Amid rising concerns about increased rates of prostate cancer in men, university studies have been conducted into the prevention and treatment of this life-threatening disease. The results have shown that a variety of common plant extracts may have beneficial properties for men's prostate health. A description of these medicinal plant extracts is provided here. Abstracts of these studies are available at the website www.ProstatePh.com
White Button Mushroom
In a study conducted by the Beckman Research Institute, the extract of the white button mushroom (Agaricus bisporus), an edible mushrooms, exhibited powerful cancer-fighting properties. The extract of this mushroom exhibited powerful anti-oxidant properties and successfully inhibited the growth of prostate tumor cells and ultimately caused tumor cell death in vitro and in vivo in experimental white mice. The results of the study support the recommendation of the use of white button mushroom extract as a dietary supplement in men with increased prostate cancer risk.
