Saw Palmetto
(Serenoa repens), a North American palm, is one of the top selling
herbs in the US and Europe.
A three-year
trial in Germany found that taking 160 mg of saw palmetto extract
twice daily reduced night-time urination in 73% of patients and
improved urinary flow rates significantly. In a double-blind trial,
160 mg of saw palmetto extract taken twice daily was found to treat
BPH as effectively as finasteride (Proscar) without side effects,
such as loss of libido.
In virtually
all the studies carried out on saw palmetto, it is a concentrated
extract that has been used at a level of 160mg twice daily, which is
why we use an extract as opposed to just powdered berries that
consist largely of fibre and sugars. The 160mg extract in each Saw
Palmetto Complex capsule is equal to 1920mg of powdered berry. This
is twelve times more concentrated than the saw palmetto used in many
other products.
Lamberts®
Saw Palmetto Complex contains the concentrated extract of the palm
berries together with amino acids, zinc and the antioxidant
nutrients: vitamin C, vitamin E and beta carotene. |
