Jarrow Formulas Saw Palmetto - 120 Sgels

Saw Palmetto is the common name for the palm species Serenoa repens. This standardized extract contains 85 - 90% of the active fatty acids and sterols (such as B-sitosterol, lupeol, campesterol, cycloartenol, farnesol and phytol) that are found in berries of this plant. Saw Palmetto extract is a popular remedy for enlarged prostate. Saw palmetto is an herb that has been shown in clinical studies to have an important role in maintaining a healthy prostate.  Saw palmetto (Serenoa repens, sometimes referred to as sabal in Europe) grows naturally in the southeast United States, including Georgia, Mississippi, and particularly Florida. Saw palmetto is not the only herb that has an influence on the prostate gland. Several other herbs and plant compounds that are potentially useful in maintaining a healthy prostate gland including pygeum, stinging nettle, isoflavones such as genistein and daidzein, rye pollen, phytosterols such as sitosterol, and carotenoids such as lycopene.
