Sorry, this item is temporarily unavailable from the manufacturer until about mid-July, 2024.

Garden of Life's Dr. Formulated Prostate+ features Flowens, a clinically studied form of organically grown cranberries which has been shown to be able to support normal urine flow, plus a 15-strain probiotic along with a premium Organic Acacia prebiotic fiber to support them, and a whole food source of vitamin D3 (which might be able to help prevent urinary tract infections).

Product Notes:

In addition to helping the digestive system, probiotics may help with prostate issues by helping reduce inflammation, strengthening the immune system, and functioning as natural antibiotics in their own right.

Once we reach our mid-40s, many men are subject to a cluster of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) such as weak flow, incomplete emptying/voiding, and the frequent need to go, both during the day and seemingly especially at night, often due to the condition known as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), or the enlargement of the prostate gland. This new Doctor Formulated product is designed to help with all those problems, and more.

Health Canada Natural Product Number: 80067456. Formulated by Dr. David Perlmutter, an Expert in the Human Microbiome.
