They are effective against a wide range of Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria, interfering with protein and a proprietary blend of nutritional supplements (comET Therapy) demonstrated significant improvement in symptoms in a group of patients with prostatitis prostatitis (prŏs'tətī`tĭs), inflammation of the prostate gland. Acute prostatitis is usually a result of infection in the urinary tract or infection carried by the blood; in many cases the infection spreads from the urethra and is or Chronic Pelvic Pain Women and Pelvic pain Most women (and some men), at some time in their lives, experience pelvic pain.

Syndrome (CPPS CPPS Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome (associated with prostatitis) CPPS Comisión Permanente del Pacífico Sur (Permanent Commission for the South Pacific) CPPS Society of the Precious Blood ). The observational study, lead by Daniel A. Shoskes, M.D., of Cleveland Clinic Florida, demonstrated a significant decrease in the National Institute of Health Chronic Prostatitis Symptom Index (NIH-CPSI) score in patients with recalcitrant prostatitis who took 3 months of Nanobac's proprietary comET nanobiotic regimen. The results of the study currently appear online and will appear in the print version of the Journal of Urology, Vol. 173, February 2005. The treated group of fifteen patients had prostatic stones and longstanding Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CPPS) symptoms unresponsive to multiple prior conventional therapies. The treatment is designed to eliminate stone forming Nanobacteria. The study found 80% of the patients had a significant improvement in symptoms after 3 months of the comET regimen. Two patients who had been on complete medical disability have returned to work. "The study population represented a truly 'hard core' group of patients who had failed multiple previous therapies including antibiotics, phytotherapy, alpha blockers, neuromuscular therapies and prostatic massage," said Daniel Shoskes, MD, study principal investigator. "A response of such magnitude, even in an uncontrolled study is noteworthy in this patient population." Patients were also evaluated for nanobacterial antigen and antibody positivity. Nine men (60%) had nanobacterial antigen or antibody detected in the blood, six (40%) had nanobacterial antigen in the urine. About CPPS/Prostatitis The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases About NIDDK The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, conducts and supports research on many of the most serious diseases affecting public health. (NIDDK NIDDK National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases ) suggests that Prostatitis might account for up to 25 percent of all office visits by young and middle-aged men for complaints involving the genital and urinary systems.
