Saw Palmetto

Product Details

The premium organic Saw Palmetto berries in this formula supply a dose of fatty acids and sterols similar to the standardized dose used in recent clinical trials. The berries are milled just prior to encapsulation to help preserve freshness. A recent study concluded that the whole berries have additional health benefits which are not seen in the extract. The chart below compares the ingredients supplied by a daily dose of a standardized extract versus whole organic berry. We have analyzed the organic berries several times and have found the results to be consistently around 14% fatty acids. Therefore, at the suggested dose of 4 capsules a day, this provides the 328 mg of fatty acids & sterols, which is just above the clinical dose used in the studies. Moreover, since the material is not altered to resemble a drug (like many of the saw palmetto products that are standardized to 85%), our product supplies all the other beneficial compounds such as ferulic acid, polysaccharides, flavonoids, resins and essential oils.
