Male Supplements for Health

Herbs for men help treat the specific health needs of the male population. Along with the many therapeutic herbs that promote general health and well-being, there are a number of natural herbs that have been shown to treat particular conditions that affect men as they go through life.

Herbs for Men - Specific Male Issues

Prostate Enlargement & Prostate Cancer

One of the most important issues affecting men is prostate growth and prostate cancer. As we discuss in our Prostate Herbs section, prostate enlargement affects half of the male population by the age of fifty. The condition is known as benign prostate hypertrophy (BPH), which can eventually lead to prostate cancer.

Herbs for Men - Best Prostate Herbs

Saw Palmetto - an herb from a small palm tree native to the Atlantic seaboard, saw palmetto is the most popular and researched prostate herb. Saw palmetto contains beta sitosterol, a powerful compound that interferes with the conversion of testosterone to DHT. Studies show that saw palmetto shrinks enlarged prostates and relieves urinary problems.

Red Clover - a member of the pea family, red clover contains powerful antioxidants that fight off cancerous growths. Red clover inhibits DHT formation, thus inhibiting enlargement of the prostate gland and the symptoms that accompany it.

Other important nutrients for prostate health

In addition to prostate herbs, the following nutrients are important in promoting prostate health.

Zinc - an important mineral for many bodily processes, a zinc deficiency predisposes the prostate gland to infection, which could eventually lead to enlargement.

Vitamin B6 - along with zinc, Vitamin B6 regulates the hormone that converts testosterone to DHT, and helps prevent swelling of the prostate.

Lycopene - this extract from tomatoes contains powerful antioxidants that may be able to reduce BPH inflammation and prevent prostate cancer.

Impotence and Low Male Libido

Impotence is a problem that affects millions of men, and it can be caused by a variety of factors, including stress, depression, low hormone levels and alcholism, among others. Herbs for impotence treat the condition in three ways:

1. There are herbs that relax the mind so that it can concentrate on sexual feeling and activity.

2. There are herbs that promote circulation through the body, particularly to the penis.

3. There are herbs that help balance the body's sexual hormone levels.

Herbs for Men - Best Impotence Herbs

Ginkgo Biloba - Gingko improves circulation to the penis as well as acts to alleviate the symptoms of depression which may be a cause of impotence. Gingko also stimulates the mind and helps with concentration.

Gotu Kola - Gotu kola improves circulation as well as enhances mental performance and concentration.

Muira Puama - Muira puama has been shown to increase both male and female sex drive, as well as help maintain erections. Muira puama may also help balance sexual hormone levels.

Tribulus - Tribulus has been shown to help with impotence and infertility, as well as stimulate hormone production.

Other important nutrients for impotence

L-Arginine - this essential amino acid has been shown to increase blood flow to the penis.

Herbs for Men - What are the best herbal male supplements?

Should you take all of these herbs and nutrients separately or together in one comprehensive formula?

We recommend that you take these nutrients together if possible for many reasons:

1. Taking each herb, vitamin and mineral separately could prove very costly as you would have to buy many different supplements.

2. Mixing and matching nutrients on your own could be dangerous to your health.

3. Many herbs and nutrients working together can offer more therapeutic benefits, often better than a single nutrient on its own.

4. All of these nutrients have to be balanced perfectly in order to be optimally effective.

We have found two natural products that contain special herbs for men as well as other nutrients for male health and overall health.

The first product is called Male Rejuvenator and it contains a synergistic balance of herbs for men plus other essential herbs, minerals, vitamins and nutrients for general health and well-being. Male Rejuvenator contains specific ingredients that help maintain and support the prostate, including beta sitosterol, the active ingredient in saw palmetto.

For treating low male energy, we have found a special companion supplement called Natural Energy Formula containing pure bee pollen as well as vitamins, minerals and amino acids that have been shown to improve sexual function and sex drive.

Many of our male editors and visitors have experienced success with Male Rejuvenator. They have used it for its herbs for men as well as its many other therapeutic benefits. Some of them have used this in conjunction with the Natural Energy Formula, and have noticed considerable increases in sex drive and sexual energy.

As with all health supplements, results vary from person to person so be sure to consult your physician or qualified herbal professional before taking any herbs for men or herbal supplements.
