What is BPH?
BPH is the simple term for prostate enlargement, and of course many men as they get older dread prostate enlargement, when we are younger we hear older men grieving about old age and prostate problems , having issues with urinating and of course even the fear of prostate cancer, but did you know that recent research supports the use of herbal products in treating BPH or prostate enlargement.
Research has shown that saw palmetto is strongly supported in Europe as a primary treatment herb for men with BPH. In the six month study saw palmetto, pumpkin seed oil and nettle root extract where used. The study found that those men taking the herbal supplement showed significant prostate improvement, but the improvements where not statistically significant which may have been due to the small number of subjects in the study, but the study did show positive effects from the saw palmetto, which can possibly shed some light on how the saw palmetto works. Because what researchers did notice is a reduction in the epithelium lining of the prostate contracting, while the total size of the prostate did not change the actual epithelium lining did.
The conclusion of the study showed that saw palmetto resulted in overall reduction or contraction of the prostatic epithelial tissues.
So once again another plus for herbal supplements and remedies for curing yet one more common ailment, which otherwise men would possibly have to resort to the use of more invasive measures such as surgical reduction.
Now this study was conducted in Europe and it is well known that Europeans much prefer the use of herbal or alternative treatment, in Italy herbal remedies are used 5 times as often as synthetic drugs are, and and in Germany, more than 90 percent of men and their Doctors choose herbal remedies over synthetic drugs for treating BPH better known as enlargement of the prostate.
