Bee Pollen: Nature’s Answer to Prostate Problems
Did you know the stuff bees gather to make honey can help you urinate with more power?
Pollen, as you know, is the “seed” of all flowering plants. Without it, they would not be able to reproduce.
But what you may not know is that pollen is also loaded with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, unsaturated fats, enzymes, and more. It is a “super food” for bees — and for your prostate.
So how exactly does pollen work for your prostate?
Pollen extract’s ability to promote better prostate function involves a hormone called dihydrotestosterone (DHT). It’s a derivative of testosterone; it tells your prostate to grow over time. DHT collects in prostate tissue by binding to your prostate’s cells and building up in your system.
I’ve been saying for years that it’s DHT, not testosterone, that’s your prostate’s real enemy. In fact, DHT is nine times more powerful than testosterone at making your prostate grow.
Pollen extract has the power to knock out DHT. Researchers in England gave it to men who made frequent trips to the bathroom and had trouble urinating. After six months, 79% of them showed real improvement, 36% got rid of symptoms entirely and 42% had reduced symptoms.1
