With age the prostate tends to grow larger: this is an enlarged prostate, or benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), very common after 50, which can cause urinary symptoms such as frequent urination, difficulty urinating and a weak urine flow. A prostate supplement does not cure or prevent benign prostatic hyperplasia, prostatitis or other diseases: it supports prostate health and normal prostate function, alongside a healthy lifestyle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to choose a prostate supplement?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is no single ranking of the best prostate supplements that suits everyone. To choose a product, check which substances it contains and at what dose, that the stated effects are authorised and that the supplement is notified to the Ministry of Health. Besides saw palmetto, pumpkin and nettle, many prostate supplements contain pygeum, boswellia, lycopene (from tomato, Solanum lycopersicum), zinc, selenium or vitamins; they come in different formats, from softgels to sachets. ProstaCom® Ultra comes in tablets. If in doubt, ask your doctor or pharmacist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAre zinc and vitamins good for the prostate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe prostate is one of the tissues richest in zinc, which is why zinc and vitamins often appear in prostate supplements. The claims authorised in Europe, however, do not concern the prostate: zinc contributes to normal fertility and reproduction and to the maintenance of normal testosterone levels in the blood, selenium to normal spermatogenesis, vitamins C and E to the protection of cells from oxidative stress. ProstaCom® Ultra contains no minerals or vitamins: it focuses on plant extracts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhen should you see a doctor about a prostate problem?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen you have difficulty urinating, a weak stream, a frequent need to urinate even at night, blood in the urine, pain or fever. These symptoms should always be assessed by a doctor, who with an examination and tests such as PSA can tell a benign enlargement of the prostate from other conditions, including prostate cancer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat should you avoid for your prostate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLifestyle matters.
