Prostate Support è un coadiuvante della funzione della prostata, la cui formula è data dalla combinazione sinergica di 9 piante della foresta pluviale, note fra le tribù indigene per le loro proprietà antisettiche, antibatteriche, diuretiche e antimicotiche.
Il problema dell'ingrossamento della prostata colpisce circa il 96% degli uomini al di sopra dei 45 anni di età. L'ingrossamento della prostata può comportare oltre al problema di dover spesso urinare, specialmente di notte, impotenza e disfunzioni erettili. Fra le varie cause dell'ingrossamento della prostata, le più frequenti sono la riduzione del testosterone, infezioni o un tumore (che può essere sia benigno che maligno).

Ingredienti: Miscela al 100% naturale di nettle, jatoba, mutamba, graviola, brazilian peppertree, vassourinha, cipó cabeludo, pau d'arco e anamu. Non sono stati aggiunti leganti o additivi.
Uso suggerito: Come integratore alimentare, assumere 2 capsule 2- 3 volte al giorno.
Indicazioni pratiche:
Test di laboratorio hanno dimostrato proprietà antimicrobiche di diverse piante contenute nel composto. Un uso prolungato può condurre alla diminuzione dei batteri benigni del tratto digestivo. Si consiglia di assumere probiotici o enzimi digestivi se si assume Prostate Support per più di 30 giorni.
Il cipó cabeludo contiene naturalmente cumarina che ha proprietà anticoagulanti. Si consiglia uno stretto monitoraggio agli individui che fanno uso di farmaci anticoagulanti o che soffrono di disturbi della coagulazione sanguigna come l'emofilia.
Alcuni studi hanno evidenziato proprietà ipotensive di alcune piante del composto. Si consiglia uno stretto monitoraggio agli individui che soffrono di bassa pressione arteriosa.
