Prostate problems affect almost 90% of males over age 50. Additionally, for many men the prostate problems begin at the age of 40. However, many men are excited about beta-sitosterol as a powerful remedy for the prostate.
Beta-sitosterol…Powerful Prostate Remedy?
Beta-sitosterol is plant sterol found in almost all plants. It is one of the main subcomponents of a group of plant sterols known as phytosterols. Beta-sitosterol is present in foods like soybeans, corn oil and wheat germ.
Recently, dense extracts of Beta-sitosterol have been studied for the purposes of decreasing cholesterol and the distress of BPH such as often and painful urination.
Beta-sitosterol And The Prostate
Beta Sitosterol has long been used by Europeans for prostate problems and now its popularity is growing among American men.
Is is and has been the most prescribed agent for an enlarged prostate for over twenty years in Europe. Beta-sitosterol is 3000 times stronger than the popular and effective Saw Palmetto and the efficacy of its effects on prostate health have been studied and published in the same medical journals that report on the efficacy of prescription medications.
Beta-sitosterol typically comes in mixtures with other phytosterols and also with substances such as pumpkin seed oil and saw palmetto extract.
In Europe, doses used for BPH are 20 to 130 milligrams of beta-sitosterol three times daily with meals. It is the common denominator found in saw palmetto, pygeum africanum, pumpkinseed oil and stinging nettles. However, the concentration of beta sitosterol in these herbs is very small.

2 German Clinical Studies
Two German clinical studies have confirmed the beneficial effects of beta-sitosterol in patients with prostate enlargement—
The first study conducted by Klippel and coworkers showed that using 130 mg per day of beta-sitosterol significantly improved the condition of the patients: the international prostate symptom score increased by 5.4 points, post-void residual urinary volume decreased and peak urinary flow rate increased [1].
Another double-blind trial involving 200 men with benign prostate enlargement showed that the intake of 20 mg of beta-sitosterol three times a day for six months significant improved urinary flow and other symptoms. Administration of the sterol had no effect on the volume of the prostate. Also this study concluded that significant improvement in symptoms and urinary flow parameters show the effectiveness of beta-sitosterol in the treatment of benign prostate enlargement.
Finally it should be understood that no one herb or supplement is a miracle cure. As effective as any supplement or remedy may be it is only part of a system of healing which includes correct eating habits, drinking plenty of water, getting plenty of exercise etc…
