As men age, it's essential to prioritize their health and well-being. Three significant areas that warrant special attention are Prostate Health, Heart Health, and Injury/Inflammation Support. Let's delve into each of these concerns, understand how they can worsen with age, and explore proactive steps to maintain optimal health.
Prostate Health:The prostate gland is a vital part of the male reproductive system, responsible for producing seminal fluid. As men age, the prostate can undergo various changes, with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prostate cancer becoming more prevalent concerns.
BPH can lead to urinary symptoms, while prostate cancer is a potentially serious condition. Regular screenings and discussions with a healthcare provider are crucial for early detection and appropriate management.
Some symptoms of concern may include:
Urinary Changes:
Symptoms: Frequent urination, especially at night (nocturia), difficulty initiating urination, weak urine stream, dribbling after urination, and a feeling of incomplete bladder emptying. (1)
Erectile Dysfunction:
Symptoms: Difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection, decreased sexual desire or libido, and challenges with sexual performance. (2)
Pelvic Pain or Discomfort:
Symptoms: Pain or discomfort in the pelvic area, lower back, or rectal area. This can range from mild discomfort to more severe, persistent pain. (3)
Recommended by naturopaths throughout Europe for more than 8 years, Prostate Pro formula has engaged a success rate of >98% (based on return customers). Its beneficial effects can be felt within days of administration.
Prostate Pro™ was developed to address the symptoms of prostate dysfunction: painful and frequent nocturnal urination, reduce the risk of inflammation and chronic conditions associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia, by addressing the root causes. This unique formulation includes 23 masterfully selected ingredients, with antibacterial and antifungal properties, that may also help improve male hormonal balance. But the most important ingredient in the formula is well acclaimed Graminex® flower pollen extract, a clinically studied ingredient proven to shrink the enlarged prostate.

Prostatic hyperplasia mainly affects men over 40.
Heart Health:
Cardiovascular health is paramount for overall well-being, as the heart pumps oxygen-rich blood throughout the body. As men age, the risk of heart-related conditions such as hypertension, coronary artery disease, and heart failure tends to increase.
Lifestyle factors, including diet, exercise, and stress management, play a pivotal role in maintaining heart health. Regular check-ups and screenings can help monitor cardiovascular function and detect issues early on.
Some symptoms of concern may include:
Chest Pain or Discomfort (Angina):
Symptoms: This can manifest as a feeling of pressure, tightness, or pain in the chest. It may also be described as a squeezing or burning sensation. The discomfort may radiate to the arms, back, neck, jaw, or stomach. (4)
Shortness of Breath:
Symptoms: Men experiencing heart health concerns may find it difficult to catch their breath, even during mild physical activity or at rest. This symptom may be accompanied by a feeling of tightness in the chest. (5)
Unexplained Fatigue:
Symptoms: Sudden or unexplained fatigue, especially if it is severe or occurs with exertion, can be an early sign of heart health concerns. This fatigue may not improve with rest and can interfere with daily activities. (6)
Nattokinase (NK) is, according to the National Institute of Health( NIH), a potent blood-clot dissolving protein produced by the bacterium Bacillus subtilis during the fermentation of soybeans to produce Natto. Extensively used in Japan, Korea and China to treat cardiovascular disease, it has been recently recognized by Western medicine for its potent fibrinolytic (anti-clotting/antithrombotic) capacity.
A blood clot (thrombus) is a gel like or semisolid clump of blood. When blood clots occur inside a vein or an artery and the body cannot dissolve it, it can become life-threatening as it could travel to different parts of the body such as heart, lungs, brain where it can block blood flow and cause a heart attack, pulmonary embolism or stroke.
Did you know
Nattokinase can be beneficial for hardening of the arteries, high blood pressure, hemorrhoids, and varicose veins.
Pain and Inflammation:
With age, the body may become more susceptible to various types of pain and inflammation. This could be due to factors such as decreased muscle mass, reduced bone density, and changes in joint flexibility. Common issues include inflammation, arthritis, back pain, digestive issues and joint-related problems.
Engaging in regular, low-impact exercise, maintaining a balanced diet, and incorporating strength and flexibility training can help mitigate these concerns.
Some symptoms of concern may include:
Joint Pain and Stiffness:
Symptoms: Inflammation in the joints can lead to pain, stiffness, and reduced range of motion. This may be indicative of conditions like arthritis or other inflammatory joint disorders. (7)
Persistent Fatigue:
Symptoms: Chronic fatigue, which may not improve with rest, can be an early sign of systemic inflammation. It may accompany various inflammatory conditions and autoimmune disorders. (8)
Joint Tenderness:
Symptoms: Inflammation in the joints can lead to swelling, warmth, and tenderness. This may occur alongside joint pain and is a common sign of inflammatory joint conditions. (9)
Serra-Plus Forte is a highly effective and fast acting anti-inflammatory and pain relief natural health product with a very successful historic track record of effectiveness.
Serra-Plus Forte contains maximum potency Serrapeptase (120,000 SU), a higher dosage of Boswellia serrata extract containing 65% Boswellic acids, high quality Curcumin extract standardized to 95% Curcuminoids, Stem-Bromelain, Papain, Ginger, and Piperine (Piper nigrum) for improved bioavailability.
Did you know
Serrapeptase is a proteolytic enzyme that can break down non-living tissue such as cellular debris and fibrin and therefore reduce inflammatory response including the removal of fluids secreted as a response to injury (swelling).
Prioritizing men's health is a crucial endeavor, particularly when it comes to Prostate Health, Heart Health, and Pain/Injury Support. By understanding how these concerns can worsen with age and taking proactive steps, men can significantly enhance their overall well-being and quality of life. Regular check-ups, a balanced lifestyle, and open communication with healthcare providers are fundamental in maintaining optimal health throughout the aging process.
Remember, it's never too late to take charge of your health and well-being.
