Dr Whiting on Prostate Health and Inflammation

The above video discusses the causes and natural treatments for BPH (Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy), more commonly known as an enlarged prostate.  While I do not specifically endorse the product mentioned in the video, I do recommend the use of saw palmetto, pygeum africanum, omega-3 fatty acids, stinging nettle, and amino acids like glycine as Dr. Whiting discusses.  Another effective herbal remedy for prostate enlargement that was not mentioned by Dr. Whiting is cernitin (sometimes spelled cernilton) pollen, which is an extract from the pollen of a particular type of flower.

I have not used the product Dr. Whiting discusses in the video with my patients, so I cannot offer an opinion on it specifically, but I can say that good quality products that contain a combination of some or all of the specific ingredients mentioned are usually quite effective in decreasing prostate-related symptoms.  In my office, I have used combination products such as Nutriwest’s “Total Male” as well as saw palmetto by itself, and while single ingredient products like saw palmetto are effctive too, it appears that the combination of several ingredients that help reduce prostate enlargement have slightly better results, presumably through a synergistic effect of the ingredients.
