Nature's Life Prostate Maintain - Prostate Support Supplement for Men's Health - Saw Palmetto, Pygeum Herbal Complex and Zinc Supplements - 50 Servings, 100 Vegetarian Capsules

I've been taking prostate supplements for 20 years. I started taking glycine for sleep and noticed a difference in my prostate. After doing more research, I found some old studies using the three amino acids in this formula that showed positive results. When I compared the other ingredients in this formula to 1 of the 2 supplements I was taking, it was very similar with the exception of the addition of the amino acids. I take 2 capsules in the am and 2 capsules in the pm. Works better than the other two supplements I was taking together. Now I spend less, only have to take one supplement and its working better. Happy I found this.

The best prostate support that I have used in the past 13 years.

I've been taking this since January 2022; the dosage Directions on the label are misleading: "Take two (2) vegetarian capsules daily with a meal OR glass of water." I've learned thru careful trial that taking the capsules with a meal simply dilutes the potency seriously and you don't see results. If you look at the review by Rich, "Emulates an Asian/European Prescription Drug," he explains, "Since the active ingredients are the amino acids Glycine, Alanine, & Glutamic Acid they should be consumed on an empty stomach at least two hours after your last meal. If they are consumed with other proteins they will just be digested as more food and the effect will be greatly reduced." I have found this to be true except I have to wait 3 to 4 hours for an empty stomach before I take the 2nd dose (less waiting if your prior meal was small). The first dosage, in the morning, should be as soon as you wake up, and 30 minutes before you eat breakfast. All dosages will work best if you take them on an empty stomach at least 30 minutes before a meal or 3 to 4 hours after a prior meal. The 2nd dosage can be a problem sometimes when the time constraint window clashes with your schedule. But when I'm able to adhere to those time constraints, I've had great freedom from urgency and frequent urinations, and near-firehose urination. There is another constraint but it's not the fault of the product: If you eat walnuts, say to improve your memory, look at the review by J. Adams, "BPH;" she states that eating "nuts" will worsen your BPH condition. I've learned that walnuts are the particular culprit, and the reason is the phytic acid in the walnuts worsens your BPH condition so much, only a handful of walnuts will negate your herbal dosage completely. Until I discovered this very recently, I've been urinating almost every hour, and of course I've been upset. It's the walnuts, not the Nature's Life Prostate 600 Maintain Plus product. The nuts that are safe to eat if you have a BPH condition are almonds, cashews, peanuts, and pine nuts. Raw peanut butter is beneficial for BPH patients because it contains phytosterols which are an ingredient in some herbal BPH supplements. Finally, if you miss more than one dosage because you substituted another product for one day or more, you have to start over again, and give the product time to work in your body again. The older you are, the more carefully you need to adhere to the time window for dosages, and possibly increase your dosage a bit. When the time constraints are met consistently, it works great!

I've tried a few of these kinds of products. Each one has slightly different effects for me. And I also find that switching after a few months to one of the other products seems to "jump start" their effects. Here's how Prostate 600 has worked for me: Sleep all night? Excellent - most nights I sleep through without having to go. Once in a while I need to go once, but never more than that. Reduced urgency? Very good - usually can wait until the next toilet is available, but, trying to be practical, I make "preventive strikes" just to be safe. Full straight flow? usually okay, but sometimes not - get close to the target. Two suggestions: (1) When I first started using this, it took a few days for the effects to "regularize", so wait a week or two before evaluating whether it is right for you. (2) When trying to diet a little, the first thing my body does is loses what I think of as "water weight". Be aware of this and be ready for the frequency to increase. Overall, for me, this is one of the products that work pretty well.

This is a very good vitamins supplements

My husband has BPH and recently his numbers doubled, so in addition to the Rx medication, we're doing whatever we can to bring those numbers down as low as we can! He's young and I don't want anything to happen to him! One thing we didn't know, and no one told us is that nuts aren't good for men with BPH! My husband is a very health conscience person and he'd eat a handful of nuts per day for the healthy fats. Nuts have PHYTIC ACID, I put phytic acid in caps because I want to be sure anyone with this condition knows about it! It's not good for people with BPH. We have yet to see if removing nuts from his diet will lower the numbers, but we're hopeful - very hopeful because his numbers were off the charts and he's only in his 50's! Anyway, back to Nature's Life Prostate Maintain; I did a LOT of research, and this was one of just a few products which had all or most of the ingredients we required in a Prostate product. I'm having him take more than is suggested just because his numbers were so high, and we'll have a blood test done again soon to see how he's doing. If they haven't come down he'll have to have a biopsy to see if his BPH is looking more like cancer - let's hope NOT! I highly recommend a GOOD prostate product to all men at any risk factors - even as young as 18 to 21 - you're never too young to start on a good supplement! All men w/o risk over 30, and certainly all men with BHP!

Great product and time honored
