SAW PALMETTO
The berries used from saw palmetto assist to help men with BPH...
Saw palmetto, in many cases, relieves the symptoms of prostate enlargement just as well as conventional medication. Prostate growth is stimulated by excess levels of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in the condition known as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Saw palmetto works by inhibiting the production of DHT, stopping DHT from binding in the prostate and increasing the rate at which DHT is metabolized in the gland.
Excess estrogen slows the removal of DHT from the prostate. By inhibiting estrogen saw palmetto also improves BPH. It has been shown in clinical studies to decrease the size of the prostate without altering PSA levels (the hormone that is a marker for prostate concerns).
Saw palmetto’s medicinal qualities are most abundant in fat-soluble extracts of the berries. Saw palmetto herb can vary in quality and medicinal value. Saw palmetto should be taken with meals that contain fat to improve its absorption.
Prior to using saw palmetto men should have a prostate screening and laboratory testing for prostate concerns. Men who use conventional BPH medications should use saw palmetto under the guidance of a health professional. Saw palmetto can theoretically affect the efficacy of oral contraceptives and estrogen.
