Prostacet Review
Prostacet is a dietary supplement that promotes a healthy prostate by reducing prostate inflammation and free radical damage, which can lead to prostate problems. Although it won't say if it can prevent prostate problems, it does claim to be a powerful supplement for all aspects of prostate health, which also encompasses prostate problems. It also claims to improve urinary flow, which can be affected by an enlarged prostate, known as benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH).
Prostacet Ingredients:
Prostacet contains zinc chelate, vitamin E, selenium and beta carotene. It also contains a small proprietary mixture consisting of saw palmetto extract, lycopene extract, corn silk powder, and other herbs and extracts.
Does Prostacet Work?
Only for the reduction of prostate problems.According to a study conducted by the National Health Institute, men who took up to 100mg of zinc per day significantly reduced their prostate problem risk. Another study conducted by the Agricultural Research Service (ARS) also confirms this. And their study revealed that zinc reduced the level of proteins found in prostate cells, inhibiting its reproduction. But the results aren't all positive: other studies show taking too much, or over 100mg, of zinc per day can increase the risk for prostate problems.
Vitamin E and selenium are also thought to be effective agents against the spread of prostate problems, but a recent study conducted by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) showed both ingredients had no effect on prostate problems. Called the SELECT trial, the researchers had 35,000 men take vitamin E and selenium supplements daily, testing them for any decreased signs of prostate problems. The results were similar to a placebo, proving it had no effect on a man's risk of prostate problems.
Is Prostacet Safe?
Take Prostacet as prescribed to avoid any additional side effects. Overdosing can cause unpleasant digestive side effects.
Grade: B
Protecting yourself from prostate problems is just as important as reducing your risk for BPH, and Prostacet contains one key ingredient that may enable that. There are far more effective prostate supplements available, however, including Vasotrexx.
