Peenuts Product Details: |
| |
|
|
PEENUTS ®, is physician tested and physician endorsed |
|
PEENUTS® is a unique, synergistic, proprietary blend of
vitamins, minerals, herbs, and amino acids; Peenuts, evaluated in 4 independent studies, demonstrated the efficacy
of the product associated with the reduction of EPS (Expressed Prostatic Secretion, a reduction of the PSA (Prostate
Specific Antigen) and improvement in urinary symptoms. |
|
PEENUTS is the only prostate nutritional product in the
world to demonstrate effectiveness versus Prostatitis based on the evaluation of EPS (Expressed Prostatic Secretion)
(ref: Review of United States Patents) |
|
Peenuts, in a Prospective Prostate Cancer Study,
demonstrated a reduction in EPS of 77.5% which resulted in a decrease in PSA of 58%; Translation-all men with
Prostate Cancer should be on Peenuts |
|
The clinical data on Peenuts was shown to be
statistically and clinically significant (See study results for statistical analysis); 100% of patients improved
their AUA symptom score by an average of 70%, EPS (Expressed Prostatic Secretion) improved by an average of 69% and
PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) improved by an average of 50% |
|
Plain and simple; If you get up 1-2 times per night to
urinate - YOU NEED PEENUTS. PEENUTS is intended to assist men with voiding symptoms. See Urinary Clinical Benefits
Study Results |
|
If your PSA is ≥ 1 ng/ml, PEENUTS ®, is intended to lower
the number. Failure to lower the number may be the best first sign that Prostate Cancer looms |
|
The larger the prostate, the more effective the product.
The greater the symptoms, the greater the effect. Men with large prostates and significant symptoms did well on this
product, in clinical evaluation. |
|
While most studies look to six months to one year to
evaluate their product's effectiveness, PEENUTS ®, has been shown to improve symptoms dramatically, in as little as
three days to six weeks, in most cases. |
|
All manufacturers are encouraged to perform scientific,
double-blind studies to validate their herbal products and formulas for efficacy, safety and clinical benefit.
|
|
In a randomized pilot study related to Prostatitis,
PEENUTS demonstrated significant advantage when compared to the three leading antibiotics.(6) The enthusiasm of the
results of the pilot data has spawned interest in a comprehensive multi-centered study format, to formally evaluate
antibiotics and the premier prostate nutritional product PEENUTS; Two end points to the study will be the degree of
resolution of Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS) and the improvement of the Expressed Prostatic Secretion (EPS), as
they relate to Prostatitis |
|
PEENUTS received its' patent status recognition, as a
unique and effective formula for Prostatitis, in March 2001 |
|
PEENUTS is endorsed by physicians (Urologists, family
practitioners and Oncologists), Pharmacists, and the prestigious Watson Clinic, as a first line prostate disease
option, and is the intelligent choice for prostate health validated by results. |
|
"PEENUTS provides assistance in voiding when you need it
the most." -- Nick Poltawec, M.D. |

Prostate Disease Facts: |
|
Prostatitis is the most under-diagnosed, mistreated and
misunderstood urologic disease process with untold negative sequelae (a secondary consequence or result). |
|
"While the etiology of Chronic Prostatitis is largely
unknown, current diagnostic techniques are difficult or nonspecific and treatment is largely empiric and often
unsuccessful."(1) |
| |
The symptoms of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) and
Prostatitis are similar; Common symptoms are: |
| |
• |
Nighttime voiding (Urination) |
| |
• |
Incomplete voiding |
| |
• |
Frequency of urination |
| |
• |
Urgency of urination |
| |
• |
An interrupted stream |
| |
• |
A decreased stream (compared to age 30 or 10 years prior) |
| |
• |
The need to strain or push to urinate |
|
The treatments for prostate enlargement (BPH) and
prostate infection are often entirely different, yet they are treated the same by most physicians, including
urologists. |
|
Prostatitis is the #1 reason that the Prostate Specific
Antigen (PSA) rises. Before you agree to an ultrasound and prostate biopsy, get checked for Prostatitis with an EPS.
If you don't, statistics show that 70-80% of men will have a biopsy needlessly, as it will be negative. |
|
The PSA II (% free PSA) is a simple blood test that will
improve the predictability of the PSA blood test to diagnose Prostate Cancer and benign events. This test is
recommended for all men with a PSA of > 2.5 ng/ml – 10 ng/ml. |
|
PSA may be elevated secondary to: |
| |
• |
BPH |
| |
• |
Prostatitis |
| |
• |
Ejaculation within 48 hours prior to the blood test |
| |
• |
Prostate cancer |
| |
• |
Atrophy of the prostate |
| |
• |
Recent urethral and/or prostate manipulation |
| |
• |
Prostate massage |
|
78% of primary care physicians and 41% of urologists
believe that Prostatitis has an infectious origin.(2) Unfortunately, this is not true. Antibiotics are only
indicated for use when a bacterial infection is present and documented by a Culture & Sensitivity of urine, EPS or
ejaculate. |
|
Antibiotic usage promotes bacterial resistance, thereby
making antibiotics potentially less effective the second time around. It is well known that antibiotics have a
suppressive effect on the immune system, therefore, for the most part, antibiotics should be used in life or death
situations only, or when deemed appropriate by your physician. |
|
Prostatitis negatively affects the quality of life of
approximately 50% of all adult men at some point in their lifetime.(3) My personal data suggests that virtually all
adult men suffer this malady. Prostatitis is documented by a PSA of ≥ 1 ng/ml. |
|
In 1991 677,000 visits to American urologists were
attributed to Prostatitis. (4) Prostatitis potentially affects sexually active men of all ages. |
|
According to data from the national ambulatory medical
care survey (NAMCS), Prostatitis was the listed diagnosis in approximately 2 million annual physician visits; the
majority of these visits were due to Chronic Prostatitis.(5) |
|
Physicians see as many visits secondary to Prostatitis
as they do for the diagnosis of prostate enlargement (BPH). |
|
Chronic Prostatitis has a serious impact on patient
quality of life and daily function. According to the sickness impact profile, Chronic Prostatitis had mean scores of
disability and sickness similar to persons suffering from Myocardial Infarction (heart attack), Angina (cardiac
chest pain) or Crohn's Disease (inflammation of the bowel).(7) |
|
According to a survey by Alexander & Trissel, 78% of
respondents suffering from Prostatitis admitted to bouts of depression, suicidal thoughts, or the need to miss work
due to symptoms.(8) |
|
PEENUTS is endorsed by physicians (urologists, family
practitioners and oncologists), pharmacists, and the prestigious Watson Clinic, as a first line prostate disease
option, and is the intelligent choice for prostate health. |
|
Approximately 200,000 new cases of Prostate Cancer are
diagnosed yearly, while almost 30,000 men die from Prostate Cancer. Virtually all cases of Prostate Cancer are
associated with Prostatitis. Does Prostatitis lead to Prostate Cancer? It is believed that Prostatitis is the major
risk factor that creates the pool through cellular oxidation from which Prostate Cancer selects. Further studies
will enhance this thought process. Meanwhile, until proven otherwise, Prostatitis causes Prostate Cancer.
|
|
"Saw palmetto is commonly used in Europe to assist men
with voiding dysfunction. I believe that saw palmetto works better in combination formulas than alone." -- Ronald E.
Wheeler, M.D. |
|
Does Prostatitis lead to Prostate Cancer? Yes, according
the American Association of Cancer Research (AACR), Prostatitis is the precursor to Prostate Cancer. Independently,
this has also been demonstrated by Bill Nelson, MD, PHD, Professor of Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. Prostatitis
causes cellular oxidative stress creating a highway for eventual Prostate Cancer; the bottom line is- Prostatitis
evolves into Prostate Cancer; |
|
The majority of men diagnosed with Prostate Cancer do
not know their PSA number. What's your number? Check your PSA and lipid levels (cholesterol, HDH and LDL, and
