The super prostate formula

It comes to my attention that a dietary supplement called Supper Prostate Formula has come popular with many men.  I said this because this formula has attention not just from me, a layman in the medical field, but also regulatory action from federal authority like the federal trade commission and a verbal attack from an anti-alternative doctor named Stephen Barrett, M.D. who runs Quackwatch.com.

The super prostate formula, made by Physicians Choice, Inc., consists of many ingredients that may potentially provide various benefits such protective effects against prostate cancer as many studies have shown, but not yet gained FDA approval.

Two major sources of this dietary supplement are soy protein and isoflavones and Saw Palmetto Extract, which some evidence suggests help provent prostate cancer.

The company,run by Michael Teplitsky, M.D. could not claim that his super prostate formula can prevent or treat prostate cancer.  According to the Food and Drug Administration, anything that is claimed to be effective in preventing or treating any disease is a drug which needs to gain its approval for marketing.

Dr. Teplitsky of course could not claim benefits as shown in various studies.  One thing he is doing to win men's trust is to let you try his formula free for one month, and then you can decide whether or not you like it. If you want continue using his super prostate formula, you can order a 3-month supply of the dietary supplement for $79.90 plus shipping and handling.

According to Dr. Teplitsky, a medical doctor, all ingredients that have been known to help the prostate health are used in his super prostate formula.

By definition, the super prostate formula is a dietary supplement, meaning that all the ingredients in the dietary pills are supposed to be present in a nutritionally balanced diet. Although busy men may be the ones who can benefits most from the health supplement, most ingredients can be obtained from various foods.

Many ingredients protective against prostate disease that have been reported by foodconsumer.org include diet low in meat and fat, vitamin e and selecnium, vitamin d, green tea, lycopene, soy isoflavones, broccoli, cauliflower, salmon, omega-3 fatty acids (DHA and EPA), and  fruit/vegetables.

Foodconsumer.org is not affiliated with Dr. Teplitsky and its company and has no finacial tie with the business.  However, the writer believes that  the super prostate formula may provide some benefits to some men, particularly, those who often do not use a nutritionally balanced diet.
