2-pack value set: Prosta* Complex forte - with pumpkin seed extract, saw palmetto extract and nettle root - 2 x 90 capsules - from Unimedica

A finely tuned nutrient complex with zinc and selenium for men

Prosta* Komplex forte from Unimedica is a dietary supplement specially formulated to meet men's needs, containing zinc and selenium. While zinc contributes to normal fertility and reproduction and to the maintenance of normal testosterone levels in the blood, selenium protects cells from oxidative stress and contributes to normal spermatogenesis. These essential micronutrients are complemented by high-quality extracts from pumpkin seeds, saw palmetto fruits and nettle roots, as well as by vitamin E.

A single capsule of Prosta* Komplex forte provides 50% of the recommended daily intake of vitamin E and selenium each, and 25% of zinc (percentage of nutrient reference values in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011 (FIC)). The capsules are non-GMO and free from unwanted additives. They are also lactose-free, gluten-free and vegan.

Vitamin E, zinc and selenium protect cells from harmful, reactive oxygen species. Zinc and selenium support the immune system and numerous metabolic processes.

Foods that contain vitamin E, zinc and selenium

Main dietary sources of vitamin E are nuts and seeds, especially sunflower seeds, almonds and hazelnuts, vegetable oils such as sunflower oil, wheat germ oil and olive oil, green leafy vegetables like spinach and kale, as well as wholegrain products and oily fish.

Zinc is an essential trace element found in meat, especially beef and pork, as well as poultry such as chicken and turkey, and also in fish. Oysters are extremely rich in zinc. Plant sources of zinc include wholegrain products, legumes, nuts and seeds, particularly pumpkin seeds.

Selenium is another essential trace element found in seafood, especially tuna and prawns, in offal such as liver, in meat and poultry, in eggs, in nuts—particularly Brazil nuts, which are among the richest natural sources of selenium—and in wholegrain bread.

Why supplement with Prosta* Komplex forte?

Awareness of the dietary sources of these nutrients can help plan a balanced diet to meet daily requirements. However, with today’s eating habits and modern lifestyle it can be challenging to obtain sufficient amounts of these nutrients from food alone. Prosta* Komplex forte from Unimedica offers a convenient way to take these important nutrients in a balanced dose.

High-quality plant extracts complete the carefully designed formulation

Pumpkin seed extract is obtained from the seeds of the pumpkin. Pumpkin is a fruit originally native to Central and North America and is now cultivated worldwide. For centuries, pumpkin seeds have been valued by various cultures for their nutritional properties. They are not only rich in protein and healthy fats but also contain a variety of minerals and vitamins.

The saw palmetto (Serenoa repens) is a palm native to North America. It grows mainly in the coastal regions of the southeastern United States. The fruits of the saw palmetto are small and berry-like. They have a long history in the traditional medicine of North American indigenous peoples.

Nettle root extract is made from the root of the stinging nettle (Urtica dioica). It is native to Europe, Asia, North Africa and North America. The stinging nettle is known for its stinging hairs that cause a burning sensation on contact. Nettle has a long tradition in European folk medicine and is used both as a food and for herbal medicinal purposes.
