Nettle root extract 60 Capsules
Stinging nettle root extract, derived from Urtica dioica, has long been used in traditional herbal medicine to support prostate and urinary tract health, particularly in aging men. Unlike the more commonly used nettle leaf, the root contains unique lignans and phytosterols believed to influence hormone metabolism—specifically by modulating the activity of sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) and inhibiting aromatase. These actions may help maintain a healthy balance of androgens, supporting prostate function and reducing the severity of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Clinical studies suggest nettle root may promote improved urinary flow, reduced urgency, and decreased night-time urination. As part of a comprehensive men’s wellness protocol, nettle root offers a plant-based, hormone-sensitive approach to long-term prostate support.
🎯 Who Benefits Most?
- Men over 40 with mild to moderate BPH symptoms
- Anyone concerned with urinary hesitancy, dribbling, or frequent urination
- Men wanting hormonal balance without synthetic hormone boosters
- Those stacking Saw Palmetto, Beta Sitosterol, or Pygeum for full-spectrum prostate support

🌿 Nettle Root: The Unsung Hero of Prostate & Hormonal Health
Balance your hormones. Support your prostate. Naturally.
🔍 What Is Nettle Root?
Nettle Root (Urtica dioica radix) is derived from the underground parts of the stinging nettle plant, widely used in European phytotherapy for managing benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and androgen metabolism. Unlike the more familiar nettle leaf (used for allergy or joint support), the root targets hormone regulation and urinary function — making it a key player in male wellness formulations.
📌 Clinically studied for BPH symptom relief, hormone modulation, and sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) inhibition.
⚗️ Key Benefits & Mechanisms of Action
1. BPH Symptom Relief & Urinary Flow Support
- Inhibits 5-alpha-reductase, the enzyme that converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT) — a major contributor to prostate enlargement
- Reduces inflammation and oxidative stress within the prostate
- Improves bladder emptying, reduces nocturia (night-time urination), and increases urinary flow rate
🧪 Lopatkin et al., 2007: Nettle root extract significantly improved urinary flow and reduced residual bladder volume in BPH patients over 6 months.
🔬 Safarinejad, 2005: Nettle root alone or in combination improved IPSS scores, a standardized symptom scale for prostate health.
2. Hormone Modulation & SHBG Inhibition
- Blocks SHBG — a protein that binds testosterone and makes it inactive
- Helps increase free (bioavailable) testosterone without affecting total testosterone levels
- Particularly useful in middle-aged and older men where SHBG levels rise and reduce hormonal activity
📊 Nettle root doesn’t increase testosterone production but enhances its activity by freeing up bound hormone.
3. Anti-Inflammatory & Antioxidant Activity
- Suppresses pro-inflammatory cytokines like TNF-α and IL-6
- Contains compounds such as lignans and sterols with immunomodulatory effects
- Offers supportive protection against chronic inflammation in the prostate and urinary tract
🧬 Riehemann et al., 1999: Nettle root extract inhibited NF-κB activation in immune cells — a master switch for inflammation.

📰Inside the Mission: Prostate Aid CIC — A Modern Movement in Men’s Health
Empowering Men Through Science, Supplements, and Community
“No man
should suffer in silence.”
That’s the rallying cry behind Prostate Aid CIC, a pioneering
not-for-profit initiative redefining how men approach prostate health. In an
era where conversations about men’s well-being are still too often muted by
stigma or neglect, Prostate Aid CIC is emerging as a vital voice — one that
blends clinical science with holistic solutions to help men take control of
their health journey.
But this isn’t just about supplements. It’s a deeper story — about empowerment, education, and evidence-based action.
🔬 Where Clinical Science Meets Natural Wisdom
The core mission of Prostate Aid CIC is to bridge the gap between conventional
urology and the growing body of evidence supporting nutritional, botanical, and lifestyle interventions for prostate wellness. With a portfolio of rigorously selected supplements and a robust educational platform, the organisation offers a dual path: evidence-informed natural support alongside medically recognised advice.
Whether you’re navigating Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), chronic prostatitis, or seeking to reduce prostate cancer risk, Prostate Aid CIC aims to be your go-to resource — not just for products, but for answers. Backed by references to clinical studies, their articles explore everything from Modified Citrus Pectin’s detox potential to the hormone-regulating synergy of Tongkat Ali, Maca, and Panax Ginseng.
“We aren’t here to sell hope. We’re here to sell what’s been studied.”
— Prostate Aid CIC Spokesperson
🌿 The Supplement Line: Functional Formulas with Purpose
Prostate Aid CIC’s product range is carefully curated to reflect the latest nutritional science. Each formulation is designed to target specific biological pathways involved in prostate and men’s health — whether through hormonal modulation, anti-inflammatory activity, or antioxidant support.
✴️ Featured Products:
- Peon (Saw Palmetto Complex): A premium formula combining beta-sitosterol, zinc, and nettle root to support urinary flow and androgen balance.
- Tongkat Ali Complex with Maca & Ginseng:
Crafted for vitality, hormonal health, and mood, this trio has been dubbed
“the adaptogenic powerhouse.” - Modified Citrus Pectin: Targeting cellular detox and cancer-prevention pathways, with evidence showing promise in inhibiting prostate cancer metastasis.
Each product is accompanied by detailed guides, clear scientific references, and disclaimers — ensuring transparency and informed decision-making.
📚 Education First: The Monthly Men’s Health Plans
One of the most innovative aspects of the CIC’s work is its Prostate Health MonthlyGuide — a structured, six-month program combining diet, exercise, and lifestyle adjustments with supplement support. Each month zeroes in on a different health pillar, from circulation to hormonal balance, anti-inflammatory eating to detoxification.
These guides are not generic wellness fluff. They're research-led, actionable blueprints that integrate Mediterranean-style diets, low-sugar smoothies, resistance training, and prostate-specific recipes like zinc-packed pumpkin stews or lycopene-rich tomato juices.
“We write as if we’re talking to our own brothers, dads, or sons.”
— Editorial Team, Prostate Aid CIC
🧬 Evidence, Not Hype
The team at Prostate Aid CIC takes a firm stand against misleading claims that are so common in the supplement industry. With an audit-like eye for compliance, the content avoids “miracle cure” language and instead leans into well-documented pathways like:
- 5-alpha-reductase inhibition for hormone regulation
- COX-2 inflammatory markers targeted by turmeric and quercetin
- Circulatory support through polyphenol-rich
extracts like pine bark and green tea - Synergistic nutrient bioavailability enhanced by form selection (e.g., chelated zinc)
This clinical-meets-consumer approach ensures that every article, blog post, or product description serves both educational and ethical standards.
🤝 A CIC With a Mission
What sets Prostate Aid CIC apart is its Community Interest Company status. This isn't a venture capital-backed brand or private label hustle. All profits are reinvested into men’s health awareness, research dissemination, and subsidised support for vulnerable groups. The community benefits, not shareholders.
That includes accessible pricing, downloadable health guides, and plans to collaborate with health professionals across the UK. As the team puts it:
“Men’s health isn’t a luxury. It’s a right.”
🧭 What’s Next?
With rising interest in integrative medicine and the increasing burden of prostate-related disorders in an aging male population, Prostate Aid CIC is perfectly positioned to lead a shift in how we think about prevention, performance, and prostate health.
Whether you’re a man over 40, a caregiver, or a health practitioner, this is a space to watch — and a mission worth joining.
