The Relationship Between the Prostate & Insulin


Researchers have been writing about an interesting phenomenon in men, described as a male hormonal equivalent to PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome). The main driving factor in PCOS is chronically elevated insulin with all the signs and symptoms of the condition being explained by the influence of insulin on other hormones and signaling molecules, such as testosterone, follicle stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, and sex hormone binding globulin. The “male phenotypic equivalent” of PCOS may include early androgenetic alopecia (a.k.a. male-pattern baldness),erectile dysfunction, and benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH). Let’s take a closer look at this intriguing association between insulin resistance and enlarged prostate.

Insulin is typically thought of as a “blood sugar hormone,” but it has numerous other roles unrelated to lowering blood glucose. It is an anabolic hormone that facilitates tissue growth—an effect seen via its influence on enlarging adipose tissue and playing a role in promoting development of skin tags. The prostate gland is not immune to the growth-promoting effects of insulin. 

It’s not known for certain what, specifically, accounts for the association of hyperinsulinemia and BPH, but numerous studies confirm the existence of the link. One factor may be that elevated insulin decreases synthesis of sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG), and researchers have even posited that low SHBG could be a a marker for insulin resistance.



Patients that complain of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), Erectile Dysfunction or hair loss should consider having their PSA, insulin and glucose levels checked.

Humacel: The Best Defense Against Viruses
Humacel is a product we have recommended for viral infections and immune protection for years. 

The compounds in Humacel inhibit viral attachment to target host cells by blocking the glycoproteins (the “sticky” binding sites) on virus surfaces. The entire process of attachment to a host cell is halted, thereby arresting viral replication. This process also sends a signal to the immune system alerting it of the invader. This kicks the immune system into action against the virus that has been laid vulnerable by this coating.

The compounds in Humacel have been extensively studied and have proven to be effective in the inhibition of numerous viruses, including; coxsackie A9, influenza A, influenza B, herpes simplex virus type 1 and 2, HIV type 1 and 2, cytomegalovirus, Ebstein Barr virus, vaccinia virus, SARS, H5N1, H1N1, hepatitis C and others. (1, 2)

One study found fulvic acids capable of rendering vaccinia virus, HIV and SARS virus non-infectious and demonstrated fulvic acid’s ability to inactivate genetically diverse strains of influenza, including H5N1 (3).
