Approximately from the age of 30 onwards, the likelihood of prostate gland gradually enlarging increases. This is a natural process, but can lead to discomfort after a certain point.
An enlarged prostate can put increased pressure on the bladder, leading to frequent or uncontrolled urination, restlessness and sleep disturbances, which can negatively affect quality of life.
The health claims in relation to plants and plant substances have not yet been conclusively evaluated. However, based on traditional use and/or a strong body of research, many researchers consider the presumed or reported effectiveness to be sufficiently established.
Pumpkin seed extract can support bladder and prostate function in men. Pumpkin seeds contain unsaturated fatty acids, proteins, carbohydrates, trace elements such as selenium, manganese, zinc, and copper, as well as vitamin E, phytosterols and lignans.
When consumed, this group of active ingredients reaches the urinary organs, the prostate and the pelvic floor. Pumpkin seeds may help maintain good bladder function and a smooth flow of urine and may significantly reduce the frequency of urination. [1]
Nettle leaves contain numerous valuable vital substances, including calcium, potassium, magnesium, vitamin A, vitamin C, iron, silicon, phenolcarboxylic acids and tannins. Nettle is traditionally used to help with bladder problems and benign prostate enlargement. In this context, combining it with saw palmetto extract is considered beneficial. [2]
The dried fruits of the saw palmetto are traditionally used to help relieve symptoms associated with benign prostate enlargement. These include an increased urge to urinate, even at night, delayed or difficult bladder emptying, a weakened urinary stream, or a feeling of incomplete emptying of the bladder. [2]
Like pumpkin seeds, flax also contains lignans. These compounds, also known as phytohormones, can reach the urinary organs, the prostate, and the pelvic floor, supporting metabolic processes, which is why they are believed to have a positive effect on maintaining a healthy prostate with age.
Lycopene is a plant-derived compound found in high amounts in tomatoes, giving them their red color. As a powerful antioxidant, lycopene helps to protect cells from oxidative stress.
Lycopene can counteract the oxidation of LDL cholesterol and thus lower cholesterol levels. As the prostate actively stores cholesterol, scientists assume that lowering cholesterol also has a positive effect on the prostate. [3]
Like lycopene, quercetin is also a powerful antioxidant. It helps to protect the cells from oxidative stress, which can be caused by an excess of free radicals.
The effects of vitamins and minerals on the human body have been scientifically examined by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). [4]
- Zinc supports the maintenance of normal testosterone levels in the blood [4] and thus has a positive influence on the prostate: Not infrequently is a reduction in testosterone production responsible for prostate enlargement.
- Studies have also shown that selenium has a positive effect on prostate health. [5] It also supports normal sperm formation and sperm quality. [4]
- Vitamin B6 contributes to normal metabolic functions and to the regulation of hormonal activity. [4]
