Herb Valley Saw Palmetto 1800mg 60 Capsules

Saw Palmetto is a type of palm tree, also known as Dwarf Palm and its primary medicinal value lies in the oily compounds found in its berries.

Saw palmetto is believed to inhibit the actions of Dihydrotestosterone or DHT (a potent form of testosterone) on the prostate that causes prostate enlargement and interference with urinary flow. Among the main constituents of Saw Palmetto are fatty acids and sterols. The fatty acids are purported to be responsible for testosterone-inhibiting effects within the prostate.

Saw Palmetto is shown to improve urinary flow and reduce the frequency and urgency of urination in men with prostate enlargemen (benign prostatic hyperplasia, or BPH).

The excessive presence of DHT has also been linked to androgenetic alopecia and hence Saw Palmetto may also be beneficial in me suffering from this condition.

Therapeutic Benefits

• Relieves symptoms of medically diagnosed Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy such as frequent urination and painful urination.
