in 11 Healthy Male Volunteers
OBJECTIVE
The objective of this open label study was to determine the clinical effects of Prostate Fitness on symptom management in males with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
Less Waking Up to Urinate
STUDY DESIGN
11 male volunteers aged 45 to 79 and diagnosed with benign prostatic hyperplasia were given 2 softgels of Prostate Fitness daily, and were monitored 4 times over the course of 30 days to assess symptom change in urinary health by their overseeing physician. Three physicians in separate clinics participated in the study. Men were grouped based on subjective symptom severity at the start: low, moderate, high, and severe, based on intensity and frequency of symptoms.
