7 Things Nobody Tells Men About Getting Up at Night
It starts with once. Then it is twice, and the walk down the hallway becomes part of the night. Here is what is actually going on, and what a man can do about it.
2:07 a.m. The house is quiet. You know the way without turning on the light.
Most men never mention it. They call it age, drink a little less after dinner, and get on with it. We make absorbent underwear for men, so this is our subject all day long. Here are seven things we think every man over 50 should have been told.
-
1
It becomes more common with every decade
Getting up at night is one of the first changes men notice after 50, and it becomes more frequent with each decade. Common does not mean nothing can be done. It means you are far from alone.
-
2
Drinking less after dinner helps, but it is rarely the whole story
Stopping fluids two hours before bed is sensible. So is going easy on coffee and alcohol in the evening. Most men who try it get a small improvement and then hit a floor. Something else is going on.
-
3
The bladder and the prostate depend on very small blood vessels
Both are fed by a dense web of tiny vessels. Using Doppler ultrasound, researchers have measured lower blood flow in the bladder area of older adults who report more urinary bother. Tissue that receives less blood becomes more sensitive.
-
1
The signal that relaxes them fades with age
Nitric oxide tells blood vessels to open, and tells the smooth muscle around the prostate and the neck of the bladder to relax. The body makes less of it every decade after 40. Nobody feels it happen.
-
2
The nights rarely come alone
The same men usually notice a flow that is slower and never quite finished, and less energy by mid-afternoon. Three signs that arrive in the same years, with common ground: circulation.

The classic prostate pill looks at one piece
Saw palmetto has its place. But a formula that only brings prostate nutrients leaves out the circulation side entirely. It is one reason so many men take it for two months and shrug.

There are things you can do tonight, and one you can do every morning
Tonight: last drink two hours before bed, put your feet up for an hour in the late afternoon, and take your time in the bathroom before you turn in. Every morning: a formula that covers both sides, circulation and prostate. That is why we built Full Flow.
What is in Full Flow
Circulation nutrients: cayenne pepper, beet root, aged garlic, vitamins K2 and D3. Prostate and bladder nutrients: saw palmetto, beta-sitosterol, pumpkin seed oil, nettle root, lycopene, zinc. All of it in an oil-based softgel, every dose printed on the pouch. Three softgels with breakfast.

What exactly is in Full Flow?
Per daily serving of 3 softgels: beet root extract 500 mg, cayenne pepper extract (2.5 mg capsaicinoids), aged garlic extract 300 mg, vitamin K2 100 mcg and D3 25 mcg, saw palmetto extract 320 mg, beta-sitosterol 130 mg, pumpkin seed oil 500 mg, nettle root extract 300 mg, lycopene 10 mg, zinc 15 mg. No proprietary blend.
How long before I can judge it?
Nutrients work gradually and every man responds differently. We suggest 90 days of daily use, which is exactly how long the guarantee runs.
Can I take it with my medication?
Talk to your doctor first if you take blood pressure medication, blood thinners (the formula contains vitamin K2 and garlic) or prostate medication. Full Flow is a dietary supplement. It does not replace a treatment or your regular check-up.
Will the cayenne upset my stomach?
The amount is small and it is suspended in oil inside the softgel, so you do not taste it. Some men feel a light warmth. Taking the softgels with breakfast is the simple way to avoid it.
What if it is not for me?
Take it every day for 90 days. If it is not for you, write to us and we refund your order.
