Special Precautions of Rye Grass

• Rye grass seems safe for most people. It can cause side effects such as stomach swelling (distention), heartburn, and nausea.
• Pregnancy and breast-feeding: Not enough is known about the use of rye grass during pregnancy and breast-feeding. Stay on the safe side and avoid use.

The benefits of Rye Grass are

• Symptoms of an enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia, BPH) including increased urinary frequency, increased nighttime urination, constant feeling of needing to urinate, dribbling, painful urination, and decreased urine flow rate. While taking rye grass extract seems to improve symptoms of an enlarged prostate, there are mixed research findings about whether or not it actually affects the size of the prostate. It is not known if rye grass pollen extract works as well as prescription drugs such as finasteride (Proscar) or alpha-blockers. However, rye grass does seem to work about as well as Pygeum and Paraprost, a Japanese prostate remedy containing L-glutamic acid, L-alanine, and aminoacetic acid.
• Shrinking an enlarged prostate, prostate swelling, and pain. Developing evidence suggests that rye grass pollen extract might help these conditions.
