PSA Caps

Ingredient Breakdown:

Beta-Sitosterol – A plant sterol (phytosterol) with a structure like endogenous cholesterol, beta-sitosterol inhibits 5-alpha reductase, the enzyme that converts testosterone to harmful dihydrotestosterone (DHT). It also decreases activity of aromatase, an enzyme that accelerates the conversion of testosterone to harmful estrogen—estradiol and estrone.

Saw Palmetto Extract (Seronoa Repens) – The extract from this plant (a creeping palm) is a frequently used herbal treatment for enhancing prostate health.

Stinging Nettle (Urtica Dioica Root Extract 4:1) – The active ingredient in this plant inhibits the ability of epidermal growth factor (EGF), which would otherwise stimulate growth of prostate tissue (a key underlying factor in the progression of an enlarged prostate).

Epilobium (Small Flowered Willow Herb) – This floral plant contains two polyphenols (Oenothein A, Oenothein B), which inhibit the 5-alpha reductase enzyme conversion of testosterone to DHT. Epilobium also inhibits aromatase from converting testosterone to estrogens.

Lycopene – This powerful antioxidant protects the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) content of lymphocytes (cells found in the blood, lymph, and lymphoid tissues) from oxidative damage.

Alanine, Glutamic Acid, Glycine – These amino acids, when taken together for 14 days or more, have been shown to minimize the symptoms of an enlarged prostate.
