Urinary Symptom Clinical Benefits
Urinary Symptoms
While Urinary Symptoms historically have been attributed to an enlarging prostate, the primary cause of urinary
symptoms is inflammation of the prostate or Prostatitis (Reference: NIH Presentation - 1999).
While pharmaceutical companies have developed drugs to decrease urinary symptoms, they are commonly associated with
side effects. Peenuts® is an all-natural remedy that improves urinary symptoms by 70.1% (Average) when taken at 2-3
capsules daily. (please use links on right for more)
Facts that may change your life forever:
|
- In 2004 approximately 230,000 new cases of Prostate Cancer were
diagnosed; Reference: American Cancer Society
- In 2004 approximately 32,000 men died from this disease; Reference:
American Cancer Society
- PEENUTS® is physician tested and physician endorsed
- PEENUTS® is a unique, synergistic, proprietary blend of vitamins,
minerals, herbs, and amino acids. It has undergone a prospective, randomized double-blind study with placebo
control.
|
| Here's what our study showed: |
The study was statistically and clinically significant (See study results for statistical analysis)
- In the study, 100% of patients improved their AUA symptom score. **
- 50% of patients improved in 6 out of 7 categories (86% improvement).
69% of patients improved in 6 or 7 out of 7 categories.
- The larger the prostate, the more effective the product. The greater
the symptoms, the greater the effect. Men with large prostates and significant symptoms did well on this product, in
clinical evaluation.
- Plain and simple; If you get up 1-2 times per night to urinate - YOU
NEED PEENUTS. PEENUTS is intended to assist men with voiding symptoms.
- If your PSA is ≥ 1 ng/ml, PEENUTS is intended to lower the number.
Failure to lower the number may be the best first sign that Prostate Cancer looms.
- While most studies look to six months to one year to evaluate their
product’s effectiveness, PEENUTS has been shown to improve symptoms dramatically, in as little as three days to six
weeks, in most cases.
- All manufacturers are encouraged to perform scientific, double-blind
studies to validate their herbal products and formulas for efficacy, safety and clinical benefit.
- Prostatitis is the most under-diagnosed, mistreated and
misunderstood urologic disease process with untold negative sequelae (a secondary consequence or result).
- "While the etiology of Chronic Prostatitis is largely unknown,
current diagnostic techniques are difficult or nonspecific and treatment is largely empiric and often
unsuccessful."(1)
- The symptoms of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) and Prostatitis
are similar; Common symptoms are:
- Nighttime voiding (Urination)
- Incomplete voiding
- Frequency of urination
- Urgency of urination
- An interrupted stream
- A decreased stream (compared to age 30 or 10 years prior)
- The need to strain or push to urinate
- The treatments for prostate enlargement (BPH) and prostate infection
are often entirely different, yet they are treated the same by most physicians, including urologists.
- Prostatitis is the #1 reason that the Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA)
rises. Before you agree to an ultrasound and prostate biopsy, get checked for Prostatitis with an EPS. If you don’t,
statistics show that 70-80% of men will have a biopsy needlessly, as it will be negative
- The PSA II (% free PSA) is a simple blood test that will improve the
predictability of the PSA blood test to diagnose Prostate Cancer and benign events. This test is recommended for all
men with a PSA of > 2.5 ng/ml – 10 ng/ml.
- PSA may be elevated secondary to:
- BPH
- Prostatitis
- Ejaculation within 48 hours prior to the blood test
- Prostate cancer
- Atrophy of the prostate
- Recent urethral and/or prostate manipulation
- Prostate massage
- 78% of primary care physicians and 41% of urologists believe that
Prostatitis has an infectious origin.(2) Unfortunately, this is not true. Antibiotics are only indicated for use
when a bacterial infection is present and documented by a Culture & Sensitivity of urine, EPS or ejaculate.
- Antibiotic usage promotes bacterial resistance, thereby making
antibiotics potentially less effective the second time around. It is well known that antibiotics have a suppressive
effect on the immune system, therefore, for the most part, antibiotics should be used in life or death situations
only, or when deemed appropriate by your physician.
- Prostatitis negatively affects the quality of life of approximately
50% of all adult men at some point in their lifetime.(3) My personal data suggests that virtually all adult men
suffer this malady. Prostatitis is documented by a PSA of ≥ 1 ng/ml.
- In 1991 677,000 visits to American urologists were attributed to
Prostatitis. (4) Prostatitis potentially affects sexually active men of all ages.
- According to data from the national ambulatory medical care survey (NAMCS),
Prostatitis was the listed diagnosis in approximately 2 million annual physician visits; the majority of these
visits were due to Chronic Prostatitis.(5)
- Physicians see as many visits secondary to Prostatitis as they do
for the diagnosis of prostate enlargement (BPH)
- In a randomized pilot study related to Prostatitis, the prostate
nutritional product PEENUTS (an all natural formula) has shown significant advantage when compared to the three
leading antibiotics.(6) The enthusiasm of the results of the pilot data has spawned interest in a comprehensive
multi-centered study format, to formally evaluate antibiotics and the premier prostate nutritional product PEENUTS.
Two end points to the study will be the degree of resolution of Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS) and the
improvement of the Expressed Prostatic Secretion (EPS), as they relate to Prostatitis
- PEENUTS received its' patent status recognition, as a unique and
effective formula for Prostatitis, in March 2001
- Chronic Prostatitis has a serious impact on patient quality of life
and daily function. According to the sickness impact profile, Chronic Prostatitis had mean scores of disability and
sickness similar to persons suffering from Myocardial Infarction (heart attack), Angina (cardiac chest pain) or
Crohn's Disease (inflammation of the bowel).(7)
- According to a survey by Alexander & Trissel, 78% of respondents
suffering from Prostatitis admitted to bouts of depression, suicidal thoughts, or the need to miss work due to
symptoms.(8)
- PEENUTS is endorsed by physicians (urologists, family practitioners
and oncologists), pharmacists, and the prestigious Watson Clinic, as a first line prostate disease option, and is
the intelligent choice for prostate health.
- "Saw palmetto is commonly used in Europe to assist men with voiding
dysfunction. I believe that saw palmetto works better in combination formulas than alone." -- Ronald E. Wheeler,
M.D.
- "PEENUTS provides assistance in voiding when you need it the most."
-- Nick Poltawec, M.D.
- Approximately 200,000 new cases of Prostate Cancer are diagnosed
yearly, while almost 30,000 men die from Prostate Cancer. Virtually all cases of Prostate Cancer are associated with
Prostatitis. Does Prostatitis lead to Prostate Cancer? It is believed that Prostatitis is the major risk factor that
creates the pool through cellular oxidation from which Prostate Cancer selects. Further studies will enhance this
thought process. Meanwhile, until proven otherwise, Prostatitis causes Prostate Cancer.
- Get educated, become proactive, and take advantage of the PEENUTS
formula before it's too late.
- The best first step to improved education on Prostatitis and
Prostate Cancer is your interest. If this matters to you, browse the web at www.TheProstateCenter.com,
www.PEENUTS.com, www.PreferredHealthFoundation.org, and www.RonaldWheeler.com.
- Learn the facts for yourself and then decide if prostate nutrition
makes sense for you. If prostate nutrition can change the incidence of Prostate Cancer, maybe we should all take it.
To improve your understanding of PEENUTS or to participate in a study of one, get your PSA, track it, and get
started on PEENUTS
- The majority of men diagnosed with Prostate Cancer do not know their
PSA number. What’s your number? Check your PSA and lipid levels (cholesterol, HDH and LDL, and triglycerides, with a
risk assessment) Order today: Your data is privacy protected.

* Consistent with herbal formulas, the FDA has not reviewed or endorsed this product. Men with voiding symptoms
are always encouraged to consult with their physician.
- ** The AUA Symptom Score evaluates a man's voiding abilities.
Symptom Score includes: nocturia, frequency, intermittency, incomplete emptying, stream size, urgency, and the
need to strain.
