The prostate is a small gland specific to males, located beneath the urinary bladder and wrapped around the urethra. It is made of two lobes completely surrounded by an outer tissue layer. The main function of the prostate is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that, along with spermatozoa, constitutes semen. The rest of the seminal fluid is produced by the two seminal vesicles. The prostate also contains smooth muscles that help expel semen during ejaculation.
With the process of aging, it is quite common for the prostate gland to become enlarged. This is particularly the case in more mature dogs over the age of 8 years old. In this process the prostate enlarges, with the layer of tissue surrounding the prostate ceasing to expand. This causes the prostate gland to press against the urethra like a clamp on a garden hose. The bladder wall becomes thicker and may begin to contract even when it contains small amounts of urine, leading to more frequent urination.
Although the reason is not fully understood, cats do not routinely suffer from problems related to age related prostate enlargement.
Conventional prevention and treatment of BPH in pets is neutering. Neutering of young dogs before the onset of puberty will prevent normal development and growth of the prostate, and therefore most cases of prostate hypertrophy in later life. If a pet is neutered after prostate maturation, the prostate gland will shrink due to lack of testosterone.
The natural way
A lot can be done to support a healthy prostate. Diet and exercise remain the biggest factors contributing to a healthy lifestyle. A meal plan high in fresh vegetables and fruits, legumes (peas, beans, and lentils), fresh fish (such as salmon, sardines, mackerel and cod) will ensure adequate intake of essential fatty acids, important for organ functioning.
Avoiding fatty meats, excess salt, and hydrogenated oil will also go a long way in supporting the immune system. Physical exercise supports good circulation – helping to promote blood flow to all organs of the body, including the prostate.
Natural remedies have been used in traditional medicine for thousands of years to support the healthy functioning of the prostate and male reproductive system, while also acting as immune system tonics. In more recent times, research has confirmed this traditional wisdom.
There are now many published clinical studies demonstrating the ability of a range of herbs to support the healthy functioning of the prostate. (Berges RR, Windeler J, Trampisch HJ, et al. Lancet 1995;345:1529–32.)
What is ProsPet Drops?
While neutering may assist with the control and prevention of prostate problems in pets, for many people this is not nature's way and owners may be loathe taking such a step for their pets.
ProsPet Drops are a 100% safe and natural combination of natural ingredients especially chosen for their positive effect on prostate health in pets.
ProsPet Drops may also be used as an ongoing tonic for male dogs over the age of 8 to assist in the maintenance of prostate health and has an excellent record in maintaining optimal prostate health in male dogs, especially for those owners who do not want their pets neutered.
"Your ProsPet Drops really worked wonders for my dear Great Dane and I wanted to let you know how relieved I am. A few weeks ago he had seemed in terrible pain and had been struggling to defecate for a while. We finally found out that it was his prostate causing these problems and although the vet recommended we neutered him I was not happy with this idea. Within several days of starting him on ProsPet his bowel movements seemed to be more comfortable and now, 5 weeks later he is his normal, energetic self again. We were so happy to find a natural solution to his problem as it was terrible to see him in pain. Thank you!"Sandra F.
"Dear PetAlive Team- my Labrador was diagnosed with BPH after I noticed him walking strangely and looking like he was in such pain. We used your ProsPet Drops for him and he is so much better! Our vet cannot believe what a difference this formula has made and she is as impressed as we are! I love your website and have found several of your products invaluable in keeping my pets healthy without the use of dangerous drugs or surgery." Tyla
"ProsPet Drops saved my mother's dog. Last December, she called me in tears to tell me that her beloved 9-year old Pekingese dog apparently had a prostate [issue]… The poor baby couldn't defecate properly and was so miserable, he couldn't eat and lost a lot of weight. My mom didn't think he would make it past Christmas. Well, I went online and I came upon your website, ordered ProsPet drops, and my mom started using them immediately. Within A WEEK the dog improved, and he kept getting better every day: defecating properly, eating, gaining weight, running around and playing like a puppy! Well, it's now July and he's better than ever, happy and healthy. The vet saw him last month and said that he “didn't believe in that naturopathic stuff”, but that whatever my mom was doing, was working… The vet was truly astounded. We are just grateful that we have our dog back. A million thanks!!"Irma
