AIM ReassureSP (NZ) for prostate and bladder health

A nutritional supplement primarily supporting prostate health in men. A concentrated pollen extract that has been shown by scientific study to have a mild beneficial effect on urologic symptoms of benign enlargement of the prostate.

Saw Palmetto Berry Extract
Traditional saw palmetto has been used for general wellness for the past 200 years, and recent research in relation to saw palmetto extract and prostate health has been extensive. The saw palmetto oil extract found in ReAssure SP is derived from the berry of the saw palmetto tree found in the southeastern United States. The extract is rich in fatty acids and phytosterols, which are a type of lipid found in plant cell membranes. AIM’s saw palmetto oil contains sitosterol and campesterol. These two plant sterols may block the absorption of cholesterol through the intestine[1].

Many poor quality supplements use saw palmetto berry powder instead of the berry extract in order to keep costs down but, in turn, this alternative only provides a fraction of the benefits. As men age, they may experience inflammation of theprostate gland (prostatitis) or benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH – non-cancerous prostate enlargement). According to figures from the Cleveland Clinic, half of all men will have symptoms of BPH by the age of 50, and that number increases to 80 percent by the age of 60. Although the exact cause of BPH is unknown, studies indicate that it may relate to testosterone’s conversion to a potent hormone called dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Overproduction of DHT has been linked to enlargement of the prostate. Saw palmetto suppresses DHT activity by inhibiting 5-alpha-reductase, the enzyme responsible for conversion of testosterone into DHT. Furthermore, the Journal of the American Medical Association reported that 320 mg a day of saw palmetto extract improves urinary symptoms as effectively as prescription drugs. ReAssure SP provides 320 mg of saw palmetto extract standardized to 85 percent fatty acid content per serving.

Pumpkin Seed Oil
Some European countries have been using pumpkin seed extracts to treat prostate symptoms because they contain ß-sitosterol (plant sterol) that inhibits DHT. This is a similar suppression to that obtained from saw palmetto. A study found that more than 80 percent of patients taking 300 mg of pumpkin seed oil daily experienced improvement in bladder function, stronger urinary flow, and reduction in the frequency of nighttime urination. The seeds also contain nutrients that can aid in bone health and ease the symptoms of arthritis.

The pumpkin seed oil used in the ReAssure SP formula is pure virgin oil produced only by cold-press and filtration without using any solvents, additives, or other synthetic agents.

Zinc Citrate
Clinical evidence indicates that cancerous prostate cells contain less zinc than healthy prostate cells and that healthy men have much more zinc in the prostate than in other soft organs, such as the liver and kidneys. Although the reason for this is not clearly understood, zinc’s natural abundance in the prostate of healthy men suggests it is an important natural defense.

Studies have shown that zinc inhibits 5-alpha-reductase (similar in action to saw palmetto and pumpkin seed extract) and the secretion of some estrogens (also linked to prostate issues). In addition to prostate benefits, zinc also is an essential component in the body’s enzyme process, acting as a stimulant for nearly 100 different enzymes. ReAssure SP provides 15 mg of zinc (as zinc citrate) per serving, which is 100 percent of the daily recommended intake.

Lycopene
Lycopene, a carotenoid, may hinder the growth of prostate cancer cells. Harvard University conducted a six-year study of 50,000 men and concluded that those who ate foods containing high amounts of lycopene were up to 45 percent less likely to develop prostate cancer.

As an antioxidant, lycopene helps neutralize free radicals that can contribute to prostate cancer and other cancers. ReAssure SP provides 5 mg of natural lycopene (from tomato extract) per serving.

Can ReAssure SP benefit women as well?
Yes. The ingredients of ReAssure SP may have benefits for both men and women. Saw palmetto can promote urinary health by reducing bladder infections and improving urine flow. Saw palmetto may also increase female libido.

Can I take ReAssure SP in conjunction with other AIM products?
Yes. ReAssure SP can be used in combination with all AIM products and contributes to the overall health of our bodies.

How else can I help my prostate?
Prostate health can be affected by nutrition. Drinking adequate water and avoiding caffeine, alcohol, and spicy foods can help, as does nutritional supplementation. The powerful antioxidant properties of the mineral selenium and the vitamins A (beta carotene), C, and E may be instrumental in protecting the prostate gland. AIM Proancynol® 2000 contains selenium; AIM BarleyLife® contains the vitamins A, C, and E; AIM Just Carrots® contains vitamin A; and AIM CellSparc 360® contains tocotrienols, a form of vitamin E. The carotenoid lycopene, also in AIM Proancynol® 2000, has been shown to be a more potent inhibitor of human cancer cells than all other carotenoids. Enlarged prostate tissue contains elevated levels of cholesterol and its metabolites, so it is advisable to watch cholesterol levels.

Selenium may also be helpful in this regard because it has been shown to increase HDL cholesterol levels. Cultures that consume high-fat, high-sugar diets have higher rates of prostate problems; so a low-fat, low-sugar diet is recommended. Finally, moderate exercise, such as walking, can be helpful, as can hydrotherapy: sitting in a hot bath for 15 to 20 minutes. Consider adding AIM Cell Wellness Restorer™ for a relaxed, rejuvenated feeling.

I have been using AIM ReAssure® for about eight months now with great results. When I started using AIM ReAssure®, I saw immediate results. Within hours, I felt better and trips to the bathroom were cut to a third of what they were. This is the closest I have been to normal as I remember it. I have no discomfort at all, and I make two or three trips to the bathroom during a normal day and a couple of trips during the night. My dad has had radical surgery, and he still has problems. My grandfather died of prostrate cancer—so it is in my family. I can hardly wait to be checked again, because I know the results will be better and hopefully no enlarged prostrate as in the past. I’m really sold on the results of AIM ReAssure®.

I gave AIM ReAssure® to a customer with elevated PSA. At his next check-up, three months later, the PSA level had gone down. On the next checkup the PSA level was below normal. He has been on AIM ReAssure® for over a year with levels at normal range.
