NETTLE ROOT

Stinging nettle root extract has been used by European herbalists for centuries to promote healthy prostate function^1,2.* Stinging nettle roots are rich in variety of vitamins (C, K, A, B), minerals (calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus), polyphenols (kaempferol, quercetin, caffeic acid, coumarins and other flavonoids), pigments (beta-carotene, lutein, luteoxanthin) and other carotenoids (fatty and amino acids). Many studies show the beneficial effect of Stinging nettle when combined with Saw palmetto. Our Stinging nettle root extract is standardized to 0.8% phytosterols, to provide the recommended levels of its ingredients and help contribute to healthy hormonal balance in the prostate, along with zinc and selenium^2-4.* It also supports normal healthy libido and sexual function⁵.*
