You’ve tried cutting out water after 6 PM. You’ve tried the herbal supplements. You’ve listened to your doctor say, "It’s just part of getting older."

But they were wrong.

If you are waking up more than once a night, you aren't just losing sleep. You are triggering a dangerous biological reaction inside your body.

A new report from the Prostate Journal has uncovered a shocking truth about men's health.

It turns out, every time your sleep is interrupted, your body releases a flood of stress hormones. Just like a dry sponge soaking up water, these hormones cause your prostate to swell by a staggering 78.5% overnight.

Scientists have dubbed this "The Tomato Effect."

• At 10 PM: You go to bed with a prostate the size of a walnut.

• At 2 AM: After waking up just once, the stress response begins.

• At 4 AM: Your prostate inflates into a giant "beefsteak tomato," crushing your bladder and forcing you out of bed again.

This is why your symptoms get worse as the night goes on. You are unknowingly re-inflating the problem every time you wake up.
