After reaching 40 years old, men's prostate will gradually enlarge, which will lead to hyperplasia of prostate gland. The hyperplasia of prostate gland is a common disease among senior males. It is caused by the abnormity and proliferation of the prostate. The onset is mostly after 50 years old. With the increase of age, the incidence of the disease rises. It has become a common disease seen at the urological department. The clinical symptoms are divided into three categories: lower urinary tract obstruction symptom such as weak stream of urine, dysuria and even urine retention; the lower urinary tract irritation symptom, such as frequent micturition, urgent micturition, night urinary increase, retention of urine and urinary incontinence; complications caused by lower urinary tract.

What a Scam! Here’s Why:

One of the most brazen scams we have ever seen is for a product called Vigarexx. Operated by a con man hiding out in Hong Kong who is selling a box of 10 (yes just 10 pills) for $49. The pills are worthless and the scam has been ripping off many men. If you have been tricked by this scam and have purchased this product please email us. You may be entitled to a monetary settlement as class action lawyers are about to bring these crooks to justice. Check out these photos and avoid this scam.

This is What You Get for $59-10 Worthless Pills

To add insult to injury you will NEVER get your money back because this scam is being run out of Hong Kong.

Big name products like Prostavar, Prsotate 5XL and Prosvent spend millions of dollars a year to advertise their prostate pills on TV, radio, newspapers and magazines. All of this publicity creates demand for these products in health food stores where they are very popular. However, some health food store owners actually sell counterfeits of many of the top products.

Pictured here is a health food store on Clay St. in San Francisco. We caught the storeowner selling a counterfeit product, who was claiming to be selling original products. When we confronted her she covered her face and ran away! Of course, this store is not the only store selling counterfeit products. Many other stores and websites sell imitation or counterfeit products. The number one way to tell if you are buying a counterfeit is the price. If the price is well below what it is advertised to be, the odds are that it is a fake.

More than ever before, men over the age of 50 are being bombarded with junk mail from companies selling prostate pills. The mailers are becoming increasing more comprehensive and in many cases extremely convincing (most however, are legitimate and also offer good value). We must state though, that there are a few companies you should avoid like a 3 legged chair.

The Common Elements of Prostate Letter Scams are:

1. The company does not have a website.
2. The company has a doctor pictured and you cannot find any information about the doctor on the Internet.
3. There is a cover letter from someone with a very common name claiming to be the president of the company, and there will be a photo of this person looking very dashing. We have found the photos are purchased from stock photo companies and the names are usually fake.

We are extremely proud to be the industry pioneers of testing products with state of the art laboratory tests. These test in an unbiased manner what is really in the product. You can really find out if what is listed on the products label is in fact what is really in the product. As a result of these tests we were shocked to discover that a large number of products, (including many national brands) were in fact basically worthless. Here is a list of the top 3 "zero ingredients" scams. If you are buying these products your wasting your money.

1. Prostate Support Formula by Real Health Labs -
The laboratory analysis for this product is here in the book for your to see and the results are shockingly poor! We tested three separate batches and all three individual results concurred that the product contained ZERO active ingredients in any of the major categories. That's ZERO. You can walk into just about any major drug store chain and find this well packaged, attractive, seemingly high quality product from this San Diego based company which boasts that it is "Doctor Developed and trusted since 1994." - and the results speak for themselves. Many men have written stating that they tried this product and were very disappointed having seen virtually zero results.

2. Antiiva -
This is a classic example of a prostate product that is completely worthless and tarnishes the reputation of the entire natural health industry. Sold only through mail-orders by the same group of “weasels” who sell Prosta-8 and Prostend (see sections below write ups). They try to trick you into believing this is a legitimate prostate product by using pseudo science, phony testimonials and a “pharmaceutical-sounding” name like Antiiva. It’s not. The lab reports expose this fraudulent product for what it is: a rip-off. If you were unfortunate enough to spend money on this "bottle of dirt" you would not have seen any results. Total scam. If you get a letter in the mail from these jokers throw it in the trash!

Here we have 4 mailers all from the same company all featuring the same doctor saying he created these three different products. And then the last PDF I saved is Mutter-LikeProstaCure. It's also a mailer for a prostate product from a company right next door to the Mutter companies. Its the same company just using a different mail box. One of the ways you can tell these companies are all the same is on the mailing envelope. In the upper right hand corner of the small mailing envelope from New Health Products and also on the ones from Health Advantage and also Raymond D. Mutter M.D. you will see that right below the postage rate of 19 or 20 cents it says ZIP and then a zip code is listed. All three envelopes are all mailed from a postage meter from zip code 20781. Neither New Health Products (10509) of the other two (10512) are from this 20781 zip code. Thats because zip code 20781 is in Hyattsville, Maryland. This means these two companies in a tiny upstate section of New York both just happened to use the EXACT same mailing company out of the thousands of mailing companies in the country. Neither one chose a mailing company in their owner area, they both went out of state? Well is is no coincidence. The real reason they both chose the same mailing company, and the reason these two different companies have the same postage information is because they are in fact ...
THE SAME COMPANY.
