The Story behind Men’s Formula. Nature’s Sunshine launched Men’s Formula in the fall of 1994. This effective, natural blend continues to be in high demand more than two and half decades later! Also called the American dwarf palm, saw palmetto was used historically for female reproductive issues and for prostate health. Native Americans, including the Seminoles of Florida, used its berries for food. Saw palmetto berries became part of Western medicine in the 1870s and were officially included in the US Pharmacopoeia in 1906. They were listed in the National Formulary through World War II. The Aztecs and Incas were growing tomatoes in 700 AD. In the 16th century, Europeans visiting North America took tomato plants home for decorating. Lycopene wasn’t discovered until 1876. And we continue to learn more about the valuable health benefits of this carotenoid. Our lycopene comes from non-GMO tomatoes that are grown in the US from a particular plant breed that yields the best lycopene.
