ZMA – Are you wasting your money?

ZMA, Zinc Magnesium Aspartate, is a dietary supplement which has been on the market for several years now.  Though it was invited by Victore Conte of Balco infamy, ZMA is still a popular supplement choice for bodybuilders and anyone who engages in resistance training.

ZMA is marketed as a product that helps to boost your testosterone levels and to help increase muscle mass.  In the past, companies marketed the product as ‘clinically proven’ based on an abstract presented several years ago.

Why are you buying ZMA?

Since then, there have only been a small number of studies on this product.  Unfortunately, these studies have found that ZMA supplementation neither helps increase testosterone levels nor muscle mass which raises the question of why fitness enthusiasts are still buying this product.

Does ZMA work?

How to shrink an enlarged prostate?

Benign prostate hyperplasia is an increasingly common concern among our aging population.  It’s so common, in fact, that it’s almost considered a ‘normal’ part of aging itself.

For those who suffer from benign prostate hyperplasia or benign prostate hypertrophy as it’s alternately referred to, there are several treatment options to shrink or reduce the size of your prostate gland.

To start with, you should always consult the advice of your physician.  There are a number of effective medications available to shrink your prostate.  In addition, there are some natural treatment options which are considered to be effective including saw palmetto extract.

A recent study by researchers in Italy have found the herbal preparation, Pluvio® to be an effective option for reducing the lower urinary tract symptoms often associated with BPH [1].  Pluvio® is a novel combination of plant extracts including avocado and soy oil in addition to Urtica Dioica.
