Society, 1 in 8 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer during his lifetime: making it the second leading cause of cancer death in American men.  Unfortunately, early warning signs for prostate cancer are rare, so for many years the disease may be silent. Symptoms such as bone pain, blood in urine or weight loss can be found only when prostate cancer has spread beyond the organ.

For this reason, screening for prostate cancer is crucial. But even more common than Prostate cancer, as men age, is the development of an enlarged prostate, also known as benign prostatic hyperplasia, or BPH (enlargement of the prostate). By age 60, approximately 30% of men show moderate to severe symptoms of BPH; and by age 80, that rises to 50%.

An enlarged prostate gland can cause a variety of uncomfortable urinary symptoms, such as erectile dysfunction, a weak urine stream, a stream that starts and stops, frequent nighttime urges and an inability to fully empty the bladder.  If any of this sounds familiar to you or someone you know, the key to a healthy prostate is a healthy lifestyle and a flora balance in the body. 

Here are two tried-and-true formulas to strengthen the prostate and build your immune system to combat the progression of the disease:

The first formula, Prostate Support Formula, combines a symphony of herbs that, together, with cayenne used as the catalyst to drive the other herbs to stimulate the prostate.
