Description

Research has suggested that the active ingredients found in BioProstate may be linked to improved function of the prostate gland, leading to overall better health of the prostate.

BioProstate may work to assist in reducing the frequency of urination, as well in protecting the body against a variety of disorders.

• Pumpkin seed, found in BioProstate, has been used to help reduce enlarged prostate glands.
• It is possible that a diet rich in lycopene, found in tomatoes and other foods, may help to reduce prostate disease.⁹
• Zinc, found in BioProstate, may play a significant role in maintaining the health of the prostate gland.¹⁰
