The two most commonly prescribed drugs for prostate diseases are finasteride and tamsulosin.
They tend to cause horrible side effects, such as ED, dizziness, fever, cold sweats, sleep disturbances, bloat, weight changes, fatigue, and many others.
Scientists have been seeking effective natural substances to replace these drugs. The best known is saw palmetto, which has some effect but is not effective enough.
A new study reported in the Journal of East Africa Science tested saw palmetto in combination with five other common plants, and the results were remarkable.
In fact, combining these six plant extracts was more effective than the pharmaceutical drugs without any side effects.
The study started with an evaluation of a plant called saw palmetto.
Since a lot of research has already been done on saw palmetto, the authors of the new study consulted the available research to find out whether it worked for prostate problems, whether it was safe, whether it worked in combination with other plants, and exactly how it worked.
After analyzing studies conducted between 1998 and 2021, they drew the following conclusions.
-
1. Saw palmetto is an effective treatment for prostatitis, enlarged prostate, and prostate cancer.
2. It has antiandrogenic effects, meaning that it prevents male sex hormones from binding to proteins called androgen receptors that, in turn, prevent the prostate from growing too quickly.
3. It promotes cell turnover—old cells dying to make room for new ones.
4. It has anti-inflammatory effects.
5. While it does affect male hormones, it works only on dihydrotestosterone and not on prostate-specific antigen.
6. It is safe.
7. Its potency is improved when it is combined with plants such as
- stinging nettle,
- ginger,
- cucurbita pepo (the plant that yields pumpkin, squash, and zucchini),
- echinacea, and
- angustifolia (narrow-leaved purple coneflower).Saw palmetto combined with plants such as these makes it more effective than finasteride and tamsulosin.
Saw palmetto supplements are widely available in tablet form. Ginger and nettle are the most commonly available of the other plants, the former in your kitchen and the latter as a supplement. You will have to mix them or take them together to replicate this study’s findings.
There is only one supplement that I know of that includes almost all of these plant substances in addition to saw palmetto. It’s called Prostate911. I highly recommend it, and you can get it here…
Most importantly, this study proves that enlarged prostate can be cured naturally, without the side effects of drugs.
