Prunus Africana Bark Powder
Prunus Africana Bark Powder — Africa's Premier Prostate & Anti-Inflammatory Botanical
Prunus africana, commonly known as African Cherry or Red Stinkwood (Muiri in Kikuyu), is one of East Africa's most scientifically validated and highly prized medicinal trees. Native to the montane forests of Kenya, Uganda, and Cameroon, its bark has been used for centuries in traditional African medicine and is now globally recognized for its clinically proven benefits for prostate health. Our Prunus Africana Bark Powder is ethically wildcrafted, carefully dried, and finely milled to preserve its full spectrum of phytosterols, triterpenes, ferulic acid esters, and fatty acids.
Key Benefits
- Prostate health (BPH) — clinically studied and widely used in Europe as a natural treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH); reduces urinary frequency, urgency, and weak flow
- Anti-inflammatory — ferulic acid esters and triterpenes reduce prostate and systemic inflammation
- Hormonal balance — phytosterols inhibit 5-alpha reductase, reducing DHT levels linked to prostate enlargement and hair loss
- Antioxidant protection — neutralizes free radicals and supports cellular health
- Kidney & urinary support — supports healthy urinary tract function and reduces bladder discomfort
- Anti-tumour properties — preliminary research suggests potential in supporting prostate cancer prevention
