nutraMetrix® Prime™ Prostate Defense Formula - Single Bottle (30 Servings)

nutraMetrix Prime Prostate Defense Formula’s unique formulation helps to maintain optimal prostate size and function. It may also help to minimize the negative effects of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone which impacts prostate health. Prime Prostate Defense Formula also works to induce cell death in unhealthy cells and provides antioxidant protection. There are several unique components that impact overall prostate health and, unlike many other prostate products on the market, nutraMetrix Prime Prostate Defense Formula addresses each of them through its powerful combination of scientifically-proven ingredients, including the patented grape seed extract, Leucoselect®. Leucoselect’s well defined chemical composition provides greater absorption and increased activity in the body than standard grape seed extracts.*

Understanding the prostate: The prostate is a small gland, about the size of a walnut, below the bladder in men. Maintaining a healthy prostate is critical in maintaining reproductive health, quality of life and more.

Saw Palmetto (45% free fatty acids) 640 mg
Saw palmetto is an extract of the fruit of Serenoa repens . It is rich in special fatty acids and has traditionally been used for a variety of indications related to the promotion of prostate health. Research indicates saw palmetto may help to maintain urinary health, including frequency of urination. Saw palmetto appears to inhibit an enzyme known to convert testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Some research indicates that saw palmetto also induces programmed cell death (apoptosis) in unhealthy cells. 

Stinging Nettle Extract (0.8% beta-sitosterol) 300 mg
Stinging nettle or common nettle, Urtica dioica , is a herbaceous perennial flowering plant, native to Europe, Asia, northern Africa and North America. Stinging nettle research suggests that it helps maintain normal levels of 5-alpha-reductase, an enzyme which facilitates the conversion of testosterone to DHT. When taken in combination with saw palmetto, stinging nettle appears to promote urinary tract health.

Plant Sterols (min 40% beta sitosterol) 233 mg Research has shown that supplementing with beta sitosterol helps to maintain optimal prostate size and urinary function. Animal research on prostate health suggests that beta-sitosterol might also promote normal 5-alpha-reductase activity, the enzyme responsible for the conversion of testosterone to DHT. Research suggests beta-sitosterol might help to promote normal prostate cell production and size.

Pumpkin Seed Extract (4:1) 160 mg Pumpkin Seed Extract aids in prostate health by promoting normal urinary flow and helping to maintain bladder comfort.

Leucoselect ® - Grape seed extract (95% polyphenols) 125 mg
Leucoselect is a patented grape seed extract with a well-defined composition supported by numerous clinical studies. Leucoselect contains high levels of polyphenols which are substances that have properties widely recognized to promote health.

Dyer's Woad Extract (15:1) ( Isatis indigotica ) 40 mg
Dyer’s Woad is a flowering plant native to the grasslands and desert zones of the Caucasus, Central Asia to eastern Siberia and Western Asia, but is also now found in southeastern and some parts of Central Europe as well. It has been cultivated throughout Europe, especially in Western and southern Europe, since ancient times. Its active component, indirubin, has been shown to be effective in promoting cell death in unhealthy cells.

Zinc Citrate 20 mg
Zinc helps to maintain healthy cells within the prostate. Within the body, zinc accumulates higher in prostate tissue than in any other soft tissue so supplementation is helpful in maintaining cellular health within the prostate.

The ingredients in this formulation were carefully selected to support prostate health. Working synergistically, each of these play a role in minimizing the negative effects of DHT, promoting healthy cell function, all helping to maintain healthy prostate size and function.

Is nutraMetrix® Prime™ Prostate Defense Formula for men only?
Yes. nutraMetrix Prime Prostate Defense Formula was created specifically to promote a healthy prostate gland. Though the individual ingredients may support the health of both men and women, together they work synergistically to support a man’s body, particularly the prostate.

How many men are affected by an enlarged prostate?
Nearly 40 percent of the United States’ male population over the age of 40 lives with an enlarged prostate gland, and that number doubles to 80 percent for men over the age of 80.

Is taking nutraMetrix® Prime™ Prostate Defense Formula all I need to do to maintain a healthy prostate?
No. In order to contribute to maintenance of a healthy prostate, you should eat a sensible diet, exercise regularly, and avoid cigarette smoking and excessive alcohol assumption, in addition to taking nutraMetrix Prime Prostate Defense Formula.

I think I might have an enlarged prostate; what should I do?
See your doctor immediately if you are experiencing any of the following: weak or interrupted flow of urine, frequent urination, difficulty with urination (especially at night), pain or burning during urination, blood in urine, nagging pain in the back, hips or pelvis. All of these symptoms could be signs of a serious medical condition and should be examined by a doctor immediately.

Is nutraMetrix® Prime™ Prostate Defense Formula only for older men?
No, nutraMetrix Prime Prostate Defense Formula is for men of all ages. Though poor prostate health is most common in older men, it is important to care for your prostate all throughout life. Younger men should consider their prostate now to help maintain prostate health in the future.
