Product Detail: Prosta-Support Formula, Douglas Labs

Comprehensive Nutrition for Prostate Health
Prosta-Support Formula, provided by Douglas
Laboratories, is a synergistic and comprehensive
combination of vitamins, minerals, herbals, and other
nutrients, carefully formulated and specifically
designed to support and maintain general health as
well as the health and function of the prostate.
FUNCTIONS
Prosta-Support Formula contains not only the base
formula of Douglas Laboratories’ Ultra Specific series of
products that offers intensive support for the healthy
functioning of the body in general, but also the Prosta-Support
Proprietary Blend providing compounds that work
specifically to maintain the structure and function of a
healthy prostate.
Saw Palmetto inhibits the conversion of testosterone to its
more active, and potentially deleterious form,
dihydrotestosterone (DHT), via inhibition of alpha-5-reductase.
Saw palmetto not only inhibits the binding of
DHT to cellular receptors, but also has alpha1-
adrenoceptor-inhibitory properties. Alpha1-adrenoceptor
antagonism may be responsible for saw palmetto’s
therapeutic effect in relieving the urinary tract symptoms of
benign prostate hyperplasia. Saw palmetto extracts have
also been found to inhibit the biosynthesis of
proinflammatory prostaglandins and leukotrienes which
may exacerbate those symptoms.
Pygeum extract decreases prolactin and cholesterol levels
in the prostate, which in turn decreases uptake and reduces
the number of binding sites for testosterone in the prostate.
In addition, pygeum extract, like saw palmetto, interferes
with the synthesis of proinflammatory prostaglandins.
Pumpkin seed and nettles are thought to have similar
pharmacotherapeutic properties.
Citrus bioflavonoids, vitamin E, vitamin C, zinc, and
selenium provide potent antioxidant protection against
oxidative damage to the prostate. Vitamin D-3 is reported
to inhibit cell proliferation and encourage apoptosis.
