We are excited to announce the newly updated Male Plus formula, designed to support and enhance men’s health! This enhanced formula now includes Testofen® Fenugreek Extract, Pumpkin Seed Extract, zinc, copper, and selenium, along with the original ingredient, Tribulus Extract, at a higher potency. If you are looking for prostate, testosterone, and fertility support, Male Plus provides a non-hormonal, plant-based, trace mineral product for improved vitality.

Testofen® Fenugreek Extract

Fenugreek, an herb used in ancient Ayurvedic and traditional Chinese medicine for thousands of years, offers diverse benefits due to its rich phytochemical profile. It is a valuable new addition to Male Plus!

Fenugreek supports hormone modulatory activity for testosterone and androgens, benefitting both men’s and women’s health. It promotes metabolic health by managing blood sugar and cholesterol metabolism and healthy weight. It also supports antioxidant activity and anti-inflammatory mechanisms, and defends against fungi and bacteria and more.

Testofen® is a patented, standardized fenugreek extract (Trigonella foenum-graecum). It has been extensively studied in clinical trials, confirming its historical use and wide array of health benefits.

A recent clinical trial evaluated Testofen, in healthy men ages 43-70. Participants received 600 mg/day or a placebo for 12 weeks. Results showed a decrease in the overall “Aging Male Score” in those who received Testofen versus compared to placebo. Improvements were noted in sexual function with number of morning erections, increase in libido, and frequency of sexual activity. 

The World Journal of Men’s Health published results from an 8-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial on the effects of fenugreek. Results demonstrated significant improvement in testosterone levels, perceived stress tolerance, libido and erectile function, and healthy cholesterol levels

Additional studies confirmed a modest increase in testosterone levels in both blood and saliva of aging men, along with improvement in libido, without side effects.

Fenugreek has also been found to support women’s health, enhancing sexual drive in reproductive-age and menopausal women.

Tribulus Terrestris

Tribulus terrestris has traditionally been used to support sexual stamina and performance in many cultures. This herb supports erectile function by inducing vasodilation through nitric oxide pathways and improving blood flow within the genitals.

Tribulus terrestris also supports sexual function by activating antioxidant pathways Nrf2, reducing ROS free radical levels, and downregulating production of inflammatory markers such as NF-kappa B levels, TNF-a, MMP-9, and IL-1beta and other compounds. It may enhance sports recovery and reduces performance fatigue by enhancing testosterone levels. It may also support sperm motility and vitality.

Tribulus terrestris extract is more bioavailable for men’s health compared to the herbs ashwagandha and mucuna extract. Male Plus contains 250 mg of the highest potency Tribulus terrestris extract, standardized to 45% furostanol saponins for maximum efficacy.

Pumpkin Seed Extract

Pumpkin seeds have been used for centuries to support prostate, bladder, and kidney health. Now included in Male Plus, pumpkin seeds provide phytonutrients and polyphenols shown to promote normal prostate cell differentiation and growth, without affecting steroid hormone levels.

A one-year randomized, placebo-controlled study in men ages 50-80 years demonstrated the safety and efficacy of pumpkin seed extract for prostate health. Results showed functional improvement in prostate-urinary flow, with fewer nighttime trips to the bathroom, and enhanced quality of life.

Furthermore, pumpkin seed extract increases glutathione levels and autophagy activity, thus providing antioxidant and cellular cleanup support in the prostate. These seeds provide modest amounts of nutrients including protein, fatty acids, vitamin A, C, D, B3, folate, zinc, copper, iron, magnesium, potassium, manganese, phosphorous, beta-carotenes, lutein, zeaxanthin, and other phytonutrients.

Zinc and Selenium

A healthy prostate gland accumulates the highest levels of zinc compared to other soft tissues in the body. Zinc is especially important for prostate health as it protect against oxidative stress and is required for DNA repair. The prostate uses zinc and specialized zinc receptors to produce prostate fluid and maintain essential metabolic functions within the gland. Additionally, zinc is required for semen production, as well as sperm motility and maturation.

Zinc is involved with the activation of over 300 enzymes throughout the body. Dietary intake is often marginal in both plant-based and Western diets, and is depleted by numerous medications. Research suggests 30-40 mg of zinc per day from diet and supplementation provides an optimal range of support for prostate health.

Selenium, another vital trace mineral, works synergistically with zinc to protect and support prostate function. Together, these two nutrients provide powerful antioxidant support involving SOD and glutathione pathways. They influence cell signaling mechanisms and apoptosis, helping to inhibit proliferation and cellular migration.

Selenium and zinc are required for various protein functions involved in DNA repair and integrity. They also downregulate and inhibit the production of inflammatory compounds like TNF-a, COX, and LOX. Additionally, they enhance the immune response, aid in preservation of telomere length, and much more.

Copper

Copper, another essential trace mineral, works in a balance with zinc to support male fertility and prostate health. High intake of zinc, dietary fiber, and low protein intake can deplete copper levels over time. Copper is a necessary element required for cell division, supporting sperm production, and providing antioxidant support in the prostate.

Copper is present in prostate and seminal fluids, playing a key role in male fertility. Together with zinc and selenium, copper contributes to detoxification pathways that process heavy metals and environmental toxins. Maintaining the right balance of copper is vital, as both excess and deficiency can negatively impact men’s health and fertility. Zinc, selenium, and copper are valuable new additions to Male Plus.

A Safe and Effective Formula for Men’s Health

Age and stress-related decline, environmental toxins, and other factors can affect testosterone levels, prostate health, and fertility. Male Plus offers a safe, effective, plant and trace mineral formula to help offset declining testosterone levels while providing antioxidant and other protective agents of support for the prostate. Free of aggressive stimulants or hormones, it’s ideal for daily use and long-term men’s health support.
