How It Works:
Men's Formula is specifically created for men 40 and older who seek a nutritional boost for prostate gland function. Native Americans found the saw palmetto fruit to support the glandular, urinary and digestive systems. Saw palmetto supports the prostate gland. It protects this gland from active forms of testosterone. Lycopene has been shown to have a protective effect on prostate gland function. Gotu kola herb supports the nervous system and promotes endurance.

Also called the American dwarf palm, saw palmetto was used historically for female reproductive issues and for prostate health. Native Americans, including the Seminoles of Florida, used its berries for food. Saw palmetto berries became part of Western medicine in the 1870s and were officially included in the US Pharmacopoeia in 1906. They were listed in the National Formulary through World War II.
The Aztecs and Incas were growing tomatoes in 700 AD. In the 16th century, Europeans visiting North America took tomato plants home for decorating. Lycopene wasn’t discovered until 1876. And we continue to learn more about the valuable health benefits of this carotenoid. Our lycopene comes from non-GMO tomatoes that are grown in the US from a particular plant breed that yields the best lycopene.
