Modere Prostate Health: saw palmetto, pumpkin seed oil and beta-sitosterols for Australian men, 60 capsules
The wellness verdict
Modere Prostate Health is a 60-capsule men’s health formula combining saw palmetto berry extract (5-alpha-reductase inhibitor), pumpkin seed oil and beta-sitosterols (phytosterols) to support prostate health and healthy urinary flow. The botanical approach to the hormonal and inflammatory dimensions of prostate health for Australian men from their mid-40s onward. Back at Shaklee Australia.
Saw palmetto + pumpkin seed oil + beta-sitosterols — prostate and urinary support
A 60-capsule men’s health formula combining saw palmetto berry extract with pumpkin seed oil and beta-sitosterols (phytosterols). Supports prostate health and healthy urinary flow for men from their mid-40s onward. The saw palmetto + beta-sitosterol combination addresses both the hormonal and inflammatory dimensions of prostate health support.
5-alpha-reductase inhibition — the primary botanical mechanism for DHT-driven prostate changes
Saw palmetto’s primary mechanism is inhibition of 5-alpha-reductase — the enzyme that converts testosterone to DHT, the androgen that drives prostate tissue growth. Reducing DHT’s effect on prostate tissue is the same mechanism targeted by pharmaceutical 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors, through a natural botanical route.
60 capsules — prostate and urinary health support for Australian men, back at Shaklee
Prostate health is a natural part of ageing for Australian men. This formula addresses both the hormonal and phytosterol dimensions of prostate support. Allow a minimum of 4–8 weeks for urinary improvements. 100% money-back guarantee.

Prostate changes with age: what’s actually happening and why it matters
From approximately age 40, the prostate begins a gradual process of benign growth (benign prostatic hyperplasia, or BPH) driven by the accumulation of DHT — the androgen produced from testosterone by the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase. By age 60, more than 50% of Australian men have some degree of BPH; by age 85 this rises to over 90%. The prostate’s anatomical location around the urethra means that even modest growth can compress the urethral passage, leading to familiar urinary symptoms: reduced flow, incomplete emptying, increased frequency and disrupted sleep from nighttime urination.
Pharmaceutical 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors (finasteride, dutasteride) are effective but carry side effects including sexual dysfunction and depression that many men find unacceptable. Saw palmetto’s 5-alpha-reductase inhibiting properties provide a botanical alternative that addresses the same hormonal mechanism with a more favourable side effect profile, particularly when combined with pumpkin seed oil and beta-sitosterols that add anti-inflammatory and phytosterol-based prostate support.
Formula ingredients
| Ingredient | What it brings |
|---|---|
| Saw palmetto berry extract (Serenoa repens) | Primary active ingredient; inhibits 5-alpha-reductase to reduce DHT production; supports prostate tissue health and healthy urinary flow; well-studied in multiple clinical trials for BPH symptom support |
| Pumpkin seed oil (Cucurbita pepo) | Rich source of beta-sitosterols and phytosterols; traditional European herbal medicine use for bladder and prostate health; zinc-rich which supports prostate cell health |
| Beta-sitosterols (phytosterols) | Plant sterols that reduce DHT’s effects on prostate cells and reduce prostatic inflammatory signalling; independent clinical evidence for urinary symptom improvement in BPH |
How the formula supports prostate health
Saw palmetto inhibits 5-alpha-reductase to reduce DHT
By reducing the conversion of testosterone to DHT, saw palmetto reduces the primary androgenic driver of prostate tissue growth. This is a genuine mechanism that targets the hormonal root cause rather than just managing symptoms.
Beta-sitosterols reduce prostatic inflammation
Beyond the hormonal mechanism, beta-sitosterols reduce the inflammatory environment in prostatic tissue that contributes to BPH symptoms and urinary discomfort. This dual hormonal + anti-inflammatory approach addresses prostate health from two complementary directions.
Pumpkin seed oil contributes zinc and phytosterols for prostate cell health
The prostate has one of the highest zinc concentrations of any organ in the body. Zinc is essential for prostate cell function and testosterone metabolism. Pumpkin seed oil provides zinc alongside phytosterols that directly support healthy prostate tissue.
What to expect
Weeks 4–8
Initial improvements in urinary flow and frequency are often noticed within 4–8 weeks of consistent daily use. Nighttime urination frequency is often the first symptom to improve.
3 months (full assessment)
The AU Shaklee description recommends a minimum of 3 months of daily use to fully assess the formula’s effect. Prostate changes with age are slow; so is the reversal of urinary symptoms.
Tips for Prostate Health
Take with food for best absorption of fat-soluble phytosterols
Saw palmetto’s active compounds (fatty acids and sterols) are fat-soluble. Taking the capsules with a meal that contains fat — especially olive oil, avocado or nuts — significantly improves absorption compared to taking on an empty stomach.
Commit to a minimum 3-month trial
Short trials of 4–6 weeks are insufficient to fully assess prostate-related botanical formulas. The tissues involved change slowly; the treatment effects are correspondingly gradual.
Discuss with your GP alongside regular PSA screening
Prostate Health is a supportive supplement, not a medical treatment. Men over 50 should have regular PSA blood tests and digital rectal examinations. Saw palmetto does not interfere with PSA testing (unlike finasteride, which lowers PSA).
Safety
Men’s health supplement for adult male use.
Drug interactions. Saw palmetto may interact with blood thinners (warfarin, aspirin, clopidogrel). Consult your GP if you take anticoagulant or antiplatelet medications.
Prostate cancer. Do not use as a substitute for medical treatment if you have diagnosed prostate cancer. Discuss any supplement use with your urologist or oncologist.
Hormonal medications. If you take testosterone therapy or other hormonal medications, consult your GP before adding saw palmetto-based supplements.
Always read the label. If symptoms persist, consult your healthcare professional.
FAQ — Modere Prostate Health Australia
What is Modere Prostate Health?
A 60-capsule men’s health supplement formulated with saw palmetto berry extract, pumpkin seed oil, beta-sitosterols and other valuable phytosterols. Designed to support prostate health and healthy urinary flow, particularly relevant for men from their mid-40s onward as the prostate naturally changes with age.
What is saw palmetto?
Serenoa repens is a dwarf palm tree native to the southeastern United States. Its berry extract is the most extensively studied botanical ingredient for prostate health support. Saw palmetto works primarily by inhibiting 5-alpha-reductase — the enzyme that converts testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), the primary driver of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
What are beta-sitosterols?
Beta-sitosterols are plant sterols (phytosterols) found in pumpkin seed oil and other plant sources. They support prostate health by reducing inflammatory signalling in prostatic tissue and reducing DHT’s effects on prostate cells. Beta-sitosterol has its own clinical evidence base for urinary symptom relief in BPH, independent of saw palmetto.
What role does pumpkin seed oil play?
Pumpkin seed oil provides a rich source of beta-sitosterols and other phytosterols alongside phytoestrogens and carotenoids. It has traditional use in European herbal medicine for bladder and prostate health, particularly for supporting healthy urinary flow.
How long does it take to see results?
Prostate-related urinary improvements from saw palmetto-based formulas typically take a minimum of 4–8 weeks of consistent daily use to assess. The AU Shaklee description notes a minimum of 3 months for the full effect.
