Men’s Prostate Health 101 The prostate gland, located directly beneath the bladder, surrounds the urethra, which drains urine from the bladder. In healthy young men, the prostate is the size of a walnut. By the time a man reaches age 40, the prostate can grow to apricot size. By age 60, the size can be that of a lemon. As the prostate gland grows larger, it can compress the urethra, resulting in weak urinary flow, leading to frequent urination. As the urethra gets further compressed, the bladder wall becomes thicker, eventually weakens and loses its ability to empty completely, creating a sensation of constantly needing to urinate. Some men never experience any problems with their prostate, but for others, this is literally a growing problem that seriously affects their quality of life. Many men, especially after 40 years of age, seek natural remedies and dietary supplements to support prostate health. However, it appears that while certain herbal remedies may be helpful for some men, many men find them to be ineffective. Clearly, there is a need for an effective natural product to help support a healthy prostate gland as men naturally age. Fortunately, cranberries can also offer support for a healthy prostate gland. † These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
