Saw Palmetto Information
1) Saw palmetto supports the body's ability to reduce the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT).
2) Saw palmetto is primarily used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), an enlargement of the prostate gland that affects about half of all men older than fifty. BPH is a noncancerous growth of the prostate gland. If the prostate grows in mature men, it pinches the urethra, or urine tube, and problems begin, including painful urination and frequent nighttime trips to the bathroom. Researchers estimate that BPH affects about ten million men in the United States - some in their forties, half of all men older than fifty, and four out of every five men older than eighty.
3) Research conducted in Europe since the beginning of the 1980s shows that saw palmetto reduced by nearly 50 percent the number of times BPH sufferers had to get up to go to the bathroom during the night and significantly reduced difficult urination.
Saw Palmetto Side Effects
Though men taking saw palmetto may develop mild nausea, reduced libido, or erectile dysfunction, the rate of such problems is clinically and statistically far less common than in men taking finasteride drugs to treat BPH symptoms.
There are no known drug interactions. It should generally be avoided in pregnancy and lactation and in small children due to lack of experience and knowledge in these populations and because of the purely theoretical risk of hormonal interference.
